A Cook County judge has denied Kim Foxx's request that he reconsider the sentence he gave a man a decade ago under a new state law.
judge Friday denied prosecutors’ request that he reconsider the sentence he gave a man a decade ago under a new state law that gives prison inmates who have taken steps toward rehabilitation a chance to get out of prison early.
Miles’ brother and sister-in-law, who drove up from downstate Normal to attend the hearing, said they were disappointed. Miles’ case was the first in Cook County to be argued before a judge after Foxx announced in March that her office had selected three long-serving inmates for potential early release under the new law signed by Gov.The law allows a judge to resentence an inmate recommended by prosecutors if the original sentence "no longer serves the interests of justice," Foxx said in the announcement.
