Where is States Attorney Foxx on this most recent episode of Cook County corruption?

the watch-dog that doesn't bark

Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle on Wednesday requested an independent review of a county agency tasked with helping get vacant homes back on the market after the head of the agency
admitted a sale involving a building owned by a top aide to 34th Ward Ald. Carrie Austin never should have been allowed.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported on the insider deal involving the Cook County Land Bank Authority and a building that Austin’s chief of staff Chester Wilson Jr. owned at 103rd Street and Corliss Avenue.

“Public trust in the Land Bank’s transactions and mission is critical to its continued success,” Preckwinkle said in a statement. “Consequentially, Commissioner Bridget Gainer and I have requested an independent review to be conducted of the Land Bank’s processes and procedures to evaluate its handling of the Corliss Ave. property and to provide recommendations to ensure future transactions are not in question.”

Kim Foxx is our chief law enforcement officer and absolutely has a duty to be looking into this. It's been  3 days since the story broke and she remains silent. 

If she is not up to the job, she should resign.

  1. She's too busy attending symposiums on how to let felons out of jail sooner

    Toni requested an independent review. Kim isn't independent.
