A Chicago police sergeant has accused the department of trying to cover up the circum- stances of a shooting in which another sergeant wounded an unarmed teen with disabilities during an off-duty incident on the Far South Side in 2017. Sgt. Isaac Lambert, a super- visor who was assigned to investigate the shooting, al- leges in a lawsuit that a boss dumped him from the detec- tive bureau last month just days after he refused to change a police report to list the other sergeant as the victim of the incident. At a news conference Mon- day at his lawyer’s Loop offices, Lambert, 50, a Chicago cop since 1994, said he wouldn’t be surprised if the lawsuit makes him an unpopular figure within the Police Department.

Lawsuits suggest AHAI has refused to give two clubs a membership By John Keilman Chicago Tribune

The organization that oversees youth hockey in Illinois is making the sport more expensive and less competitive than it is in other states by preventing new teams from forming, according to a pair of law- suits recently filed in federal court. Representatives of two aspiring clubs allege that the Amateur Hockey Asso- ciation of Illinois, or AHAI, has refused to give them a charter, a decision they say allows existing teams to charge a premium, pay some of their officials six- figure salaries and shut tal- ented children out of full participation. “It means the kids JOHN J.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING EDITORIAL CARTOON

According to the Chicago police, “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett staged a fake assault after writing himself a threatening letter because he was upset about his salary and was searching for fame. The complication with that hypothesis? Smol- lett’s compensation is actually sizable for his stand- ing. The actor-singer was pocketing $125,000 per episode of the Fox drama by its fifth season, Forbes estimates. That would be a 177 percent increase from the $45,000 an episode salary he is believed to have been earning when the show started in 2015 — a standard rate for an unknown, according to indus- try insiders. His paycheck increased as the series’ ratings swelled, putting Smollett’s pay at the top end of what a cast member of his stature would earn, sources say. A representative for Smollett declined to comment on his salary. ... Smollett’s per-episode paycheck remains around half as much as “Empire’s” biggest stars, Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard, make, Forbes esti- mates. But considering those two were famous before the show began, Smollett has not done badly by comparison. All told, he has likely earned some $7 million from his role playing the gay son of a record label mogul and occasionally directing the show, making it quite the cash cow.

(I can’t remember why.) I am fed up with the unbelievable atti- tudes and excuses that members of the 18-to-24-year-old group express in explaining their reasons for not voting in the recent municipal election. It’s bad enough that barely one- third of all voters bothered to show up for this election, but pathetically, just 3.5 percent of those younger than 25 were able to make it. Why? Because: It’s too hard to sort through the large group of candidates; too hard to find out where and when to vote; too cold; and too much trouble to do research on the candidates, among other reasons.

By Corilyn Shropshire Chicago Tribune

Instant Pot is everywhere — on kitchen counters, cooking shows and Instagram. Now Instant Brands, the maker of the multifunction cooking appli- ance, is merging with Rosemont- based Corelle Brands, bringing to- gether century-old products like Pyrex glass cookware with a prod- uct that has more than 185,000 people following its official Insta- gram account for recipes.

Bridge Both vulnerable, South deals North ♠ K543 Dick Tracy By Joe Staton and Mike Curtis ♥ J8 ♦ K75 ♣ A1053 West East ♠ 10 ♠ 9862 ♥ KQ9432 ♥ 7 ♦ QJ9632 ♦ A10 ♣ Void ♣ J98762 South ♠ AQJ7 ♥ A1065 ♦ 84 ♣ KQ4 This is another deal from the recent youth championship in Europe. South was young Belgian star Sam Bahbout. West got both of his suits into the auction, but he subsided when Animal Crackers By Mike Osbun the opponents powered into game and his partner showed no signs of life. Bahbout captured the opening heart lead with the ace and cashed the ace The bidding: of spades, noting the fall of the 10 from South West North East West. He led a heart 1NT 2♥ Dbl Pass to West’s queen, 2♠ 3♦ 4♠ All pass East discarding a Opening lead: King of ♥ low club, and West shifted to the queen of diamonds. East beat dummy’s king with the ace and continued diamonds. West overtook East’s 10 with his jack and led a heart, hoping his partner could score a ruff. Bahbout ruffed with dummy’s king of spades and led Prickly City By Scott Stantis a low spade, East playing low. What should Bahbout play from his hand? Had West’s earlier play of the spade 10 been a singleton or was it from 10-nine doubleton. Perhaps from some other holding that wasn’t a singleton? West had advertised a distributional hand in the auction, and Bahbout decided to play for the 10 of spades to have been an honest card. He inserted his seven of spades and brought home his touch-and-go contract. Well done! Had East split his nine-eight of spades, Bahbout would have won with his queen and crossed back to dummy with the ace of clubs to take the now proven finesse against East’s nine of spades.
