Justice Delayed

It took decades for one of the Chicago P.D.'s torturers to be made to answer for his crimes.

First off, I respectfully submit that anyone who believes that this clown was an outlier has shit for brains. Torture is the refuge of the lazy or the incompetent who cannot be bothered to procure proof of a charge. That this went on for a very long time without a peep being raised by anyone other than those who were tortured is a hell of an indictment against the Chicago Police Department, the officers who serve in it, the prosecutors, the judges and, last but not least, those birdcage-liners that one might laughingly call the Chicago press.

Second, if it wasn't for the field negro, I'd have missed this one. It seems to have gone out on the AP wire and then been ignored by everyone. Obtaining confessions by the use of torture was outlawed in 1936 in the case Brown v. Mississippi, which you should read. It's not a long opinion and it will give you a rather wrenching description of police torture back in the "good old days".

Does anyone not get that the charge by minorities that the cops sometimes act like they are part of an occupying army is grounded in fact?
