The Guardian: Chicago Police Department Operates Like A "Black Site"


Criminal defense lawyers accuse the Chicago Police Department of operating a "black site." "
Alleged police practices at Homan Square, according to those familiar with the facility who spoke out to the Guardian after its investigation into Chicago police abuse, include:
--Keeping arrestees out of official booking databases.
--Beating by police, resulting in head wounds.
--Shackling for prolonged periods.
--Denying attorneys access to the 'secure' facility.
--Holding people without legal counsel for between 12 and 24 hours, including people as young as 15."Spencer Ackerman in The Guardian
