Charges

Gee, a convicted felon. Who would have thunk it?

• A convicted felon was charged Wednesday in the deadly shooting of Chicago Police officer Enrique Martinez that erupted during a traffic stop earlier this week in the South Side Chatham neighborhood and also claimed the life of the vehicle’s driver.

  Darion McMillian, 23, of Harvey, faces felony charges of first-degree murder in the killings Monday night in the 8000 block of South Ingleside Avenue, Police Supt. Larry Snelling told reporters at Public Safety Headquarters. McMillian used a handgun that was equipped with an extended magazine and was modified to fire automatically, Snelling said.

  “On Monday night, our department and our city lost a hero when officer Enrique Martinez was shot and killed protecting the city of Chicago,” Snelling said. “Today is the first step in bringing his killer to justice.”

  McMillian also faces felony counts of attempted murder of a police officer, burglary, possession of a machine gun and possession of a gun as a felon, Snelling said.

Crimesha had the nerve to show up in person and preach the "progressive" democrat line:

• Foxx noted she had appeared at a similar news conference just last week to discuss officers who had been fired upon but weren’t harmed. Like Snelling, she blamed Chicago’s intractable violence on what she described as an “overproliferation of guns.”

  “We need reasonable, common sense gun legislation nationally, with an impact here in Cook County,” she said.

No, you useless fuckwit. We need actual punishment for crimes  and truth in sentencing where twenty years means twenty-fucking years. Thank god you'll be gone by the time this goes to trial.
