Where's Barz?

Anyone surprised? We certainly aren't:

• It's a decade-long issue that Chicagoans have sought accountability for: Drivers of color, many of whom have now filed lawsuits, allege they were subjected to pretextual traffic stops, or stops turned searches to investigate a crime that has nothing to do with the traffic violation they were pulled over for.

  Members of one Chicago police tactical team on the near north side - the 1863 tactical team -- have faced the most misconduct complaints surrounding this type of enforcement than any other, according to the city's police watchdog agency.

  And after a year-long investigation into the eight-person 1863 tactical team, the ABC7 I-Team has learned through court and public records that four members have been relieved of police powers, and two others, including the team's sergeant, have been reassigned to other parts of the city, leaving only two members still working in the 18th District.

The one re-assignment (according to comments) is to the usually desirable Gang Investigation Section, so not a penalty by any means.

Missing from any accountability - supervisors who demanded (and got) thousands of street stops, making promises to keep low seniority officers off of midnights in exchange for the TSSSSSSS cards that they passed off as crime fighting and used to grease their way to bigger and better things before coasting to cushy retirement gigs.

All those promises mean diddly-squat now - none survived the career of the now retired exempt(s).

In the meantime, Officers, raise your right hand, and please list your assets for the Court. 

You have our sympathies, but you were warned.
