Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx’s office opposes appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the dismissal of charges against “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett.

Foxx had recused herself from the case after saying she communicated with a relative of Smollett’s in the early phases of the investigation but a filing by prosecutors Tuesday argued that Foxx did not have an actual conflict of interest.

Prosecutors also echoed Smollett’s attorneys in arguing that the appointment is unnecessary, since the county inspector general’s office — at Foxx’s request — is already investigating the controversy.

The defendent makes a recommendation. That could be something new.

Smollett is the LEAST of it.

Which is the real reason she opposes a special counsel.

I wonder why Mizz White Girl Haircut don’t want a Special prosecutor. Hmmm, what could it be?

I’m not even sure why anyone would ask her if she wants one or not, just appoint one, Foxx is a criminal.

I am not sure, but could this be a Foxx meet henhouse moment? 😁

You know it. The Smollett incident brought on attention she would have done better without. If there can be an objective investigation, would expect all sorts of skeletons to fall out of her closet. The help that has been fleeing from her office indicates as much.

"I wonder why Mizz White Girl Haircut.."

I never really thought about that until reading your post. Isn't that called "racial/cultural appropriation" or some such whiny thing? Time to protest all the black beauty parlors.

Signage: NOT STRAIGHT, DON'T APPROPRIATE!

Yes, that’s exactly what it is.
