The mayor of Chicago did not attend the funeral of fallen police officer Luis Huesca, 30, who was killed while off-duty last month. Reports indicate that the family of the deceased had expressed that the mayor was not welcome at the funeral.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson was initially scheduled to attend the funeral but later updated his schedule to show that he would not be present at the event. Family members of Officer Huesca reportedly informed the mayor's office that he was not welcome at the funeral, with Illinois Comptroller Susana Mendoza confirming that the family had requested the mayor not attend.
