Commentary: Welcome to Cook County, where the very system designed to stop violence actually contributes to the bloodshed.
” series, for decades, our justice system has neglected its most basic function: fairly administering justice.The time it takes Cook County courts to complete most murder cases is now a staggering four years. That is about twice as long as the county’s own internal goal and four times as long as what advocates say the benchmark should be. The delays are worse than in any other large court system that experts have studied. This has been a known problem here since at least the 1960s.
