Note that this op-ed is from last year and the report it discusses came out almost a full year ago, in April 2016.
The link to the 190-page report on the NYT site is broken; it can be found here: https://chicagopatf.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/PATF_Final_Report_4_13_16-1.pdf https://chicagopatf.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/PATF_Fina...
What's incredible is that a report of this length on the abuses of the CPD does not even mention Homan Square, the CPD's "black site" where over 7,000 people were detailed without access to a lawyer over the course of a decade and many were tortured into making a confession.
The Guardian reported on Homan Square in 2015: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/oct/19/homan-square-chicago-police-disappeared-thousands https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/oct/19/homan-square...
