Next week, voters will choose her successor.
Foxx announced months ago she would not be seeking re-election.
She came into office in 2016 with a surge of so-called progressive prosecutors.
Her tenure has been marked by almost constant criticism…but it also marked a historic shift in Cook County’s approach to crime and justice.
WBEZ criminal justice editor Patrick Smith covered Foxx throughout her time in office and joins me now.
