The Chicago Police Department has launched an investigation into an unspecified number of officers over their alleged sexual relations with migrants.
This comes after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott transported about 2,200 migrants to Chicago after they crossed the border from Mexico into his state. In total, Abbott has sent over 23,000 migrants to New York City and Washington, D.C., as well.“These allegations are under investigation with CPD’s Bureau of Internal Affairs and the Civilian Office of Police Accountability,” CPD said in a statement.
"While this incident is under investigation by the CPD Bureau of Internal Affairs and the Civilian Office of Police Accountability, the City is committed to providing mental health support and resources to all those in need," Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson tweeted Friday."The administration is also in the process of relocating all new arrivals from District 10 today in accordance with its ongoing strategy of moving asylum seekers out of all Chicago police stations.
Meanwhile, Fraternal Order of Police Chicago Lodge No. 7 President John J. Catanzara Jr. said the allegations were"nonsense."
