Kim Foxx’s vision: Automatically erase more serious convictions for weed dealing, expunge cocaine or heroin arrests – Chicago Sun-Times*

Asked whether she would advocate for expunging convictions for possession of those harder drugs, Foxx answered “yes” — as long as it’s part of a larger, progressive approach to handling addiction. “If we recognize substance abuse disorder as a health condition, then we must modify our justice system to treat it as such. Criminalizing health is not in the interest of public safety.”

I believe that few in the Chicago region support this insane approach to criminal justice reform.
