- Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot on Monday convened the first of two days of meetings with city, county and federal law enforcement officials to hammer out details of their joint plan to combat the traditional surge in summer violence.
The first meeting was scheduled to take place at Chicago Police headquarters at 35th Street and South Michigan Avenue. It includes Chicago Police Supt. Eddie Johnson, Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, State’s Attorney Kim Foxx and U.S. Attorney John Lausch.
Whoops! Spotted your problem. Right there in the second paragraph:
- ....State’s Attorney Kim Foxx....
She's the Weakest Link - too many people not being prosecuted properly means they're out on the street instead of sitting in Dart's jail awaiting transport to prison.
Of course, the other three aren't exactly lighting the world on fire with the jobs they've been doing. Special Ed is (still) covering up corruption, playing politics with promotional processes and pretty much a failure. Dart is Dart and part of the Prickwrinkle Machine. Lausch is making some waves indicting aldercreatures, but is essentially untested at this point.
But including Foxxx in anything crime-related is an invitation to failure.
