A Chicago City
Council committee on Monday approved settling two more police
misconduct lawsuits, one involving allegations of extortion, the other of
coercion. If approved Wednesday by the full council, the tab for 11 police
cases settled since September will reach $10.85 million.
Had enough? Write to the Speaker of the House, U.S. House of Representatives, Washington, DC 20515 and demand federal
hearings into the police problem in America.
Demand mandatory body cameras for cops, one strike rule on abuse, and a
permanent DOJ office on Police
Misconduct.
