A top Chicago police official’s car was stopped on the West Side during a drug arrest earlier this month, a police spokesman confirmed Wednesday.
A Lexus registered to Yolanda Talley, chief of internal affairs, was pulled over Feb. 1 in the 500 block of North St. Louis Avenue and officers arrested Kenneth Miles, 34, on drug charges, according to an arrest report and police sources.
Talley wasn’t in the car.
Her niece was driving the Lexus, said Don Terry, a spokesman for the police department.
According to a police report, officers in a gang investigations squad were targeting drug sales in the area when they saw a man in a black mask pick up a bag near a black SUV and enter the passenger side of a four-door silver Lexus.
Officers said they stopped the car because the driver made a left turn without using a turn signal. Miles tossed a Ziploc bag containing 84 pink packets of heroin out of the window, police said.

You don’t have to guess.
“A police source said the officers involved in the arrest haven’t been allowed to go back on the street but haven’t been officially stripped of their police powers or put on “desk duty.”” Why are these cops not allowed to go back on the street? All they did was their job.
This here is the REAL West Side Story of year 2022.
Spielberg should have brought his dancers and film crew to this neighborhood and just let the camera run for a few hours even without any actual direction. He would have earned a hit vs a financial flop.
Paging Vic Mackey!
“My client merely found these drugs and was on his way to the police station to turn them in.”
I guess “doing their jobs” doesn’t include busting the friend of the chief’s niece in the chief’s car.
'Cause they stepped on the toes of the chief of internal affairs.
Are we sure this isn’t a TV episode of Chicago PD?

Talley Ho!
Boy, do I miss Second City Cop.

Seems as though the curtain may have been drawn back accidentally exposing one of the problems with law enforcement in Chirac. Who’d a thunk it? /s
They still occasionally post articles here.
They really were one of the best blogs anywhere during their run.
I guess Groot struck back after all.

Strings get pulled nothing ever changes in Chicago but it does grow.
A headline trying to make it sound like the IA Chief was doing drugs. She was not in the car.
Wrong is wrong.
That’s like when Barney Frank’s DC apartment was being used as a brothel, but he wasn’t there at the time. You think Barney didn’t know? And do you think the Chief IA officer, in the corrupt city of Chicago, lent her car out to a known criminal, that she had no idea what he might be doing? Please.
When I woke up this morning there was snow on the ground. I didn’t see it snow, but I know it snowed.
HA! I like the way you think!😂
I know! We can start a new awards show, the Drive By Awards!
