The city is preparing to sue the actor after he missed the deadline to pay.

Joe Magats, the first assistant state attorney in Illinois, told ABC Chicago station WLS, "We stand behind the investigation and the facts revealed," and, "We believe he did what he was charged with doing," and, "This was not an exoneration. To say that he was exonerated by us or anyone is not true."

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said dropping the charges against Smollett "is without a doubt a whitewash of justice." A federal investigation into a threatening letter investigators say was part of the hoax is still underway. "Empire" is produced by 21st Century Fox, now part of the Walt Disney Co., also the parent company of ABC News.

Smollett is guilty of committing a hate crime for personal gain during black history month. Serious low life. Why should taxpayers have to pay for this farce when the clown should be in jail.

LOOK at all the free national media attention he gets! Wow. Worth it's weight in gold $$$.

I love this pic. He's holding his heart and signaling to his 2 fans that he loves them.

Just 1 day of work for him anyways.

The man that Disgraced the whole Chicago Police Force.. I see is still at it. He better hope he Never Really Needs a Cop...

After dismissing the charges against him and expunging his record, good luck getting him to pay up, Chicago.

BLACK LIES MATTER

He didn't do it😂😂😂😂

Chris Rick destroyed this tool. Next?

But he said he didn't do anything wrong. Why does he owe anything? 🤷🏼‍♀️

JussieSmollett Owes all of us A TRUTHFUL accounting. He is garbage in my eyes right now.

Jussie patting his chest makes me 🤮 Hope the lawsuit is successful. He needs to pay.

Jussie, 'can we talk' Everybody loves a humbling story. Please fess-up, you know, America will understand that you were in a dark-dark-place & were reaching out for help. Although it's peculiar to us, to you, it was desperation. Think about it. . .

How much you all want to bet Smollett's fees get deferred?

like all super rich they think there above the law

And the current Mayor Rahm Emanuel owes the Black neighborhoods back from stealing millions of dollars of their Tiff tax money for redevelopment on the north east side of Chicago and giving it to the Very Rich in the Gold Coast.
