  1. Here from the future, we finally have a verdict: Marco Simonetti, who joined the force in 1994, received a sentence of two years probation from Judge Maria Kuriakos-Ciesil. The misdemeanor charge was reduced to felony aggravated battery, according to court records, and prosecutors dropped two felony counts of official misconduct.
    Atleast he stepped down as a police officer in January 2023, but it's a slap on the wrist.
    The victim Joshua Habasek-Bonelli got 550k from the city of chicago in June 2023.

  2. Get more than disciplinary action. He assaulted the man with a weapon. NOBODY knows what medical conditions people may have – epilepsy, bad heart, mental disorders – that may be triggered by an electric shock. It can be a deadly weapon

  3. Progressive Leftist Prosecutors and Progressive Leftist Judges always love to blame police and protect anyone the cops are trying to catch. It's a catch-and-release policy just like the Progressive Leftist border policy! When are we going to stand up?

  4. The comments below are definitely anti-police. Injuries are always a bad thing, but the issue here is whether the officer was to blame. HE WAS NOT TO BLAME.

When progressive media news outlets such as WGN News advertise a YouTube this way, implying a bad cop, it attracts anti-police YouTube video viewers. The pond scum of society who always favor the criminals.

  5. "We investigated ourselves and have determined no wrongdoing or policy violations in the incident of an unarmed criminal with no criminal background committing suicide by shooting himself 37 times in the back." Cops reaction "in this day and age".
