37 Years

  • A man pled guilty Tuesday to shooting his ex-girlfriend and her mother, an off-duty Chicago police officer, and was sentenced to 37 years in prison, according to court records.

    Anthony Gates, 30, was sentenced by Cook County Judge Dennis Porter to 31 years in prison for shooting the then-49-year-old officer and six years in prison for shooting his ex-girlfriend, who was 21 at the time, according to court records.


    Gates arrived at the girlfriend's home in the 2200 block of East 68th Street late on Nov. 11, 2014, "upset because he felt that he had not been seeing his (2-year-old) son as much as he wanted," according to court documents.
Some fantastic conflict-resolution skills there.
  • The boy wasn't hit, but Gates fired at least 10 times at the boy's grandmother, who was sitting behind the wheel of her own car, prosecutors said.

    The officer got out of the car and collapsed on the ground as Gates stood over her and kept firing, hitting her in the face, both wrists and her knee, prosecutors said.
That doesn't seem like nearly enough time for an attack like that.

And now will have non-stop posts from Marty "Cornel Sanders" Preib. Marty just quit and become an investigative reporter. He's telling people he and Graham can get us 80% at 20 years? Bull..

Outraged. The officer went through extensive reconstructive surgery in the hospital. That animal deserved life in prison, if he couldn't get the needle here in Illinois. Every police officer should be either writing or e-mailing Tim Evans right now over this.
That officer deserved far better than this.

Thirty-seven years is way too much in Chicago, County of Cook, State of Illinois. However, the firearm and bullets were given life sentences with no chance of parole.

this is so friggin typical of the fine constituents hailing from our beloved ghetto. in order for this to be news that implies that it's out of the norm. if domestics were to cease to exist we'd be out of jobs. this is a classic chicago love story. how heartwarming.

Its typical Cook County travesty of justice. So 31 years minus good behavior and he is eligible to apply for parole next year. I will wager $100 he is out of jail in six years from now and will be found shot to death on the street in Democrat paradise 7-8 years from now. Seen it before and it is not an unlikey wonderful conclusion to the life of that dirtbag.

Porter is a pretty good judge. There must have been a good reason. ASA Foxx shenanigans, perhaps?

Hey Mr Chief Judge of crook county. Looks like that speech by Preckwinkle really sunk in with you and your fellow judges. You are responsible for Chicago violence just like the mayor, ACLU and the news media. You have the same blood on your hands. What is really amazing is that you only have to look at any adjacent county to crook county to see how fair and effective justice is dispatched. Crook county is an island of lawlessness and you are part of the problem.

No wonder this city-state-county is so full of corruption as the blood covers our streets, this was our family that was murdered by a gang punk President trump please send in enforcement teams, arrest the mayor we will gladly help remove the scum from our city and send them back all of them the criminals must be removed!

How about alderman lopez with a 300% crime of violence in his ward the formerly great Brighton park neighborhood what happened? to many illegal criminals there Ray? And your worried that tanks rolling down Archer would incite the people? You are really delusional are you sir a legal citizen?

Attorney General Jeff Sessions finally sworn in today are you ready for to restore order? If he puts it on paper and backs the police we can and will do the job! rahm please you and the 50 step aside when a real lawman comes here and authorizes real law and order we will take back the streets as long as we are supported by government and the taxpaying citizens want their city back. The crime is everywhere rahm cannot even protect downtown citizens stabbings,murder how many police are we down?

Eddie you could of been known as a great supt but you refused to remove the same exempt ranks that did not achieve anything and now that you shuffled the deck they are doing less,only waiting for that huge undeserved pension bump! Speaking on pension again fire years ago abolished the pension draining friends of clouted gold braid pension highest is rank of Lieutenant, why is it still going on here? Has rahm made the required contribution so far? Really quiet dean and hauser? Are you being fed well at the trough?

Don't worry help is on the way. Just what we need! We finally have a Kennedy running for Governor on the Democrap ticket. This will surely solve all of Chicago, Cook County and the entire states problems. He will stop all crime and get the judiciary to be more tough on crime. He will make sure "OUR PENSIONS" are funded and we all have health insurance we "EARNED" and retired as a benefit. BTW his most recent job was something to do with community assistance to low income areas. Kind of sounds like another democrap who ran for president. Keep voting Democrap and wondering why everything is turning to crap.

Uh, WE don't.
I carry a gun. I have NEVER considered using it to resolve an argument.
Let's re-think that "WE", sunshine.
It's a certain, irresponsible element that has no impulse control or respect for life that's opting to 'solve things with shooting'.
