 | It's a sad time to be a good cop. No matter what a good cop does, a bad cop shows up. Case in point are the Chicago cops that made themselves at home in Congressman Bobby Rush’s burglarized campaign office in a South Side strip mall that was being looted. 13 Chicago police officers — including three supervisors — slept on a couch, munched popcorn, drank coffee and chit chatted about their taxpayer funded awesomeness while looters ransacked the strip mall. “You know who you are. You know what you did. Don’t make us come find you,” the mayor said, during a news conference. |

“The 'sheer number of convictions' that have been entered into evidence conclusively prove that many members and associates of the East End, Kelowna and Nanaimo chapters of the Hells Angels have committed serious criminal offences,” Justice Davies wrote.
“That 'sheer number of convictions' does not, however, prove that any of the offending was done at the direction of or for the benefit of any of those chapters or the Hells Angels as an organization." The judge noted the HA has a reputation for violence that is "at times used by members for the purposes of intimidation." |
