I suppose we ought to be glad the convictions were reversed. Better if they never happened. —————
A dozen people who had collectively served 30 years in prison had their drug convictions vacated Tuesday, marking nearly 100 overturned convictions tied to a disgraced Chicago cop.
The exonerations are the most recent in the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office ongoing review of the misconduct of corrupt former Chicago Police Sgt. Ronald Watts, who extorted residents and drug dealers at the Ida B. Wells housing project on the city's South Side over the course of a decade.
Since she took office in 2016, Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx has vacated 94 convictions involving Watts
