Jussie Smollett Countersues City of Chicago


Earlier this year the City of Chicago filed a lawsuit against actor Jussie Smollett after the Cook County prosecutor elected to drop all charges against him after it was determined that he was not being truthful about a hate crime attack he claims to have suffered [click here if you missed that]. 

Jussie just filed a countersuit...
 
According to reports Jussie is suing the City of Chicago for malicious prosecution that caused humiliation and extreme distress.

In his argument Jussie claims the $10,0000 he was ordered to pay the city should prevent them suing him for damages.

The City is seeking $130,106 to cover the cost of the investigation.
