The Illinois state attorney's office dropped criminal charges against "Empire" star Jussie Smollett on Tuesday.
Smollett had been arrested on disorderly conduct charges for allegedly staging a phony attack and claiming he was the victim of a hate crime.
"Today, all criminal charges against Jussie Smollett were dropped and his record has been wiped clean of the filing of this tragic complaint against him," Smollett's legal team said in a statement Tuesday, according to NBC. "Jussie was attacked by two people he was unable to identify on January 29th."

I know theres already a mega thread on this but it's a cluster fuck and I feel like this deserves it's own thread. Fucking pathetic and disgusting.
