Chicago Cop Who Lied About Proud Boys Ties Set to Return

Clip: 1/5/2023 | 2m 39sVideo has Closed Captions

A Chicago cop with Proud Boys ties is returning to duty.

Allowing a Chicago police officer who lied about his ties to the far-right Proud Boys extremist group to return to the department will “contribute to the erosion of trust between the public and law enforcement authorities,” according to a letter to Mayor Lori Lightfoot released Thursday by one of the nation’s best-known civil rights organizations.
