“A Chicago Police sergeant who fatally shot a 19-year-old man last week is facing a lawsuit for killing another man in 2013 while he was off-duty – and a gun has not been recovered in either case,” the Sun-Times reports.
“Sgt. John Poulos has been stripped of his police powers while investigators look into the death of Kajuan Raye on Wednesday in West Englewood.
“Poulos said he saw Raye point a gun at him twice during a footchase, but investigators were unable to find a weapon, authorities say. Raye was shot in the back.
“Police Supt. Eddie Johnson has said he asked Poulos for his badge and gun as investigators try to answer the ‘many unanswered questions’ in the case.
“Poulos faces a lawsuit in Cook County Circuit Court in the 2013 fatal shooting of another man, Rickey Rozelle, 28.”

This surprised me when I started writing about media. If you question large outlets, they say: “we don’t comment on what we publish.” #Irony

Yes, Democrats will re-discover their belief in civil liberties on 1/20/17 as quickly as they got rid of it on 1/20/09. #UniteBlue https://t.co/pHMeZzK9fl
