#1 What a miscarriage of justice! How can these sorts of things happen in Chicago?

#3 Brown was stripped of her police powers after her arrest.

So, where's the "former" came from?

#4 Reminds me of the New Orleans police officers filmed shoplifting in the Walmart store during Katrina.

#5 Sure this wasn't a mistake? She's probably Rahm's go between for a Soody payment and the bank didn't get the word.

#9 And not only was the defendant in Wednesday's bench trial a former Chicago police officer, but prosecutors say she attempted to deposit the bad check in her account at the Chicago Patrolmen's Federal Credit Union.

Don't forget, folks. These are the types of people 'The One®', his 'controllers' and his lackeys are used to dealing with. They are now beginning to realize that normal folks in the other 56 states don't view life in the same way.

#10 "Former Chicago police officer convicted for $1 million bogus check"

What, she didn't give the judge a big enough cut?

#11 Prosecutors said Brown tried to deposit the check in August 2006, saying it was a windfall from a legal settlement involving Six Flags Great America amusement park in suburban Gurnee.

The hands of justice move quite slowly in Cook County.
