Damage Control = Warrant
- An arrest warrant for murder has been issued for a man in connection with the death of a cabdriver who died after being kicked in the head during a traffic altercation, court records show.
Anis Tunkegar, 64, died on Sept. 4, two days after he was kicked in the head following an argument with another driver on the Near West Side.
The driver who allegedly kicked Tunkegar was taken into custody after the incident, but was released two days later without charges. Some time after his release, he went to China, according to Chicago police spokesman [Google-me].
Cook County Circuit Judge Edward Maloney on Wednesday found probable cause to detain the other driver and issued a warrant for the arrest of Lu Fangqi on a murder charge.
Tunkegar’s family, though, fears it may be too late and that the man may have successfully found refuge in China.
Someone commented that Prickwrinkle is noticing the incompetence of her hand-picked States Attorney. It's all well and good to reward your political ass-kissers, but at the same time, they have to actually have a tiny modicum of ability (or surround themselves with a few competent people) lest they embarrass the boss. Foxxx has neither ability nor competent people in her office.

Besides another case dismissed— the working used gives the reader the idea that this guy is coming back— the use of the word “went” as apposed the latter “fled” to China
No damage control on Foxx's part. Her office refused to seek a warrant. CPD said screw it, and sought a warrant directly from a judge without the SA office being involved.
According to cwb, a “police executive” is responsible for pursuing the warrant. Who had the balls to do that? I’d say Staples, but the son refers to “his own hands.”
“But when a senior police executive heard about prosecutors’ failure to take action this week, the cop took matters into his own hands and successfully obtained an arrest warrant for the suspect, Omar said.”
Well, who'd a thunk it?
China. Godless Communists. That term refers to Little Kim also.
Chicago Police still trying to do the right thing in spite of Foxxhole, Preckwinkle and the “community”.
Nice job. I’m sure the victim’s family appreciates your efforts.
“What we found is that convictions are not the measure of a good prosecutor. That’s not how we want to hold ourselves accountable to the public.”

Fortunately, the world is starting the catch on that Kim Foxx is no more qualified to be the Cook County State’s Attorney than she is to step into an operating room to perform brain surgery. Her time as an Assistant State’s Attorney was undistinguished in virtually every way. She spent her entire time in juvenile and almost never touched an adult case. She was transferred to the Criminal Prosecution Buerau for a brief stint but when it became apparent that even that was way beyond her capabilities, she was pushed back to Juvenile. As a lawyer, she’s inexperienced and incompetent. As a politician, she’s a cheap carnie hustler who can talk a good game in short left leaning sound bites (although that might be an insult to cheap carnie hustlers). She lacks substance or depth. She is reviled and ridiculed by the other elected State’s Attorneys through Illinois. Sadly, at the end of the day, it’s the people of Cook County (the their neighboring counties) who suffer because someone like Foxx who has no business sitting in the seat is there. And finally, the only reason she is there is because of Preckwinkle and George Soros.
Her incompetence is finally catching with her. She really shit the bed on this one.
>>>>> “We have a video that tells part of the story,” Foxx said. “Are there witnesses, are there others who can add context before or after what we saw? ..... <<<<<
Right, LiL Kimmy, you have a video that 'tells part of the story' -- The part where Lu Fangqi KILLS Mr. Tunkegar with a Kick To His Head!..you incompetent moron!
And if there is 'context' Kimmy, i.e.: an alibi, then Lu Fangqi can tell that to the Jury at his murder trial. That is, if he ever leaves China and returns to Chicago on his own accord.
Which is as likely as your IQ ever reaching 75!
LOL Preckwinkle knew the whole time that Foxx was an idiot. She is only "noticing" it now so people don't hold that idiot being in office against her in her run for mayor. She isn't that stupid.
The fact that Kimesha's prior work experience was confined solely to an entry level position in the Juvenile Courts (where many new hires are placed until they prove their competence for bigger assignments) struck me as proof positive that she was not highly regarded by her superiors who saw her as an untalented political patronage hire unworthy of a promotion even after years of employment. During her successful campaign, she lied about her prosecutorial experience and claimed that she was so committed to juvenile justice that she chose to stay put. If you believe that I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.
Toni Preckwinkle you own this imbecile and the incalculable damage that she has inflicted upon the criminal justice system in Cook County.
There has NOT been ability or competency in politics in shitcago, crook county, or illannoy for the past 40 years...Problem is, it's gone from bad to worse to "YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME for any sane taxpayer...yet the socialist democrat zombies..."MUST VOTE democ"RAT"! It's not 1960 anymore boys and girls, these politicians have NO integrity, pride or honor! They are only focused on more taxes and stealing everything!!! Nothing is more important to these "crooks"! What is needed is a good old fashioned tea party!!! Remember the only justice in the entire state is injustice!!! Blago is in jail and didn't steal one penny...Short SKANK gave away, sold, stole and robbed everything possible, prickwrinkle is single handedly responsible for the murder, chaos and mayhem that plagues the city, madagain well he's just the fucking ice on the cake of bankruptcy and not one of these POS are even being investigated, forget about prison!!! Jaba da "BILLIONAIRE"can't afford real estate taxes and wants to raise "A ton of taxes" without a mention of where the money is going except it won't pay down debt! Time to GTFO of illannoy!
If Chicago was not a one party state, Preckwinkle’s opposition would be making hay about the stream of felons released from prison, or, as in this instance, never arrested or charged.
You all may, want to read the article in this months "Chicago Magazine". It spot lights the Cook County States Attorney.
The office of the Cook County States attorney has been a problem for decades. Nothing new here, except that it looks like Foxx is taking the problem one step further in an attempt to keep down the black and brown population in the jail and court system. Preckwinkle was on board with that and openly made comments to that effect. So, I don't believe these " rumors" that Preckwinkle is upset, at least not to the point any changes will be made. Besides that, I don't believe most of the public really pays attention to this. They blame the cops for the crime rate, not the prosecutors and judges, or for the Illinois prison system for that matter which plays a big part.
But as her campaign worker, that called my house pimping for her said, when questioned about her qualifications for the job "it would be historic because she is a black female" and that is/was her only qualification for the job.
at a fitness center in the western suburban suburb I meet and talk to several western cook county police chiefs they all say the same thing kimesha is a hater and dumber than dirt
Sanctuary for all crimes including murder captured on video. Only in Crook County Illinois. Hey calling all criminals come to Chicago where they will not chase arrest or prosecuted you. Criminal heven.
Foxxx has neither ability nor competent people in her office.
Not a competent demorat in any office!
Cabrini Kim can very well be the one to sink Taxwinkle permanently. If the decent non welfare class in this town want, they should vote against prickwinkle and any of the other phony candidates who only cater to the permanent welfare class, homeless crazy beggars and feral predators. And Daley can go too. He and his crooked family have done enough damage to Chicago. Gmac is a phony RINO outfit wannabe protected by the Edgar scum and Lori and Jim Montana. And all Mendoza is a Rahm -Madigan ass kisser phony. Vallas is the only choice for anyone with a brain and a job. The election of any of the others will destroy Chicago permanently.
Time to hire some smart , investigative reporters on channel 7
F/ B reporter Evelyn something was unable to learn the race of offender that car jacked a vehicle 12 hours earlier with many eye witnesses .
What about race of victims , mother and child witness Father get run over by this male ? Take a guess .
They also do not stress that an Illegal immigrant murdered a police officer .
Sad day for America when news reporters slant news .

This is complete nonsense. Only the States Attorney can bring a case before a judge in criminal court. Remember, they represent the people of the state. The police cannot prosecute a case nor can they seek a warrant without the States Attorney involved. It is the state that seeks the warrant. It is called prosecutorial discretion. So, get your head out of your ass and stop talking crap. You are truly a nitwit. I pray you are not on the job.
All for show. Issue a warrant to appease any complaints knowing that the offender is gone forever.
Other than having video available, how is this different than the Vaneko case? I don't remember him being charged with murder.
Why the change of heart?
I’m no Cook Co Community Assistance Attorney but let’s say karate man comes back from China next month when his aid check comes in.
A keen observant and tenacious tactical warrior is able to catch/collar/nab him double parked in his cousins borrowed Uber at the courtesy exchange, he now has his affordable bail and hopefully it’s not accidentally inventoried for goodness sake.
What kind of stiff punishment would he be eligible for...a Vanecko 60 day home confinement or a Marquis Gaines 5 month downstate stint ?
Leave it up to KrazyKimmm and The Restoration.
I highly doubt China is just going to hand the guy back over. There are no extradition treaties between the two countries.

That hot, feverish SLANTED-ASSED BULLSHIT by Chicago Magazine
was a soft-focus holiday puff-piece.
Shit... Was there mood lighting, soft music,
finger sandwiches and a playful wine spritzer?
The funny part is that the article has a publishing date
of 10 December.
Chicago Magazine closed the comments section on 12 December
after FOUR comments...
Kim Foxx has a bad reputation for being thin-skinned,
mulish and vindictive.
That article reads like "little ugly aggrieved girl
grows up to be a perpetually aggrieved woman and
take her revenge on all y'all."
A revenge seeking incompetent in the vanguard
of "Being The Change."

I pray you are not on the job. When was the last time u saw an ASA in front of judge seeking an arrest warrant other then for Failure to Appear. Sworn officers and Detectives go in front of a judge swear out the warrant for arrest. Not the ASA.
To the dufus that thinks only States Attorney can bring a case before a judge. This is Crook County and Chicago Illinois normal laws do not apply. The judge can do as he damn well pleases, since when dose anyone in the Chicago legal system follow the law.
UST another illegal killing a citizen, nothing to worry about they tell us. We need to be more tolerant they tell us. Shame on is for being concerned about criminal illegal they tell us. To they I say screw you and your liberal mentality. As a CCW carrier can't wait for some POS to pull something on me, will render him or her room temperature and sleep like a baby that night. Have done it before and will do it again.
The PURGE is a lot closer than you think. The camels back is bending low and about to break, and when it does it will not be pretty.

No, only the States Attorney thinks they are the only ones who can get a warrant. Nothing preventing a judge to issue a warrant without the states attorneys approval. Their arrogance is finally biting them back.Its about time. Maybe its time to rethink felony review, maybe even go back to the days of Chicago only court, jail and attorneys.

Seeking a warrant is not the same as prosecuting a case. What do you think happens when you advise warrants on a call? In this case, when/if the offender is arrested on the warrant, charges will still have to go through the SA's office for approval and prosecution. Getting a warrant alone is not prosecution. Judges don't need the SA's office for that. Perhaps you should learn a thing or two and get your head out of your ass.
(725 ILCS 5/107-9)
Sec. 107-9. Issuance of arrest warrant upon complaint.

(3) State the time and place of the offense as definitely as can be done by the complainant; and
(4) Be subscribed and sworn to by the complainant.
(c) A warrant shall be issued by the court for the arrest of the person complained against if it appears from the contents of the complaint and the examination of the complainant or other witnesses, if any, that the person against whom the complaint was made has committed an offense.
(d) The warrant of arrest shall:
(1) Be in writing;
(2) Specify the name, sex and birth date of the person to be arrested or if his name, sex or birth date is unknown, shall designate such person by any name or description by which he can be identified with reasonable certainty;

I love giving the victim the name and number to felony review when charges are denied. I usually let the asa know right after they deny. Once in a while they will review again and change their minds.

Completely wrong. ASAs do not obtain the warrants. Officers and detectives do. The entire Felony Review system is an agreement between the departments, it is not law. Our exempts can override them on any charge but they rarely do because the ASAs throw a tantrum and nolle the case out of spite.
The cook county states Attorneys office is one of the main reasons Chicago is as awful as it is. They don’t approve felony charges unless it is a slam dunk case and yet their ASAs still lose cases. These ASAs act smug and look down upon us, but at the end of the day they only have a job because we do ours. It is our hard work, our cases, and our safety on the line. They love to talk big about “this case or that case” of theirs, yet they’ve only read paperwork on the incident, we put in the sweat. I’m glad this judge realized the nonsense felony review was pulling and approved the warrant, even if it is only symbolic since this guy is never going to be turned over.
While Prosecutors enjoy broad discretion in what and how to charge, they still have to abide by the Constitution. Equal protection under the Law, Due process, etc.
If you charge one person for murder for kicking someone in the head after a traffic altercation (or even if not traffic related), you need to charge all so similarly situated.
In an abuse of Prosecutorial Discretion one can file a lawsuit, or even appeal to the Attorney General of IL. Let the AG bring the charges in lieu of the local Prosecutor - to ensure Justice is served.
Not protecting the rights of the victim is violating the Civil Rights of a FEDERAL Citizen (we're all dual citizens of the State and Federal Governments, and both Constitutions apply). That the Murderer absconded over State lines, and indeed outside of the Country makes this a Federal Civil Rights matter.
Some Federal Judge ought to compel Ms. Foxx to come to Court to explain herself. Nothing may come of it - but PUBLICIZE IT FAR AND WIDE. Make her unable to hide from this, and let her have an "out" by claiming that under "careful consideration of further information provided to this Office, the following charges are being conveyed against Mr. Attacker"...
This isn't some deciding whether or not to charge some dumbass kids for setting off firecrackers - someone got killed. There's VIDEO of it. WTF isn't she charging him? What's the reason?
Or are we now sending the message that along with tolerating shoplifters, we're going to tolerate murderers too...
The following is a good read - in-depth Law article on Prosecutorial Discretion...

To the moron who thinks only ASA’s can get warrants... maybe if you were on a few more years or actually got out of your car once and a while, you’d know how ridiculous you sound. I’ve personally walked warrants by speaking to the judge and getting them approved. It’s simply telling the ASA you want to walk a warrant, they tell the judge, judge listens to you and your PC and they either approve or deny. That’s it. The amount of blame the ASA’s take is ridiculous.
Turns out the person who secured the warrant was the VC LT Valdez. Hear he has done this before and has fought with the State on many cases and got them charged. If true, good for him.
This is all very simple to explain money or clout was involved at some level. The Chicago Way in action.

So why did HE wait so long?
Just how, exactly, does anyone know that the mutt went to China? Did anyone verify his ticket? Was it someone at his favorite Starbucks say that he hasn’t been there in awhile, so he must have gone to China?
Warrant shmarant ....even if you find the guy it's back to jumping through felonious review hoops again! Yeah we see a guy walking across the street on the video while this happened find out who that was and we will....c.i. it!

You sound like a recruit who thinks they know it all. Just because YOU don't know how to do something, or haven't seen it done, doesn't mean it can't be.
Accountability for states attorneys for allowing this guy to be released without charging. Why should they get immunity from law suits?

Good idea, but the problem is when the arrest on the warrant is made and on the initial court hearing all the ASA has to say they choose not to prosecute and the case is gone. A po or judge cannot make the ASA prosecute the case.

Very true. Then let them defend that decision publicly because you know the arrest will hit the media big time.
We can be charged with dereliction of duty, so lets go after Kimmy of dereliction of prosecution. Fits her like a glove........
Foxx is a tool only. She is not even smart enough to surround herself with competent people. The only qualification she is interested in is a person's skin color. The good ASAs have either left the office or been asked to leave. There was a recent lawsuit filed against FOXX for the office environment she fosters.
The current ASAs are afraid to try cases. An investigative reporter could look into this. There are drug dealers who are dealing in kilo quantities of narcotics but Foxx's ASA are letting them go with probation or MINIMUM jail time. All because the ASA is afraid to try the case or maybe they just don't know how to introduce the evidence.
This same thing is true of gun cases and battery cases.
When are the people of this county going to wake up. Crime is NOT about skin color. Crime is about people not respecting the rules of society.
