According to CPD, Officer Robert Bakker is serving a 120 day suspension after an IG report revealed he lied about contact with the Proud Boys.
"Most of our community members don't want to talk to the police because they don't trust the police and this is a prime example," said Betha Burnell of Mothers on a Mission.
"If this is true that there are connections to these organizations that will once again push that trust back and make it very difficult for good policing," said Pastor Tim Hoekstra, Suburban Life Community Church. Southern Poverty Law Center sent a letter to Mayor Lori Lightfoot and CPD Superintendent David Brown, saying in part, "We also believe Bakker should have been fired for his active participation in extremist activities - and then lying about it."
