It’s been a big week — you could say a historic week in Chicago, especially on the criminal justice front. Jury selection has wrapped up in the
murder trial of Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke, and we should find out
later this morning whether he opts for that jury — or a judge — to decide his
fate.
Meanwhile, a final draft of the
consent decree that will govern reforms at the Chicago Police Department has
been filed.
As part of our Friday
News Roundup, we’ll bring you up to speed on those stories…as well as other
big local news of the week.
