Kwame Fails
- The Illinois Supreme Court on Tuesday denied a bid to resentence former Chicago Police Officer Jason Van Dyke in the murder of Laquan McDonald.
Attorney General Kwame Raoul and Special Prosecutor Joseph McMahon filed a petition with the court in February seeking a new sentencing hearing for Van Dyke.
Cook County Judge Vincent Gaughan gave Van Dyke 81 months behind bars in January. A jury in October found Van Dyke guilty of second-degree murder and 16 counts of aggravated battery with a firearm.
The judge chose to sentence Van Dyke only on the second-degree murder count, finding it to be the more serious crime. Raoul and McMahon challenged that decision in their petition.
The state Supreme Court denied the bid for a new sentencing hearing without explanation Tuesday. Justice P. Scott Neville Jr. wrote a dissenting opinion. Justice Thomas Kilbride also dissented in part. Both suggested a supervisory order would be appropriate.
So Kwame.....any word on the Farrakhan-connected sergeant who shot the nonthreatening, unarmed mentally challenged child from his automobile? Or is that a politically based prosecution you don't want to touch?

Kwame will tell his “community” that he tried.
He’s playing dirty, racial politics.... no two ways about it.
Now what is he going to do?
Kwa me Hate the Police.
I just love how this POS Kwame said it is his job to make sure the laws and the constitution are upheld and followed. I have news for you, you better go after K. Fox than!! She is using that office for her own agenda. You don't have to look too far Mr. Illinois AG, she is totally not following what the law says when it comes to certain individuals. Kwame you are a fucn joke...
the new democ"RAT" slogan: democ"RATS" for the people and folks but not the taxpayers!!!
I really am tired of this agenda bullshit.
I'm sure that I'm not alone.
What an idiot. He thought he'd pander to the police-hating masses and it backfired. Another Madigan sycophant. How does it feel to be made a fool of after only 3 months in office?
Years from now, the whole JVD "Persecution" will be seen as an Abuse of Power for Racial political gain. The manipulation of the case allowed Rahm to have a second term, and now Kwame, the "Baby Obama", thought he could gain greater political credibility for his next step up, after his term as Attorney General runs out. Oh, and let's not forget Toni, who equates the actions of an on-duty police officer, to the acts of the gangbanger, who killed an African American female teen. And then there are all of the Exempt who saw the video, and felt the shooting was justified; until they were told to think otherwise, again for political reasons. Finally, the Outsiders, such as ACLU and BLM, encouraged by the Media, who dismantled Policing by removing Discretion and denying the assumption of innocence for any officer, unless he/she was politically wired. The JVD case was absolutely a turning point, and the new direction is dangerous for the public and every White or Latino Officer. Be Careful and Strong; Everyone of you who is not wired to a politician or the Nation of Islam, is on your own. The Racial and Political Power Base has shifted. Baby "G"
SCC, your last two questions call it for what it is. Outstanding column.
Kwame should look at the cook county fake attorney who keeps stepping in the poo poo.
Retire, leave this city, and let them have it.
Too bad Kwame. Find a politician to prosecute.
Saw him on news thought it was RuPaul out of drag...
Kwame is NOT a Madigan sycophant. He’s Preckwinkle’s bitch. The Madigan Democratic Party is waning, the radical left, racial agenda driven party of Preckwinkle. People like Rep Martwick from the NW side have jumped on that bandwagon along with the new socialists in City Council. At least Arena’s gone.
Vote for Lightfoot and it chips away at Preckwinkle’s support.
fuck illinois to hell.
after all these years of madigan the people vote this goof in?
Why isn’t Herbert losing his shit over the Sgt that shot the autistic kid from inside his car while the kid was standing on the sidewalk with no weapon??
He said that he still thinks the ruling from the “Supreme Court” is wrong, what else can you expect.
Why isn’t Kwame looking into the video of Sgt. Muhammad shooting the unarmed autistic teen? Kim Foxx? Media? Anyone?
GOD BLESS JVD and his family. Sacrificial lambs. Let us not forget that their lives are forever altered, throw a donation their way so that they can scratch one worry off the pile heaped upon them.
Gotta watch this one , very slick Machine tool. Didn't take the usual victim route , said he accepted the decision. Means this prick isn't going away and doesn't feel defeated , means he will do a better job jamming up the next guy
City Council is obviously for sale to the highest bidder according to recent Federal revelations. They have exposed clear acts of criminal activity yet there is no investigation launched by CCSAO or the Attorney General’s office. Let’s just focus on the police because they’re the problem. JVD’s incident was years ago and we have to here about it almost everyday in some capacity. Meanwhile Rahm is giving away Billions in TIFF funds to connected businesses and Aldermen will sell or give away anything that is nailed down for a campaign donation or a contract for their connected friends or family.
Police work ain’t pretty. There may be a mistake or two but police officers need to be given the benefit of the doubt that they were trying to do the right thing unless proven otherwise. If JVD fires twice Labuan would still be dead and we would have never heard of this incident. We can thank Obama for this gift that keeps on giving. This anti police mentality was started by him and Holder when Obama attempted to stand up for Michael Brown who not only questioned authority but who attempted to kill the officer. The officer who after exhaustive investigation by both local authorities and the fed’s Was cleared of any wrongdoing. By why let the facts get in the way.
It’s kinda like the only ones fueling the race war in this country are the ones that have something to gain by it. Example Jussie Smollett. This country needs to move on and hold people accountable for their actions.
Awsome. So he thinks he can challenge a sentence just because he doesn’t like it. What a self serving moron.
Kwami, Foxx and Precwinwkle all are racists who hate the police and we have them running our city thanks to the ehite democrates catering to them in their quest for winning elections. Thanks, Madigan, Daley, Emanuel there is a special place in hell for you.
House up for sale I will spend my pension check in Florida

Agreed he is nothing more than another lisa madigan who will do nothing but spread the anti-police,we hate law enforcement and pander to the thugs,illegals and the welfare leeches! he will accomplish nothing that job should be eliminated they do nothing but attack police and the law abiding!
US Attorney are you looking ?
One of the biggest jags around!
All ANTI police !!!!
Shoot a disabled kid, on a drive-by kwame sees and does nothing but reopen a case tried jury trial and try to screw the police more anti-police nonsense from a moronic dolt.
Sergeant "I did a drive-by," gets a short suspension as Eddie the king of incompetence gives him,and no prosecution,no marches,flaky in the corner hiding with jackson, no public outcry from the agitators activists, Eddie not calling for any type of trial a dam drive-by its ok because ogf who the sergeant knows.
Don't worry Edward the feds are looking at it the civil rights violations again you prove your worthy of resignation quickly, along with the gold star clown show ridiculous and disheartening at 35th street!
dirty, racial politics is work of my life and I'm just getting started!
And then there are all of the Exempt who saw the video, and felt the shooting was justified; until they were told to think otherwise, again for political reasons.
Worst part about is all these bosses could have said it was justified and still just retire what kind of jobs were they promised?
The video of the sergeant shooting that autistic kid is every bit if nor more upsetting the the JVD shooting video.
JVD initially had justification for shooting but he went too far. The sergeant was not justified.
The mayoral candidates talk about more police accountability from the JVD incident. He is off the job, indicted, tried, convicted and sentenced.
What more do they want? A firing squad?
While the sgt. shooting is ignored.
"So Kwame.....any word on the Farrakhan-connected sergeant..."
Shheet, that happen before I was King Kwame of the WEST and SOUTH SIDE LANDS. I got nothing to do with that or LORD FARRAKHAN.
maybe this will silence the herbert haters. this case was always a second degree case andthere was no way any jury would have found jvd completely not guilty, the real problem in the case was judge gaughn not allowing a bench trial several years ago ad doing the right thing then. how much money did the fop and the county spend on this trial which should have been unnecessary
Chicago TV media gives smellit's kim fox , Kwame free passes to ignore laws, be their normal screw up selves …
Sometimes I just don't see a bright future for cities like
Chicago. I do know one thing. If you decide to have
kids, just pretend the name Trace does not exist.
Kalamaté RatTool didn’t seem so disturbed by the decision.
Flung some poop on the wall, didn’t stick, he’ll just wait and jump on some other Demm to conjured up another anti-police crisis to bandstand on.
He should be sanctioned for the obvious bias and overreach.
Did he get his law degree from the same third world correspondence school as KmmmFxxxUp?
Their law school alumni must be proud.
The man has no brains.
Now he can go back to seeing urban violence from the front window of his home. Tool.
Heard the news yesterday on the radio. I thought "good!"
Give an idiot a white shirt and a title and their heads swell to the size of a watermelon.
The officer in question and his family have suffered enough.
Racial politics at its best.
NOT ILLINOIS. NOT LAW.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest
I went to Kwame's *Official* website as Illinois Attorney General and it has the following: ......
---> The Attorney General is the state's chief legal officer and is responsible for protecting the public interest of the state and its people. ~~~ snip ~~~ The job of the Attorney General is to: Litigate to ensure state laws are followed and respected.
(and)
Helping Crime Victims The Office of the Attorney General has made it a priority to provide services that help victims of violent crime meet their challenges and regain some peace of mind. <---
IMHO, maybe Kwame shouldn't be getting so worked-up and involved over a prosecution that was basically politically motivated, but ended with a sentence that didn't, and still doesn't, satisfy the perpetually aggrieved people (and folk) in 'the community'.
But with that Mission Statement of YOUR office as IL AG in mind, turn your attention to a more serious issue and take a few minutes and get on the phone with Lil Kimmy Foxx!
Inform the Cook County States Attorney that it's NOT her job, nor does she have the Legal Authority, to make laws, or ignore laws she personally doesn't like or that 'she' thinks are 'unfair'.
That when she refuses to file Felony Charges that ARE warranted by the LAW and the facts of the case, that SHE is not only denying Justice to the Victim of that crime, but her actions may also be illegal.
Make it perfectly clear to Lil Kimmy that it's your job to ensure that ALL the laws in Illinois are enforced, and as such she 'better' start filing the appropriate charges and prosecuting accordingly -- or else.
Yeah, except this would happen when Hell freezes over.
Where's the outrage???? This Sgt just shit an unarmed black kid,
where's father faker???
Where's jebediah???
Where's kwame?????
Where's the special prosecutor????
The media???
Jesse Jackson, BLM
Hello anyone???????
Shortly legislative BS will be wrote to allow re-prosecution or better yet, taking the teeth out of Illinois Supreme Court so that these assholes can do as they please
This is fo our proples but the man still be in power pullin dem strings fo JVD
Why did voters vote for this CLOWN ?????

This guy gets it. It was just a show for Krummy.
The number of hippies who think the judge in this decision MUST be a "white supremacist" assures me that Chicago is quite insane. I just hope Van Dyke gets out alive in a couple of years and gets the hell out of Chicago.
I wondered why Kwames ads were short and well produced and you never really heard him talk. Seeing and hearing him in action shows that he has nowhere near the oratory skills of the great manipulator Obama. This guy is just an out right idiot BUT still smarter than Foxx, you can see the writing on the wall of blaming the police for everything and the evil it allows to flourish.
I've been hearing alot about working with "millennial" coppers. Are "hair gels" now considered old timers.
Kwame & Co. is going to get revenge
for the perpetually aggrieved peoples
and folkses, one ruined Policeman and
Police Family at a time...
"We're gonna FINALLY get to show you
Cops how it feels..."
Irony?
For a people/folks who loudly invoke God,
the bible, the teachings of Christ and whose
communities have an astounding array and
density of houses of worship, they're obsessed
to the point of mania with getting revenge
and settling scores against The Police for
THEIR failure to thrive.
"The Police" are the default symbolization for
all that ails "The Community."
Especially "The Community" being proven (news headlines every damned
day and 50+ years of well documented historical precedent) to be wholly
unable to exercise control over baser impulses and refrain from
disrespecting, hating, injuring, killing, maiming, robbing, sabotaging
and tormenting each other and everyone else who has come to misery by
unfortunately crossing their path.
That they've become so politically, socially and culturally weaponized
as to demand that the rest of law abiding society be busted down to parity
with them instead of the reasonable expectation that THEY, elevate themselves
so that they too can reap the rewards of abiding in peace, mutual interest
and common purpose with the rest of every body else, is absolutely horrible.
But... This is their cherished "equality" that they've been
taught is their due.
Another irony...
What they loudly advocate for is totally counter to Judeo-Christian teachings.
The inability to look inward, genuflect and fix self
is avidly avoided because it may require actually
taking some responsibility.
Shirking responsibility and casting blame while demanding
everyone else be held accountable is the refuge of the
moral bankrupts in "The Community."
Anyway, as we said...
The peoples and folkses have their avengers
in the Attorney General's office and the
Cook County State's Attorney office.
Stand back, watch and be amazed at what
they're going to do...
KaKa Y mee sure sounds like a new race baiter
like kimmie fox lady
should represent the victims , seem to go after the good guys
one day black victims will wake up and vote the machine politicians out
Don’t worry be Happy, in CHI-Town, The Honorable Mayor Lori Lightfoot in Charge.
(OT) so the feds are reopening old cases civil rights how about sergeant drive by that shot the disabled kid even had video crickets hmm who was paid to be sure no outrage no marching no flakys no Jackson no Eddie with more questions than answers no kimesha who was all to happy to try to get Eddie to call feds on jussie case and even got Oscar tickets how did that happen?
Feds hit two indicted Chicago cops with new charges
https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/two-chicago-cops-face-new-charges-federal-indictment/
Kwame now that your not busy anything about sergeant drive by? Or were you told leave it alone due to connections?
Moral of the story.......
Don’t be the next person in Kwame’s sights.
Give the community what it wants.
It’s kinda puzzling how the FOP endorsed this jerk off in the past.
Kim and Kwame piss on their own constituents as much as R.Kelly does on underage girls in videos
McMahon is despicable.
Kwame is dishonest! 42nd Attorney General of Illinois yet ranks lowest in ability and veracity.
Seen Kyle? Anyone?
I just want to know if the new attorney general will continue to publish the dangerous toy list each Christmas like lisa did.
Totally OT but...ICYMI
Ford Explorer Owners Say Their SUVs Are Making Them Sick
Migraine headaches, fatigue and dizziness were sidelining Bert Henriksen several times a week. Evenings were the worst, after his 30-mile commute home in his 2017 Ford Explorer.
His behavior grew erratic. He’d get angry over minor things. “We were getting scared that he had some kind of a brain problem,” said his wife, Megan.
An answer came last March in a phone call from his doctor: A blood test revealed that Henriksen had been exposed to toxic levels of carbon monoxide gas. But how? The result was consistent with someone who’d been in a house fire, his doctor said, but Henriksen hadn’t been through anything like that.
He says his prime suspect was parked in his driveway.
Henriksen is among more than 3,000 Ford Explorer owners who’ve complained to Ford or federal regulators that they suspect exhaust fumes have seeped into their sport-utility vehicles’ cabins.
...And some police departments in the U.S. said in 2017 that Explorers used as cruisers were exposing officers to carbon monoxide

Of course rahm and his crew know about this but they don't care. Notice rahms fleet of police vehicles are all Chevy suburbans and tahoes, look at Eddie and his gold stars majority are tahoes do they know something about these killing machines?
seiser for attorney general
Thank you, thank you, Ford Explorer story.
Makes sense. Remember the time some early
season hunters used charcoal inside a cabin to
cook food. Police found them all dead in bed
a few days later when families did not hear from
them (in the days before cell phones).

I don't always watch Mayoral debates. But after watching this last one, If your the police you're Fucked. Stay Fetal My Friends.
The agenda of hatred and
"communerty" retribution
masquerading as "Justice..."
Protecting yourselves
from THEM, is "RACIST."
Right?
The first opportunity for AG Kawme Raoul to show some leadership in his newly elected position was to jump on the JVD sentencing. Kame thought it was gonna be a "slam dunk". You got "skunked" right from the "get go". You didn't even get a response from the Illinois Supreme Court. Even Lisa isn't that stupid. She never spoke in public unless her dad told her what to say. Its safer that way. But you on the other hand weren't that smart. You were looking for the spotlight and all you got was "jack shit".
Go back to Springfield and help Mikey and the rest of the Democrats help change Jaba da Hutt's diapers. He's got another load back there.
Amen to that, let's hope this is the end of trying to score points.. Anyone hear how's he doing. Maybe gotta keep pestering that prison?
A political decision knowing the end result while wasting tax payer funds. This is why we need smart lawyers in the attorney general's office.

Isn't there some rule in law which makes the losing attorney pay the cost of the suit? There should be.
What a hypocrite, allegedly.
This was not a fail for Kwame.
He's a social justice warrior and he's going to claim the system failed, but he TRIED, by God, he TRIED.
So, he bought himself some hero-worship from the perennially offended.
Well since he gets to use our money, we already paid.
54 years old with 33 on--- I feel your pain brother. Can't knock guys who took the 55 and out free insurance with less time on then you, they took advantage of something that was offered to them. Drop that last par form before 01 oct and you will soon be enjoying your life post cpd, hopefully with the 2% still in place.

there was no suit. The Supreme rejected it. They did not make a substantive decision. They just refused to hear it.

If you are 54 stay on until 55 and take advantage of the health care

Just your opinion, you have no idea. If the city wants to dump the 55, take it to arbitration
2% of pension for health insurance will remain But age will be raised to 59 and you will have to be maxed out in time
