Oh Boy: Special Prosecutor Appointed to Probe Kim Foxx's Corrupt Handling of Jussie Smollett Case;
As Kim Foxx's Fake-Recusal Sham Was Illegal, Jussie Smollett May Be Recharged and Retried
So, I'm just spitballing based on the story from John Sexton at Hot Air and my basic sense of how these things work, but I think what's going on here is this:
1. From where an elected official derives his power from is important, and it's what makes us a constitutional republic. When a state's attorney is appointed by a governor, the governor is elected by the people, and invested with the power to appoint states attorneys, so the states attorneys' power to prosecute derives from the people, albeit indirectly.
In Illinois, states attorneys are elected directly, so their power derives directly from the people.
2. There is a specified procedure for recusal of states attorney and for appointing a special prosecutor for the cases the attorney has recused herself from. Kim Foxx attempted a fake, sham recusal, a non-recusal recusal, and did not follow this procedure. She tried to pretend she was recusing herself while just giving the case to her direct subordinate -- someone who cannot be said to be "independent" of her, as she's his boss. He knows her mind, and he knows what she wants him to do. And he's incentivized to please her.
3. So, when Kim Foxx executed this illegal, unconstitutional maneuver of appointing a fake special prosecutor who was really just her flunky carrying out her wishes, that fake special prosecutor did not have any actual authority deriving from the law or the people in an election.
4. Therefore, her deputy's decision to let Smollett off the hook without even an admission of guilt was done without any actual force of law. It was basically lawless, and can be, and should be, ignored.
Sexton quotes from the Chicago Tribune below. The judge who appointed the special prosecutor is named Toomin -- and you'll see, Toomin has some concerns about Kim Foxx.
"There was no duly elected state's attorney when Jussie Smollett was arrested. Ms. Foxx had already effected her recusal," Toomin said, nor was there any legally appointed prosecutor when Smollett was charged, or the charges dismissed. Toomin expressed concerned about Foxx’s decision to delegate case to Magats. "There isn’t an office of 'acting states attorney.' It existed only . . . in the imagination of Ms Foxx," Toomin said.

Update: From Tami:
@crepeau And now, a statement from Foxx's former Chief Ethics Officer April Perry -- Foxx has long claimed she recused herself on Perry's advice; here's Perry saying it's more complicated than that. https://tinyurl.com/yyg5gpbf @crepeau essentially - Perry is saying once she became aware that the recusal might not be legally sound, she took steps to try to remedy that, but Foxx declined to follow through.Because she didn't want it to be legally sound. She wanted it Calvinball, where she is simultaneously recused "colloquially," for public consumption, and yet not recused, when it comes to doing favors for palz.

Nah. Even if it did, for the state charges, they could try him for the same crimes at the federal level and then bring galactic charges for the same crime and universal ones, too. And then they could let the EU charge him and the Mexicans and the French Guyanans. SCOTUS said so.

I never understood how the prosecutor could have any say about the bond money. The prosecution has no control over bail bonds. They beg the judge for that and the judge does whatever the hell he pleases. How in hell can the prosecution make restrictions on bail bonds that the prosecution has no control over, to start with. I never understood this ... although, being Illinois/Chicago was enough of a hint.

Maybe but he pissed off a lot of people. Was his premise that he was attacked because he was gay, black or both? He made a fool of himself, wasted a lot of LE time and money, sunk his TV series, etc. I don't see a lot of people being in his corner with the exception of Mooch and a few others.

I believe "viz." is an abbreviation of Latin "videlicet," which does mean namely. How the "z" got in there is anybody's guess.

i.e., and e.g.: I have to say, I am absolutely a BEAR on both of these, and use them correctly and don't mix them up, just because of Gary Gygax.
N.B. or Note bene: I assume this means "Note well."
Cf.: Compare. I don't know what this stands for. I assume it's Latin.
et al.: Yup.
Viz.: Nope, though Gary Gygaz used this a lot.
pace: I think Gary Gygax used this occasionally. I did not learn what it meant until a couple of years ago. It meant the opposite of what I guessed. It means "despite" or "contrary to." Like, pace ben Shapiro, the election was in fact binary.
I don't know what it actually MEANS, though.
Posted by: ace at June 21, 2019 04:33 PM (PbpT7)
i gotta admit, I am nowhere near solid on either of those.
I think I know HOW to use to wit, but I don't really know what it means.
Viz. means, what, See? Compare? No, that's Cf.
Okay, I gotta read my first edition Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Dungeon Masters Guide again.
Posted by: Thence and Thither at June 21, 2019 04:29 PM (PbpT7)
"Viz." is essentially "namely." "To wit" I've always read as "specifically" or close enough to "namely."

Remember: Both Smollett and Foxx have ties to Kamala Harris, who just coincidentally happened to introduce anti-lynching legislation at the same time Jussie's "bleach friends" got him with their Fake Noose.
I think she put him up to it, and when it went sideways, was terrified that the spineless poofter would give up the game when pressured during plea negotiations. I think she made Foxx whitewash the prosecution.

I've thought that more than once. It just seems like someone got so invested in the idea that white people in power use it to get away with everything and give out favors that it seems the normal and expected thing to do. And then it's surprising if someone seems to care.
But then, it might be true in Chicago.
Way back when I was in the Philippines it certainly seemed the case that even someone of noble intentions wouldn't be allowed to be uncorrupt because every last person around them now expected favors and contracts including family. Just everyone.
I may have grown up very naive.

vis a vis (accent grave over the a) means "in relation to, regarding."
You'd use it like this:

And now, a statement from Foxx's former Chief Ethics Officer April Perry -- Foxx has long claimed she recused herself on Perry's advice; here's Perry saying it's more complicated than that.

essentially - Perry is saying once she became aware that the recusal might not be legally sound, she took steps to try to remedy that, but Foxx declined to follow through.

When a hotel says "Continental Breakfast" it just means cheap crackers and stale coffee. And be happy there's any coffee, at all.
"Continental Breakfast" roughly equals "We don't serve breakfast. Go buy your own food."

Easy enough to remember: cf. is short for confer, which literally means "bring together" -- which is what you'd do to compare something.
As for "vis-a-vis," I think it means "in contrast to." Not sure about that, or even which language it's from -- from the pronunciation, I'd guess French.
"Inter alia" = "among others," the same "alia" that is abbreviated in "et al.," "and others." "Alibi," "al" plus "ibi," literally meant "other place" or "elsewhere."
Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius at June 21, 2019 04:47 PM (ClOmq)
Well, I don't think it's short for face in the original old french, i think it just meant face. That is, vis was the full word.
visAGe is derived from vis

The murders occurred in 1986, and the murderer has been on death row since then, and has been convicted numerous times but keeps having his convictions overturned for various reasons. This time the S. ct just made shit up and found that the State was racist in the juror selection process.

pace (prep.)

i've heard it both ways, but mostly the second way. Both sound grammatically right to me.
...
i just realized, in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the knights who say Ni say "suffice... (curious pause) to say... is the word the knights who say ni cannot abide hearing."
And so I'm thinking, the pause there is because he's omitting the word "it," which he cannot abide hearing, or hearing himself say.

Suffice it to say. Another way of saying "let it suffice to say".
If you just go "suffice to say" there's no subject for the verb suffice.

>>>I've always thought it was the Latin for "peace," like, "Peace, man, but I'm gonna disagree with you."
hah. that is a way to remember it. who knows, it might actually mean something like that.
Update: It does, in fact, mean just that.
pace (prep.)
"with the leave of," 1863, from Latin pace, ablative of pax "peace,"
as in pace tua "with all deference to you;" from PIE root *pag- "to
fasten." "Used chiefly as a courteous or ironical apology for a
contradiction or difference of opinion" [OED].

Regarding the Yat dialect of Noo Awlins, Pittsburghese is sort of similar. "Jeet yet?" "No, joo?" is not an anti-Semitic exchange, but means "Did you eat yet?" and "No, did you?"

fascade doesn't really mean face. it means false face or false front. A fascade is a decorative front of a building which isn't structural. it's like make-up for buildings.

yes. There is a some attempt at a quasi rigorous proof showing that no dictionary is ever a self-contained internally self-defined thing, as it always requires external information to make sense of it.
One of the parts of this proof is that there is no real defintion of the word "word" that does not rely on the reader already pretty much knowing what "word" means.

Well, so, in French, the t would be silent, unless followed by an e, which makes the t sound. So in french, forte is prounounced.. fort. "Fort," no t, would be like "For"
I personally say forTAY, even though I know it's wrong, because the actual french pronunciation sounds wrong.
And if asked I'll just say I mean the italian forte, which is a musical notation meaning "with strength, with force."

I think there are two words here.
There's a cache of weapons, which i think is just "cash," and then there's "heat" in a marketplace, which is pronounced "cash-AY," and i think that latter word might have the accent over the e at the end? (Rising accent.)
Are these the same word just used in different contexts? I dunno.

also, there's no rule that foreign-derived words have to be pronounced
according to the original language's rules. England generally pronounces
all foreign words in the straightforward English sort of way. America
is kind of half-and-half on this, all over the map, sometimes keeping
original pronunciation, sometimes ignoring it.

Ah but the new hotness is trying to use the foreign pronunciation to sound erudite - but of course jacking it up because our 'elites' are really, really stupid.
Hence events in Milan are now in Milano, though Paris is still Paris because stupid.

Cache is a secret hiding place, and is just cache.
Cachet is a different word meaning a wax seal over a letter from a figure of authority, connoting importance. It evolved to just mean "a symbol of prestige." that one would be cash-AY.
Two different words. I think they're derived from the same root, something to do with being under something or sealed (hidden). But different words.

And the Eastern europeans are almost as bad with their use of the same letters (though they are totally different in English) so they end up with crazy names that have 32 consonants strung together when it's clear that they are pronouncing tons of vowels in between - but just refuse to write them down.

I've heard that word pronounced differently depending on how it's used, like pretty much everything else.
There's "kaysh" for stash or a storage place, or "cash" like a place to store info temporarily on a computer, then there's "cashay" which is some sort of lesser gravitas.

From context you sound like you're long the stock. So it benefits you, assuming you sell before the price returns to normal.

Heh - no, that's the problem, I don't. Had a Chinese woman I worked with try to explain how the pronunciation of ZHU was different than another word that sounded EXACTLY the same to me.
My bog Irish Yankee upbringing prevents me from getting those subtle nuances.

When they first happened, the only regs to govern classified them as toys and therefore the scooters, capable of almost 20 mph, were supposed to be sidewalks only.
Then they wrote some new rules, saying they are some class of MV and are only to be operated on sidewalks when there is no bike lane in the road.
If there is a bike lane, you can only operate there if the roadway speed limit is 30 mph. Otherwise, you gotta be on the sidewalk.
No helmets mandated, but you gotta have a DL.
Chicago just opened, and they cannot be on sidewalks, are restricted to certain areas, and you gotta have DL and helmet. None permitted in the loop, which seems wierd, because in Denver, the downtown business and hotel and shopping and dining districts are full of scooters.
Chicago says no scooters after 10 pm, which means they are pretty much out for bar to bar travel
