After waiting for 26 years to earn his freedom, Alton Logan has learned some patience. Which is good, because we're pretty sure he'll be waiting for a while to get the official apology from Mayor Daley he's looking for. Daley was the State Prosecutor at the time Logan was convicted. Said Logan:
There's only one person whose mouth I want to hear that [apology] come out of, but I know he'll never say it... your mayor...He [Daley] was the man that signed the death certificate. That's the only apology I want. But I know I'll never get it.Well, at least he's realistic. For his part, Mayor Daley claims to not even remember the Logan case, claiming, "I have no idea [whether an apology is warranted]. You know how many cases we had in the state's attorney's office?" Logan also plans to pursue an official pardon from Gov. Blagojevich which would qualify him for $200,000 in compensation.
