Here’s some breaking Jussie Smollett news from ABC 7 in Chicago. You know how State’s Attorney Kim Foxx threw out the charges against Smollett and sealed his case file? Now Foxx is saying her office never asked for the court file to be sealed … it was just an accident.

BREAKING: State’s Atrorney Kim Foxx says her office did not ask that the court file be sealed, says it was done inadvertently and she believes it is in the process of being unsealed ⁦@ABC7Chicago⁩ pic.twitter.com/ECrI70JAdG — Craig Wall ABC 7 (@craigrwall) March 27, 2019

Then why @SAKimFoxx did the order get amended once it became clear it didn’t include the cops? Do judges usually grant things NO ONE asked for? — commonsense (@commonsense258) March 27, 2019

How is it possible to inadvertently add conditions? Don’t forms need to be filled out? Doesn’t the judge have to respond to a request? — El Zurdo (@dhunt245) March 27, 2019

inadvertently sealed, and again inadvertently followed up with a second order that included the police report? that's the worst excuse ever. — Ryan Collins (@RyanCol98669386) March 27, 2019

The Cook County clerk’s office told ABC Tuesday they were “shocked” that no written motions were filed with the court in connection with the dismissal of charges against Smollett.

Who did it inadvertently? — Brian (@EasthampBrian) March 27, 2019

Jussie probably just asked for it personally and the judge said "Done! Anything else we can do?" — Dan (@DanOfTheCoast) March 27, 2019

So the lies & mistakes just continue to roll out of her office. OMG!! — MovingForward (@HappyTraveler48) March 27, 2019

Right… ??? Glad the police ‘unsealed’ the files for her.??? — L Butler #DontCairForOmar (@LauraButler6) March 27, 2019

Oh and I imagine that all the access logs, computer backups, and video surveillance camera footage just happened to all get wiped clean (like with a cloth) so we will never know how Jussie's records got inadvertently sealed. #Corruption — PoxOnTheDNC ❌ (@PoxOnTheDNC) March 27, 2019

She's as bad a story teller as Jussie pic.twitter.com/ZPBf7fLVl7 — #BelieveEvidence (@MeganFoxWriter) March 27, 2019

Jussie must have helped her with that tale, it's just soooooo convincing. — Zoe Tanvi Alusa (@ZoeTAlusa) March 27, 2019

Really? Does this debacle ever end? I am sure it wasn’t inadvertently sealed. It was intentionally sealed but now that she received severe blow back, she’s walking back. — Becky (@BeckyRao15) March 27, 2019

Sounds totally legit and not like somebody attempting to cover their tracks at all. — Brand Banning (@BradyJohnny2) March 27, 2019

Uh huh. — pistrix (@pistrix) March 27, 2019

I believe ever other word this woman says. — Al Copersino (@acopersi) March 27, 2019

I heard that she hired two Nigerian brothers to seal the case. — Tag Sherman (@TagSherman) March 27, 2019

Pathological liars. Unreal — Nonexistent Ducey/Sinema Voter ? (@PhxGOP) March 27, 2019

Judge needs a ethics investigation. — Gary Dismang (@garydizz) March 27, 2019

This is someone that should definitely not have a future in politics. — Stephanie Easland (@sdeasland1) March 27, 2019

Lol, @KimFoxxforSA over the past 36 hours has ruined any chance she had to be reelected. You couldn't kill ur political career if you tried any harder. — Tim Apple (@teakbucki62) March 27, 2019

Is she in the process of resigning yet? — Rogue198 (@rogue198) March 27, 2019

When the unsealing occurs we’ll see who asked for it. Then she’s pic.twitter.com/fAsRATmoTY — Unverif*edRando (@AuburnJulia) March 27, 2019
