Neither Jussie Smollett nor his attorney have backtracked from his original account that he was the target of a racist and homophobic attack in January. The “Empire” actor spoke to reporters Tuesday after a court hearing in which his attorneys say prosecutors dropped all 16 felony counts alleging Smollett staged the attack. Prosecutors haven’t explained why they made the surprise decision and haven’t said if they still maintain Smollett orchestrated the incident.
