Brickbat: Slaps on the Wrist

The Chicago Police Department confirms two officers are back on the street after serving brief suspensions for beating a prisoner in his cell. Video appeared to show Jerold Williams striking the prisoner with his fists while Delgado Fernandez held the man down. Williams received a 15-day suspension and Fernandez got a 10-day suspension. The victim, Damien Stewart, filed a civil suit against the police department and received a $45,000 settlement.

The linked article fails to state whether the suspensions were paid or unpaid.
Most entry level professionals get jobs with two weeks paid suspension by default, but applicants with good resumes in desirable fields can often negotiate for more.
I do not know the answer. But I am willing to bet that as soon as two black jailers brutally club and slug a black inmate, a way will suddenly be found to make an example of THEM. That is the pattern that is evidently emerging. Tyre Nichols' precedent is weakening the qualified immunity that almost rewarded the killer of George Floyd. Stare decisis and which faction's seats may be lost to reaction--THOSE matter.
What color was everyone’s skin?

Blue city problems.
To be fair, this happened in the capital of the culture war victors and did not involved someone being killed so they count it as a win.
See? Democratic Christianizing of the heathen moved from the Dem to the GOP faction in 1928. That collectivism encouraged Christian National Socialism's spread across Europe. The very prohibitionist fanaticism that simultaneously wrecked the US and global economy boosted communist membership Stateside 700%. Communist enslavement of Europe then caused the US to forgive Nazi corporations and moguls with a slap on the wrist. That taught 'em. This beating will be shrugged off like the 12APR1873 Colfax massacre.
Hank, drinking and posting isn't good for you.
On what basis were these two men not charged with a crime? If any of us did that, we would be.
Qualified immunity.
That only applies to civil suits.
Be reasonable. If they fired every cop who beat a prisoner, they’d have no cops.
Is that what you want?
You know who else didn’t want uniformed thugs fired for beating prisoners?
