After being cleared of all charges in his attack case, Empire actor Jussie Smollett told reporters outside a Chicago courthouse that he “just wants to get back to work and move on with my life” and continue fighting for justice and equality. But his attorney gave a firm “next question” when asked if Smollett would take any legal recourse against the city of Chicago or the two brothers who claimed the actor took part in a hoax.
Smollett’s attorney, Patricia Brown Holmes, told reporters outside the courtroom that her client is “a good, solid citizen of the city of Chicago” and that the money paid by Smollett to the Osundairo brothers was for nutrition and physical training, “exactly what Jussie said.”
The brief press conference took place on a bizarre day in a bizarre case, with all criminal charges against Smollett dismissed and his record expunged.
