Not that it makes it better, but that's old news.
Cop is about to plea to mandatory jail time sentence.

hope he has a nice stay as he deserves it...lots of history w/ him as it wasn't the first time

It's unfair to have singled out Chicago. There seems to be a proliferation of these incidents throughout the country lately (although you are correct, we find out now what happened a year or more ago. What happens today and tomorrow we will find out about in the future). You can make a case that these things have always occurred, the only difference now is the internet and Youtube. It's just when I saw those news stories, I couldn't help but feel sickened by them. The woman who was forcibly stripped in Ohio, and the parapalegic man dumped from his wheel chair in Tampa are 2 others that are making the internet news recently as well.

I have a friend who's wife runs a banquet hall. There have only been 2 times that she has had any trouble. Both times it was when she was hosting something for cops. This last time she was punched. When her husband showed up they threatened to arrest him.

I hate to think what would have happened if there weren't any witnesses.
There's a supposed investigation. I'll be surprised if anything comes from it.
I think she will quit her job of 20 yrs before she will ever do anything involving them again.

I'm sure there are tons of stories that haven't been told.

I really never have had a use for them. The one time I called (I woke up to find my car sitting on the ground. My wheels were stolen) the cop accused me of staging the theft.

All they have ever done for me is pull me over because my name ends in a vowel and write speeding tickets.
