One of the more infamous to wear and badge and blue uniform will be spending some time behind bars. Having looked into former Chicago Police
Commander, Jon Burge, and his controversial police record, anytime time in prison is better than nothing. This man abused his authority to such
considerable lengths that I am astounded that it took so long for him to face the serious allegations against him.
I made an extensive thread about him that chronicled his notorious career. His crimes while in uniform regarding torture of alleged suspects seems to
have been taken right out of the Gestapo handbook. This man was brutal, and was more of a terror to the City of Chicago than the people he was
pursuing. Many were sent to prison by confessions while under duress as a result of torture, with some getting lengthy sentences, and in some cases
even the death penalty.
I am glad justice is served on this monstrosity. Still, his accomplices in the police department need to face similar treatment for their part in all
of this. As it stands now, only Burge has faced an indictment and sentencing for his misdeeds. What about the others? Hopefully, Burge is not sent to
some club Fed style prison that looks more like a university than the hoosegow. This man deserves what hard time has to offer.
