Kim Foxx to run for re-election as state's attorney despite being hammered for Jussie Smollett case

Kim Foxx, the controversial Cook County state's attorney who has come under fire for her handling of the Jussie Smollett case, announced Tuesday she is running for re-election.

Foxx felt the ire of the Chicago police department and the city’s former mayor after her office abruptly dropped a 16-count indictment against Smollett, who authorities claimed faked a hate crime against himself in order to gin up publicity for his acting career. Smollett has denied the allegations.

Foxx tweeted her announcement Tuesday morning.

“I ran for Cook County State’s Attorney four years ago because we needed to change criminal justice in our county. Today, I’m officially running for re-election. We’ve gotten a lot done, and we can’t go back now.”

How to deflect complicity...run again on "changing criminal justice in our country". Literally, the Foxx in the hen house.
