Chicago's Lori Lightfoot slammed over crime pivot following ousting: 'Too little too late'

Retired Chicago police lieutenant John Garrido slammed outgoing Mayor Lori Lightfoot for her pivot on violent crime, warning the shift is 'too little too late.'

Retired Chicago police lieutenant John Garrido accused Lightfoot of refusing to take accountability for the Windy City's surging crime under her leadership during "Fox & Friends Weekend." Bailee Hill is an associate editor with Fox News Digital. Story ideas can be sent to bailee.hill@fox.com 

"Too little, too late," Garrido told co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy on Sunday. "If you listen to her entire speech there, she doesn't take any accountability whatsoever. She still blames everything on Kim Foxx and on Judge Evans."

"I assume she's probably jockeying for some type of position, maybe some point, and maybe Biden gets involved and gives her something. I'm not sure exactly what she's looking for, but she definitely always likes to point the finger at everybody else," he continued. "It's always somebody else's fault. Even when she lost the election, it was somebody else's fault, not her own, but she created the toxic work environment that we have now that's causing thousands of officers to leave every year."
