1. Jon Burge’s boat, WTF?
Could it be that after decades of deception and stonewalling, former Chicago cop and torture impresario Jon Burge was done in by the name of his sleek sailboat?
If you believe the jurors in his perjury trial, it makes an appealing legal theory.
Let’s say this. This was a trial complicated by more-than-disreputable witnesses and crimes which, at the least, are far distanced from the heinous brutalities that Burge has all but escaped.
But given complexity, some federal juries will sift through all the grains of evidence looking for the one larger than expected nugget.
