A Chicago police officer avoided jail time today for pummeling a woman who was tending bar, even though prosecutors produced a previously unseen video showing him beating someone else at the bar hours earlier.
Anthony Abbate was sentenced to two years probation for beating Karolina Obrycka in February of 2007. He could have gotten up to five years for the attack, which was captured by the bar's security camera and shown around the world.

What a fat, disgusting, bully ... savage PIG! The sentence is an outrage. Judge John Fleming ... your name will go down in infamy.
~~Chicago way ..........!
I hope she sues him so hard he wishes he was in prison.
“If I believed that sending Anthony Abbate to prison would stop people from getting drunk and hitting other people, I’d sentence him to the maximum,” Judge John Fleming said. “But I don’t believe that is the case.”
What a stupid a** judge. What better way to deter crimes such as this than send this corrupt idiot away behind bars. Where is justice? More Chicago way politics in the judicial system.
Judge John Fleming. Remember the name.
Sad and pathetic.
Obama Chicago Machine Basij thug.
No wonder Obama is orgasmic over the criminals who run Iran.
How is Obama’s Chicago Machine fundamentally different?
YEP. Incredible; not serious enough??

Ditto! I hope every dime he's allowed to make for the next 10 years has to go to her! What a piece of filthy slime.
All part of the Obambi legacy...
this was mayor Daleys crack fascist police force...I am sure His Royal Highness 0bama agrees with the decision, after all he did not beat up ACORN workers.
With one or maybe two rare exceptions, pigs is pigs.
Be they LEOs or thugs in black robes, they all slop from the same trough so they all watch each others backs.
Nothing but filth.
I really am not surprised. They protect each other. This is such a clear cut case of assault. No one should be able to walk away from this crime without doing some jail time.
“Chicago way ..........!”
Doubtless.
Sarah Palin needs only to flip 10% or so of the women’s vote to be a serious contender in 2012. If I were her, I’d give Obummer a day or two to respond, and if he didn’t, I’d loudly ask why this was business as usual in his home town.
Yeah, right. Double standard BS. If any of us had done that, they'd lock us away and lose the key.
You can see in her eyes her feelings over justice denied.
It would deter him from beating up women, at least while he was in jail. It probably wouldn't deter drunken Chicago cops from beating people in bars and getting away with it.
He noted that Abbate had no prior criminal history
If you don't count the guy he beat earlier......and the other incidents that probably got covered up because there was no video.
Abbate had faced several charges, including intimidation, conspiracy and communicating with a witness and official misconduct.
A fine upstanding young man.
The police department is seeking to have Abbate fired,
Gotta love unions.
No matter how tough you are or think you are, there is always someone tougher.
Without the badge and gun he will get his, sooner than you think, bully’s never learn.
..Judge John Fleming....etc
(Maybe) Coming to a Supreme Court near you...that oughta empty the jails...
“Not just Chicago. Cops in America can get away with anything. One of main the reasons they are so corrupt and violent.”
That’s bullshit...the crap they have to deal with every day, the murderers thugs and thieves, the ACLU and being hated by the thugs that are always hiding behind bullshit aggressive lawyers looking for an easy buck...God bless them, every oone...the percentage of stories you like this is so small in the number of inceidents they handle each day, it can hardly be measured...
Today’s pansy cop: if he isn’t beating someone for nothing he’s tazing your aging mother.
Sickening!
It's enough to make you want to get drunk and start hitting a bartender.....
Soon he will wakeup and ask, where am I, why does my face hurt so bad and where are my underpants?
Now that the po-lice department is on record
as being aware of the officer’s tendencies
the po-lice department lawyer-ers
will insist that he be removed from the po-lice department
lest any future displays of his, now documented, tendencies
put the po-lice department in jeopardy of legal action.
Not buyin’ your broadbrush statement ... at all.
“It’s enough to make you want to get drunk and start hitting a bartender.....”
Nah, it’s enough to make me want to puke...every time some innocent person gets jacked up by the cops...but it’s like plane crashes...you only hear about the catastrophes, not the million successes...
Amen!
The judge probably got some “friendly suggestions” over the phone, in his mail box, in his daughter’s mail box, on her car window, etc......
He's one catastrophe doing no jail time who still (for now at least) has his job.
There are bad apples in EVERY bunch. The bad apples deserve to be picked out and thrown away. This guy was obviously a bad apple, but you can't paint everyone with the same brush.
you only hear about the catastrophes, not the million successes...
“He’s one catastrophe doing no jail time who still (for now at least) has his job.”
Yeah, life isn’t fair...there’s a whole shitload of little kids growing up without Dads because some lamebrain with his pants down around his ass thought he would kill himself a cop, too...life ain’t fair...
Had it been my wife the fat POS would be looking over his shoulder every second of the day. There is no reason to excuse this.
>> “It was terrifying to be attacked by such a big man,” Obrycka told Fleming. “I tried to protect myself, but I was helpless.”
In most states, this poor woman would have a way to protect herself. But not in Illinois. Thanks a lot, TV Jessee Jackson and your corrupt buddies.
Those interested in this case and curious about the Chicago police rank and file reaction to this incident can go here:
“And any civilians or media types looking to start shit, just about every single reader here deplored Abbate’s actions and called for his firing. We also uncovered numerous instances where Abbate should have been fired before or never even hired. It was the political structure that permitted this aberration to occur, not the men and women who serve and protect honorably day in and day out.

This is an outrage.
“Nonsense. This is an example of the 99% giving the other 1% a bad name.”
OK. I can tell when I’m wasting my time. 99% giving the other 1% a bad name? You got your numbers right, they’re just backwards.
I think that some police forces tolerate this sort of misconduct more than others. The cops here in Utah in my experience have been entirely professional and we don’t get many stories about out of control cops. When we do they are often fired. LA on the other hand has a real problem with rogue cops and falsifying evidence. Every city differs.
It’s difficult for cops to speak out because they never know who will be backing them up in tough situations. Serpico comes to mind.

Nah, it’s enough to make me want to puke...every time some innocent person gets jacked up by the cops...but it’s like plane crashes...you only hear about the catastrophes, not the million successes...sorry you don’t get that...maybe you will some day...
Who lied for him ?
The police chief wants him fired .... he better be.
Thanks ...
“Under cross-examination, Abbate testified that he knew Obrycka had told him earlier not to go behind the bar but that he didn’t care what she said even though he knew he could simply have walked to his friend without going behind the bar.
Abbate, who is listed at 6 foot 1 inches tall and admitted he may have weighed more than 250 pounds at the time of the incident, said he was drunk at the time and felt threatened by Obrycka, who is 5 foot 3 inches tall and weighs 125 pounds.”

Some kind of “man.”
so can she sue in civil court? and make his life a financial hell?
“the general MO of police in these situations”.............?
Yeah .. ok. I’ve got your drift.
I’ll get it when assholes like this, who do things like this, get jail time.
