In Chicago, Mayor Rahm Emanuel is facing increasing questioning over whether he will resign amid the scandal over the police killing of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald more than a year ago. McDonald was shot 16 times by white police officer Jason Van Dyke. Chicago authorities withheld the police dash cam video of the fatal shooting and only released it last week under a court order. Officer Van Dyke was indicted on murder charges the same day. The video clearly contradicts police claims about the shooting, instead showing the teenager posing no threat and walking away from the officers at a distance as Officer Van Dyke jumps out of his police car and opens fire. On Tuesday, Emanuel fired Chicago Police Chief Garry McCarthy. But allegations about a potential cover-up have continued to plague Emanuel, as he faces questioning about a preemptive $5 million settlement with Laquan McDonald’s family during the mayor’s re-election campaign. On Wednesday, Mayor Emanuel maintained he would not resign.
