Yeah, not an isolated incident.

Seen it.
Had it happen to me as teenager.
Has also happened to buddies of mine.

That's the way some of those c*cksuckers roll in the police forces.

But there are a lot of good people in policing also.

c*cksuckers indeed (J. Edgar Hoover school of law)

Few reasonable people doubt there are many good, upstanding & professional police.

Robocops jacked up on steroids simply make the others look bad.

Rather than "copping-out" & working too hard to cover their brethern's bad apple asses, they should do more to either smack these dangerous loose cannon types into line, or have them removed from the force.

btw - Did you happen to catch how the Police *wink wink nudge nudge* Chief claims the police lost their car's tapes of the incident.

My, how convenient Rolling Eyes

Chicago Police Again Mired In Scandal
By MIKE ROBINSON, Associated Press Writer
Sun Sep 30, 7:04 PM ET

CHICAGO - Videotapes of angry officers savagely beating civilians and charges that a murder plot was hatched within an elite special operations unit have Chicago's troubled police department reeling again.



Adding to the department's woes is word from federal prosecutors that they are investigating claims that homicide detectives tortured suspects into confessing to murders that landed them on death row in the 1980s.

Not since club-swinging cops in baby-blue helmets chased demonstrators through clouds of pepper gas at the 1968 Democratic National Convention have Chicago police been so awash in trouble Idea

Former Toronto Cop Found Guilty Of 1st Degree Murder
By Maria Babbage, The Canadian Press

NEWMARKET, Ont. - The lengthy, costly and often bizarre trial of a former Toronto police officer accused of killing his mistress and concealing her body behind a wall in his basement culminated Wednesday with a jury finding him guilty of first-degree murder.

A jury in this suburban town north of Toronto took little more than a day to convict Richard Wills, 50, in the February 2002 death of Linda Mariani, 40, following a five-month trial. The two had been involved in a nine-year affair before Mariani's death.

Wills is facing a life sentence with no chance of parole for at least 25 years.

"I suspect any judge sitting in your place would have returned the same verdict," Ontario Superior Court Judge Michelle Fuerst told the jury.

Wills's teenage daughter Jessica sobbed uncontrollably outside the courtroom, occasionally shrieking in despair and calling out, "Daddy, Daddy."

The father of three was accused of hitting Mariani in the head with a baseball bat and strangling her with a skipping rope, then stuffing her body in a garbage bin and hiding it behind a wall in the basement of his home in Richmond Hill, Ont., north of Toronto.

The defence maintained Mariani died after falling down stairs at Wills's home, while the Crown alleged he killed her because she wouldn't leave her husband.

Wills said he hid Mariani's body because he wanted to bury her later near his family cottage in Wasaga Beach, Ont., as they had agreed to in a secret lovers' pact.

A baseball bat and skipping rope - the latter wrapped three times around Mariani's neck - were found with the body when Wills led police to it four months after she vanished.

A pathologist testified that Mariani's cause of death could not be determined because her remains were too badly decomposed. However, an autopsy revealed she had a fractured skull.

Mariani's brother John Valeri, who spoke on behalf of the family, said they are relieved that justice has been served.

"We knew that there was plenty of evidence for first-degree murder, and we're glad the jury was able to see through the web of lies that Wills and the defence put forward," he said outside the courthouse.

"It's five-and-a-half years that Wills has managed to manipulate the judicial system."

Mariani's husband Dominic Mariani said his heart "was going about 200 miles an hour" when the verdict was read because he was unsure of the outcome.

"I wasn't 100 per cent sure, but as soon as he (the jury foreman) stood up, it changed," he said. "I felt really positive after that point."

Wills's lawyer Raj Napal blamed his client's conviction on the "immense prejudice" stemming from the manner in which Wills stuffed his lover's body into a 60-gallon plastic container.

Wills intends to appeal.

"He said to me, 'Raj, I'm innocent, and I'm going to challenge this, I'm going to appeal,"' Napal said outside court.

During the trial, which was frequently disrupted by Wills's bizarre behaviour, the ex-cop went through several lawyers and regularly insulted them and the presiding judge - occasionally using racist and sexist obscenities. He also threatened to beat up the prosecutors.

On a number of occasions, he urinated in the police car that shuttled him to court.

Another time he loudly complained about his filthy clothes, and when he was ignored, he seemingly defecated and then showed off the excrement with his hands.

Despite his outlandish behaviour, Wills was never cited for contempt. Shocked

Police Search For Missing Ill. Woman
Fri Nov 2, 8:39 PM ET

BOLINGBROOK, Ill. - State police sent divers into a retention pond Friday near the home of a suburban Chicago police sergeant whose wife disappeared Sunday and whose former wife was found dead in her bathtub in 2004.

A search warrant was executed Thursday at the home of Drew Peterson, whose wife, Stacy, was reported missing after she didn't show up at a relative's house. Investigators led cadaver dogs around the couple's home.

Peterson, 53, a sergeant in the Bolingbrook Police Department, has said his 23-year-old wife called him Sunday night and told him she was leaving. He said he believes she left him for another man.

He also said she has suffered from "mood issues" since a sister died last year.

Her family members said she never would have willingly left her two small children.

"Never have, never will, never would of," said her younger sister, Cassandra Cales, whose family was holding out hope that Stacy Peterson would be found safe.

Her family said she was afraid of her husband and was making plans to divorce him. "She told me Friday night she feared for her life," Cales said.

Cales also said her sister had planned to meet with a divorce attorney Monday.

Illinois State Police Capt. Ken Kaupas said he knew of no other instance in which she had simply left home for days. He said investigators had not found any evidence of wrongdoing and that Drew Peterson was cooperating.

Kaupas said investigators were searching two vehicles taken Thursday from the couple's home. Kaupas would not say what other items were taken.

Meanwhile, Will County State's Attorney James Glasgow has started reading through old files in the death of Peterson's ex-wife, Kathleen Savio, "in light of recent developments," spokesman Charles Pelkie has said.

Glasgow, who wasn't in office when Savio was found dead in her bathtub, said earlier this week that "there are some unusual circumstances in the 2004 case."
