Chicago, IL – A local jewelry store owner said she has been “horribly defamed” by law enforcement officers and “Trump supporters” who want to put her out of business, after she criticized the funeral of slain Chicago Police Commander Paul Bauer in a social media post on Friday.

“This funeral seems overkill to show respect to a member of the biggest gang in the city...chicago police,” Sherri Bourdage, owner of Bourdage Pearls wrote on her private Facebook page. “I look at all the money they are spending on this funeral while ignoring suffering kids.”

“They literally take the funding away from kids after school programs including music and sports,” Bourdage wrote. “Cps pays cpd 30 million a year for police protection at schools. If they have something to do after school, they wont get into trouble on the streets while parents at work.”

Commander Bauer, a 31-year veteran of the Chicago Police Department (CPD), was murdered in the line of duty on Feb. 13, when he was shot during a confrontation in a stairwell of the state of Illinois government building.

It was a few years ago that a Lame Duck Illinois Legislature raised taxes, legalized gay marriage and abolished the death penalty.

It is time to reinstate capital punishment for the murder of a peace officer or correctional officer and for those convicted of multiple murders.
