“A 2009 police report detailing an accusation of domestic violence involving City Councilman Greg Brockhouse cannot be found... The public deserves to know how this record came to not exist. Was this expunged correctly? And if it was not, what were the circumstances?”
“It was easy for Brockhouse to apologize about Chick-fil-A because he was in effect shaming others. Who knew it would be so easy for him to avoid answering questions about his past.”
“Police records show officers have twice responded to allegations of domestic violence over the last 13 years involving mayoral candidate Greg Brockhouse.”
“Annalisa told police she was arguing with Brockhouse that night at their home on the far West Side because ‘he had recently lost his job and had been drinking a lot,’ the report said.”
“...how can Brockhouse, who has prided himself as a champion of transparency, be so opaque about his own personal life? He can’t remember something that warranted a police response? The city he wants to represent deserves a better explanation, just as the issue of family violence deserves deeper reflection.”
