We're the Only Ones Planting Enough

Chicago Police are accused of offering a crooked "get out of jail free" card. The catch? A woman says she was told to plant a gun for it. Now the city has paid her $50,000 in a settlement, and the cops have been suspended without pay. CBS 2's Suzanne Le Mignot explains. [More]
That's strange...since when don't "Authorized Journalists" tell us the names of "the officers"...?

That was a joke and I know it's not particularly funny.

Besides, maybe these particular "Only Ones" have more than 10 complaints against them, which invokes an extra-special level of privacy for their public acts.

Why?

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

"They have trial dates in December. After the trial, the police board will decide if the officers can keep their jobs."-from the article.


I noticed two things. One, the fix is in. Don't think so? Well, you would be wrong. The very fact that the police board is already assuming a "not guilty" verdict is telling. If they were not assuming such, it is way too early to be making plans to consider their continued employment. Incarcerated convicts cannot perform police duties. Yet, that possibility hasn't even been considered by the police board. The fix is in.

Two, not one word about investigations into other arrests and warrant services made by these crooked cops. Does anybody really believe they got caught the very first time they did something like this? I sure as Hell don't.
