There has been a long-running scary report about how the Chicago police department has been operating a clandestine off-the-books interrogation compound where they take Americans, hold them there with no lawyers or rights, and just threaten you without any oversight. Americans who have been snatched up by the Chicago police are unable to be found by family or attorneys. Even lawyers are coming forward saying that this is the domestic equivalent of a CIA black site. Of course, it takes a British newspaper to report the story as was the case with Snowden.
This is the problem with our legal system. They get to do whatever they desire and it is our burden to argue it violates the Constitution. It should be the other way around.
