Unfairness pervades justice system

Posted December 24, 2010 11:00 am

I am writing in regards to the corrupt politics that are being used in the Cook County Court system, particularly the Rolling Meadows branch. There are cases that are being unfairly prosecuted and judged. Some situations include a particular judge who shows preferential treatment toward women versus men. The are situations that include confessions that are being coerced by denying life-sustaining and functioning medications, statements that are being used that are unwritten, unsigned, not video and not audio recorded. False accusations have become the central focus of destroying people's lives.

The money of the Illinois citizen is being sucked dry to cover court costs for false claims. The justice system is unjust and the citizens of the state of Illinois and Cook County deserve a system that is fair and balanced immediately before more innocent people go to jail.
