Red-Light Cameras Not So Special?
The Saga of the Teen Cop Impersonator has finally come to a conclusion. We think. The 15-year-old teen that impersonated a police officer earlier this year has been sentenced to three years probation. The teen, who was 14 when he was arrested for the impersonation, appeared in juvenile court today where Juvenile Court Judge Andrew Berman handed down the sentence and offered this stern warning: "One of the things that you have done, and have been very candid about, is you like to manipulate other people and situations. That's going to stop right now. You are not going to manipulate me. If you mess up with this probation ... to say nothing of if you get arrested, that's it. Next stop is the Department of Corrections."
The sentencing also covers the bizarre May incident in which he took a joy ride in a Lexus. Other conditions of the teen's probation involve participation in a mentoring program as well as 30 days of home confinement. [Chicago Breaking News, Sun-Times]

I absolutely guarantee that within six months this fool will be caught impersonating a cop, security guard, bus driver or someone else that wears a uniform for work!
Then he will finally go where he belongs, the Graybar Hotel!
I think this is going to be an "I told you so" situation. This person should be confined.
Was that racist, Chuck?
This kid will have an automatic admission to the Chicago Police Academy when's he's 18. He was only doing what a lot of Chicago cops do best; impersonating a police officer.
