Imagine the handful of incarcerated criminals who might deserve an early release. Yes, there are those who probably pose a minimal risk to others in the community. Last year, the Democrat-run Illinois legislature and governor approved a new law to allow prosecutors to petition for re-sentencing inmates deemed to deserve an early release.

With the new re-sentencing law in place, Soros-funded Cook County prosecutor Kim Foxx has put her mind to finding the most deserving cases. Here are three she’s found so far and decided they’ve been rehabilitated and are worthy of an early release.

CWB Chicago has the gory details . . .

Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx on Friday announced that her office will begin a resentencing initiative to win the early release of inmates who “have been rehabilitated and pose little threat to public safety.” The movement is possible under a law that Gov. JB Pritzker signed last summer.

Of all the inmates who might be in line for early release, Foxx’s office has settled on a convicted home invader, a convicted armed robber, and a convicted burglar. They all have lengthy criminal records, and two of them are violent records.

The most deserving of the three, Larry Frazier, committed a horrific home invasion just days after being released from his fifth stint in prison in 14 years. He shot a 63-year-old woman after telling her he was going to kill her.

According to federal prison records, reprinted by CWB Chicago . . .

A 63-year-old woman was moving items from her car to her Calumet City apartment when Frazier confronted her at the apartment with a coat over his hand.

“Give me your money. I’m gonna kill you,” he allegedly ordered as he entered the apartment and walked toward the woman.

“I can’t, Mister, I got arthritis,” she replied. She also didn’t have any money.

The woman tried to stall by pretending to look for valuables. Frazier opened her nightstand drawer and found her handgun. He pointed it at her and threatened to shoot her if she didn’t give him money.

She gave him a cookie tin full of pennies. He dumped it on the floor.

The woman ran at Frazier and grabbed the gun with both hands, fearing for her life. The gun fired. She was not injured. Frazier maintained control of the weapon.

“I’m gon’ kill you now,” he said as he put the gun to her head.

She begged for a chance to find money. He agreed. He demanded her car keys. She tossed them to him.

Then, she noticed a spot of blood on Frazier and realized he had been shot during the struggle for the gun. The woman bolted from the house and found two police officers in a nearby alley.

She “just ran up to [th]em and fell in their arms.”

The cops found Frazier slumped in a chair in the woman’s apartment, holding a jacket to his chest. The gun was under his chair. His fingerprints were found on the cookie tin and testing revealed that a gun was fired from within 12 inches of the coat he was wearing.

He was sentenced to 60 years for the 1995 crime.

Then there’s Charles Miles, who a judge called a “kind of friendly burglar.” He broke into an apartment in 2014 occupied by a woman and her daughter. The husband was at work and the 6’4″, 300-pound burglar woke up the wife in her bedroom as he made the floor creak.  He had been in the apartment for some time and had a collected a bunch of loot, ready to go out the window of a room which led to the fire escape.

Roland Reyes rounds out Foxx’s trio, a career armed robber and burglar. He was sentenced to 30 years in 2008 for an aggravated robbery during which the victim was injured.

From the CWB story . . .

In 2019, inmates participating in the Illinois River Correctional Center re-entry program voted to give Reyes that year’s “Embodiment Award” as “the participant who is the complete embodiment of what the re-entry program is truly about.”

Obviously some folks will be watching to see how long these convicts will remain on the straight and narrow once they’re released. Given that 83% of prisoners reoffend within nine years, the odds don’t look good for the good people in Cook County, Illinois.

  1. Quote—————- Soros-funded Cook County prosecutor Kim Foxx ———-quote

    Let us see proof she received any money at all from Soros.

    Bosh seems to think that even people who voted for Social Security Benefits were funded by Joseph Stalin.

    Or those people that were in favor of voting rights for minorities were also funded by Soros. I wish I had got money from him but no checks yet.

  2. What is the importance of “Soros”, here?

    In what way is Foxx “Soros-funded”, and by how much?

    What is the evidence that this “Soros funding” is influencing anything about anyone’s actions?

    … Besides rank anti-semitism, I mean. That part is obvious.

    Oh, and riling up all the rubes in the comments here. That’s VERY obvious.

    • The importance of Soros is, he hates America, he hates freedom, he hates everyone who isn’t a Jewish Nazi. He funds programs to undermine society in America, and around the world. One of the richest SOBs in the world – filthy rich with blood money he stole from his fellow Jews during WW2. He hates life itself. Everything he touches is evil. If Soros funds your political campaign, then you have sold your soul to the devil.

      Do you need more detail?

      • Jewish NAZI?? Somewhat of an oxymoron if I might say so or in YOU particuarly illiterate rant a MORON no ‘oxy’ required. SOROS always acts within the law and is nothing more than a successful financiewr who puts his money where his mouth is and into what he considers as being for the Common good You do not have to agree with much of what he does and I don’t , after all this is the man who ‘crashed’ the UK £GB out of the European Exchange Rates Mechanism. But that does not mean he is an enemy of the USA just because you do not agree with his record in backing harsher Gun Control measures and a fairer society.
        You are entitled to your opinions but that is not an excuse for you to indulge in illinformed and unwarranted character assassination. I’d have to say that SOROS is a far greater supporter of personal freedoms that you will ever be.
        Personally one of MY own favourite PERSONAL FREEDOMD is to walk the streets here in the UK without fear rhhat some ignorant gun freak will take pot shots at me.

        • Albert Hall ,, your funny.
          You should come and visit the U.S. sometime. Not everywhere is someone taking pot shots at you, that’s big city stuff.

        • Probably dodging wannabe jihadis who want to stab him after being hit by a car. And the plods won’t do a thing to help because it would be racist to interfere in “their way”.

        • Hey, idiot. Is Soros Jewish? Did Soros also aid and abet in the capture and killing of Jews? Did Soros also enrich himself with the treasures confiscated from those Jews?

          Yes, Soros is a Jewish Nazi.

    • Soros does not represent any religion. He is an old school fascist and one of their standard game plans is to recruit from criminal and mental institutions. See the records of the SS/antifa troops that Rittenhouse shot for example.

      The end game is to create enough chaos and crime on the street as possible so that citizens will beg for more and more .gov until they live in a police state.

      Useful tools such as yourself simply enable fascism.

        • “But, sir, sirs, I see that it’s wrong. It’s wrong because it’s against like society, it’s wrong because every veck on earth has the right to live and be happy without being beaten and tolchocked and knifed. I’ve learned a lot, oh really I have.”

      • Som where has SOROS actually recruited from crimials and the mentally challenged AS I remember . and I was as a kid. [I’m now in my mid eighties ] at the REAL RECEIVING end of FASCISM courtesy of ther LUFTWAFFE Wher I li9ved in nEAST SUSSEX we were, apart from the big cities in the UK, THE most bombed region of the United Kingdom.
        All you Yank’s can do is IMAGINE FASCISM I know FASCISM as it is. What a load of idiots you are!! Anybody who does not agree with you is s either a ‘COMMIE’ or a FASCIST and you have no bloody idea what either are. In all of history THREE bombs dropped by a forgien power have dropped on the USA.
        Here in Europe especially in the UK France and Spain we have been dealing with various forms of TERRORISM for a hundred years but one successful incident as inn 9/11 sends you into panic. Sure it was a tragedy but Americans had been supporting the EXTREME LEFT WING PROVISIONAL IRISH REPUBLICAN ARMY for decades because you saw them as some kind of heroes fighting a cruel colonial power.
        Think on this The UK IMMEDIATELY came to your support and stood shoulder to shoulder with America whilst you had been funding the terrorists who killed pregnant women, UK soldiers, innocent men and women in the streets, in nsaloons and on public transport and YOU supplied the guns, ammunition amd explosives to do it

        • ” Think on this The UK Immediately came to your support and stood shoulder to shoulder ” ? ?
          When was that and what did the UK do?

        • @ Albert

          What the heck are you ranting about? Most of what you wrote is bordering in incoherent, and the rest embellished anecdotal gibberish.

          Were you drunk when you wrote this?

        • .40 cal, he had too many gin-and-tonics at the gentleman’s club while “Madam Lash” was giving him a damned good thrashing (for therapeutic purposes).

    • Left-wing billionaire mega-donor George Soros donated $408,000 in 2016 to a super PAC that supported Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx.

      State campaign finance records show that Soros also personally contributed a total of $333,000 to Foxx’s super PAC before the March 15, 2016 primary was over, and an additional $75,000 after she won.

      $408,000 + $333,000 + $75,000 = $816,000.00 from Soros to back Kim Foxx in 2016.

      In 2020, George Soros gave $2 million to a PAC backing Kim Foxx.

      And even today Soros continues to pour millions of dollars into local races for district attorney, backing “progressive” democrat candidates who are opposing more traditional law-and-order prosecutors and into backing Kim Foxx.

      That’s how Foxx is Soros funded. Without the Soros money and influence Kim Foxx would not be in office today.

      Kim Foxx is bought and paid for by Soros.

      • note for : “And even today Soros continues to pour millions of dollars into local races for district attorney”

        that should have been

        “And even today Soros continues to pour millions of dollars into local races for district attorney across the nation…”

  3. Yeah, these are the guys I’m inviting over for dinner this Sunday. Ser one of them. Go orange. Be ready for red.

    • “But, sir, sirs, I see that it’s wrong. It’s wrong because it’s against like society, it’s wrong because every veck on earth has the right to live and be happy without being beaten and tolchocked and knifed. I’ve learned a lot, oh really I have.”

  4. A ‘re-sentencing’ negates the decision made by the original 12 in the jury (for the ones that get that). This looks so completely like a double-jeopardy type of thing our constitution was amended to remove.

    While we have someone trying to get into our highest court that is more interested in ‘president’ than in the US Constitution.

  5. Possum! Didn’t know you frequented the Cannes Film Festival. Good to know there is culture in the Heartland!

  6. As I’ve said 100 times now…..the ONLY way this nonsense will stop is when the “reformed” thugs start targeting people like Foxx and Pritzker!!

  7. Think of it as evolution in action. The majority of the citizens were stupid enough to vote for the DA.

    • Whatever. At least they’re old. I’m pretty well set protection wise in Cook county. We’re so sorry uncle Albert. You’re a Dumbazz…

  8. This is great news. Send the vermin back to the community that spawned them and voted for grifters like Kim Foxx. Let these animals commit crime after crime. Who cares? Not me.

    As for the community, Jefferson said it best — the government you elect is the government you deserve. Chitcago, you deserve this. Good and hard.

    • Cook County has been run by corrupt dems for what 100 years?
      If they didn’t see the bs they deserve to step in it.
      That ain’t gonna be easy to scrape off your shoes.

  9. There are reasons Hungary would like Mr. Soros to step foot on their soil. Stemming from his selling out his fellow Jews to the NAZI’s for personal profit. While his business dealings were more or less legal, much of his business was less than above board and honest.
    Soros has paid out huge sums into leftist political organizations in his desire to bring about some bastardized version of a socialist, 1 world government. Of course with him, his offspring, or his chosen surrogates running things.

  10. This idiot wants to give convicted criminals an early release via “resentencing”? Just goes to show that the Leftists will stop at nothing to thwart the Criminal Justice System!

  11. In November 2019, attorney Joseph diGenova, who is known for promoting conspiracy theories about the Department of Justice and the FBI,[180] asserted on Fox News without evidence that Soros “controls a very large part of the career foreign service of the United States State Department” and “also controls the activities of FBI agents overseas who work for NGOs – work with NGOs. That was very evident in Ukraine.”[181] Soros’s Open Society Foundation described diGenova’s claims as “beyond rhetorical ugliness, beyond fiction, beyond ludicrous” and requested that Fox News provide an on-air retraction of diGenova’s claims, and stop providing diGenova with a platform.[182] Although the network never publicly announced it had banned him, diGenova has not appeared on Fox following the incident.[183] In September 2020, diGenova suggested that Fox News is also controlled by Soros.[183]

  12. “Liberalism is a mental disorder, and it will get us all killed.”
    – M. Savage, radio talk show host

  13. Tell Vladimir Puto – oops, I mean Putin – that he can have a neutral Ukraine and the end of all sanctions if he agrees to stop the bombing, recognize the Zelensky government, and nuke Chitcago. It’s a creative solution and a win-win-win for all three countries.

    Even Fat Jay Pritzker will agree as long as he can make a few bucks off the deal.

  14. I don’t get it. What’s in it for him to have US cities be soft on violent crime? How does he benefit?

  15. Soros is a supporter of progressive and liberal political causes, to which he dispenses donations through his foundation, the Open Society Foundations.[19] Between 1979 and 2011, he donated more than $11 billion to various philanthropic causes;[20][21] by 2017, his donations “on civil initiatives to reduce poverty and increase transparency, and on scholarships and universities around the world” totaled $12 billion.[22] He influenced the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s,[23] and provided one of Europe’s largest higher education endowments to the Central European University in his Hungarian hometown.[24]

    His extensive funding of political causes has made him a “bugaboo of European nationalists”.[25] The New York Times reported in October 2018 that “conspiracy theories about him have gone mainstream, to nearly every corner of the Republican Party”.[26] Numerous American conservatives have promoted false claims that characterize Soros as a singularly dangerous “puppet master” behind many alleged global plots.[26][27][28][29] Conspiracy theories targeting Soros, who is of Jewish descent, have often been described as antisemitic.[30][31][32]

  16. The article raises the question:
    How do we really know a convict has been rehabilitated?
    There are some convicts who leave prison rehabilitated and don’t commit crimes again.
    But as far as I can tell, there’s no way to tell who has been rehabilitated. Especially among repeat offenders. It’s too bad that the resentencing initiative doesn’t include penalties for prosecutors who get it wrong.

  17. If they let them out early they the judge or prosecutor should serve their remaining sentences! At least give the public a front page warning when they release the garbage on the public. Shitcago is the next Detroit on steroids!!!

  18. The Soros trolls are out in force on this one. Here are some historical facts that the trolls conveniently won’t talk about: Starting roughly twenty years ago, George Soros and his ‘One World Order’ organization decided to target America’s social, legal and economic system of government in order to destabilize and destroy it. America’s strong economic, social, and legal system was standing in their way of dominating the Western world. They adopted the tactic of ‘the enemy from within’ by using America’s electoral to put their people in strategic political positions to make and enforce (or not enforce) laws that destabilize and destroy America’s legal, social and economic system of government.

  19. COST MONEY TO KEEP THEM OLD CRIMINALS IN JAIL , WHY NOT JUST USE OLD SPARKY AND END THEIR MISERABLE LIFE OF BEING VIOLENT CRIMINALS .
