Chicago Detective: Arturo Deleon-Reyes and Gabriel Solache

chicago detective: This time they're awaiting deportation proceedings from Immigration and Customs Enforcement because they entered the country illegally, according to Metro News. They are among several defendants who have walked free because their cases were handled by Reynaldo Guevara, a discredited former Chicago detective facing allegations that for years he beat and bullied defendants to obtain false attorney said he's not sure he even made it past the fence outside the jail. Gabriel Solache and Arturo DeLeon-Reyes, who were freed in December, were immediately detained again. But I do know he did see the sun shine without handcuffs on and could see a park and all of those were a first for him in a really long time, said Andrew Vail, a Jenner and Block attorney who worked on the case for free. The allegations of Guevara's brutality last year led to five overturned convictions. DeLeon-Reyes and Solache's release adds a chapter to what has become one of the most troubling stories of the Chicago Police Department in recent history. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
