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.
Turn to the next page to see how Battle managed to win re-election:
Chicago corruption!
How do you get better by moving in the same direction ..NOT
Why does it not surprise me in Chicago? All of America knows it a thug city!
Another one of Obama’s pawns
Didn’t Hilary say we should not look at a President’s criminal record? That goes for all liberal politicians apparently.
Imagine that…
If you read it all he didn’t get elected, he won because he had no one to challenge him. They figured they would be next on his murder hit list.. Maybe if they get him in jail and he cannot be mayor someone else will run.
Low information voters / non readers – great education system……
City of idiots
Shows you anything is possible in gun free Chicago!!!
