Killer Sentenced
- A man convicted of killing an off-duty Chicago police officer in a botched scheme to steal his guns was sentenced to 76 years in prison Wednesday.
Cook County Judge Lawrence Flood sentenced Bernard Williams, 26, to 55 years for first-degree murder and 21 years for armed robbery, said Tandra Simonton, a spokeswoman for the Cook County state’s attorney’s office. The sentences will run consecutively.
A jury deliberated for less than 3½ hours before convicting Williams in April 2017.
RIP Officer Blake.

That sentence is a joke! They should reinstate the death penalty!
10 years Social Just-US Warrior communist are gonna lay the foundation to get him out of jail... mark my words
So he might be out of jail in 38 years (age 64) because of the BS 'good behavior' policy in IL?
Jury deliberated for 3hrs 29 minutes too long
Using Illinois Math, doesn't that mean he'll be out by his Fortieth Birthday?
The bitch will be back on the streets before the half century arrives. If the bitch manages to stay alive.
Willing to bet he is out in 15 or less. He should be dead, instead he will be a hero cop killer in jail.
Only 55 years for murder one? What am I missing?
Stop with the consecutive sentence bullshit... Just stop with the nonsense... Give the motherfucker what he gets.
Drown that bitch.
He does 100% of his time.....70 more years. It's a life sentence in reality. BTW Judge Flood is a former CPD cop.
Why only 75 yrs judge -you pos
The judge, Larry Flood, was former CPD and a great detective out of the Old Area 6.
While he is governed by jurisprudence in his decisions and sentencing, he has shown to always consider justice and solidarity to his background as well.
McCabe partner
Also RIP Officer Blake, you'll remain in our thoughts and prayers.
Judge Flood is a former CPD Officer if my memory serves me.
This is Crook County, Some Liberal Progressive Democrat Lawyers will let him sit for 10 years by them witnesses will have died or be able (for cash) to change their mind about what they said in court or they remembered they were forced by the evil police. Then Some connected Democrat judge will release him.These scumbag lawyers will sue for 10 million dollars. The Democrat Mayor will then agree with the Democrat Corporation Counsel not to fight the ruling and charge the Democrat voting tax payers 3 million for the murderer, three million for the Law firm and one million for donations to the DNC, Welcome to Chicago
Found guilty of murder and armed robbery? The sentence should be a bullet between the eyes. Good bye! Problem solved and not very expensive for tax payers.
I've never heard of a consecutive sentence being given - they all seem to be concurrent. Does that mean they thought this was actually serious?
So he is going to actually serve about 14 years then, eh?
And during that time, every need he has will be provided to him - housing, food, medical care, dental care, books, cable television, schooling, college degrees, various job training, mental health counseling,group therapy and maybe even a video interview or two.
This is different than the "outside" how? Not much in this dude's life is going to change, besides his range and what he has access to steal and who he has access to rob.
People like this are supposed to be given the dirt nap they earned. But then, that makes too much sense!
bring the death penalty

55 years for 1st Degree Murder? That's the problem weak political hack democrat judges. And this will continue in Cook County because the majority of those that vote are uniformed morons. ♠️

Not true. There usually is a way the judge can order that the defendant has to serve 85% of the time. Forgot what they call it. Good judges usually stipulate this when sentencing defendants involving shooting or murders of police officers

Let’s be fair and not rush to judgement on the judge and start calling him a pos. In Illinois there is a law called “Truth in Sentencing” and it states a defendant who murders a police officer will serve 100% of his time. It also includes in the law a person convicted of attempted first degree murder( shooting a police officer will serve 85% of the sentence.
This guy will be 100 before he gets out. Link to the law is below. Read it

Read the Truth in sentencing law. Look it up. 1st degree murder of a P.O. 100%. Attempted murder of a police officer. 85%
