The petition campaign was created by Frnak Chapman, a political and human rights activist.
TO: UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
To investigate, charge and prosecute Mayor Rahm Enmanuel and those involved in covering up the murder of Laquan McDonald.
Why is this important?
On Tuesday November 25, 2015 the video tape recording of the murder of 17 year old Laquan McDonald was released to the public. It is clear from viewing the police video that the police lied about Laquan McDonald’s murder. Yet Prosecuting Attorney Anita Alvarez, the Independent Police Review Authority and Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department set on this video for 13 months knowing that a murder had been committed. They violated the law. The Department of Justice the DOJ needs to step up and hold all those who covered up the murder of Laquan McDonald accountable. :Laquan McDonald’s murder was a clear violation of his federally protected constitutional rights as a citizen. We demand that the DOJ take action.
