Breitbart ^ | August 10, 2020 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 08/11/2020 6:11:15 AM PDT by lowbridge

Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx has dropped over 25,000 felony cases, including charges of murder and the alleged hate crime hoax from former Empire star Jussie Smollett, according to an analysis released by the Chicago Tribune on Monday.

The Chicago Tribune reported:

During Foxx’s first three years as the county’s top prosecutor, her office dropped all charges against 29.9% of felony defendants, a dramatic increase over her predecessor, the Tribune found. For the last three years of Anita Alvarez’s tenure, the rate was 19.4%.

In all, a total of 25,183 people had their felony cases dismissed under Foxx through November 2019, up from 18,694 for a similar period under Alvarez.

[…]

For the three-year period analyzed, Foxx’s office dropped 8.1% of homicide cases, compared with 5.3% under Alvarez, the Tribune found. Under Foxx, the office dropped 9.5% of felony sex crime cases; the rate was 6.5% for Alvarez.

Judge Sullivan sees himself as a Prosecutor of Michael Flynn.
DA Foxx sees herself as the Felons’ best friend, making sure no prosecutions happen.

The world is upside down.

it’s society’s fault + restorative justice + indifference to natural rights + evolutionary law + subjectivism + relativism (no absolutes) = punishment should be inflicted on society and not on the criminal

Someone should correlate that data with the skin color of the defendants.

".... Chicago's top prosecutor, Kim Foxx...."

Should be Chicago's chief CRIMINAL ENABLER, not prosecutor.

Black Lives Matter members in Chicago held a rally on Monday to support the more than 100 arrested last night following widespread looting and rioting that caused at least $60 million in property damage and saw 13 police officers injured, according to a report.

The rally was organized by Black Lives Matter Chicago and was held at a police station in the South Loop where organizers say individuals are currently being held in custody. At least one organizer called the looting tantamount to “reparations.”

“I don’t care if someone decides to loot a Gucci or a Macy’s or a Nike store, because that makes sure that person eats,” said Ariel Atkins, a BLM organizer, according to NBC Chicago. “That makes sure that person has clothes.”

The Chicago Tribune ain’t no right-wing source. This is significant. Someone at Democrat HQ has determined it’s time to throw her under the bus.

What Soros wants, Soros gets (using LOTS of money)

Every time I hear that the Republicans are the Party of money, I have to laugh......the DEMS are the Party of MONEY. Money is their God. That and voter fraud. It is a bad combination for those of us who love our Country.

The leftists are twisting the rope with which the majority of voters will - metaphorically — hang them.

The Democrat crime policy comes straight out of the Marxist-Leninist manual. Don’t arrest, don’t prosecute, release prisoners. When complete power is achieved and solidified, the mass incarcerations begin.

Not upside down.

In King Sullivan’s world,
they BOW to their lord Soros,
and execute the innocent,
and eat their children.

DOJ dropped charges against Flynn but the deep state law machine would not allow it.
