Investigators found the bodies of Thomas E. Johnson, 69, and his wife, Leslie Ann Jones, 67, late Monday inside their Oak Park home, where evidence showed injuries to the Chicago law firm partners were not self-inflicted...Johnson, who specialized in social justice issues, had also worked since 1991 as a hearing officer for the Chicago Police Board. In that role, he presided over a hearing last year for four cops accused of covering up a probe into the 2014 Laquan McDonald shooting, the Tribune reports.

Murder Robbery by former client.

My Guess.

The Question is whether the robber was politically motivated or because the poor folks involved needed money.

Does not appear that “Safe at Home” lockdown helped here. R.I.P. and prayers for their family and friends.

I found myself thinking about how these papers twist things
concerning our nation and the president.

And then it dawned on me. Can I trust a single word out
of their mouths, from their keyboards, or what they put
into print?

They’ve proven they can make stuff up and run with it for
years on end.

Does this article have an agenda? Is it based on fact or
on a goal they have in mind?

Frankly, I’m at the point here I have no use for the media
at all.

Even in this case, I just don’t know. What is their agenda?

this reminds me of the two doctors who worked for the University of Wisconsin in Madison who were killed by the black boyfriend of their dtr....

she is black and is adopted....

file under "no good deed goes unpunished"....

but the real point is you can't go thru life with blinders on even for "social justice" and expect to not be hurt by it..

Johnson, who specialized in social justice issues.

Think some one who was let out of jail caused injury or death to someone who took it upon themselves to get even.

If so expect to see more of this

Always sad when people are murdered.
I wonder what happened to Leo, the dog.

“Johnson, who specialized in social justice issues”

A more serious threat to society than a murder.
