The Officer in the Laquan McDonald Case Pleads Not Guilty
He said he wants them to review the training around how officers respond to mental health crisis calls, and determine deficiencies and how to immediately address them.

The Chicago police officer who shot a black teenager a year ago has pleaded not guilty to murder charges, as Mayor Rahm Emanuel cut short a vacation after two more fatal police shootings over the weekend. “He will arrive back in Chicago on Tuesday afternoon”, Emanuel spokeswoman Kelley Quinn said in a statement.
But it seems that even before June there would be a lot of pressure on the office simply because of another recent event in which an officer shot a 55-year-old woman accidentally and another 19-year-old boy because he was “combative”.
“72 Robert”, she said, identifying the squadrol by its beat number, according to a recording of the dispatch.
LeGrier, an honor student at Gwendolyn Brooks College Preparatory Academy in Chicago, enrolled at NIU in fall 2014 with plans to study electrical engineering.
Court records in DeKalb County, where the teen was attending school, show that LeGrier had been in trouble with police before Saturday’s shooting. She was “accidentally struck and tragically killed”, a police statement said.
A Chicago police spokesman, Anthony Guglielmi, said on Monday he did not know if there was video of the shooting. “This tragedy further underscores the need for a broad and deep federal investigation, which I continue to strongly support”.
It said the shootings were being investigated by the Independent Police Review Authority. It was approximately 4:30 a.m. Quintonio LeGrier had allegedly been brandishing a metal baseball bat in the moments before his death.
Andrea Zopp has every reason to call for embattled Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to resign.
Emanuel will return from his Cuba adventure on Tuesday, reports the Chicago Tribune.
It was not clear if Emanuel was home during the protest.
McDonald, 17, was shot 16 times on October 20, 2014.
He faces six murder charges and one count of official misconduct over the killing of Laquan McDonald, 17.
Critics have accused Emanuel of keeping the video under wraps until after he won a second term in April.
“We’re talking about trust and believability”, Ford said.
The department already was under investigation by the Justice Department when police on Saturday shot and killed two people.
Also killed was 55-year-old Bettie Jones, a resident in the same building. The man cursed the mayor before punching Henry with a closed fist, tackling him and then kicking him repeatedly, WBBM-TV reported.
(CNN)Antonio LeGrier hoped police would help his son when he called 911 last week.
“Bettie was a loving person who loved music and loved church”, said Mr. Cole who leads the organization, My Block My Hood My City.
LeGrier’s father has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Chicago police. They did not say whether there was a video of the incident and provided no information on officers involved.
In total, he stole $462.86 worth of goods from the store and caused $100 in damage to a lock, police said.
Van Dyke’s attorney Daniel Herbert has said Van Dyke feared for his life and insists that the video doesn’t tell the full story.
Quintonio LeGrier died from multiple gunshot wounds, the Cook County Medical Examiner said.
Last month, Officer Jason Van Dyke was charged with first-degree murder, and former Chicago Police Superintendent Gerry McCarthy stepped down. The teenager, armed with a knife, was veering away from officers when Van Dyke opened fire.

The Police Department suspended Van Dyke without pay after he was charged. The team is scheduled to play the Denver Nuggets in Denver on Tuesday night.
