The ex-chief of staff for former first lady Michelle Obama says she approached Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx regarding the Jussie Smollett case on behalf of the actor's family
A city official says Chicago is seeking $130,000 from"Empire" actor Jussie Smollett to cover the costs of the investigation into his reported beating, which police say was staged.
Patricia Brown Holmes said Thursday that Smollett's defense team supports"the court files being preserved" in the now-sealed criminal case that accused the actor of filing a false police report. Emanuel spoke Thursday on WGN radio, saying the Chicago Police Department is figuring out how much money it spent investigating Smollett's allegation that he was the victim of a racial and homophobic attack.
Tchen says her"sole activity" was to put the prosecutor in touch with"an alleged victim's family." Tchen says the Smollett family"had concerns about how the investigation was being characterized in public."
