Charges Dropped Why?

While we're more approving than disapproving of O'Neill-Burke's efforts to turn the States Attorney Office around from defending criminals to actually prosecuting crimes, we're going to want an explanation for this one:

  • Charges have been dropped against two suspects in the death of Chicago firefighter Jermaine Pelt.

    The men were accused of starting the fire that killed Pelt in the West Pullman neighborhood in April 2023. They were about to go on trial when their cases were dismissed. Charges against a third man were dropped in 2024.

    The Cook County State's Attorney's Office said the case is still open and their commitment to seeking justice for Pelt remains unwavering.

The way you maintain public approval and trust is by being open about what you're doing, why your doing it, and how you're correcting the mistakes made by Crimesha.

Saying the case is "still open" and you're "seeking justice" is a soundbite meant to placate the short-attention-span people. Firefighters (and cops) have long memories. Tell them what's going on.

Problematic witnesses?

Conflicting evidence?

ASA fecked around in grand jury?

I don't know. Sounded like a solid case to me.

I'm guessing SA Burke has a good reason. She ain't Kim Fixx...Foxx.

Burke promise them prosecutions and give them get out of jail cards. Burke - a lesser type of "Foxx" but still a Foxx or maybe a weasel.
