The reason the case wasn’t taken up by the FBI was because the Chicago PD refused Foxx’s request to bring them in.
That's not accurate.

Per the article...“Spoke to the Superintendent Johnson,” Foxx said in an email to Tchen on Feb. 1 obtained by reporters. “I convinced him to Reach out to FBI to ask that they take over the investigation.”

He apparently did accommodate her request. She "convinced him" cough, cough (threatened him) /supposition on my part to do it which means that he did request them to come in and they denied the request. (which is why he is being tried in Cook County Criminal Court instead of a Federal Court)

Okay, that’s different than what I read yesterday. The article I read said her request was denied and she was made to recuse herself from the entire matter. Who the heck knows.

Which is probably why someone at CPD leaked that Smollett’s storyline was falling apart. They had to get the truth out in the open before Obama/Tchen/Foxx/Johnson had a chance to control (bury) the narrative.
