Paul Vallas: What can be done to restore faith in Chicago’s justice system? – Chicago Tribune*

"Chicago and Cook County leaders have allowed the city to devolve into a refuge for those who repeatedly commit serious crimes and face virtually no consequences. ... The SAFE-T Act was framed as a tool for fairness but has instead undermined community security."

Read the CWB Chicago article about the Cook County judge who was convicted of swindling a 95-yr-old Tuskegee Airman. Gee, she’s a shining example.
And why is there no online access to criminal records? Is it because Chicago is a haven for criminals? Methinksso.
