Chicago is vowing a civil suit against Jussie Smollett after the "Empire" actor "refused to reimburse" the city for the cost of investigating his controversial case.

In a statement obtained by Fox News, the city's law department said on Thursday that Smollett, 36, "has refused to reimburse the City of Chicago for the cost of police overtime spent investigating his false police report on Jan. 29, 2019." The statement said that the law department "is now drafting a civil complaint that will be filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County. "

Per the statement, the department aims to file in the near future, and will "pursue the full measure of damages allowed under the ordinance."

My Ex B-I-L dated her in the late 70’s between his first Divorce and before he met my Wife’s Sister.

I think he was taking a break from “dating” young West L.A. Cocktail Waitresses at the time.

I remember Morgan Fairchild, your comment led me to look her up. She still looks HOT ! (p) I used to have crush on Maryanne on Gilligans Island when I was 8. She still looks pretty good too.

It will cost them more to sue him than they'll collect in damages anyway.

There's no basis for the city to sue him. They should have included a restitution payment from Smollett to the city as a condition of dropping the charges.

No. Analogy is a non sequitur.

The chances of the new mayor following through with this is right up there with the chance that Morgan Fairchild will knocking on my door this evening

She's not what she used to be (who is?), but it still seems unlikely she will be knocking on your door this evening. :-)

The feds should lock this deviant up; these freaks routinely thumb their noses at us normals and get away with it.

Tiresome...

Did I miss it? Was reimbursement part of his deal?

It would be nice if it were. Broken contract is no contract
