Chicago Cop Arrested for Murder
by TChris
Edward Leak Jr., a Chicago police officer, has been charged with contracting for the murder of Fred Hamilton, who told Internal Affairs that Leak was stealing money from Leak's family's funeral home, where Hamilton worked as a driver. The police responded to the report by obtaining a warrant for Hamilton's arrest on a charge of extortion. Before Hamilton could be arrested, Leak took out a $500,000 insurance policy on Hamilton's life, and Hamilton was killed. One of the people arrested for the shooting says he was hired by Leak.
