CHICAGO — Cook County district attorney Kim Foxx will be deposed by a man who was wrongfully convicted of murder in 1996, ruled an Illinois federal court. The formerly incarcerated man says Chicago police detectives and an assistant state attorney framed him for the murder, and says Foxx talked with him when he was still imprisoned in 2022 about how he was “coming home.” She says he only told him to “hold tight” while his case was reviewed; she may be deposed for an hour over this one prison conversation.
