The Chicago Police Department has delivered 80 pages of letters to U.S. District Judge Robert Gettleman seeking the maximum sentence — five years — for the so-called straw purchaser of the gun that was used last year to kill Officer Ella French and seriously wound her partner.
Federal prosecutors also recently asked Gettleman to give Jamel Danzy five years after he pleaded guilty this summer to a conspiracy to commit federal firearm offenses. He is set to be sentenced Wednesday.
