Sorry about your arrogance and ignorance, but that's not my problem. I've been doing work on this torture situation for the better part of 20 years and I know more about it than someone with a limited attention span and and spastic tongue like you will ever learn.. obviously.

Not only have I driven people home from 26th and Cal, but also Grand, Menard, Pontiac.. etc.

Again, it is not the job of the Police Superintendent to investigate, it is his job to report crimes to the States Attorney, and that is what he did.

Perhaps he could have done some more, and perhaps he did just enough to try and cover his own butt, but he did perform due diligence. Sure, he did his duty of investigating to a degree, but upon finding what he needed know he then turns it over up the chain of the legal command. That is the process. In short, he did his job.

It is the States Atty. who was/ is delinquent in their duties. They knew about a crime and they did NOTHING but cover it up for 30 years while they climbed their career ladders and put their spoilt kids through college with your money. They did not investigate it, which is what they are supposed to do, they did no interviews, they sought no evidence, they did nothing. In fact they were involved in recommending some of the torturers for promotions, and in fact Daley, while Mayor used a "merit promotion" program to promote O'Hara and Yucaitis to detectives, which means they did not have to take a test or go through the normal process of becoming detectives.

Oh? wait? you don't know who those guys are? They are the other two cops who were fired along with Burge, until the FOP (that's the Fraternal Order of Police, the Police Union, genius) fought for their jobs and won them back. Of course you knew that.

Here, maybe you can learn something from Flint Taylor, he is the key lawyer involved with these cases. He was on Democracy Now! this morning and he explains as much and more of what I described about Brzezcek and the States Atty. above.

He is a nice Middle Class white man with a Degree, I'm sure you can trust him.

I hope that we might see this situation as the opportunity to finally rid our progressive movement of people who want to defend the likes of Daley and Devine.
