How they died
Deadly force
A contentious two-year investigation of the death of janitor Lopez at the hands of five Chicago officers included the fact that 11 of the 16 shots fired at him came from an off-duty cop who had been drinking, that the police narrative about an officer being dragged under Lopez's Honda was a fabrication, and that the tire-track evidence on the officer's pants were phony. The shooting was found justified anyway.
