A Chicago judge said Friday he won't replace a special prosecutor looking into why the state's attorney's office abruptly dismissed charges against actor Jussie Smollett, rejecting concerns that campaign money could taint the findings.The judge's decision during a hearing came days after the special prosecutor, former U.S. Attorney Dan Webb, disclosed in a filing that he co-hosted a 2016 fundraiser for Kim Foxx and wrote her campaign a $1,000 check during her successful run for Cook County state's attorney.It was Foxx's office that in March surprised and angered many in Chicago by dropping charges that accused the former "Empire" actor of staging a racist, homophobic attack against himself. Smollett is still adamant that the attack was real and wasn't a publicity hoax.Judge Michael Toomin appeared to give no credence to concerns that Webb's disclosure made his position untenable as head of a politically sensitive investigation that could, depending on his findings, lead to the reinstatement of charges against Smollett."There's no indication," the judge said, that the 74-year-old prosecutor-turned-star private attorney "harbors any bias ... to any party."https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wireStory/judge-finds-bias-jussie-smollett-special-prosecutor-66068728
We have a typical Chicago operation going on where everyone is complicit in the coverup.
