Accused Chicago cop-killer skirted jail days before deadly traffic stop
NY Post ^ | 08/13/2021 | Joshua Rhett Miller

One of two brothers accused of killing a Chicago police officer was on the street despite being charged in a hit-and-run months earlier while on probation, according to a report.

Emonte Morgan, 21, whom prosecutors say admitted fatally shooting Officer Ella French, 29, during a Saturday traffic stop, allegedly slammed into a man in a crosswalk on April 9 — while he was already on probation for a 2019 robbery, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.

Morgan could have been sent back to jail at a court hearing set for Tuesday over the incident — some three days after he and his brother, Eric Morgan, 22, allegedly killed French and critically injured her partner after pulling over their car on the city’s South Side.

Giving democrats power and control always ends up with bad consequences, whether direct or indirect. Chicag-hole seems to always be in the news for the wrong reasons.

Is it really his fault considering his underprivileged upbringing? “We’re depraved on account we’re deprived.”

It would be a real shame if there was an “accident” in the jailhouse involving these two brothers.

C’mon man.
The Mafia would do a MUCH better job of running Chicago than the current city government.

Along with wimpy Leftist judges letting them off easy, aren’t the probation officers supposed to monitor them? More than a chat in an office once a month (if that). No using guns, no consorting with convicted criminals.

Is probation just another word for “Go on, you rascal, get outta here and go endanger some good folks, ya hear?”

As always, democrats mess up royally when they are in control.

I always wondered about that until I realized that they do it on purpose. It is easier to skim money when the city is in chaos. There is always room for another study or a commission to look into the problem. There is no money in solving problems.

They did do a better job when they had control. At least one did not have to worry about some stupid federal ban on alcohol.

—”As always, democrats mess up royally when they are in control.”

I disagree.
Give them the city they want.

Not much need for the cops, why are we sacrificing our best and brightest, for what?

One thousand dollars minimum loss for a misdemeanor.
Their judges will let out on supervision.
Give them Barabbas.

Police work should be done in the safety of the police precinct house or online.
Fill out the forms and wait.

Need an ambulance? Bring the injured/ill person to the precinct house, the ambulance will meet you outside when safe.

Fire? May want to add a personal fire safety system to your house?

CHICAGO
Lori Lightfoot Accuses Officers of Trying To ‘Hijack’ Fallen Cop’s Procession With Bagpipe Tribute…
AUGUST 13, 2021
Gee, I wonder why they turned their backs on her.

Via Daily Wire:

Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot fired the latest salvo against the Chicago Police Department (CPD) in a press conference Wednesday, firing back at officers over comments made about a planned bagpipe tribute for fallen CPD officer Ella French that was scrapped by a deputy supervisor.

Lightfoot accused Chicago police of “hijack[ing]” fallen officer Ella French’s procession from the University of Chicago medical center to the Cook County medical examiner’s office when they massed to perform the tribute, as is reportedly traditional for the Chicago Police Department. […]

On Wednesday, in a contentious press conference, Lightfoot laid the blame on CPD, telling reporters that officers tried to “hijack” French’s procession, preventing the family from having adequate time with French’s body ahead of the autopsy.
