“Judge Michael Toomin said that Foxx’s unorthodox decision to drop all charges against Smollett absent an admission of guilt was within her authority”

Oh really? So he’s letting Foxx off the hook for the most outrages part of this. It’s the Chicago way.

That is one of the tricks of such money-and-power brokers.

My guess: go through the motions, then cover it up.

Nothing will happen to anyone. In fact, before it’s all over, she’ll be getting an apology.

Special prosecutors are hired to make problems go away. Nothing more. I thought the feds were looking into this. After all... Federal crimes were committed. But they have been totally quite since Trump said they are looking into it.

Hate to be a Debbie downer but...

This will disappear like a fart in the wind. Nobody will ever see a day in jail.

I know Booker is on the left but who’s the guy on the right? A famous Boxer maybe?

Michelle Obama’s former chief of staff, Tina Tchen, asked Foxx to persuade Chicago police superintendent Eddie Johnson to turn the case over to the FBI.

Well isn’t that special.

This tells you all that you need to know about the FBI.

16 felony charges.....16!!!
ALL of em dropped.
IF it had been me, you or any other member of the “unwashed masses”, we’d be rotting in a jail cell probably never to see daylight again.
Juicy ucan Smellit, and those that got him off, all need to be arrested, tried and sent to prison for a long, long time.
Until that happens, there is no justice in this country.
