Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx described “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett as a “washed up celeb who lied to cops” in texts messages released Tuesday by her office in response to a public-records request by the Chicago Tribune.

Foxx compared Smollett’s case to her office’s pending indictments against R&B singer R. Kelly in text messages to Joseph Magats, her top assistant, on March 8, the paper reported

“Pedophile with 4 victims 10 counts. Washed up celeb who lied to cops, 16 (counts),” she wrote. “… Just because we can charge something doesn’t mean we should.”

Kim Foxx text: Jussie Smollett is a “washed up celeb who lied to cops”

Kim Foxx, Cook County State’s Attorney publicly recused herself from the Jussie Smollett case in Chicago but now we know she continued to monitor the case and texted staff about it. Thousands of pages of texts and emails related to the case were released Tuesday by the State’s Attorney’s office. Evidently, she doesn’t hold a high opinion of Smollett.
 
Smollett was charged with 16 felony counts stemming from accusations he committed a phony hate crime against himself on January 29 while blaming it on random violent Trump supporters in Chicago. Kim Foxx texted her disapproval of the decision made by her office to throw the book at Smollett and charge him with 16 felony counts. She sent the text to First Assistant State’s Attorney Joseph Magats, the man who took over when she recused herself. Foxx called the charges excessive and as we all know now, the charges were later dropped. She also didn’t appreciate her office being accused of overcharging, especially since she claims that she was elected as a criminal justice reformer.

But she chose to drop the charges against the washed up lying actor. I guess the word "Hypocrite" applies here.
