I'm not sure why this would be surprising. Even first year law students know that the first thing you do in a lawsuit is move to dismiss. WaPo isn't going to hire idiots to represent them.

And why not? They hire idiots to write for them? ?

Yeah, but consider the respective target audiences of a WaPo reporter and a WaPo attorney.

Chicago's going to spend more suing him to not receive the money than they would receive if he ever paid them.

 

Couldn't happen to a more deserving city.

The civil suit is all to get back at Kim Foxx and get the prior proceedings unsealed. I expect it will then show her in a less than favorable light. Paybacks for her decisions that pissed off the police.

This whole thing is so ***** up that it's to the point that you have to wonder if anything makes sense anymore . I think we all can pretty well conclude that this thing was a staged act and not a hate crime in any way. But somehow after all the lies and cover ups this guy is pretty much carrying on a normal life and this gets swept under the rug after trying to exploit a political agenda.  The scales of justice are broken .

Here's another awesome story .. the msm reported the jussie smollet maga 

incident as "was attacked", here's exactly how it works in the media..

ABC news reports :

5-year-old allegedly thrown off balcony at Mall of America being treated for life-threatening injuries: Police

The story goes on to say:

"This is just under a 40-foot fall," Potts told reporters. He noted that there were many eyewitnesses and video of the incident.

So the 5 year old was white, and the 'alleged' perp was somali...

I shudder to think how this would have gone if the races in this 'alleged ' crime were reversed.

Interesting read a while ago about how Minnesota is a hotbed for recruiting Somali terrrorists.

 

Weird how they elected a woman to Congress who called 9/11 "something that someone did."

 

Eh. Maybe I'm just imagining things.

Old news.  I remember reading about that about ten years ago.  If I don't complain about Omar much, it's because she's representing the constituency that elected her.

 

What's interesting, though, is that as a Somali immigrant elected by a community that sees significant recruitment for Somali terrorists, you can almost certainly tie her campaign to terrorism.

What?   I made a joke that it was the balcony that was alleged, not the "throwing off of," and you get all pissy because you're too moronic to get it and think I'm correcting your spelling?

Two ranking executives inside the Cook County State’s Attorney's Office have submitted their resignations — including State’s Attorney Kim Foxx’s chief ethics officer, April Perry, whom Foxx cited as the person who advised her to “recuse” herself from the Jussie Smollett case that has rocked the Chicago office, Fox News learned Thursday.

Jussie Smollett update: Judge rules to unseal records in 'Empire' actor's case
 

A judge ruled Thursday to unseal documents in the case of "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett.
 

The records were sealed in March shortly after charges against Smollett were abruptly dropped by prosecutors. Attorneys representing the media, including ABC7, challenged the sealing of the records.

The Chicago Police Department could release hundreds of pages of official documents from "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett's case on Thursday.
 

Last week, a Cook County judge ordered police and prosecutors to unseal the documents in the case. The police documents include official typed reports from handwritten notes from detectives.
 

Police also have 69 hours of video in the case and redacted versions of the videos could be released next week.

This is actually brilliant on the part of Chicago. Either he coughs up the cash to reimburse the City, tacitly admitting guilt, or they go forward with a trial for reimbursement, meaning ALL of the Chicago PD files detailing the investigation become public record.

Now the story has changed to Foxx "recusing" herself because of rumors that she was related to Smollett? Though I do like that the reporter mentioned that she continued to interfere in the case after "recusing".

 

This Foxx B word just doesn't know when to quit.
