Judge: Cop's testimony did not pass the smell test.

[Dondilion]

It sad when cops get creative in trying to make a case stick end up putting other cases in doubt. In places like Chicago, where there is tremendous pressure to get the perps off the street, the temptation for cops to use illegal means is great.

Additionally cop's bad behavior makes a Judge who sticks to the law to be viewed by many as soft.

Crime-ridden Chicago is a great challenge to law and order.
