Years after death involving Daley

She remembers the detective telling her, “Your son was drunk.”
The detective didn’t identify any of the people her son had run into that night, she says, but did tell her, “You’d be really impressed by the names of the people involved in this.”
“I said, ‘My son is dead. I don’t care who is involved in it.’ ”
The meeting lasted no more than half an hour. Koschman, who’s 62 and works as a secretary in a medical office, says it ended with the detective telling her that the people her son and his friends had run into that night had hired lawyers.
“All of their attorneys have been here,” she recalls him saying, “but your son’s [friends] came down with their mothers.”

So should Daley's nephew be prosecuted? I know of cases where a person hits the guy and the guy falls and hits his head on the ground. The person who throw the punch was prosecuted for assault and man slaughter. But Daley's nephew? Nothing.

If they got away with things in Michigan, what does that tell you about what will happen in C(r)ook County?

By John Kass and Peter Kendall | April 10, 1992
"Mayor Richard Daley's 16-year-old son, Patrick, pleaded guilty Friday to misdemeanor charges in connection with an unsupervised beer party and brawl at the mayor's Grand Beach, Mich., vacation home last month. During the melee, another teen's head was smashed with a baseball bat. That youth is recovering. Patrick Daley admitted to furnishing alcohol to minors and disturbing the peace. Berrien County, Ind., prosecutor Dennis Wiley announced that 14 other youths were charged with minor violations, including Patrick Daley's cousin, R.J. Vanecho, 17, who pleaded guilty to aiming a firearm without malice."
