Scandal Falling Apart

As a result, it appears more and more like J-Fed was brought here under false pretenses. The Department as a whole was never "out of control" and much of the alleged wrongdoing seems to be a media driven creation:

• Very quietly, the Chicago Police Department has given badges back to three police officers who had been caught up in the Special Operations Section scandal and relegated to desk jobs as part of the ongoing investigations into wrongdoing, department officials confirmed today.
  
  
  With police powers restored, Greg Insley, Dave Case and Paul Zogg can return to the street and real police work, department officials said. For Case, reinstatement brought a promotion, from sergeant to lieutenant. The officers could not be reached for comment, or declined to comment publicly about their reinstatements.

And word is trickling in that a fourth Officer who was cleared in court, received his gun back and is again on the payroll. How many more will be cleared before it's all over? Aside from two people, this is starting to look like another politically motivated clusterfuck and not entire teams out of control.
