Kim Foxx Never ‘Formally’ Recused Herself from Jussie Smollett Case
Breitbart ^ | 3/27/19 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 03/27/2019 4:39:52 PM PDT by Revel

Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx never “formally” recused herself from the Jussie Smollett case ― contrary to the Chicago prosecutor’s public announcement that she had done so ― a spokesperson for the prosecutor confirms.

In a statement Wednesday, Cook County State’s Attorney spox Kiera Ellis said Foxx “did not formally recuse herself or the [State’s Attorney] Office based on any actual conflict of interest. As a result, she did not have to seek the appointment of a special prosecutor.”

According to Ellis, Foxx’s announcement that she had recused herself “was a colloquial use of the term rather than in its legal sense.”

“Instead, in an abundance of caution, Fox informally separated herself from the decision-making over the case and left it to her Assistants, as happens in 99.9% of all cases handled by the Office,” the spokesperson added.

Prosecutors abruptly dropped all charges against Jussie Smollett on Tuesday after the Empire actor accused of faking a racist, anti-gay attack on himself agreed to let the city keep his $10,000 in bail. However, he maintained his innocence and insisted he was attacked.

What will be hilarious is when Smollett’s lawyer tries to sue the Chicago PD. All the information will come out in discovery and I bet that lawyer will back out.

None are so blinded by their lies that they believe it’s the truth.

When it comes to attorneys working for or connected to the Obamas, Clintons, and Democrat Party leadership/organizations, that they are corrupt, unethical, liars, dishonest, anti-conservative, and ideologically to the Far Left.

After accepting that fact of reality, you will understand the corruption of Kim Foxx and Tina Tschen, plus Cheryl ###, Obama’s White House counsel, and the rest of the legal scum around him and the Clintons, esp. Marc Elias, Perkins Coie, etc.

I sending yourself a hate crime letter breaking some kind of Federal law?

Probably using the US Mail to aid in filing a false police report is.
