Judge- Black Democrat
Prosecutor- Black Democrat
I've read that Michelle Obama rang the judge during the trial.
Can't confirm that. Her aide was certainly the go-between between Smollett and the prosecutor. When caught colluding the prosecutor said she was recusing herself from the trial. Later when it was pointed out that when she recused herself she should have appointed a special prosecutor she said, 'I didn't actually recuse myself, I just used the term in a colloquial sense'.
These people are amoral scum.
At least, between this and the muRussia fiasco, the scales must be falling from the eyes of the most rabid anti-Trumpers.
