Are you talking about the cop split out after coming back to to pick up his wife? The one from Skokie? The chief in Elk Grove filled me in on the backstory many moons ago.
In addition to what you just said, LLDM, it is probably a good time to point out that “investigative reporting” has a down side as well. In the rush to get the scoop on a new story, or get the most “in depth” information, hyperbole gets the headlines, and accuracy is definitlely in the grey area…especially during the sweeps.
Not everyone is a fan of reporter Chuck Goudie…here a few excerpts from the pages of bloggers and such…
Chuck Goudie of Channel 7 Eyewitness News (the Chicago ABC affiliate) was tracking the killer Andrew Cunanan a few years ago, and located the flophouse room the guy had been renting. Instead of calling the police, he started rifling through things, drawers and such, possibly disturbing evidence. His latest bit of sweeps-related stupidity came in May 2001, when he went to Las Vegas to cover the story of an 11-year-old Indiana girl who ran away with her 28-year-old school principal. After the pair had been found, Goudie weaseled his way into the motel room the pair had last rented. The police had gone over it and the motel had cleaned it. But Goudie found a condom wrapper in the garbage can, and almost went nuts on the air, proclaiming loudly on camera that somehow the police had missed this “key evidence” while sweeping the premises. It turns out the pair had never even entered the room. It also turns out that the principal had in fact been having relations with the girl, and Goudie made sure to turn up the volume on the sleazier side of the story. Also, while the Chicago Tribune and other newspapers finally stopped printing the girl’s name and picture (having done so originally only to possibly help in locating her) in order to avoid any further invasions of privacy, Goudie’s station and others continued plastering the poor girl’s face on the screen.

And then there are the lawsuits for libel due to disagreement of the facts Goudie has reported…
And finally there is the whole issue of deliberate leaks, and who gets them and how accurate they are…
At one point, Channel 7’s Chuck Goudie appeared to put out inaccurate information he had gathered regarding the investigation of Lead 80. Zuley, who knew Goudie from contact in Chicago, offered to call Goudie to straighten out the facts. He was roundly told to keep out of it.
From the beginning, key members of the command had chosen favorites among the press corps to leak information to. Jay Levine was consistently stroked by the Task Force and was also liked by Bratcher”"they had other favorites too. Goudie was not one of the chosen. Goudie had taken a very hard line toward the Task Force and was therefore widely detested by the command. One witness close to the Task Force told us, “they hated Goudie and posted his picture up on the wall next to the mug shots of wanted criminals.”
Zuley’s attempts to provide Goudie with correct information were heavily criticized by management members of the Task Force, and Chief Bratcher maintains that Zuley was in fact fired from the Task Force for leaking to the press. Information on lead 80 did not reach the media, however, until September of 1993. Zuley had left the Task Force in February of that year.

My Dad has no record at all. If he was involved in this why was he not arrested? Please it is most important I feel that no more LIES are said about my Father! You have no idea what has gone on behind close door to put together all these LIES. So the media, Joe and the Feds have had their turn. Please let the TRUTH be out there now. I have researched this for 8 months. So about the current investigation I feel I have room to talk.The Feds already have your information! PLEASE GIVE THE REST OF THE STORY A CHANCE!!!
Anyone notice how much is NOT being heard from the Chicago crowd? Especially those old enough to have lived/ridden during all of those wonderful times? Unfortunately, I am in that category.
Snowbird - Goldy’s “dad” is not some some small time cop, rather large suburb of Chicago. As far as I know he has never been charged with anything, but he sure was around ALOT.
Winning Jayne is Si’s nephew.
Also you are on the money with Feds offering to keep Joe out of jail also. Along with $$$$ and Maybe Joe thought of his bonus of making big bucks on solving the Helen Brach Murder,having immunity!! I really would of never imagined the day would come in our Great Country that a man could get on national TV and say I shot a rich woman 2 times in the head and be a free man and he makes alot of money doing it!!! I said before with the Patriot Act and the Feds now attempting to get supena power with no checks and balances we are heading toward Nazi Germany it may take awhile but if we were to have a deep economic depression some years in the future guess who might take over? The men above the law (FEDS). Nixon lied and look what happened to him. Why should the Feds be above are President!!!
3rd, yes, fourth, no

THIS IS THE TRUE JOY IN LIFE the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one, the being a force of nature instead of a feverish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community, and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It is sort of splendid torch which I’ve got to hold up for the moment. I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations. George Benard Shaw I have never had a mission like this in my life. I am not sure why it has fallen in my lap. I will not stand by and watch innocent peoples lives turn into a nightmare. It boggles my mind that so many lies have been created in this investigation in such a short time. Each one of you can make a big difference! </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
This is some amazing reading. Thanks Goldylox and others

Hello kettle, this is pot. (and yes, I am stealing that one from Friends)
I don’t think a person that has barely posted & then basically only on 1 thread is in any position to be yelling “troll” at other new posters. If we have listened to you for 24 pages, then I think it’s fair to listen to other’s too.

Cindeye - God, you make me laugh! Thanks!
But what I can’t understand is, why, after watching all those movies that you don’t know that “goldy” is really Oliver Stone!
You’ll have cut and paste whatever the link is … I don’t want to register with the Chicago Tribune.
So goldy seems to have “dropped out” for a while, I see.
He may not be posting, but he’s reading …
Bwf my Father has never been charged with this crime!But my Father hes been blasted on TV and the computer for 8 months!
I love Monet. Thanks for reminding me
Any bets on this going to 40 pages??
Uh, hello …
Have you checked CNN or FOX lately?
There are other things going on out there.
