Chicago Police Open Internal Investigation Into Jussie Smollett Case

The Chicago Police have opened an internal investigation into the Jussie Smollett case.

In a statement to FOX News on Thursday, a spokesperson for the force confirmed that "an internal investigation has been opened."

"I would like to point out that a lot of the information out there was inaccurate and there were numerous agencies involved in this investigation," the statement continued. "As a standard procedure when there are allegations of information being leaked, an internal investigation has been opened and we are also looking at our vulnerabilities."

In January, Smollett told police that he was attacked by two masked men as he was walking home from a sandwich shop in the early morning on Jan. 29. The actor, who is black and gay, said the masked men beat him, made derogatory comments and yelled, "This is MAGA country" — an apparent reference to President Trump's campaign slogan, "Make America Great Again" — before fleeing.

But that isn't how police say it all went down.
