19 out of 20 Hispanics - "white"

WGN-TV hit the McHenry County Sheriff's Department pretty hard last Friday night in its 9:00PM news. Reporter Mark Suppelsa had come out to McHenry County for background, and the report was aired last Friday.

Suppelsa reported that one deputy apparently labeled 19 out of 20 Hispanics as "white".

How did it happen that MCSD investigated reports of racial profiling three years ago and found it didn't exist? And then about a year ago, and reached the same conclusion? Does it now finally agree that, after a few thousand questionable tickets have been found, there might be a problem?

Watch here and decide for yourself: Racial Profiling
