In 2016, Jenkins was part of a team of lawyers from the United States Department of Justice that investigated the force practices of the Chicago Police Department, being part of the prosecution team in United States v. Aldo Brown.

The 7th Circuit subsequently affirmed Jenkins' ruling on November 4, 2023.
