Bring It

  • The fuse has been lit. When and if the bomb goes off, prestigious Chicago institutions — Northwestern University, the Cook County State's Attorney's Office, prominent media outlets — and people — a sitting judge, a former state's attorney, prominent journalists — will have more than egg on their faces.

    That's why it's hard to imagine that a lawsuit filed against Northwestern and onetime prominent journalism Professor David Protess on behalf of a man wrongfully convicted of murder will actually go to trial. Too many have too much to lose — this is a scandal that has to be buried deep.

    But what a scandal it is — ironic corruption from the deeply compromised city with an "Ubi est mea" ("Where's mine?") mind-set.

    Here's the original storyline.
We aren't going to spoil, it, so click over and read the article, but suffice it to say, no one in any of the listed institutions comes out looking good. In fact, everyone listed ought to be assessed significant monetary damages for the complete perversion of the justice system.

Not to worry, liberals in their usual fashion will either sweep it under the rug, or totally ignore it.

NOOOOOOOO!
Don't look HERE!
Look over by THERE at what
the out-of-control, racist, Mount Greenwood/
Dunning dwelling COPS are doing!

Get THEM!
Not us!

They're the problem, aren't they?
We in the media and academia
demand that the focus on our
fuckery should be made to go away.

Hoping they all get smacked big time for the money payout. Question is, will Chicago media fully blast this story or let it die?

Great story. Too bad that's the last we'll ever hear of it.

They should add Eric Zorn to the law suit. He was as complicit as anyone else in locking up an innocent man and freeing a murderer.

Man we have been waiting but you know it is going to be buried. These university educated third graders are going to be judged by people who likely are not nearly as purportedly as educated as they are; which I hope will add insult to the injury they have to pay for. But as you said, we have to wait to see how it plays out. Never let anyone be your social conscience, especially politicians and professors. Most have no conscience of any kind you want.

Let's not forget the efforts of Officer Prieb in helping to bring this story to the forefront.

This story will go the way of the cheating scandal. Nowhere

a settlement and the sealing of court records will probably be the end of this story. The powers and political class do not want scandal so deep, just as they will never make public any investigation into cheating on promotional examinations. The corrupt merit system is here to stay and is not part of the campaign of Rahm for " transparency and accountability" within the police department.

Northwestern graduates: your degree is about to get cheapened again.

First, it was the hiring of communist terrorist Bernadine Dorhn to a permanent teaching post at NU law school, even though the two states to which she's applied for a basic law license refuse to give her one on grounds she is unfit.

Then it was live sex shows in class -
http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2011/03/03/the-story-behind-northwestern-universitys-live-sex-class

....and now serial liar David Protess, his bevy of fibbing Medilldos and NU itself are about to go to center stage again.

$76,000.00 a year tuition for "higher education."


Feeling cheated?



p.s. Did Alvarez, Devine or any other Crook Co prosecutors ever explain why Protess and his leftist beauties were never charged with felonies like, say, conspiracy, eavesdropping, or obstruction? I don't remember anyone saying anything.

There was a movie where the protagonist was talking
on the phone with someone willing to help him make
shit right. It was a long time ago so we're paraphrasing:

Protagonist: "It's gonna be grimy and some motherfuckers are
just gonna have to die..."

Inside Guy: "Hey, as long as it ain't me or my
partner, I don't give a fuck."

Sheer entertainment if Mr. Crawford set the wheels
in motion for these assholes to start cannibalizing
each other.

I wish Terry Ekl would pick a side. One day he'll defend a cop....the next day he'll go after one.....

Eric Zorn So hated the death penalty he helped free a killer. And helped send an innocent man to jail.

Devine and his staff should be arrested and put in prison. Now, lets watch this Foxx's States Attorney, for not doing her job or a lack of protecting the public at the cost of political correctness to us all.

Long before Ferguson, this and all the related Burge torture hoopla was quite probably the begining of the police deconstruction phenomenon. Liberal mental illness meets useful idiots trying to salvage their industrial sized corruption complex. The gift just keeps on giving, welcome to the foxx guarding the hen house. . .

Maybe he did, but he sure got off on all the publicity and attention he got when all this was going on. And he fed into it and refused to retract, even after he was proven wrong....Since there's no libel in the truth, feel free to call him a jag off.

Rod Blago is a Northwestern U. graduate. How come there is no campus wide movement to set him free? After all he was never accused of Moi-Der!

A lot of what Protess wanted was to undermine the death penalty, and not really the innocence of inmates. They are not going to go for the Death Penalty unless there is an overwhelming preponderance of the truth.
