Chicago Police Dismissed a Recruit’s Claims That a Colleague Sexually Assaulted Her. Then He was Accused Again and Again.

The Invisible Institute and ProPublica reviewed over 300 complaints accusing Chicago officers of sexual assault and misconduct.

Time and time again, the police department downplayed or ignored claims, enabling officers to become repeat offenders.

I’m afraid this is going to be the new “normal” in America.
Fight it, and fight it hard, remove #Trump with all means or get used to it.
Justice is gone in America, prepare for the worst.

@ericschutte no.

Trump isn't in charge of the Chicago police department, and too often folks are distracted by drama surrounding Trump so the ones actually responsible escape accountability.

By design the presidency is a relatively minor part of the US. Unfortunately, presidents get to serve as distractions while real perps get away with it.

I mean yes. I'm right. That's how the US system is set up.

The president is not a king, we have various independent governments and branches of governments Trump is very far from being in charge of that police department. Very many layers of government away from it.
