'I won't raise my son here': Chicago prosecutor quits job over crime
Jason Poje, formerly of Cook County State Attorney's Office, slammed bond reform which means dangerous crooks are released onto the streets, shorter parole periods and soft sentences.www.dailymail.co.uk
"I will not raise my son here. I am fortunate enough to have the means to escape, so my entire family is leaving the State of Illinois. I grew up here, my family and friends are here, and yet my own employer has turned it into a place from which I am no longer proud to be, and in which my son is not safe."
Poje outlined a series of 'so-called reforms' backed by Lightfoot and Illinois Governor J. B. Pritzker which he said had inevitably led to more crime.
Poje wrote: 'The worst part is that the agency for whom I work has backed literally every policy change that has the predictable, and predicted, outcome of more crime and more people getting hurt."
