Let's hope this is the start of a trend. Federal carjacking and gun charges are filed against 3 alleged hijackers, including one who hid in a Northwestern Medical School building - CWB Chicago
Since Kim Foxx can't be bothered to prosecute criminals in the Illinois courts, maybe the US attorney can convince people of the error of their ways.
Two of guys who were arrested after a carjacking had been arrested previously and pleaded guilty to felony unlawful use of a firearm. One guy got 18 months of probation. The other got 24 months of probation. I can't even pretend to be shocked that when they faced no consequences for crime, then they went on to perpetrate more crime.
“Our message to would-be carjackers is simple,” U.S. Attorney John Lausch said in a statement. “Committing a senseless act of violence like carjacking will earn you a home in federal prison for a long time.”
Three men face FEDERAL charges for carjacking and something to do with firearms. (It isn't specified.) Federal firearms charges are typically associated with long sentences. And while there is a federal prison in Indiana, there is nothing to say the feds will send them there.
Someone has to try and bring order back to the streets of Chicago, and all indications are that Kim Foxx is not going to be a part of that solution.
