4 ex-Chicago cops to plead guilty to corruption

The Chicago Tribune reports:

Four former Chicago police officers implicated in the Special Operations Section scandal have made deals to plead guilty in exchange for cooperating with the investigation, a sign that the state and federal probes of one of the city's biggest police corruption scandals ever is coming to a head, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the investigation.
Most of the officers who turned themselves in at a police station this morning have not previously been charged in the SOS case, but they had made deals with state prosecutors as early as 2006 to eventually plead guilty to reduced charges in exchange for their testimony.
They are expected to testify at trial and have already provided grand jury testimony against former Officer Jerome Finnigan and several others who are accused of running a robbery and home invasion ring for years, acting under the guise of busting street gangs and rounding up guns.

Sally Daly, spokeswoman for the Cook County state's attorney's office, confirmed that four officers will be arraigned in criminal court Friday.

Is gun control in Chicago a good idea when these guys have a monopoly gun ownership?
