Chicago Mayor Lightfoot under pressure to reform police amid outrage over Adam Toledo shooting
CNN
Lori Lightfoot pledged on the day she was inaugurated 23 months ago as Chicago's first Black female and first gay mayor that "reform is here."
But, amid outrage following last week's release of video of the police killing of 13-year-old Adam Toledo, the mayor faces a new round of questions about how Chicago Police Department policies and oversight will change -- and why she hasn't yet delivered on her promise. The city is in the midst of another weekend of protests over the actions of police, and Lightfoot is under pressure to back major reforms to a police department facing scrutiny over a series of controversial uses of violence.More Related News
