A Cook County judge on Monday tossed out convictions against 10 men who went to prison based on arrests made by former Chicago Police Sgt. Ronald Watts, and defense attorneys say another four men will have their dubious convictions wiped off their records this week.
The “mass exoneration” is only the latest batch of convictions tied to Watts and members of his corrupt tactical unit that were thrown out by State’s Attorney Kim Foxx in a little over a year. This brings the total number of defendants who were charged with crimes in cases tainted by Watts to 63, said Sean Starr, an attorney for the Exoneration Project at the University of Chicago Law School.
