Chicago officials will not release the full probe completed by the city’s inspector general into how the Chicago Police Department investigated the 2016 murder of a 22-year-old man, denying a request made by his mother.
Shapearl Wells speaks to WTTW News near the site of her son’s murder in 2016.
Wells partnered with journalist Jamie Kalven and the Invisible Institute to create the podcast “Somebody,” a 2021 Pulitzer Prize finalist, that sought answers about both her son’s murder and the Police Department’s search for his killer.“It is an absurd denial that lacks human generosity,” Kalven said.
When the ambulance arrived at the hospital, Copeland was in handcuffs, according to reporting by the Invisible Institute. “The city remains committed to making our records available to the public to the fullest extent possible, consistent with all laws and regulations,” according to a statement from Kristen Cabanban, a spokesperson for the Law Department.
No member of the Chicago Police Department documented when and why Copeland was handcuffed. In addition, a sergeant violated department policy by failing to require the police officer “who placed the victim in handcuffs at some point prior to transport accompanied them in the ambulance to the hospital,” according to the summary of the inspector general’s report.
