From [HERE] A second police officer has been fired in the wake of numerous allegations of police brutality against certain members of the North Chicago Police Department. William Bogdala, 33, an eight-year veteran of the force, was terminated effective June 29, according to City Attorney Chuck Smith, who said Bogdala will likely appeal through the Fraternal Order of Police grievance process. Six-year veteran Brandon Yost was fired in April for his role in the Nov. 6 arrest and police beating death of Darrin Hanna, which sparked a public outcry.

Hanna, 45, died Nov. 13, a week after he was arrested inside his apartment by six North Chicago police officers on a domestic battery charge.  He was beaten and repeatedly shocked with a stun gun by North Chicago police. In police recordings from the scene, an anguished Hanna can be heard pleading, “Put me down, please, I was down,” while an officer tells him, “You are OK ... relax.” Advocates have said the recordings show Hanna was cooperative, still conscious and understandable after being arrested, though he was barely conscious and unintelligible by the time he was carried out of his apartment on a stretcher.
