Four Cook County Assistant States Attorneys have resigned from Kimberly Foxx's office over the past two weeks, a source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital.
The Chicago TribuneFormer Cook County Assistant States Attorney Dan Kirk, who knows Foxx and previously worked in the same office as her under former State's Attorney Anita Alvarez, described the head prosecutor as"a great individual" and an intelligent lawyer, but he thinks her"tenure as the elected district attorney has been an abysmal failure."
Four Cook County Assistant States Attorneys have resigned from Kim Foxx's office within the past two weeks, a source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital. Former Cook County Judge Daniel Locallo speculated that the prosecutors may have been unhappy with hours or supervision, but Foxx's office, in general, is"having trouble keeping assistance."
Critics have voiced concern over the 2023 Illinois Safe-T Act, set to take effect Jan. 1, which aims to eliminate cash bail and detain criminals only if"the defendant poses a specific, real and present threat to a person, or has a high likelihood of willful flight," and implement police reform measures.
Kirk recently spoke with Fox News analyst Gianno Caldwell, who lost his 18-year-old brother, Christian, in a July 24 shooting. No arrests have been made or suspects announced in the case since it happened four months ago. Christian was one of three people injured in the shooting, and Caldwell believes the teenager was an unintended target — he was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time, like many other Chicago violent crime victims.
