Seems hoaxster Jussie Smollett isn’t the angel the media portrayed him to be, even before his hoax was exposed. Back in 2007, Smollett pleaded no contest to DUI, driving without a license and providing false information to law enforcement, the L.A. City Attorney’s office confirmed to NBC News. Seems criminal history in this ass repeats itself. Karma is a bitch.

Smollett, now 36, was sentenced to two years probation and a choice of a fine or jail in the 2007 case, an L.A. City Attorney’s spokesman told NBC News.
The case is coming to light as Chicago police investigate whether Smollett made up a story about being the victim of a racially, motivated hate crime. Chicago police have requested LAPD provide them information about the 2007 arrest, according to multiple law enforcement sources familiar the investigation.
Chicago police officials say they have shifted their focus from a hate crime investigation to one of filing a false report.
