Lead Trial Attorney: Daniel Q. Herbert

An on-duty Chicago Police Officer was captured on videotape concealing a pint of milk underneath his bullet-proof vest and exiting the store without paying for the item. The Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department filed charges against the officer and sought his termination. A trial was held and the Officer was found NOT GUILTY of all charges and was reinstated with full back-pay and benefits. At trial we were able to demonstrate that the Officer did not have the "intent" required to be proven in the charges. 14 PB 2868 (2014)
