Yesterday Breitbart<\/a> posted an article about Cook County State\u2019s Attorney Kim Foxx.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Cook County State\u2019s Attorney Kim Foxx has dropped over 25,000 felony cases, including charges of murder and the alleged hate crime hoax from former\u00a0Empire<\/em>\u00a0star Jussie Smollett, according to an analysis released by the\u00a0Chicago Tribune<\/em> on Monday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article quotes the Chicago Tribune<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n
\n

During Foxx\u2019s first three years as the county\u2019s 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\u2019s tenure, the rate was 19.4%.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

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.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[\u2026]<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the three-year period analyzed, Foxx\u2019s 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.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article at Breitbart continues:<\/p>\n

In a statement to the Tribune<\/em>, Foxx, who is up for\u00a0reelection in November, said of the figures:\u00a0\u201cIt is always eye-opening to be able to look at our own data and compare it to my predecessor\u2019s past. I can\u2019t reconcile what her decision-making was, and how they chose to (dismiss) cases in the past. But I will say that this administration has been clear that our focus would be on violent crime and making sure that our resources and attention would go to addressing violent crime.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are trying to make sense out of this, you might want to look at one of the contributors to Foxx’s reelection campaign.<\/p>\n

In February 2020, The Chicago Sun Times<\/a> reported:<\/p>\n

A political action committee founded by liberal billionaire philanthropist \u2014 and Donald Trump nemesis \u2014 George Soros kicked $2 million to a committee supporting Cook County State\u2019s Attorney Kim Foxx in her re-election bid against three Democratic primary challengers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A mega donor to Democrats and liberal causes, the hedge fund operator\u2019s Democracy PAC transferred $2 million into the Illinois Justice and Public Safety PAC on Wednesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The justice and public safety PAC has so far spent $571,359.30 on mail, media and website production costs opposing Bill Conway, one of Foxx\u2019s primary challengers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

George Soros is on a mission to undermine to government of America in order to further plans for a one-world government. He has funded the campaigns of a number of District Attorneys and State Attorneys General in order to do that. His campaign contributions were a major part of the Democrats’ takeover of the Virginia government in the last election. That takeover has brought restrictive gun laws and other problems. George Soros is an American citizen and can legally donate to campaigns both as an individual and through Political Actions Committees (PACs). I have no doubt he will continue to do so until Americans get wise to what he is attempting to do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
