CHICAGO STANGLER MURDERS 75 WOMEN!

But cops refuse to hunt for evil serial killer

-

ASAVAGE serial killer chillingly called the “Chicago Strangler” has been stalking the Windy City for more than a decade — claiming dozens of victims in his deadly spree — while his very existence is being covered up by bungling cops!

The death spree, which began in 2001, could be as high as 75, according to private investigat­ors — but no one knows for sure because bonehead cops are treating the murders as separate cases.

But the Murder Accountabi­lity Project (MAP), a nonprofit crime-busting organizati­on, has used a complex computer formula to link the slayings — and points the finger at one kill-crazy psycho! The common threads in the murders: victims are mostly black prostitute­s or junkies who were sexually assaulted, strangled or asphyxiate­d and left in alleys, abandoned buildings, vacant lots or garbage cans in the city’s poor South and West Side areas.

Outraged relatives,

politician­s and law enforcemen­t sources are accusing cops of letting the strangler prowl the city by following a faulty theory — and are begging the FBI to step in.

A federal law enforcemen­t source slammed Chicago cops as “bungling fools” and says their refusal to recognize what’s going on “is the textbook definition of a ‘cover-up.’ They allow him to continue wreaking havoc. Women, specifical­ly those of color, risk being mercilessl­y murdered by the Chicago Stranger — mainly because buffoons with

badges did not contact the FBI!” Community leader Bishop

Gregg L. Greer, founder of Freedom

First Internatio­nal, says residents in the strangler’s 20-square-mile hunting ground are terrified.

“We believe wholeheart­edly a serial killer does exist — and to date, the Chicago police have not even acknowledg­ed the fact,” he says.

MAP founder Mark Hargrove says he gave his analysis to cops, but they “have quite clearly said they don’t yet have clear evidence of a serial killer.”

Deputy Chief of Detectives Brendan Deenihan publicly dismissed the serial killer theory by saying he doesn’t believe “one or two bad guys” are committing the murders and are “skipping the white prostitute­s to kill the black ones.”

Bishop Greer says, “Something has to be done and it’s falling on deaf ears.”
