(MSNBC) Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy was fired Tuesday, exactly one week after dash-cam video showing the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald was released.
The announcement came during an 11 a.m. press conference announcing Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s new task force on police accountability. Emanuel has said the task force was created in an effort to “strengthen the fabric of trust between the Chicago Police Department and the communities it protects.”
Emanuel and McCarthy have faced mounting criticism over the handling of the Laquan McDonald case, with many citing the 13 months it took to charge the officer involved and others questioning McCarthy’s leadership and credibility.
