Police “disappeared” more than 7,000 people at an off-the-books interrogation warehouse in Chicago, nearly twice as many detentions as previously disclosed, the Guardian can now reveal.
From August 2004 to June 2015, nearly 6,000 of those held at the facility were black, which represents more than twice the proportion of the city’s population. But only 68 of those held were allowed access to attorneys or a public notice of their whereabouts, internal police records show.
The police portrayals contrast sharply with those of Homan Square detainees and their lawyers, who insist that “if this could happen to someone, it could happen to anyone”. A 30-year-old man named Jose, for example, was one of the few detainees with an attorney present when he surrendered to police. He said officers at the warehouse questioned him even after his lawyer specifically told them he would not speak.
“The Fillmore and Homan boys,” Jose said, referring to police and the facility’s cross streets, “don’t play by the rules.”
Mayor Rahm Emanuel echoed Chicago Police Department talking points when he was asked on Chicago Tonight about The Guardian’s report that suspects were “disappeared” at a West Side detention facility.
“That’s not true,” Emanuel said of the report. “We follow all the rules. … Everything’s done by the books.”
They are kept dirt poor for a reason. They are locked into their hoods and can’t escape. They are at their mercy. That whole area should be named Organ Hood. Shootings Deaths by Fire and Knifings. Accidents. How do we know the truth of what shape they are really in. Ambulances EMTS. They are all involved. The ME too. We have discussed in posts how everything is pulled together for a perfect result. The old days are gone. They know how to preserve them now.
I have a friend that used to be a nurse. She has been retired for a while now. She totally disbelieves the organ harvesting because she says they can't preserve them. I try to explain that they have perfected the process. I think it is just too horrid for her to admit after spending her whole life saving people and doing good. I can understand why she can't go there. It's ugly.
