This isn't criminal justice, it's justice for criminals: Gianno Caldwell Video

Caldwell, whose teenage brother was shot and killed in Chicago, discussed the SAFE-T Act's passage with a former prosecutor and state Republican leader.

This isn't about Democrat or Republican anymore. It's about humanity and things need to change in Cook County.
