Chicagon kantakaupunkiin vievät nostosillat nostetaan yöksi ylös ryöstelyn estämiseksi...

(Tulee ihan Gotham mieleen, no ehkä Batman tulee ja auttaa joitakin?) Todellisuudessa eihän tällaisten ihmisten kanssa voi asua, jotka tilaisuuden koittaessa ryöstävät ja tuhoavat ihan kaiken? Tässä laajempi katsaus demokraattien hallinnoimiin kaupunkeihin nyt, tuhon ollessa jo laajaa:

Vakavan rikollisuuden valtava kasvu ei ole oikeastaan mikään yllätys. Myös Chicagon alueen vakavia rikollisia on päästetty ulos kesken tuomioiden, koska korona. Myös Lori Lightfoot on rampauttanut poliisin toimintaa ja kaiken muun lisäksi nyt on paljastunut, että:
Syyttäjäviranomainen (DA) on
Kim Foxxin johdolla tiputtanut jopa 35% enemmän vakavia rikoksia kuin edeltäjänsä!
Chicagon Kim Foxx on jättänyt syyttämättä 25 000 vakavaa rikosta, ero valtava edeltäjiin.jpg
Foxx valittiin virkaansa 2016 ja hän on tähän mennessä jättänyt syyttämättä noin 25 200 vakavaa rikosta enemmänkuin edeltäjänsä (felony), joukossa rauhanomaisia blm-murhaajia, naisten- ja poliisienpieksäjiä, raiskaajia ja muita kilttejä ja viattomia yksilöitä.
Osa toki varmaankin aiheesta vapautettuja, mutta ero edeltäjään on valtava ja joukossa on niitäkin, joiden rikokset tallentuivat jopa poliisin kehokameraan (silminnäkijöiden lisäksi), mutta Kim antoi heidän mennä (koska blm...)
Jotain henkilön linjasta kertoo esimerkiksi tapaus
Jussie Smollett eli Ameriikan husuttaja, jonka Kim Foxx ilmeisen poliittisista syistä vapautti syytteistä selvästä lavastetusta viharikoksesta huolimatta (millä pyrittiin vain lietsomaan vihaa ja saamaan black matter -huomiota).
Taitanee Foxxin Kimbula siis olla pyrkimässä tulevaisuudessa ihan toisenlaisiin hommiin, vaikka toki nytkin tekee käytännön (rotta)politiikkaa? Ei siis mikään ihme, että jopa nostosiltoja joudutaan ottamaan pois käytöstä rikollisuuden takia ja veri valuu kuin Golgatalla! On Chicagossa, "tuulisessa kaupungissa", varmaan tavallisilla perheillä olemista, kun Foxxin ja Lightfootin kaltaiset on äänestetty vastaamaan mm. ihmisten turvallisuudesta? Suorastaan pelottavaa ja vaikea nähdä muuta syytä kuin tietyn kansanosan suosiminen muiden turvallisuuden kustannuksella?
Tuolla Chicagossa se Markkasen Laurikin asustaa, mutta varsinainen sota on käynnissä lähinnä Chicagon eteläosassa (South Side), missä miljonääripallistit tuskin asustavat tai käyvät ostamassa cräckiä, mutta tuore rauhanomainen alennusmyyntiryntäys tapahtui jo ihan turistialueella, missä on luksusliikkeitä ja myös Chicagon kuuluisa paikallisjuna, joka kulkee "2. kerroksessa".

Kim Foxx johtaa USA:n toiseksi suurinta syytäjänvirastoa, jossa työskentelee noin 800 syyttäjää ja 1500 virkailijaa. Hän on tehnyt muutoksia laitoksen toimiatalinjauksissa. Foxx asettunee ehdolle jalkokaudelle 3.11.2020 vaaleissa. Häntä pidetään edistyksellisenä syytjänviraston johtajana.
Bail and pretrial detention reforms
In March 2017, shortly after taking office, Foxx announced that the State's Attorney's office would no longer pursue keeping certain detainees in jail because they are unable to post the bail amount of $1000. Foxx expressed support for the proposed Bail Reform Act, testifying in favor of it at the Illinois General Assembly despite opposition to the bill from the Illinois State’s Attorneys’ Association. The legislation passed in June 2017 and removed the requirement to post cash bail for those charged with minor crimes. That same month, Foxx's office announced that prosecutors would no longer request pretrial detention for those charged with low-level noviolent offenses in court.
Transparency reforms
In March 2018, Foxx's office launched an open data portal and released 6 years of data on felony criminal cases.[33] Since then, case-level data on felony intake, initiation, disposition, and sentencing, along with summary reports and dashboards, have been posted on the State's Attorney office's website.
Reduction in incarceration rates
A series of reports by The People's Lobby and Reclaim Chicago, progressive organizations who had endorsed Foxx in 2016, found that the number of sentences involving prison time in Cook County dropped 2.5% from 2016 to 2017 and 19% from 2017 to 2018.
An October 2019 report by The Marshall Project found that since taking office, Foxx "turned away more than 5,000 cases that would have been pursued by previous State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez, mostly by declining to prosecute low-level shoplifting and drug offenses and by diverting more cases to alternative treatment programs." Foxx has directed her office to not prosecute shoplifting cases under $1,000 as felonies.
Gun violence
Early in her first term, Foxx established a program called the Gun Crimes Strategies Unit (GCSU), which placed specially trained prosecutors directly in police districts. In 2019, analysis by the University of Chicago Crime Lab found that gun violence decreased in the five districts with the GCSU program, and that charges for habitual gun offenders increased in these districts.
Police misconduct
In April 2017, Foxx announced that her office had drafted legislation proposing an amendment to the Special Prosecutor Act, which would give the statewide Office of the State Appellate Prosecutor the jurisdiction to review cases of police shootings where the State's Attorney's office decides not to prosecute. The legislation was passed in May 2017 and signed into law in August 2017.
Marijuana legalization
In January 2019, Foxx announced her support for the proposed legalization of recreational marijuana use in Illinois, and helped to write the provisions of the law pertaining to past convictions.The law passed in May 2019, and later that year, Foxx's office initiated the expungement of 1012 low-level nonviolent marijuana convictions as allowed by the new law. Foxx's office stated that it would attempt to use the maximum authority allowed by the law to overturn low-level convictions, and partnered with the nonprofit organization Code for America to develop procedures for the conviction relief process. Foxx has called conviction relief an effort to "right the wrongs of the past" and "a recommitment of our values; that a low-level marijuana conviction does not mean that someone is a threat to public safety."Wrongful convictions
In October 2019, as part of her budget proposal to the Cook County Board of Commissioners, Foxx proposed expanding the Conviction Integrity Unit in the State's Attorney's office by adding 10 new units. The proposed expansion was partly in response to developments that would enable the State's Attorney's office to address conviction challenges based on allegations of torture by former Chicago police commander Jon Burge.[51]
As of February 2020, the Conviction Integrity Unit has worked with the Exoneration Project to overturn 95 convictions tied to the team of disgraced former Chicago police sergeant Ronald Watts.
Jussie Smollett case
On February 19, 2019, Foxx announced that she had recused herself from the Jussie Smollett alleged assault investigation. Smollet was alleged to have orchestrated a staged assault and filed a false report with the local police; Foxx's recusal, due to her "familiarity with potential witnesses in the case", prompted criticism from her predecessor Anita Alvarez.[53][54] Recusing herself would have required Foxx to ask the court to appoint an outside attorney as a special prosecutor. Critics called her method of recusal insufficient, saying that because her office retained authority over the case, she maintained influence over how it was handled.
On March 26, 2019, her office dropped all charges against Smollett, which was denounced by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Police Superintendent Eddie T. Johnson. The Chicago Police Union pushed for an investigation into Foxx’s decision. Foxx was also criticized by the Illinois Prosecutors Bar Association president Lee Roupas and Nelson Bunn, the Executive Director[ of the National District Attorneys Association. Chicago's Fraternal Order of Police called for her resignation. A special prosecutor has been appointed to examine the handling of the case.
