Chicago cops accused of covering up Laquan McDonald shooting death to go to trialThree Chicago police officers are set to go to trial Tuesday on charges they conspired to cover up a fellow officer's actions in the police shooting death of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald. This is so shameful Anybody who automatically believes cops over suspects or witnesses is a fool. Period. Without evidence like body cam footage, there is no reason whatsoever to believe anything a police officer says, especially when their body cam somehow was switched off during an incident.

Verdict Expected For Chicago Cops Charged In Cover-Up Of Laquan McDonald ShootingThree Chicago cops are expected to learn today if they will be convicted for allegedly covering up for a fellow officer in the high-profile shooting death of black teenager Laquan McDonald. Justice for LaquanMcDonald is my prayer. They should be. I know every police procedural I’ve ever seen highlights the shades of grey within the law enforcement system, but covering up the execution of a kid by a fellow cop is a no brainer. 🤷‍♂️ If they helped cover it up, they should go to PRISON. Enough of this, 'I was 'scared' so I shot him' defense. Cops 'exaggerate' situations all the time, believe me. Send a message. Lock these guys up.
