Cook County state's attorney Kim Foxx inadvertently gave away the game what's really behind the bizarre dropping of charges and sealing of court records of the slam-dunk case put together by Chicago police on Jussie Smollett's fake hate crime report when she explained to two reporters for Chicago public radio station WBEZ in an interview:

Whether it really happened or not was of no consequence at all -- either to himself, to his supporters, or (apparently) to the U.S. Supreme Court.
I can see this whole nation and its entire social order unraveling very, very quickly.

They also believe in narrative based justice.
