>>> GOOD EVENING, WELCOME TO THE WEEK IN REVIEW.

WE WILL BE JOINED BY OUR GUEST IN JUST A MOMENT, BUT FIRST, SOME OF TODAY'S TOP STORIES.

>>> TWO CHICAGO RESIDENTS HAVE DIED OF COMPLICATIONS DUE TO MONKEYPOX.

THIS IS ACCORDING TO AN ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE CHICAGO DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH.

THE AGENCY SAID THE TWO RESIDENTS HAD WEAKENED IMMUNE SYSTEMS AND OTHER HEALTH CONDITIONS.

PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS SAY THEY'VE ONLY BEEN 32 REPORTED DEATHS GLOBALLY AMONG 75,000 KNOWN CASES.

>>> FORMER AT&T ON MY PRESIDENT TIED TO NEW CORRUPTION CHARGES AGAINST HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE MADIGAN PLEADS NOT GUILTY.

HE'S CHARGED WITH FIVE CORRUPTION COUNTS ALLEGING HE ORCHESTRATED A SCHEME TO PAY OFF AN ALLY IN EXCHANGE FOR THE FORMER SPEAKER SUPPORT ON LEGISLATION.

AT&T HAS ADMITTED TO THE SCHEME IN A DEFERRED PROSECUTION DEAL.

MADIGAN IS ALSO CHARGED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS CASE ON TOP OF 22 COUNTS RELATED TO ALLEGED BRIBERY.

>>> CHICAGO POLICE DEPARTMENT DEFENDS THE DECISION NOT TO SUSPEND AN OFFICER FOR AN ALLEGED ASSOCIATION WITH A HATE GROUP.

DAVID BROWN ANSWERED QUESTIONS BEFORE A CITY COUNCIL BUDGET HEARING TODAY.

THIS AS AN INSPECTOR GENERAL REPORT RECOMMENDED REMOVING AN OFFICER AFTER AN INVESTIGATION FOUND AN ASSOCIATION WITH THE PROUD BOYS WHITE NATIONALIST GROUP.

SAYS THE ALLEGATIONS WERE NOT SUPPORTED BY A PREPONDERANCE OF THE EVIDENCE.

HE SAYS THE DEPARTMENT DID FIND MINOR VIOLATIONS OF POLICE DEPARTMENT CONDUCT IN ITS INTERNAL INVESTIGATION AND WE HAVE MORE ON THIS STORY ON OUR WEBSITE.

>>> A FAMILIAR FACE THAT MIGHT GET A CHANCE TO RETURN TO HIS OLD JOB WITH THE WHITE SOX.

MULTIPLE REPORTS SAY THE TEAM IS THAT INTERVIEW THE FORMER MANAGER FOR THE CURRENT MANAGERIAL OPENING.

HE WON THE WORLD SERIES WITH THE CLUB IN 20 05 AND HAD A STINT MANAGING THE MARLINS AND HAS SINCE BEEN A WHITE SOX TELEVISION ANALYST.

THE TEAM PARTED WAYS WITH THE FORMER MANAGER JUST BEFORE THE END OF THE SEASON.

EVERYTHING OLD MIGHT BE NEW AGAIN.

>>> NOW OUR WEEK IN REVIEW PANEL .

LET'S GET RIGHT INTO IT , THE CANDIDATES FOR GOVERNOR THROUGH PUNCH AFTER PUNCH UP THEIR FINAL DEBATE THIS WEEK, TAKE A LOOK.

>> DARREN BAILEY IS A TRUMP EXTREMIST.

HE OPPOSES ABORTION, HE THINKS IT'S OKAY TO FORCE A 13-YEAR-OLD RAPE VICTIM TO GIVE BIRTH.

>> CHICAGO IS THE NIGHTMARE CALLED PRITZKER VEIL AND IT'S STILL TWO WEEKS FROM HALLOWEEN.

>> BAILEY HAS SURROUNDED HIMSELF WITH RACIST , MISOGYNISTIC, HOMOPHOBIC AND XENOPHOBIC PEOPLE AND ORGANIZATIONS INCLUDING CHASING AFTER THE CHIEF AMONG THEM, DONALD TRUMP.

>> FRIENDS, LIFE IS WORSE TODAY THAN IT'S EVER BEEN IN ILLINOIS.

NOTHING HAS GOTTEN BETTER IN THE LAST FOUR YEARS.

>> HAS ANYTHING CHANGED IN THIS RACE AS A RESULT OF THESE DEBATES?

>> NO.

THE TEMPLATES WERE ESTABLISHED GOING IN.

YOU'VE GOT PRITZKER CAPITALIZING ON THE FACT OF THE SUPREME COURT'S RULING ON ABORTION AND THAT ILLINOIS IS KIND OF THIS ISLAND IN THE UNITED STATES FOR BEING ABLE TO PROVIDE ABORTION SERVICES FOR WOMEN.

>> I WILL PRESUME ANYTHING, BUT SAY YOU ARE ON UNDECIDED VOTER, DID ANYTHING GET ILLUMINATED FOR YOU WITH THESE DEBATES?

>> I DON'T THINK SO.

I DON'T KNOW HOW PEOPLE SHAKE HANDS AFTER THINGS LIKE THIS, AFTER THE THINGS YOU SAY AND IT'S SO STARK .

YOU DON'T LEARN ANYTHING, YOU JUST LEARNED THAT THEY DON'T LIKE EACH OTHER.

>> LIKE THE COACHES EXCHANGING EMBRACES AFTER A HARD-FOUGHT FOOTBALL GAME.

>> I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY DO THAT EITHER.

>> $2 MILLION DIRECTLY TO BAILEY'S CAMPAIGN, HE'S GIVEN $54 MILLION IN TOTAL MOSTLY TO AN ALLIED PACK, DOES THE SIGNAL THAT THESE FOLKS STILL THINK THERE'S A CHANCE THEY CAN CLOSE THIS GAP?

>> AS LONG AS THERE IS MONEY THAT RUNS ALMOST EVERY AD THEY DO RUN IS A NEGATIVE AD AGAINST PRITZKER, YEAH.

NOW DOES THAT MEAN, WE STILL HAVE A FEW WEEKS LEFT, BUT THE MONEY IS PAYING FOR MORE THAN JUST TV AS YOU SEE.

THERE'S A PAMPHLET THAT WENT EVEN TO DEMOCRATIC HOUSEHOLDS.

>> I'M TALKING ABOUT ONES THAT ARE EXPLICITLY ABOUT THIS.

THE GOVERNOR HAS A MAGAZINE HE'S BEEN SENDING OUT, BUT THE POINT IS THERE'S A LOT OF MONEY IN OTHER WAYS TO HAVE POLITICAL COMMUNICATION IN THIS $2 MILLION SHOWS THAT THERE IS STILL FAITH IN THE CAMPAIGN.

>> THERE ARE POLLS OUT THERE THAT RANGE ANYWHERE FROM HAVING PRITZKER UP BY 22 AN INTERNAL BAILEY POLL SHOWED HIM TRAILING BY ONLY 2, SHOULD WE TRUST ANY POLLS AT THIS TIME GIVEN WHAT'S HAPPENED OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS?

>> THE PREPONDERANCE OF THEM SAY SEEM TO SAY THAT PRITZKER IS UP AND HE'S GOT THE ECONOMIC MIGHT BEHIND HIM AND IT SEEMS LIKE WHAT THEY'RE GOOD AT IS STAYING ON MESSAGE AND BAILEY ESPECIALLY INTERRUPTING WHEN THE OTHER IS TALKING.

>> AT ONE POINT SHE LITERALLY SHUSHED HIM.

YOU COULD TELL SHE WAS GETTING FRUSTRATED WITH ALL THE INTERRUPTIONS.

>> WE TALK ABOUT THE EXTREMISTS IN THOSE CLIPS AND WHAT YOU HAVE ARE TWO EXTREMELY DIFFERENT CANDIDATES HERE.

>> YOU DON'T KNOW WHO TO VOTE FOR AT THIS POINT.

>> I THINK THE GOVERNOR'S RACE, IF YOU ARE UNDECIDED AND YOU TRULY HAVE NOT FOCUSED AND THERE ARE PEOPLE, BY THE WAY, THE SUN-TIMES WAS ACCURATE IN THE PRIMARY AND CLEARLY SHOWING THE LEAD THAT DARREN BAILEY HAD WHICH INDEED HELD AND HE BECAME THE NOMINEE SO WE HAVE A GOOD TRACK RECORD WITH THAT.

THE POINT BEING THAT THE CAMPAIGN IS FIGHTING FOR THE PERSUADABLE'S, SOME THEY'VE IDENTIFIED AND SOME NOT, SO I THINK THAT DEBATE DID PROVIDE INSIGHT DEPENDING ON WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.

IT WASN'T JUST THEY ARE EXTREME BUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO VOTE, THERE WAS INFORMATION IN THEIR THAT I THINK COULD GIVE YOU SOME INSIGHT AS TO WHAT TO DO.

>> CLEARLY THE PRITZKER CAMP IS NOT TAKING THIS LIGHTLY.

HE HAS POURED 38 MILLION INTO HIS OWN CAMP SO IS THERE ANY SENSE FROM THESE PEOPLE THAT SOMETHING COULD HAPPEN IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS AND THINGS COULD BE IN JEOPARDY?

>> I THINK ONE EXAMPLE IS TODAY THAT THEY ROLLED OUT AN AD WITH BARACK OBAMA IN IT ATTESTING TO PRITZKER AND I THINK PART OF THAT IS IT'S NOT LIKE AN OBAMA VISIT TAKING PLACE IN NEARBY STATES WHERE THERE'S A FEELING THAT THE RACE IS IN JEOPARDY FOR THE DEMOCRATS, BUT BY ROLLING OUT THAT AD I THINK WHAT IT REALLY IS IN RESPONSE TO THE PACK THAT IS ALLIED WITH BAILEY THAT HAS DEVOTED NOT ONLY DIRECT ATTACKS ON PRITZKER ON CRIME BUT HAS ALSO RECENTLY STARTED ROLLING OUT ADS FEATURING BLACK VOICES.

>> I DON'T SEE IT AS APPEALING RATHER THAN RAISING QUESTIONS.

>> CHARLES THOMAS SEEING BLACK PEOPLE SHOULD NOT VOTE FOR PRITZKER.

>> HE'S PAID TO DO THAT AND I THINK THAT IS IMPORTANT TO POINT OUT.

>> IT'S BEEN REPORTED $50,000 AND THIS WEEK HE WAS ATTACKED BY HIS FELLOW FORMER COLLEAGUES IN TV NEWS RON MAJORS WHO REALLY THOUGHT THERE WAS A PROBLEM.

>> AND THEY ARE USING THE NEWS IMAGERY TRYING TO SET UP HIS CREDIBILITY.

>> WHICH IS THE SAME AS THE PHONY NEWSPAPERS.

>> AND I SHOULD SAY, IT'S NOT UNUSUAL FOR JOURNALIST TO GO INTO POLITICS AFTER THEIR CAREER IN JOURNALISM.

IT HAPPENS.

>> I WAS THINKING LIKE THIS IS THE LIKE THOSE INSURANCE COMPANIES THAT USED TO RUN THESE ADS AND IT SAYS PAID ENDORSER.

>> THAT DISCLOSES THAT HE IS A PAID STAFF MEMBER OR WHATEVER.

>> I WOULD WISH THAT IF YOU ARE LISTENING TO TIDY IT UP AND JUST SAY A PAID VENDOR FOR THE DAILY DARREN BAILEY CAMPAIGN BECAUSE A LOT OF THESE ADS ARE GENERIC AND THEY MIGHT HAVE SOME PEOPLE AT HOME OR DEPENDING ON THE DEMOGRAPHIC THEY ARE APPEALING TO YOU AND YOU KNOW THEY MAY BE ACTORS OR REAL PEOPLE BUT THEY ARE TRYING TO GET SOME POINTS ACROSS.

WHEN YOU ARE USING THE CREDIBILITY OF SOMEONE WHO IS A KNOWN QUANTITY AND THEN THEY ARE PAID, IT'S DIFFERENT THAN IF THEY JUST RETIRED OR MOVED ON IN LIFE AND DECIDED TO DO IT.

>> IT'S DIFFERENT THAN VOLUNTEERING.

>> IT SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE USING THE CREDIBILITY OR OF THE PRESS OR FORMER JOURNALIST TO SWAY VOTERS.

I TALKED WITH THE ILLINOIS BOARD OF ELECTIONS AND I SAID THIS TIME THEY WERE NOT SURE IF THEY COULD BECAUSE THE FINANCIAL SIDE WAS A LITTLE DIFFERENT AND I SHOULD SAY THAT BAILEY MENTIONED HALLOWEEN ON THEIR AND MONDAY, JUSTIN KAUFMAN TELLS YOU HOW TO DRESS UP AS A GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE.

AS A SEXY GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE FOR ILLINOIS THIS YEAR.

>> I DON'T EVEN WANT TO KNOW WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE.

>> I CAN'T WASH THAT IMAGE OUT OF MY HEAD.

>> ONE WILL BE AN ELVIS WIG AND THE OTHER WILL BE A FLANNEL SHIRT.

>> THAT'S A REFERENCE TO SOMETHING THAT CAME UP IN THE DEBATE.

>> I HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK.

I DIDN'T KNOW THE DISCUSSION WAS GOING THIS WAY.

DOES THE SIGNAL THAT THEY MIGHT WANT TO CAUSE A LITTLE TROUBLE ON ELECTION DAY?

>> CAROL DAVIS IS HEAD OF THE CONSERVATIVE UNION OF ILLINOIS AND SHE'S IN A LEAGUE WITH PEOPLE LIKE CLETA MITCHELL WHOSE LEADING A NATIONAL EFFORT OF ELECTION DENIERS, SHE WAS ON THE PHONE CALL THAT TRUMP MADE TO THE GEORGIA SECRETARY OF STATE BRAD RUFFINS BERGER LOOKING FOR THOSE 11,000 VOTES.

SHE LOST HER JOB AT HER LAW FIRM RIGHT AFTER THAT.

THESE ARE NETWORK OF ELECTION DENIERS AND THERE IS CONCERN, CAROL DAVIS FOR EXAMPLE WHO IS LEADING TRAINING AS A PARTNER WITH THE ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THE DAILY CAMPAIGN, SHE'S ON RECORD IS TALKING ABOUT WANTING TO START LITTLE FIRES IN VARIOUS ELECTION OFFICES, NOT LITERALLY, BUT CREATE HAVOC BECAUSE THEY CAN'T PUT ALL OF THEM OUT.

SHE DENIES, SHE BELIEVES THE JANUARY 6 INSURRECTION WAS NT FOR SPONSORED, SHE WOULD'VE BEEN THERE EXCEPT SHE HAD A COLD AND EXPRESSED AS WOMEN OF THAT AND SHE BELIEVES THERE'S FRAUD IN EVERY ELECTION SO THIS IS KIND OF A MINDSET AND AS PART OF THIS RECRUITMENT PIT >> WITHOUT ANY PROOF WE SHOULD MENTION.

>> ABSOLUTELY, BUT AS PART OF THIS EFFORT, BAILEY IS TRYING TO RECRUIT 2000 POLL WATCHERS AND ELECTION JUDGES EVEN STARTING NOW WITH EARLY VOTING IN WHAT HE CALLS HIGH RISK PRECINCTS AND THOSE ARE PRECINCTS WHERE -- >> IT SOUNDS LIKE A WORD FOR CHICAGO.

>> CORRECT.

SO THERE'S EVERY POSSIBILITY.

>> DOES THE REPUBLICANS HAVE ALWAYS CLAIMED THERE'S ALL KINDS OF FRAUD HAPPENING IN CHICAGO.

>> THERE'S A POSSIBILITY THAT THESE CLAY COUNTY PEOPLE WILL BE COMING UP.

>> BEING FROM DOWNSTATE, BORN AND RAISED IN PEORIA WE OWE IT HAS THIS IMAGE OF CHICAGO, NOBODY LIKED WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THE BIG CITY, THEY THOUGHT BODIES WERE SENT DOWN THE CHICAGO RIVER AND THEY CAME DOWN PAST US AND ALL THE STORIES YOU HEAR.

SO IF THESE PEOPLE ARE ELECTION DENIERS, WHATEVER THEY MIGHT BE, IF THEY COME UP AND PULL WATCH AND ARE THEY ARE AND THEY SEE THERE'S NOTHING GOING ON, THEY CAN'T MAKE UP STUFF, IT MIGHT BE GOOD TO HAVE THEM IN-HOUSE, RIGHT?

>> HERE'S THE THING, THE NEW CODE WORD IS ELECTION INTEGRITY SO YOU HAVE THE POTENTIAL OF SLOWING THINGS DOWN IN A VOTING PRECINCT AND HAVING CHALLENGES THAT NORMALLY WOULD NEVER HAPPEN UNDER THE BANNER OF ELECTION INTEGRITY, SO I THINK HAVING THIS CADRE OF THIS TEAM, THIS ARMY OF PEOPLE UNDER THE BANNER OF ELECTION INTEGRITY WHICH KIND OF HIS AGAIN, IT'S JUST CODE FOR LOOKING FOR PROBLEMS.

>> AND LOOKING FOR REASONS TO MAYBE DISQUALIFY VOTERS AND SAY YOU CAN'T VOTE.

>> WE NOT HAD THIS BEFORE AND THAT'S WHY THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF ILLINOIS IS AWARE OF IT AND THEY ARE GOING TO RAISE THEIR OWN ARMY OF WATCHERS, BUT IT'S NOT THE SAME AS PEOPLE WHO MIGHT BE LOOKING TO SLOW THINGS DOWN AND CHALLENGING AS OPPOSED TO LEGAL OBSERVERS.

>> WHAT I DIDN'T GET IS THAT BAILEY IS SAYING WE WANT TO TELL PEOPLE TO HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE ELECTIONS AND AT THE SAME TIME THEY ARE DRAWING DOUBT ABOUT THE ELECTIONS.

>> THEY WERE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO DO MAILING.

>> THAT'S THE BIG CONUNDRUM HERE IS BECAUSE BAILEY HIMSELF HAD RAISED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE LEGITIMACY OF THE 2020 ELECTION.

>> AND NOW HE'S SAYING GO VOTE.

>> AND THE LEGITIMACY OF COURSE OF MAIL-IN BALLOTS AND DROP BOXES AND ALL THESE KINDS OF THINGS THAT ARE PART OF WHAT THESE ELECTION DENIERS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT, BUT HE'S LIKE GO VOTE.

YOU CAN VOTE RIGHT NOW.

HE SAYS HE WANTS TO RESTORE, PEOPLE LOST CONFIDENCE, WELL AWARE THAT LOSS OF CONFIDENCE COME FROM?

>> BECAUSE FOLKS KEPT SAYING WITHOUT EVIDENCE OF THERE WAS FRAUD.

>> WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT SUPPRESSION THAT WE MIGHT NOT BE THERE YET BUT IF THERE ARE PEOPLE WATCHING WITH iPHONES EVERY DROPBOX, THERE ARE STILL THINGS YOU CAN DO TO MAKE PEOPLE UNEASY ABOUT ELECTIONS, CREATING ISSUES THAT DON'T EXIST OR MAKING ACCUSATIONS.

>> IT MIGHT SCARE PEOPLE AWAY.

>> IT DEPENDS BECAUSE WE HAVE TO SEE MORE ABOUT HOW THIS UNFOLDS, BUT WE KNOW THAT THE ENVIRONMENT THAT THIS ELECTION IS TAKING.

>> IN THE ELECTION HERE THE TOP TICKET RACES DON'T LOOK TO BE VERY COMPETITIVE RIGHT NOW ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME COMPETITIVE NATIONAL RACES.

I ASKED DICK DURBIN WHAT HE FELT THE ODDS WERE THAT HIS PARTY WOULD KEEP THE SENATE.

>> I THINK THEY ARE 50-50.

I COULDN'T TELL YOU WHO HAS AN ADVANTAGE ANY GIVEN DAY.

THE DIFFERENCES IN MANY OF THESE RACES ARE ONE OR TWO POINTS AND I CAN SHIFT OVERNIGHT.

>> SO WE'VE GOT THESE SENATE RACES, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, NEVADA AND THEY SEEM TO JUST BE SWINGING BACK AND FORTH, IS THERE A SENSE THAT IT COULD GO EITHER WAY?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

THROW IN ARIZONA, TOO.

SO THE SWING STATES CONTINUE TO SWING, THERE'S NO SENSE THAT ANYONE HAS LOCKED IN, THE THING TO WATCH FOR LOOKING AHEAD IS IF THE DEMOCRATS SOMEHOW PICK UP TWO MORE SEATS EVEN IF THE HOUSE GOES TO THE REPUBLICANS, IF THE DEMOCRATS GET TO MARK MORE SEATS IN THE SENATE AND IT NEUTRALIZES THE ABILITY OF JOE MANCHIN, OF WEST VIRGINIA AND KIRSTEN CINEMA OF ARIZONA TO BE TWO PEOPLE WHO COULD BLOCK ANYTHING THEY WANT.

>> AND THIS IS WHERE PRESIDENT IS BIDEN IS SAYING THEY WOULD HAVE TO KEEP BOTH BUT HE WOULD PUT PRO-CHOICE LEGISLATION IN PLAY IF THEY DO KEEP BOTH HOUSES WHICH DOESN'T SEEM TO BE LIKELY AT THIS POINT.

LET'S MOVE MORE LOCAL.

HERE IS THE MAYOR COMMENTING ON THE POLICE SUPERINTENDENT'S DECISION TO SUSPEND RATHER THAN FIRE AND ALLEGED OFFICER WITH PROBABLY TIES.

>> THAT OFFICER WAS GIVEN A LENGTHY PERIOD OF SUSPENSION.

I DON'T GET INTO THE DETAILS OF THAT BUT I THINK IT'S ABOUT ACCOUNTABILITY AND I THINK THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TOOK THE STEPS WITH THE EVIDENCE THAT WAS GATHERED THROUGH THE COURSE OF THE TWO INVESTIGATIONS.

>> THIS IS A STRANGE STORY BECAUSE AN INVESTIGATION AND POLICE OFFICER HAD SOME COMMUNICATION AND TIES WITH THE PROUD BOYS AND LIED ABOUT MEETING WITH THE FBI ABOUT THIS AND DAVID BROWN TODAY IN CITY COUNCIL IS SAYING THERE WASN'T A PREPONDERANCE OF THE EVIDENCE SO WE JUST SUSPENDED HIM.

WHAT YOU MAKE?

>> IT SEEMS STRANGE BECAUSE ACCORDING TO WHAT I'D READ HE HAD ADMITTED THAT HE LIED AND THAT'S WHY HE WAS ABLE TO GET THE SUSPENSION AND I JUST CAN'T IMAGINE THAT THIS IS HELPING POLICE RELATIONS WITH THE COMMUNITY AND FRANKLY LORI LIGHTFOOT'S RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMMUNITY BY SAYING THIS GUY WHO ADMITTED HE LIED ABOUT MEETING WITH THE PROUD BOYS IS NOT GOING TO BE FIRED, EVEN IF IT'S RECOMMENDED.

>> I WONDER IF SHE THINKS SHE HAS TO KEEP A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE POLICE SUPERINTENDENT OR CAN'T BE SEEN PUBLICLY DISAGREEING RIGHT NOW.

>> WITH EVERYTHING GOING ON AND YOU HAVE AN ISSUE OF THE WHITE SUPREMACIST WITHIN THE RANKS OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT PIT >> THESE ARE JUST ALLEGATIONS.

ALTHOUGH THERE WAS A PRETTY DEFINITIVE REPORT THAT THE CPD SHOULD RECONSIDER.

>> RECONSIDER IT, RECONSIDER IT, AND INVESTIGATE.

>> SO YOU'RE SAYING THE INTERNAL INVESTIGATION MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN VERY DEEP.

>> THAT'S MY READING IS THAT THEY THINK THEY NEEDED TO GO BACK AND DO MORE INVESTIGATING TO GET TO THAT PREPONDERANCE OF THE EVIDENCE AND IT IS AN ALLEGATION, BUT NEVERTHELESS, YOU HAVE THE OFFICER ACCEPTING 120 DAYS AND I THINK IT WAS A SUPERINTENDENT SAYING HE WAS APOLOGETIC.

>> THE SUPERINTENDENT SAYING WE ONLY HAD ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO SUSPEND HIM FOR FIVE DAYS.

>> BECAUSE HE WAS BEING APOLOGETIC HE ACCEPTED THE 120 DAYS.

THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG.

>> I THINK IT ALSO SHOWS THAT THIS IS MAY BE A SIGN TO BE WATCHED OF THE MAINSTREAMING OF PROUD BOYS, BECAUSE THE FACT THAT WE ARE DISCUSSING THIS IN A WAY, AND I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD NORMALIZE THIS GROUP, SO I THINK THAT'S PART OF THE CAUTIONARY TALE OF WHAT'S GOING ON HERE.

I'M NOT HERE TO ANALYZE THE FIVE DAYS IS RIGHT OR NOT, BUT IF WE LOOK BACK, LOOK AT HOW WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IT.

>> I THINK THERE'S ALL KINDS OF OF THESE GROUPS HAVE IN INFILTRATED LAW ENFORCEMENT.

>> THAT I THINK IS REALLY THE THING TO KEEP WATCHING, CHICAGO AND OTHER PLACES IN THE SENSE A NORMALIZATION OF SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE WATCHED.

>> LET'S MOVE ON TO SPORTS.

RICK, WE ARE SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU HERE.

THE BULLS MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT BE PLAYING RIGHT NOW BUT WE FELT HOPE FOLKS WAY TO T IT OUT.

ZACH LEVINE THE GIVE 200+ MILLION DOLLARS TO TO BE THERE BIG STAR AND HE'S SITTING AT THE FIRST TWO GAMES WITH A KNEE PROBLEM WHICH DOCKED HIM LAST YEAR, DID THE BULLS MISREAD THE MEDICAL PROGNOSIS?

>> I THINK THEY MIGHT HAVE.

HE MIGHT BE PLAYING TONIGHT.

>> I THINK HE WAS RULED OUT FOR TONIGHT.

>> IT'S TOUCH AND GO AND HE SAYS HE'S FINE.

$200 MILLION MEANS THIS GUY IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE BIG GUY.

KNEES ARE SUCH FRAGILE PARTS OF A BALLPLAYERS PHYSIQUE, WHEN YOU PLAY AN EXPLOSIVE GAME LIKE HE DOES AND THE SAME IS TRUE.

THEY ARE MISSING ONE'S A BALL AND HE LOOKED LIKE HE WAS GOING TO BE A GREAT PLAYER BUT HE IS GOT A BAD KNEE.

YOU DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT TAKES AND IF IT EVER COMES BACK.

HE HURT HIS KNEE WAY BACK IN MINNESOTA.

>> IT PRETTY MUCH DUG THE MALL LAST YEAR.

>> BECAUSE IT LOOK LIKE THEY ARE REALLY ON THE CUSP IT STILL NOT ON THE LEVEL OF MILWAUKEE, DID THEY DO ENOUGH IN THE OFF-SEASON TO IMPROVE?

>> PROBABLY NOT BUT THEY DIDN'T KNOW FOR A LONG TIME THAT MANZO BALLS THAT ARE NOT COMING BACK UNTIL MY KNEE IS 100 PERCENT.

THAT'S 40 PERCENT OF YOUR STARTING TEAM SO HOW DO YOU BUILD A TEAM.

I WAS LOOKING AT THE GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS, THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE A PAYROLL OF HALF $1 BILLION THIS YEAR.

SO YOU CAN LOOK AT HIS 200 MILLION IN THAT REGARD IN THAT WAY I GUESS IF YOU WANT TO.

>> AND IT SPREAD OVER MULTIPLE YEARS.

>> WERE NOT GOING TO FEEL SORRY FOR ANY OWNERS RIGHT NOW, BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS THE FANS WOULD LIKE TO SEE A GOOD TEAM AND THEY HAD WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A NUCLEUS OF A GOOD TEAM, THINK THEY HAVE ROSEN.

>> IF THERE'S ANYTHING THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY FOR HIM.

>> HE LOOKED GREAT THIS FIRST YEAR.

THERE ARE SOME STORIES THAT THEY MIGHT INTERVIEW US AGAIN TO COME BACK AFTER THE TONY LARISSA FIASCO.

>> THAT WOULD BE EXCITING.

WE SEEN HIM BEFORE.

HE CAN'T SPEAK WITHOUT USING SWEAR WORDS.

HE SAID IT'S NOT HIM.

HE DOESN'T ON TV SOMEHOW.

>> HE SENSORS HIMSELF.

>> HE WANTS HIS JOB, HE'S BEEN LOBBYING TO GO BACK.

JERRY REINSDORF SETTLED THAT OLD SCORE WITH TONY LARISSA, THIS JOKER MAY BE KATE GLEASON WHO MANAGE THE 1919 BLACK SOCKS, MAYBE HE GOT A RAW DEAL.

>> IT'S KIND OF A BLESSING AND A WAY THAT LARISSA HAS A HEALTH ISSUE, GIVE HIM A WAY OUT.

HE NAMED THE BERTELSON CENTER AFTER HIS SECRETARY WHO DIED, SO HE'S VERY LOYAL AND PASSIONATE ABOUT THINGS LIKE THAT.

HE DOESN'T FIRE PEOPLE EVEN WHEN MAYBE THEY SHOULD BE.

OF KENNY WILLIAMS WHO STILL THERE, IF THEY CAN HANDLE HIM COMING BACK, YOU KNOW HE WANTS IT BADLY, THERE'S NOTHING LIKE BEING THE GUY IN THE DUGOUT.

>> IT WOULD BE A NEW DIMENSION.

>> LIKE MIKE DITKA LEFT WE WERE LIKE THIS IS SAD.

>> HOW MUCH DOES THE BEARS MANAGEMENT BELIEVE IN JUSTIN FIELDS BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF TALK ABOUT THIS NEW GENERAL MANAGER DID NOT INVEST MUCH IN THE OFFENSIVE AND JUSTIN FIELDS AND YOU SEE THE STRUGGLES.

>> HE'S GOT A PLAN FOR THE FUTURE, KIND OF LIKE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO WAIT AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS THIS YEAR.

THIS IS ABOUT FIELD DEVELOPMENT AND THE UNFORTUNATE PART IS IF YOU DON'T SURROUND SOMEBODY WITH THE TALENT IN THE COACHING AND THE CONTINUITY AND HOW DO YOU DEVELOP?

>> IT KEEPS HAPPENING.

>> WE GET TO WEEK EIGHT.

>> ONE MORE GAME LIKE LAST WEEK, I THINK HE WILL BE INJURED.

>> YOU WONDER WHAT IT DOES TO HIS MENTAL DEVELOPMENT, TOO.

SO DO YOU THINK THEY FIGURED OTHER PROBLEMS FOR MONDAY NIGHT AGAINST NEW ENGLAND?

>> THE PROBLEM IS BILL BELICHICK IS TIED FOR SECOND PLACE ALL-TIME WITH GUESS WHO, GEORGE HOWELL IS AND IF HE WINS THIS GAME HE WILL ONLY BE BEHIND THAT PACKERS GUY.

>> THE OLD MIAMI COACH.

>> DON SHULA.

>> HE'S NOT GOING TO LOSE ON MONDAY NIGHT.

>> THAT'S GOT TO BE MOTIVATION FOR THE BEARS TO NOT LET HIM FALL BEHIND.

>> WE ARE OUT OF TIME, THIS WAS A GREAT DISCUSSION BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE TO LEAVE IT THANK YOU TO ALL OF US FOR JOINING US.

THAT IS OUR SHOW FOR THIS FRIDAY NIGHT.

DON'T FORGET YOU CAN GET CHICAGO TONIGHT AND THE WEEK IN REVIEW STREAMED ON FACEBOOK, YOUTUBE AND OUR WEBSITE, WTTW.COM SLASH NEWS AND BE SURE TO JOIN US TOMORROW NIGHT AT 6:00 FOR CHICAGO TONIGHT LaTINA VOICES.
