but didn’t immediately serve it because the probe was later reopened at the request of the city inspector general’s office.The posts on 4chan began on Aug. 3 when the purported officer started a thread soliciting questions and including a photo of a shirt with a police patch. In the thread, the user spouted slurs for Mexicans and gay men and blamed the city’s violent crime solely on Black people.
The person also claimed to have voted for Trump three times in the 2020 election because “Chicago has a relaxed voting system.” The user appeared to advocate for armed insurrection, noting that American cities “are not worth fighting for.”The user started a new thread on Tuesday asking for more questions, this time including the photo of an obscured police ID and a gay slur in the title. Asked about racial profiling, the person offered a jarring response: “I don’t pull over anyone white.
Later in the thread, the user cited an interracial kiss as “the most serious crime” they overlooked while on the job, using the n-word in the response. Many of the grievances aired by the purported officer are familiar. The user claimed to have pulled back on his police work, decried the department’s foot and vehicle pursuit policies, and railed against Mayor Lori Lightfoot and Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx.
“I hope the department knows I am posting here,” the user wrote. “You can tell mayor … she is an abomination and the destroyer of a world [class] town.”
