PAUSE the vid and let it LOAD fully so you get a proper, HD kinda PICTURE. If you already KNOW THAT, disregard and forgive me being a FUCKKTARD.

This is really good stuff. Doing the math in my head, I may have helped put Cornbread away! I interned a year at CCSA, summer 91. I wonder which courtroom he was is in. I did Mary Maxwell Thomas (not a bad judge, she gave a shit). Sharp SAs and PDs. My first day put a white boy away for 20 for selling a kilo out of his cop dad's basement. (I didn't do shit, I didn't know shit.) Part of the Joyce crew in Beverly.

Cockroaches falling from the ceiling lmao! I know a nurse who said the same thing about the night shift at Cook County Hospital (now Stroger) in the 60s. One time she wrote in the day book that someone needed to do something about them, but the next night she saw someone had responded to her note, “Leave’em alone! They were here before you.”
