Sen. Durbin Cuts Off Witness During Chicago-Specific Violence Hearing for Talking About Chicago-Specific Violence

EXCERPT:

DURBIN: "Ms. Swearer, I read your testimony. And I believe in all fairness, since we did not invite the Cook County State's Attorney's Office to be represented here today, that you shouldn't really zero in on any particular individual. If you want to speak to trends, that's certainly your right, but because that decision was made by the committee more at the federal level, I hope you'll respect that."
