Now they tell us: Kim Foxx didn’t recuse herself from the Smollett case, office acknowledges

https://hotair.com/archives/2019/03...dnt-recuse-smollett-case-office-acknowledges/
“The State’s Attorney did not formally recuse herself or the Office based on any actual conflict of interest,” her spokeswoman, Tandra R. Simonton, said Wednesday in an email response to my questions. “As a result, she did not have to seek the appointment of a special prosecutor under (state law).”

Instead, she put her first assistant, Joe Magats, out front to take the beating that would come.

“Although we use the term ‘recuse’ as it relates to State’s Attorney Foxx’s involvement in the matter, it was a colloquial use of the term rather in its legal sense,” Foxx’s office said.

Foxx was on the case all along.
 
As a refresher:

“I know members of the Smollett family based on prior work together,” Tchen said in a statement. “Shortly after Mr. Smollett reported he was attacked, as a family friend, I contacted Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx, who I also know from prior work together. My sole activity was to put the chief prosecutor in the case in touch with an alleged victim’s family who had concerns about how the investigation was being characterized in public.”

Foxx said she recused herself from the investigation because of her contacts with Tchen and the Smollett family member. The prosecutor wrote to Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson after the contacts to convey that the family wanted the FBI to take over the investigation, according to copies of emails and text released by the State’s Attorney’s Office.
 
Lawyers at 26th and California should be having a field day with "colloquial, rather than legal" today. My client was guilty of theft/speeding/whatever in the colloquial sense, not the legal sense, your honor.

The city of Chicago delivered a letter to Jussie Smollett's legal team seeking $130,000 from the actor, a spokesperson for the city law department revealed to Fox News on Thursday...

"It is the Mayor and the Police Chief who owe Jussie - owe him an apology - for dragging an innocent man’s character through the mud. Jussie has paid enough," said his bunghole which had previously not uttered anything other than occasional flatulatory sound waves...

I told you right here that it was a hoax and I did it for free. Chicago wants way too much money. Hell, anybody could have solved this for just a beer or two.
 
If I was Jussie I would respond to the letter requesting $130,000 with some words about the hot sauce bottle laying on the sidewalk 10 days after it was used to chemically annihilate both my soul and my clothing. I would decorate my own letter with LOLs and ROFLs and Laughing Dogs. Then I would grind up an aspirin tablet...

What about federal prosecution?

The state might have come up with a slap on the wrist knowing the feds have a case- with possible greater punishment when found guilty. Hence the "deferred prosecution"- it means they "defferred" to the Feds. Fed case comes first. But my comprehension of the English Language is not the same as a lawyers.

Don't think there is a federal crime to be investigated, beyond what they are already doing re - the letter.

Most of the times when the feds go after someone, it's for a civil rights violation. There is no way he could violate his own civil rights.
 
It's reported that when the letter arrived at the studio addressed to him he went and got rubber gloves for his boss and himself for the opening of the letter. "Mercy me! It's a good thing that I decided we should wear gloves. Ponder that yonder powder amongst us!"

The letter is adequate. It's terrorism, the Feds do go after that. And if Jussie used somebody else to mail it, there is conspiracy. I think upthread somebody had about 4 federal crimes.

Only guilty people get billed for police costs, and usually only as part of a sentence or settlement. And it is common for civil settlements to be sealed, NOT criminal. His lawyers plea bargained. Spelled G-U-I-L-T-Y.

I eagerly await news from the Feds.

And all this time I thought Chicago was "MAGA Country". Rahm's statement uses more twisted logic than I thought possible. Smollet's self staged hate crime isn't because of toxic and hate-filled rhetoric; it's psychopathic and delusional. I know, that's Trump's fault too.
 
I was almost fooled into thinking Rahm Emmanuel had a decent, non corrupt bone in his body. Then I realized that Chicago's top political grifter is just mad because he got out-grifted by a TV star.

Also how about that Tina Tchen? People complain when I say all politicians are corrupt, but what do you think Obama hired her for?
 
Jussie Smollett's "community service" was for Jesse Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition and was not court ordered.

Read the letters here:

So his lawyer gets him to do two whole days of work for Jackson on March 23 and 25, presents this to the court with the $10,000 bond idea, and he walks.

"Mr. Smollett is one of the most impactful community service volunteers we have ever worked with"

He also got the Black AIDS Institute to write a nice letter too. Not regular AIDS, no, the black version.

His peeps, the good Reverend Jackson, the Obamas and Tchen, Foxx, the Black Aids people all pulled strings for this jerkoff.

This story just gets better every day.
 
Pay us or we are coming for you...

CBS News said:
...The letter claims the the "Chicago police investigation revealed that you knowingly filed a false police report and had in fact orchestrated your own attack," and requests from Smollett an "immediate payment of the $130,160.15 expended on overtime hours in the investigation of this matter," to be paid within seven days.

The letter was sent to Smollet's attorney Patricia Brown Holmes' office in downtown Chicago.

If Smollett fails to pay the City of Chicago Corporate Counsel, the letter states he faces prosecution by the Department of Law and a fine of no less than $500 and a maximum of $1,000, "plus up to three times the amount of damages the city sustains as a result of the violation."...

I suspect that they will rapidly prosecute him if he doesn't pay in a week. He won't be given any extra time or leeway.
