Red-Light Cameras Not So Special?
In a move that surprised absolutely no one, former Chicago Police Commander Jon Burge pled not guilty this morning to charges of obstruction of justice and perjury in connection to alleged cases of police torture. May 11 was set as the trial date by U.S. District Judge Joan Humphrey Lefkow. Mayor Daley has yet to issue any statement on this latest development, sassy or otherwise, but we can save you the time and boil it down to this ahead of time: "It wasn't my fault!"

Riiiiiiiiiight, except that instead of the guy they have in custody now, he'd have someone he grabbed off the street. Sign, sealed, delivered and a bit worse for wear. Pay no attention to the bruises, burns and cuts.
lulz....

I knew I'd sniff out at least one person around here who takes the words of some of the worst criminals in the city over a highly decorated police officer.
Oooooo looky. I just remembered I had this:
