City to pay $525,000 after cops beat autistic teen at family’s restaurant

           Whoa. That's all that I can say to law enforcement abusing anyone, let alone a mentally challenged individual. I find it interesting that they were more worried about loosing officers on the street than they were about giving the family money to support their beaten child. They claimed that the $525,000 was worth 7 or 8 foot patrol officers and did not explain what the money was worth to the family.
           This may financially effect the Chicago Police Department, but if they are not willing to spend the money to train their officers and get the right people they must want to have the financial burdens placed on them. With this being a reoccurring thing, they either need to learn or pay up.
