Attorneys for Jussie Smollett dont want a special prosecutor to investigate how the Cook County States attorneys office handled the Empire actors criminal case.
Smolletts Los Angeles-based lawyers on Thursday filed a motion opposing former state Appellate Court Judge Sheila OBriens request for a court-appointed special prosecutor to probe the abrupt dismissal last month of criminal charges against the actor for allegedly staging a fake hate crime attack near his Streeterville apartment.
The appointment of a special prosecutor would result in a duplication of effort at the expense of taxpayers, the petition states.
The petition states that a judicial investigation can be costly, pointing to the $31 million or more spent on Robert Muellers investigation of allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election and obstruction of justice by President Donald Trump.

This is very telling! Bet it has nothing to do with cost to taxpayers and more to do with the corruption it will uncover.
Who cares what they want.
Why not? Oh, right. Because the trail leads right to rising demonicRAT “star” Kamala Harris’s front door.
It’s an attempt to obstruct justice, no?
Justice is expensive. The people demand and deserve justice.
“Jussie Smollett Lawyers: Don’t Appoint a Special Prosecutor to Probe Kim Foxx’s Office”
don’t see where they have standing, but the more money Juicy’s lawyers pizz away, the better ...
Because Jussies lawyers care so much about the taxpayers.
A black fag and a black female lawyer?
What, are you nuts?
Short ropes and lamp-posts , work for me ;)
How does he have standing?
If the Smollett lawyers object to a special prosecutor then I am for it. Lawyers have one thing in mind and that is to get their client off. If they think a special prosecutor would find something that would interfere with that end, they will oppose it. Let us have a special prosecutor.
