The charges stem from Smollett’s assertion that he was the target of a racist and homophobic attack in January 2019 in Chicago.
Jussie Smollett has been indicted in relation to the alleged attack he said he experienced in January.
The charges were dropped in March 2019 with little explanation, angering police officials and then-Mayor Rahm Emanuel.
Smollett, who is black and gay, was originally charged the following month with disorderly conduct for allegedly staging the attack and lying about it to investigators.
