Yes, I did read that part.
It's still a "He said/She said case with no proof provided to us that it actually happened. All we have is the Original Poster's version of what happened, and that alone is suspect because it's third party. Show me a link to a news story about this or something more than just, "This is what happened, trust me."
Like I said, if it's true, then I will be the first in line to crucify the son of a mongrel dog. However, I'm not going to crucify anybody on the word of someone that wasn't there and has no corabborating evidence.

Let's just hope that this ********* loses his job and goes to prison so that others can do to him what he did to this woman.
I understand your concern about he said/she said. my friend wanted me to post her story not to start crap.. but so that people are aware of what goes on. video tape should be proof enough. if you really are questioning the validity of the story, couldn't you use your law enforcement connections to somehow hook up with cook county to find out "if" it happened or not? please don't take this the wrong way. it is in no way meant to insult you by your questioning if it did in fact happen. the important thing here is that it was caught on video tape. so whether people on here choose to believe it or not, my friend is getting justice, and a bad officer is getting what he deserves. all thanks to the proof on the video tape.
I am not a cop basher. I have nothing but respect for the men and women officers who put their life on the line on a daily basis to protect the good and deal with the bad.

It is sad that not everyone given trust is deserving of that trust. That goes for every walk of life, not just LEO's. Priest, Teachers, Parents, to name but a few.
As far as "using my connections", no. My employer would take a very dim view of me checking something out for personal reasons and there is no way I would risk my job over something that doesn't concern me. Actually, even if it did concern me, and this happened to a loved one I wouldn't use my position of authority to influence their case. I just know whom to report things to and how to get things investigated, but this is nothing that anybody with a knowledge of the legal system doesn't know.
Take care and stay safe and best to your friend.

I understand.. not being in law enforcement myself I was not clear on what would fly and what would not. and as I said before this thread was in no way meant to bash LEO's. just a case where one of the few and far betweens happens. and as you mentioned it happens too often by those who hold different positions.

Great point about the news story Biker. I haven't seen anything on the "Officer.com" site, nor did I see anything in the emails over the last few days. Over the years I've seen some very "interesting" things in the daily emails. If there was an official incident reported anywhere, it would probably make it into the daily emails or at least on to the site. I've seen stuff that happened here in PRHI posted on the officer.com website. Being that IL is a much bigger state, I'm sure the story would pop up somewhere.
