Rep. García’s Statement on Reports of Chicago Police Officers Engaging in Illegal Sexual Conduct With Migrants

CHICAGO — Today, Congressman Jesús “Chuy” García (IL-04) released the following statement on allegations of Chicago police officers engaging in sexual conduct with migrants: 

“Our migrant neighbors came to Chicago seeking safety and stability. Police officers are sworn to protect our communities, not engage in illegal sexual conduct with teenagers and others in their care. This alleged behavior is completely unacceptable. I expect the city’s investigation to be timely, thorough, transparent, and lead to accountability for all who are found guilty. ”
