Finally, a Good Sentence

Well this is a welcome change from previous incidents:

• On August 9, 2020, a spark of misinformation about a man shot by Chicago police ignited a night of widespread looting along the Magnificent Mile, the Loop, and in neighborhood retail corridors across the city.

  The misinformation that the Chicago Police Department’s then-superintendent, David Brown, blamed for the uprising were inaccurate social media claims that cops had shot a 15-year-old boy.

  In a city still reeling from waves of rioting and looting that followed the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officers, the chatter spread quickly and widely. Soon, the rumors turned into direct calls for looting in the downtown area. By that night, a rampage was underway.

• The officers responded to calls of a man with a gun in Moran Park, and they saw Allen nearby, matching the suspect’s description. He ran, and the police chased him into an alley, where he fired at least eight shots at them, officials said.

  [...]

  A jury needed less than three hours to convict Allen on four counts of attempted murder and four counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm earlier this year. Today, Judge Thomas Byrne sentenced him to 60 years: 40 years for attempted murder plus 20 years for personally discharging a firearm during the crime, according to clerk of court records.

Sixty years. We spend a lot of time ripping Crimesha's office for their constant string of f@#$ ups - it almost seems a job requirement. But even a blind squirrel finds a nut every so often. Looks like the office found a nut.
