You would think that being arrested for drug possession and being the primary suspect in a murder case would torpedo anybody’s chances of holding public office, much less getting re-elected, but this was not the case for Robert “Coop” Battle, an East Chicago 3rd District Councilman.
Already under scrutiny by the police for a traffic stop earlier this year in which he was found to be carrying 73 pounds of marijuana and more than $100,000 in his car, Battle finds himself under investigation for the October 12th shooting death of Reimundo Camarillo Jr, with police believing him to be the culprit.

Obama’s home town.
Those peope are either stupid or its the ells obummer brough in
Drugs I see, the way politicians vote, if it isn’t hard drugs, it is high treason. The murder charge on the other hand is the part that shows how hopeless Chicago truly is.
This is supposed to be illegal, but then HOW MUCH IS LEGAL, anymore?
Low life !!
