Quote:Chicago police came out swinging Wednesday and released the full 61-page investigative report in the alleged Jussie Smollett hate crime hoax, one day after charges against the "Empire" star were dramatically dropped — but the move prompted a moot court order.

The release of the documents came one day after Cook County prosecutors dismissed a 16-count indictment against the actor, saying they had cut a deal with the TV star to perform two days of community service and forfeit his $10,000 bond to the city.

The move made it possible for Smollett's attorneys to get his criminal case immediately sealed and wiped clean.

About an hour after the department released the files, the Chicago police reportedly became subject of a court order that barred them from releasing further files even though they were widely available online.

The dismissal of charges against Smollett over the alleged attack drew a swift backlash from the city's mayor and police chief and raised questions about why Smollett was not forced to admit what prosecutors had said they could prove in court — that the entire episode was a publicity stunt.

The police files – some of which were redacted to remove witness names and personal information – laid out steps taken by detectives to get to the bottom of what happened the night of Jan. 29.

The report revealed new details about the police obtaining a search warrant for Smollett's iCloud account and then sharing the data with the FBI. The report also provided fresh details about the $3,500 check Smollett wrote to Abimbola "Abel" Osundairo and Olabinjo "Ola" Osundairo. The brothers claimed they were paid to carry out the attack on Smollett, though Smollett said the money was for personal training sessions.

Wednesday's released report shed light on some of the behind-the-scenes moves investigators and prosecutors made to interview witnesses and throw off reporters.

Figured something like that would happen. DOJ might need to start an investigation.

Quote:

Someone is desperate to memory-hole this case as comprehensively as possible. Remember, S.A. Kim Foxx supposedly recused herself from the entire matter after it was revealed that Michelle Obama's former Chief of Staff -- on behalf of the Smollett family -- had privately attempted to intervene in the case (Foxx also texted and spoke with a relative of Smollett's). Foxx's office ended up pursuing a course of action that Smollett's family could only have dreamed of, complete with blocking access to the diligently-gained proof of his crimes. The prosecutors are not saying he's innocent, mind you. Just the opposite:

The Chicago Police have already called for a federal investigation into Ms. Foxx, and a spokesperson for the department retweeted a Chicago Tribune story about growing tensions between cops and prosecutors. Chicago media are starting to ask pointed questions:

Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx—a self-styled “reformer” who gained office largely by riding the wave of justified outrage over the Laquan McDonald scandal—appears to have pretty much botched that task in her office’s handling of the high-profile Jussie Smollett case. By first intervening with police on Smollett’s behalf and now allowing her top assistant to dismiss a 16-count felony indictment against the tall-tale-telling “Empire” actor with the lightest of slaps on the wrist, Foxx has endangered her political future and, more important, faith in the local justice system. “The office owes the public an explanation,” former Foxx chief deputy Eric Sussman told me in a phone interview late today. “I agree with the mayor. It looks like a whitewash.” It sure does.

Kim Foxx’s office didn’t merely drop all the charges against Smollett, not long after Foxx began playing “Obama Celebrity Friends” with former first lady Michelle Obama’s onetime chief of staff. Foxx’s office dropped the charges, yes. But also as part of the deal, he will be wiped clean. His lawyers want his record expunged. That could happen as soon as today. The stain of the 16 counts in the indictment will be scrubbed right off him. You might say Foxx is bathing him in the waters of the Chicago Way, cleansing him, and making a new man out of him. And now he’s smirking at the city, the mayor, the cops, everyone.

Even progressives like David Axelrod smell something rotten:

Grab them now if you want to look at it before his legal team started sending out takedown requests.

Kind of make you think....

what in the **** he has on some people in high places

Wow. First Rahm Emanuel and now David Axelrod. It’s as if Smollett &Co. have created a pile of sh¡t so rancid, so foul, that even liberals want nothing to do with it. No small accomplishment.

Coordination of their "anti lynching" bill. Smollet was in on it, which is why he did the fake hate crime crap.

You do know that even the Obama connected prosecutor who dropped the charges has publicly claimed she had more than enough evidence to achieve a guilty verdict, right?
