Burge Free

  • Former Chicago Police Cmdr. Jon Burge has been released from a Florida halfway house after 4 ½ years in federal custody for lying about the torture of suspects.

    Darlene Tyler, the residential re-entry manager at the Orlando-area facility, says Burge was released Friday, a day early, because his scheduled release date fell on a weekend.
No doubt someone in the media will be bitching about that last day.

Correction - he did 4.5 years for lying at a civil deposition. He didn't torture anyone so there was no need to lie about that!

Tough old bastard...

Daley Inc. must be very sorely disappoint that he didn't die in prison.

May his revenge be sweet...

This will get the Burge reperations crowd squawking again.
RAHM will again consider giving them millions more... it's not like he needs the money for our pension fund. He's flat out refusing to contribute to that until he gets his way.

"People's Law Project" already screaming for "reparations."

"People," nothing. We have confirmed that this bunch does not even reply to ordinary citizens looking for help -- even a suggestion -- to help with non-criminal legal problems. They only deal with the worst of the worst.

As Mayor Emmanuel ponders a request for 'reparations', John Burge, a man that was truly railroaded, goes home.

Rahm and Rich Daley both disgust me. Politician is a dirty word. We need term limits because of the abuse of power in these positions. I hope Burge writes a book.

Welcome home "boss" a true man in every sense of the word,a man who was respected and knew how to take care of his troops! Hope you enjoy a long life sir, you were the last of the real leaders, who kept crime down, when Fahey and O'Brien (RIP) were murdered on the way home from another officers funeral you put everyone on finding the thugs savages Wilson brothers, they shot these great officers multiple times in cold blood,and like the punk cowards they were ran away like little girls, until the Burge guys caught them!

John Burge, you have a special place in the hearts of the "real police" the cowards that went after you should all be ashamed at minimum! Thank you sir for a job well done! We have no more bosses, with respect none, just about of panderers!

I donated $150.00 to Officer Darren Wilson and we need to plan many benefit fund raisers for Cmdr Burge. Count me in. We are all in the cross hairs of the Communists, including the one in the White House, who are working to turn the United States into a Soviet gulag by destroying our schools, emasculating our police and military, and abolishing families led by a father and mother. Save yourself-support Jon Burge and vote Republican!

This is because Rahm is a Communist Re-Distributionist just like obama. White Middle Class Taxpayers, hang onto your wallets. They're coming for every penny they can get their thieving hands on, one way or another.

He never was a threat to the public. The only ones that had anything to fear were rapists and killers. The only fear that they had was getting caught and doing time.

4.5 years for lying at a civil deposition tell me they didn't want to fuck this guy. I can't remember anyone ever being disciplined let alone jailed for lying on a civil deposition. Ask the former head of I.A.D who got caught lying in a trial what kind od jail time did she get. He should have pled the fifth and never spent a day in jail. Torture is good for murderers and rapists. It's a tool like the lie box.

Burge was a real police officer, ya so there were some heads cracked but that is what is needed. Look at the violence today. You pussified liberals need to be a victim of a crime and see if you don't want Burge interviewing the offender. Hate to see your wife or daughter raped and then complain the police did nothing. Burge did what he needed to do at that time. And please don't tell me some guys were innocent. Not one west side south side offender is innocent. If they didn't get caught for one crime they will for a another crime.

God bless Burge

Thank you Commander Burge, you will always be called commander whenever the real police see you sir, you did what was needed to bring murderers and thugs, the animals who kill to justice! Innocent police officers killed murdered broad daylight in cold blood,and the savages went after you! The elected like Daley let them prosecute you, for what a fake vote? The cowardly lion from wizard of oz had more "testicular fortitude" than 99.9% of bosses on CPD, they are not team players, looking out for the coppers best interest as you did, nope they look for the next promotion, next pat on the back for sending a police officer on a tough road if they do their job!

1 year to go sir,and I will retire, will move and not look back, was planning to stay in my home that we built, but cannot stand to watch all these criminals allowed to run wild,thanks to the ejected panderers!

The most ridiculous thing I've ever seen posted about Burge. If anything, our former Supt. at the time (Richard Brzeczek) should have served that time with him. Brzeczek knew full well what was going on, and did nothing about it for years. And now we're going to blame black bosses (however few there were during the time all of this was occurring) for what happened? Unbelievable.

Interesting that despite all the torture allegations against Burge, and the lawsuits, and the negociated payouts, he was tried twice in the criminal courts for allegedly torturing suspects,and was found not guilty both times. This was because the officers testified in those cases, and the torture stories were not found believable. Most of the civil lawsuits were settled out of court, because the police officers involved pleaded the Fifth and refused to testify at civil trials. If those officers had been given immunity, and testified to refute the torture stories,it would have saved the city millions. Too bad for the tax payers, it wasnt politically correct to do so.

Correction to original post on 02/17, 0914: Burge was not tried in the criminal courts, except for the federal perjury charge which led to his incarceration. Burge was cleared in two civil suits in 1989 relating to the Andrew Wilson case.
