Jussie Smollett Trial Set To Start in November

• The trial against former Empire star Jussie Smollett is set to begin next month.
• A judge denied a motion to dismiss the trial against Smollett and his 2019 hate crime hoax. 
• Jussie has been charged with disorderly conduct after prosecutors say he allegedly staged an attack against him back in 2019. 
• On top of that, Smollett faces a lawsuit from the City of Chicago to the tune of $130,000 to cover the cost of police investigating the alleged hoax.
