Absurdity of a Chicago criminal case outdoes anything the Onion or Babylon Bee could imagine

I have to ask, “What’s the point of having police and a judiciary?” when I read about this case from Chicago, a city world-renowned for the level of lethal criminality its residents endure

. ..

An accused serial burglar and thief has been sentenced to probation for a burglary in Lincoln Park last year — even though he was already on probation for two burglaries at the time of the alleged break-in.

Jonathan Hernandez, 26, pleaded guilty to one count of theft in exchange for an 18-month probation sentence in the latest case, according to court records. He has been arrested seventeen times in Chicago since March 2014

...

Hernandez was sentenced to probation for committing burglary while out on probation for committing burglary.

If probation didn’t dissuade him from further burglary, how could any judge assume that more probation would keep him from committing future crimes?

It makes no sense.

...

Why would anyone want to live in Chicago under these circumstances?

“Lawlessness is part of the plan in continues the chaos in the streets”

Bingo! A slight variation on the old Soviet terror regime: make the disarmed “little people” scared so that they beg the government for protection in exchange for their own freedom.

This blue city model will be going nation-wide under Chairman Chou Bai-Den.

Yeah, I get it. Remember when the post office had the “most wanted” mugs inside each. I asked an idiot working there about that once and his response...was...well idiotic.

Planned Parenthood? What does Gates & Bush say about that eh? It’s Sunday. Sit back with a coup of covfefe and dig a little bit. YOU won’t like what you find.

Kim Foxx is the State’s Attorney for Cook County, Illinois

which includes Chicago.

She’s the one who dropped the Jesse Smellit case.
