Appropriate Charges Filed
Amazing what having a reasonably competent States Attorney does to the system:
An Arlington Heights man has been charged with attempted murder of a Chicago police officer after he allegedly hit the officer with his car while driving under the influence in Austin early Sunday morning, Chicago police said.
Jose Ruiz-Crespin, 22, faces two felony charges: attempted second-degree murder and aggravated DUI, police said. He also faces five related DUI misdemeanor charges, as well as another for driving without insurance.
Shortly after midnight in the 100 block of North Lamon Avenue, Chicago police were patrolling on foot when they encountered a small crowd, and Ruiz-Crespin attempted to leave, police said. As he did so, he hit an officer with his sedan, causing the officer to fall and sustain an ankle injury; the officer was taken to a hospital in good condition.
We all know exactly what Crimesha would have done. Let's see how it plays out in Court.

Don’t be fooled. They just charged him to keep him out of the hands of ICE. They’ll whittle down the charges in due time and he’ll get probation
Did you contact ICE?
Definitely overcharged him. Looks good though.
Att-Murder charge for an ankle injury? I did not see the video but that seems quite excessive.
Seen officers sliced and stabbed responding to violent domestics and offenders charged with agg batt at most.
Outstanding!
