LOL I watched the video and read the articles. The cop did display poor judgement but I have to cut him some slack because, IMHO, he was dealing with some wise asses. One kid gave a phony name/ID & the group of kids at the pawnshop were accompanying a suspect in the theft of that pawnshop. Anyhow, the Chief is admonishing the cop and I suspect hell be more careful with his words in the future.

That was in Villa Park, a suburb about a dozen miles west of Chicago. About 1972, my
late brother & I were insulating pipes in the new jail there, above the drop ceiling. My
brother left a pack of smokes up there above one of the cells, as a small act of charity for
some nicotine-craving Otis there having slept off a bender.

“The cop did display poor judgement but I have to cut him some slack because, IMHO, he was dealing with some wise asses.”
Absolutely! Miles west of Chicago,and they are still $hit kids. Must be something in the water. But the cops better get really wise to the fact that their every move is going to be recorded both picture and sound! If both sides here had shown a scintilla of respect for one another, this could have all been over in minutes. That said “probable cause” was really weak on the cop’s part.

Lake Villa is at least 50 miles north of Chicago city limits, near the Illinois-Wisconsin border.

“admonishing”???....you know darn well if a white cop said “because you’re black” that cop would be instantly booted and hunted down...

I think you are confusing Villa Park with Lake Villa, which is in Lake County. This happened on Rt83 north of Grand Avenue. I actually drove by when this was happening.

Lake Villa, up north near the state line.
Not Villa Park, due west of Chicago.
