Bail in the United States: What It Is, How It Works, and Why It Matters
When someone gets arrested in the United States, the first thing people usually ask isn’t about the charges. It’s simple: How do we get them out?
Police Plan To Arrest Teens At ‘Drug Corners’ Ahead Of 4th Of July Weekend
The holiday weekend typically sees a spike in shootings and murders — and Chicago's already been struggling with shootings and the recent slayings of children.
CHICAGO — Police will arrest young people working at “drug corners” ahead of this Fourth of July weekend, the city’s top cop said during a Monday press conference.
Supt. David Brown said he hopes the effort can prevent shootings and homicides over the long weekend, especially as Chicago is already facing a sharp spike in violence.
It’s a strategy used previously by Chicago Police over holiday weekends, but it’s seldom been spelled out like Brown did. Brown’s remarks have led to criticism from people who say the arrests are a temporary measure that punishes young people but won’t have an effect on the city’s violence.
Brown, speaking to reporters Monday, said “evil, murdering b——s” employ “young kids” to sell drugs and hold guns at open air drug markets on street corners. Those kids are sometimes used in shootings, which can lead to retaliatory violence, Brown said.
Police plan to “clear the corners” so they can prevent some of the violence that centers around drugs and retaliatory shootings, Brown said when explaining how the department will try to prevent violence this weekend.
“We’re left with clearing the corner, because the corner is whether the violence is centered around because it’s so profitable,” Brown said.
Police officers will make arrests for the two things that lead to violence — unlawful use of weapons and open air drug markets — in the leadup to and during the weekend, Brown said.
