The mama was posting about all of the trips she goes on, cabo, disney, etc. and all the party buses she goes out on every week. As one copper pointed out, with a couple of kids on a copper salary there are no vacations. Yet that guy (and all of us taxpayers) bust our asses while mama goes out partaaaaying and vacationing all year long. now these mutts think they hit the ghetto lottery with a lawsuit. the party bus must be in full force this week.
2011
Some Black guy and a black woman involved. Guy robs a McDonalds, and takes a white woman hostage at the register. Tells server to give him money or he will shoot the woman. Guy then jumps into a getaway car driven by black woman. Police called. They try to get the car pulled over at a gas station, but the black woman driver decides to take off and almost runs over a cop. Cop ends up shooting at her and hits her twice. She keeps driving away.
She finally pulls over, and a cop approaches her with gun drawn. She gets out of the car, and he grabs here and takes her down. She starts resisting so they taze her.
CPD was cleared 5 years ago of any wrongdoing. It was a standard, trained take-down maneuver.
Fast forward to today....
The new head of police, whom Rahm hand picked over 3 other people, has been telling people that he essentially wont be Rahm's puppet. That was all bullshit.
He just announced that the two officers involved with taking this woman down to the ground, are being investigated. The head of police called the video "Concerning" <jesus fucking christ....this guy already lost all of the backing of the cops. He is a worthless puppet of Rahms>
So, she failed to follow commands of the police, she fled, with an armed felon who just robbed the McDonalds, tried to run over/kill a cop, and they are investigating the cop?!!!
The mother of the woman "wants justice".
How about teaching your fucking daughter not to break the law?

Here is a comment that was made by former CPD officer:
"This criminal attempted to kill police officers with a car for which she was justifiably shot. That she pulled over almost immediately has zero bearing on the officer's actions. She failed to follow verbal direction and was taken down with a move taught to each and every police officer currently on the job - the "emergency takedown." Any and every piece of clothing or limb or even hair is fair game, especially in a life-or-death situation on the street, to enforce compliance with lawful verbal direction given to an offender.
You can see her kicking and failing to submit to handcuffing, which means she was justifiably tasered. It's right there in the Use of Force model and in keeping with the training and directives taught to every officer currently on the job. She pled guilty to 12 years and her accomplice got 25 years.
The video is "concerning"? No, your willingness to reopen a five-year-old case already adjudicated as "Justified" to satisfy the political whims of a mayor who suppressed a video for his own political gain is concerning. There is nothing "concerning" in the video and quite frankly, it ought to be used as a training aid to show the immense restraint of the officers involved. But you're willing to put them in the Rahm-trick-bag in order to remove media attention from the promotion of your girlfriend and her buddies at IAD?"
this head of CPD likely assisted his GF in passing a promotion exam, by getting her access to the answers. This town is a fucking joke
the woman who was robbed chimed in

How the hell do you expect any police to want to do ANYTHING when you are going to come after them more than you do the actual criminals?

Old black man who mugged an old lady on Chicago North Side, has technically been given 91 years of prison sentences since 1981. They keep letting him out on early parole.
...this fucking city...
Another officer shot, and another was cut. Both should make it. In surgery.
From this afternoon

jesus christ drk this thread is depressing as fuck.
by midnight tonight, I believe that Chicago, in just the last week, will have had around 9/10 homicides and over 100 people shot, including a cop.
Im pretty sure 90% of countries dont have that in a year.
Ever wonder why Chicago's police department now has the ACLU all up its ass? Perhaps because of too many incidents like this from not so long ago.
http://stopthedrugwar.org/chronicle/...ry_indictments
There is more discussion of this incident, as well as the broader matter of how the War on Drugs encourages awful behaviour by police like this specific case, in the article.Video Killed the Drug Conviction: Chicago Narcs Busted Lying Through Their Teeth
It was just another marijuana bust by Chicago's crack dope squad and should have resulted in an easy conviction, but thanks to a forgotten camera, things didn't exactly work out the way the cops planned. Now, the pot dealer is free, he has a bunch of cash in pocket, and it's the cops who are facing justice.
It went down on June 6, 2013, when three Chicago Police narcotics officer and a pair of suburban Glenview police officers pulled over Joseph Sperling on the pretext that he had failed to properly use his turn signal, then claimed Sperling told them there were drugs in his vehicle. The cops said they found marijuana in plain view and arrested Sperling on marijuana possession and distribution charges. Business as usual, so far.
But when it came time to go to court the following March, things went south for the cops. Prosecutors had been questioning Chicago PD narcotics officer William Pruente, who said in sworn testimony that when police pulled over Sperling they immediately smelled marijuana and ordered him to exit the vehicle and stand at the rear of the car.
Then, defense attorney Steven Goldman asked the veteran narc if Sperling was handcuffed after he got out of the car.
"No, he was not handcuffed," Pruente replied. "He was not under arrest at that time."
Chicago narcotic officers Sergeant James Padar and Vince Morgan and Glenview Police officers James Horn and Sergeant Theresa Urbanowski backed up Pruente's story.
Then, as Urbanowski was testifying, defense attorney Goldman dropped a bombshell. He interrupted the testimony to inform Judge Catherine Haberkorn that he needed to offer a videotape into evidence.
In a moment of courtroom drama like something out of "Law and Order," Goldman revealed that the video came from Urbanowski's police cruiser and that it flatly contradicted the sworn testimony of the police officers. The police had been lying to the court and to the judge and the video would prove it, Goldman said.
As Goldman patiently took Urbanowski back over the events she'd testified about, he played the recording and asked her to describe the difference between her original testimony and what was happening on the tape.
The footage contradicted the testimony of the police officers. Pruente had testified that Sperling had not been arrested or handcuffed until the cops had found the dope in plain view, but the video showed Pruente walking up to Sperling's car, reaching in the open window, unlocking the door, pulling Sperling out, handcuffing him, and placing him in the back seat of a patrol car. Only then did the officers move to search the car.
The video clearly showed the officers spending minutes thoroughly searching Sperling's car before finding weed and a small amount of psychedelic mushrooms in a black duffel bag.
As defense attorney Goldman noted during questioning, if the drugs had really been in plain view on the front seat of the vehicle, the officers had no need or reason to search it because they already had the drugs.
The brazen distance between the officers' testimony and what the video revealed infuriated Judge Haberkorn, who immediately granted Goldman's motion to suppress the evidence because the video showed police had neither probable cause to arrest Sperling nor a warrant to search his vehicle.
"This is very outrageous conduct," Haberkorn said from the bench. "All the officers lied on the stand today. All their testimony is a lie. There is strong evidence it was a conspiracy to lie in this case, for everyone to come up with the same lie."
Haberkorn then dismissed the criminal charges against Sperling.
"If this could happen to me, it could happen to anyone," said Sperling, then 23, during a press conference with reporters after the release of his videotaped arrest. "I just happen to be one of the lucky few that had a video that proved the officers were wrong."

I hate situations like this.
1. The cops did something shady in order to get an arrest. Punish them severely.
2. The guy they busted was actually guilty, and now gets to go free and sue.
You don't seem to understand the notion of civil rights. Because I am sure that a huge proportion of white folks in the suburb where you live are doing illegal shit, but we don't see the cops regularly violating their civil rights to illegally arrest them and throw them into the teeth of the justice system.
Instead, they go for the low hanging fruit of folks who usually don't have the means to fight the injustice of the illegal police activities that don't do anything to actually get drugs off the street, but advance the careers of many many law enforcement personnel, including the cops in this case.

huh?
How do I not understand civil rights?
also, I probably have more blacks living in my building than you in your entire town. NW burbs of Chicago
What exactly do you think Im not understanding? The cops violated his rights and should be punished.

Answer me this you idiot...
How many people has this happened to where the victim had nothing in their car after the search and then they were either let go or arrested for some other made up bullshit?...the video showed Pruente walking up to Sperling's car, reaching in the open window, unlocking the door, pulling Sperling out, handcuffing him, and placing him in the back seat of a patrol car. Only then did the officers move to search the car.
Obviously, it's had to have happened many times unless you think the cops of psychic powers and somehow only manage to do this to people they pull over that they can magically tell have drugs stashed in their car. That's why they get punished severely. It's not about this one instance moron. It's about how they do their job in general or do you actually believe this was a one time thing?
Clearly, they've violated way more innocent peoples civil rights doing this bullshit than they have actually violated them first, then found something and the perp got let free. Not to mention flat out lying to the judge...
The fact that you can see these types of things is embarrassing.
