Actor Jussie Smollett has been indicted on several counts, reportedly stemming from him falsely claiming to be the victim of a racist and homophobic attack. He was previously indicted over the hoax, but the charges were dropped.
The charges against Smollett were filed by special prosecutor Dan Webb and confirmed by the Cook County Clerk’s Office on Tuesday, according to a Chicago ABC affiliate. While the exact charges remain unknown, WGN reported that the actor was indicted on six counts, including disorderly conduct.
