Prosecutors: Police and Smollett

prosecutors: Mayor Rahm Emanuel blasted the decision as a whitewash of justice and billed Smollett 130,000 for the cost of the police investigation, according to CTV. President Donald Trump called it a national embarrassment and promised a federal probe. Smollett saw his record wiped clean without offering so much as an apology. The Illinois Prosecutors Bar Association said it was an affront to prosecutors across the state. I've heard people saying the relationship is broken and fractured, but that is absolutely, patently false, police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said. But for all of the public fury, the two agencies that handled the case -- the Chicago Police Department and the Cook County State's Attorney's Office -- insist their relationship is strong, even if they didn't agree on the outcome.
