Of Course She Does

Guess who doesn't want a Special Prosecutor looking too closely at her office?

• Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx’s office opposes appointing a special prosecutor to investigate the dismissal of charges against “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett.
  
  Foxx had recused herself from the case after saying she communicated with a relative of Smollett’s in the early phases of the investigation but a filing by prosecutors Tuesday argued that Foxx did not have an actual conflict of interest.
  
  Prosecutors also echoed Smollett’s attorneys in arguing that the appointment is unnecessary, since the county inspector general’s office — at Foxx’s request — is already investigating the controversy.
  
  Foxx’s office also sought to quash subpoenas seeking her appearance at a hearing Thursday on the proposed appointment.

Transparency and Accountability? That's for other people, not Crimesha.
