This time the Cook County AG Kim Foxx wants to wipe the records of thousands of marijuana dealers in the Chicago area and is open to expunging heroin and cocaine possession offenses
Cook County Attorney General Kim Foxx wants to automatically delete records for those caught selling 30 to 500 grams cannabis
If successful the top prosecutor may include cocaine and heroin possession for expungement
Foxx said in some areas of Chicago, drug dealing is the 'only economy that they had'
She called the move a 'test balloon' for re-examining drug laws across US
Foxx expunged 2,200 lower-level cannabis records after legalization in 2020
Her office caused outrage over their handling of Jussie Smollett case, after she dropped charges against the Empire actor accused of staging a racist attack
She was re-elected to her post this year after being branded a 'cheerleader for criminals'
