Chicago's Top Cop Resigns Amid Videtaped Beating Scandal
Chicago Police Superintendant Philip Cline has announced his resignation amid the growing scandal of videotaped police beatings of suspects.
Cline has been under fire recently stemming from the conduct of Officer Anthony Abbate and other unnamed officers who are accused of beating citizens in separate barroom incidents caught on video.
....As the world was getting its first look at the grainy, graphic video of the burly Abbate pummeling bartender Karolina Obrycka, records that were made public showed that the Police Department had quietly filed misdemeanor charges against the officer a week earlier.
