Remember that this is 2015 and not 1915…
No doubt. And now that it’s been brought to light, I hope Mayor Emanuel and/or Attorney General Holder will be trying to do something about it. The alleged civil rights abuses are right down his alley.
Overall, this is certainly a tragically interesting article. It is especially interesting, though, that reporter Spencer Ackerman apparently did not directly contact and/or seek comment from the Mayor Emanuel’s office about the facility. In fact, the only mention of Mayor Emanuel’s name is in reference to a family member, Sarah Gelsomino, trying to locate Jacob Church. Furthermore, the quote below, containing that mention of Mayor Emanuel, seems to imply a level of complicity on his part.
Only after (Sarah Gelsomino) and others made a ‘major stink’ with contacts in the offices of the corporation counsel and Mayor Rahm Emanuel did they even learn about Homan Square.
