I knew what streets they were walking on and if I didn't like the sound of it yes, I was there. I was a huge PITA to them, all 4 boys will tell you that. My kids didn't get much freedom. Personally, I think it's over rated for young people.
If we could only get actual convictions and real prison time for cops.
Im not holding my breath for a conviction, but at least this time, they arent getting indicted for murder, ots for the coverup, and theyres no way the special prosecutor is going to let them off for this, they should be sunk. I just hope they actually go to jail for this. My question is, how did the special prosecutor get put to this case?

Van Dykes laywer was fingering everyone, that shows how dirty they all are. Its so bad the UNION has nothing to say.

You know this isn't the only time someone "got what they deserved" as the details of a particular shoot get changed to suit the officers needs.
This type of coverup happens alot, but we just dont see it. Everytime someone like Yanez or Van Dyke do something egregious they reword the report to make themselves look less culpable. People dont believe this type of this thing goes on, but behind closed doors departments do this on the regular. Thats why these guys got caught with their pants down because they got careless...they were getting away with it so often. Thats why Van Dyke has never been disciplined for all his complaints and lawsuits.
They're all in bed together - all these crooks. People blame the cops, and they're to blame, but they need to start blaming people all the way up to the top, too.
Emanuel opposes federal civil rights probe of Chicago police, admits 'mistakes':
So wait, they want police who were witnesses to the incident to interview other people who were witnesses to the incident? Am I the only one who thinks that's incredibly stupid? A defense attorney could rip that to shreds -- bias, coordination, witness tampering, just to name three angles off the top of my head they could attack those witness statements from.

Unbelievable. This takes victim/victim's parents blaming to a whole new level.
I don't know if his mother knew what streets he was walking on. It doesn't matter. It has nothing to do with the event. It didn't cause him to be shot in the back 16 or 17 times by cops, as he walked away from the middle of the street where they were standing.
You're grasping at straws with this - looking for some reason to blame anyone but the cops.

Cops are self-policing with their internal investigation b.s.
The system has to change. Too many of them are thugs with a license to kill. And the rest of them are criminals for remaining silent or agreeing to lie.
And the DOJ *investigated* and knew this and did nothing.

Rahm is damn liar #1 in all of this. Work your way down from there and then work your way back up to the DOJ and Loretta Lynch.
They should all be in prison.
