At least one of the detectives followed this to the ugly end. He must be given credit for not sweeping this away. Also , I think you are correct. There are dozens of others like it if not hundreds There was an unbelievable captain in the Chicago Police Force (Jon Burges) that routinely tortured prisoners. It took years for that to be exposed and many years more before he was brought to trial on charges of lying to a grand jury, as opposed to the torture itself. The federal government finally got him..But for every one that caught, so many get away..never charged.
