Kim Foxx lied about contacts with Jussie Smollett's sister, violated legal ethics, investigation finds

Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx repeatedly told the public that she cut off communications with Jussie Smollett's sister when she was told that the actor became a suspect, but she continued communicating with her several days after, according to the special prosecutor's report.

During the phone call on Feb. 13, Foxx and Smollett discussed the skin color of the alleged attackers with Smollett's sister asking, "They're White, right?" Foxx informed her that they were not White. During the late evening of Feb. 13, Smollett said her conversation with Foxx was "quite different" and that Foxx said she couldn't communicate with her anymore and that she was recusing herself from the case.
