Topic: Laquan Mcdonald

The release of the dashcam video showing the shooting of Laquan McDonald by officer Jason Van Dyke is scrutinized for its political timing. The hosts suggest Mayor Rahm Emanuel delayed the video's release to protect his re-election. A news clip regarding the gang-related death of nine-year-old Tyshawn Lee is also analyzed for a verbal gaffe regarding police involvement.

The Chicago City Council agreed to a $5 million settlement for the family of Laquan McDonald, a 17-year-old shot 16 times by police while reportedly walking away. Mayor Rahm Emanuel is also backing a $5.5 million reparations fund for victims of police torture under former Commander John Burge, including free college tuition and a formal apology.
