Hanrahan denies conspiracy charges in Panther case
Chicago action centers on State's Atty. Edward Hanrahan denied guilt amid a special Cook County grand jury indictment charging conspiracy to obstruct prosecution in the Hampton Clark raid. Daley called for evidence while noting no arrest warrants were issued. The long investigation names Hanrahan Jalovee and eight patrolmen plus four investigators, with charges stemming from alleged false information and a televised reenactment. The case raises potential penalties for obstruction of justice and misdeeds tied to the 1969 raid that left Hampton and Clark dead.
