Cline takes on thug cops
Six stripped of police powers in 2nd bar beating

March 28, 2007
BY ANNIE SWEENEY Crime Reporter

Anthony Abbate should have walked in and out of a Cook County courthouse like any other accused criminal Tuesday morning, Chicago Police Supt. Phil Cline said.

Instead, the burly Chicago cop, who is accused of pummeling a petite female bartender during a drunken rage, was shielded from the media by on-duty Grand Central District officers, who apparently were acting on the orders of their captain when they used police vehicles to hide Abbate as he left the Northwest Side courthouse.

1. Laughable.
I've had my head bounced off of CPD car hoods a couple times for just standing in the wrong place. Nothing will change.
