The video of the attack can be seen here.
Fellow officers attempted to conceal and hide evidence and testimony against him. None of them have been fired except the man responsible for the incident. He however escaped jail time. Not only that but it’s taken a Federal case to get anything done. Guess we see why Chicago only wants it’s officers armed.
State Sponsored Criminal #460: Anthony Abbate

Because when your cop buddy gets drunk and assaults someone, your job as a fellow officer is to protect and serve them.



The attacker should have gotten his ass kicked right there on the spot but alas, no one stepped in to protect the innocent. This is how evil wins. We are cowards.
What I find most ironic about that, I’m reasonably sure if anyone had stepped up, their buddies would have beat the hell out of the person and the prosecutor would file charges for assaulting a police officer.
The legal system is so abused at this point many won’t step up to help just because of the fact that in so doing they open themselves to total destruction. It does nothing more than reinforce inaction because “It’s not my problem.”
Except in the end you’re right, it’s how evil wins. As I said above, even if you step up evil will ultimately win anyway, they’re holding the cards.
