Suburban Police Chiefs, FOP Give Foxx Vote of No Confidence Vote in Jussie Smollet Case
The Chicago Tribune ^ | April 5, 2019

Posted on 04/05/2019 6:16:04 AM PDT by PBRCat

A group of suburban police chiefs joined with the Chicago Fraternal Order of Police to give Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx a vote of no confidence Thursday in the latest fallout over her office’s abrupt dismissal of charges against “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett.

FOP President Kevin Graham and some 30 suburban police leaders took it a step further at a news conference, calling on Foxx to resign from her elected office.

“People standing around me can give you countless examples of how Ms. Foxx’s lack of prosecution has cost our members and police officers … an enormous amount of problems,” Graham said. “Not to mention the fact that the people in Cook County are depending on prosecutors to put people in jail and charge them accordingly.”

It really does not matter. Foxx will “maintain her innocence” and tough it out.

“Soros still has full confidence in Ms Redd Foxx.”

Wondering if we can bring RICO charges against Soros and every elected official who took money from him.

“People standing around me can give you countless examples of how Ms. Foxx’s lack of prosecution has cost our members and police officers“

She got an off duty police officer killed a few weeks back. Low bail, reduced charges, felon in possession of a firearm charge dropped, and he was out on the street.

Just days later he murdered an off duty Chicago cop who was sitting in his car with friends.

The perp did it because the dead offficer “looked Hispanic”. The Smollett thing is just the latest outrage coming out of the joke of Cook County “Justice”.

And just wait until the weather warms up. The first couple of 70 degree plu weekends are going to see a wave of mayhem and murders this city hasn’t seen since that crooked retard Daley was in office.

And the cops aren’t going to lift a finger to stop it and I don’t blame them one single bit. They’re going to concentrate on doing their shifts and making it home alive.

She now has significant notoriety, she is a known adovocate for social justice, and exhibits disdain for law enforcement. She is a virtual shoe in for the mayorship.

Yeah, good thing she's a Dem. A Repub would have resigned by now ("in disgrace" the media would say) or been hounded from office...

Sure, just like they all said about Preckwinkle, right?

Besides, she has her sights set much higher than that.

FOP President Kevin Graham said the union’s issues with Foxx’s office “didn’t start with Jussie Smollett.”

Who would have guessed?
