Kim Foxx: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know | Heavy.com
Cook County State's Attorney Kimberly "Kim" M.
Foxx has recused herself from the Jussie Smollet case.
In a statement, Foxx, 36, said her decision to take herself off the high-profile case was to "address potential questions of impartiality based upon familiarity with potential witnessed in the case.
But some are asking to what witnesses specifically is she referring and what is her connection.
Others, however, are saying that the county's top prosecutor is displaying integrity and it should be left at that.
But the twisting and turning controversial Smollet case has led to more questions than answers.
Here's what you need to know:.
'Empire' Actor Jussie Smollet Said 2 Masked 'MAGA' Men Attacked Him & Put a Noose Around His Neck in a Homophobic Assault.
That Story Has Unraveled.
Smollett, who plays Jamal Lyon on "Empire," is gay.
His detailed account of the attack was not supported by evidence, police said.
Smollet claimed he was jumped in downtown Chicago in late January by two men in masks who shouted racist and gay slurs including, "This is MAGA country!" He said the assailants placed a noose around his neck and doused him with some substance and then took off.
Smollet received tremendous support on social media from myriad public figures and appeared on talk shows to tell his story.
Weeks later, police picked up brothers Abel and Ola Osundairo, both are actors who have appeared in the show.
It's been reported that Smollet hired them for a staged attack.
Smollet through his lawyer has denied this allegation.
The case is headed to a grand jury.
Foxx Said She's Stepping Away to Avoid a Conflict of Interest.
She Spoke at 'Raising Our Voices: Supporting More Women in Hollywood & Politics'.
Kim Foxx, Lisa Ling, Melissa Fumero, Stephanie Schriock, Amber Tamblyn, and Olivia Munn attend EMILY's List forum.
According to NBC Chicago, a spokesperson for Foxx emailed a statement that read, "Out of an abundance of caution, the decision to recuse herself was made to address potential questions of impartiality based upon familiarity with potential witnesses in the case.
" No other explanation was offered, it was reported.
Assistant State's Attorney Joseph Magats will take over the Smollet case.
Meanwhile, some want specifics on why she's stepped away.
"She definitely should explain… and the fact that she feels she doesn't owe the people who elected her an explanation is a problem for me," one wrote on the Fox32 Chicago Facebook post.
But others say she's doing the right thing and caution that there should be no "rush to judge.
"If Kim Foxx says it's a conflict of interest why not take her word, she must have her reason.
If she had stayed on the case and later the media found there was a conflict they would be calling for her to step down.
Don't rush to judge until all the facts are in," one commented.
Another wrote, "It's called professional INTEGRITY??? I know in this political climate that's a strange concept.
I praise her for not compromising the investigation if there is a personal connection…".
