Last August a judge appointed special prosecutor Dan Webb to look into Kim Foxx’s handling of the Jussie Smollett case. Today, Webb concluded that investigation and revealed he had found “substantial abuses of discretion” in Foxx’s handling of the case. However, he did not find anything that would lead to charges against Foxx or others in her office. Here are the five major findings in Webb’s report:

Quote
Overall, Webb said he found:

• Evidence establishing “substantial abuses of discretion” in prosecuting and dismissing the initial criminal charges filed against Smollett.

• Evidence “that may rise to the level of a violation of legal ethics by State’s Attorney Foxx” and other Cook County prosecutors “relating to false and/or misleading public statements made about the prosecution.”

• Evidence showing Foxx was given frequent updates about the case against Smollett following her declared recusal, though there was no evidence showing Foxx was involved in decision-making after that point.

• No evidence that would support criminal charges against Foxx or any other Cook County prosecutor.

• No evidence of “improper influence by any outside third parties” in the decision-making by Foxx’s office regarding the initial charges against Smollett.

Nope, not a thing.  Foxxy is on her way to reelection.

I've wondered in Kamala Harris and Cory Booker were in on setting the Smollett thing up. They had an anti lynching bill all cued up and ready to take advantage of his lie. And they knew the guy...

Smolett should be sent to prison for 10 years +.  I am 100% certain one or more people are dead today because of his stunt.
