The Onion: Chicago Police Department To Monitor All Interactions With Public Using New Bullet Cams

CHICAGO—In response to calls for increased transparency and accountability, the Chicago Police Department announced Friday that it will begin monitoring all interactions with the public by using new bullet cams. “To ensure that all contact between law enforcement officers and residents is properly documented, five megapixel, high-definition cameras will be affixed to our standard-grade 9mm Luger caliber ammunition,” said Chicago Police Department Interim Superintendent John Escalante, adding that the bullet cams will capture the majority of public interactions and store them in a database. “We’ve invested heavily to modernize our police force and hope that the initiative will eliminate any misunderstandings between citizens and law enforcement.” When asked whether the public would have access to the footage, a Chicago police spokesperson had no comment.

Word is Donald Trump captured him! Fugitive Mexican drug lord Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman nabbed after deadly shootout, 6 months on the run

Fugitive Mexican drug kingpin Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman has been captured six months after a daring prison escape last July through a mile-long tunnel, Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto announced Friday on his Twitter account. A federal law enforcement source at the DEA confirmed the capture to Fox News, saying it is "a great day for the good guys."

Fox News is told the U.S. will request that Chapo be extradited to the U.S. to face federal charges.

Guzman was apprehended after a shootout with Mexican marines in the city of Los Mochis, in his home state of Sinaloa, an official told The Associated Press. Marines reportedly seized two armored vehicles, eight rifles, one handgun and a rocket-propelled grenade launcher.

Judges toss rape conviction of Nsoni Mpulamasaka, a native of Zambia living in Waukegan, accuse Lake County prosecutors of misconduct

If you were from Africa and you are charged with RAPING A WOMAN in America, would you be grinning from ear to ear in your mugshot photo?

Appeals judges have reversed the conviction of a man accused of raping a woman in Highland Park and ruled that Lake County prosecutors committed misconduct by making improper remarks at the end of the trial.

The judges wrote that prosecutors did not adequately prove the guilt of Nsoni Mpulamasaka, a native of Zambia living in Waukegan before he was charged with raping a learning-disabled Evanston woman, 41, in her vehicle outside a Denny's restaurant in 2011. His attorneys argued at trial in 2013 that the encounter was a consensual tryst between two married people, and the judges wrote in a decision filed Wednesday that the evidence of rape was "improbable and unsatisfactory."

Mpulamasaka, now 30, was sentenced to 12 years in prison, and he remained held Friday at Hill Correctional Center in Galesburg in western Illinois, prison records show. Prosecutors could challenge the ruling, and Mpulamasaka's attorney at trial, Jed Stone, said he did not expect him to be released immediately.

Lake County State's Attorney Mike Nerheim said he disagreed with the case's reversal, and he and his deputies would consider whether to fight the decision.

Stone said he was pleased that the appeals judges used the ruling to criticize prosecutors' conduct.

"It's a good day for all defendants," Stone said.

In finding misconduct, the judges wrote that prosecutors improperly emphasized the alleged victim's learning disability and suggested she'd been unwittingly led during cross-examination toward answers calling the defendant's guilt into question. The judges called out Assistant State's Attorney Reginald Mathews for sitting at the witness stand as he extolled the alleged victim's courage and impugned the credibility of Mpulamasaka, who did not testify in his own defense. The judges wrote that jurors might have acquitted Mpulamasaka if it weren't for prosecutor's "improper remarks."
