Red-Light Cameras Not So Special?
Two men, Ronald Kitchen and Marvin Reeves, have been freed by a judge who ruled in favor of their claims they were wrongfully convicted on the basis of false confessions that were beaten out of them as a result of torture during the tenure of former police commander Jon Burge. The two were convicted in the 1988 quintuple murder of two women and three children. The Illinois Attorney General's office backed the mens' request for release. [WBBM]

I have no idea if they were tortured or not... But I'll be damned if I trust a judge and prosecutors to do the right thing.
And now these two clowns are going to be Chicago's newest millionaires. Thanks, Burge.
