Remember hate hoaxer Jussie Smollett, who accused two people of hanging a noose around his neck and yelling “this is MAGA country” in Downtown Chicago on a sub freezing night in 2019? Karma has come back to bite Smollett big time, as he has been indicted by a special prosecutor for fake hate crime charges.

Former “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett was indicted Tuesday by a special prosecutor in Chicago investigating allegations he bogusly reported being the victim of a January 2019 hate-crime attack, officials said.
Smollett, 37, was indicted by special prosecutor Dan Webb, who was appointed by a Cook County judge to continue looking into his false allegations after the Cook County State’s Attorney Office dropped all charges against the actor, a source close to Smollett told ABC news.
The Cook County Clerk’s Office confirmed to ABC station WLS-TV in Chicago that Smollett had been indicted.
