Foxx[2] (née Anderson; born April 1972) is a African American politician in the United States, currently serving as the State's Attorney for Cook County, Illinois. She manages the nation's second largest prosecutor's office and oversees an office of over nearly 800 attorneys and 1,500 employees. She was elected to this position on November 8, 2016. She is the second African American, after Cecil A. Partee, to hold this position.[3] Early life and educationFoxx was born in Chicago and grew up in the Cabrini-Green housing project on the Near-North side.[2] Raised by her mother and grandmother,[2] Foxx graduated from Lincoln Park High School in 1990.[1] She was previously chief of staff to Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle. Prior to that, she was an Assistant State's Attorney for Cook County. Foxx received her undergraduate and law degree from Southern Illinois University. She is a member of the board of Adler University. Electoral history2016Kim Foxx challenged incumbent Anita Alvarez in 2016, along with former federal and state prosecutor Donna More. On January 14, the Cook County Democratic Party endorsed Foxx for state's attorney.[4] She won the Democratic primary for state's attorney's race on March 15, 2016. Jussie Smollett case{{undue section|date=April 2019}}On February 19, 2019, Foxx announced that she had recused herself from the Jussie Smollett investigation, who was alleged to have orchestrated a staged assault and filed a false report with the local police, due to her "familiarity with potential witnesses in the case", a move that prompted criticism from her predecessor, Anita Alvarez.[5][6] Recusing herself would have required her to ask the court to appoint an outside attorney as a special prosecutor. Critics called her method of recusal insufficient, saying that because her office retained authority over the case, she maintained influence over how it was handled.[7] On March 26, 2019, her office dropped all charges against Smollett, which was denounced by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Police Superintendent Eddie T. Johnson.[8] The Chicago Police Union pushed for an investigation into Foxx’s decision.[9][10] Foxx was also criticized by the Illinois Prosecutors Bar Association president Lee Roupas[11] and Nelson Bunn, the Executive Director[12] of the National District Attorneys Association.[13] Chicago's Fraternal Order of Police called for her resignation.[14] Personal lifeKim Foxx has been married to Kelley Foxx[2] since 2001 (prior to that being Kim Anderson) and together they have two daughters.[15] She and her husband are the same age.[16] Election results{{Election box begin no change| title = Democratic primary results, Cook County State's Attorney, 2016[17] }}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change | candidate = Kim Foxx | party = Democratic Party (United States) | votes = 645,738 | percentage = 58.3% }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change | candidate = Anita Alvarez (Incumbent) | party = Democratic Party (United States) | votes = 317,594 | percentage = 28.7% }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change | candidate = Donna More | party = Democratic Party (United States) | votes = 144,063 | percentage = 13.8% }}{{Election box total no change | votes = 1,107,395 | percentage = 100.0% }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title = General election results, Cook County State's Attorney, 2016[18] }}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change | candidate = Kim Foxx | party = Democratic Party (United States) | votes = 1,459,087 | percentage = 72.06% }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change | candidate = Christopher E.K.
