CHICAGO—The union representing Chicago police officers along with more than a dozen suburban chiefs of police called for the resignation of Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx, whose office last week dismissed all charges against actor Jussie Smollett.
The calls on Thursday come amid a wave of criticism of Ms. Foxx—from everyone from Mayor Rahm Emanuel to President Trump—for her office’s handling of the case, in which the “Empire” actor was accused of staging a hate crime against himself.
