There's a process, or so we heard. And Rahm is doing his own thing, too:
Mayor-elect Rahm Emanuel today said he's waiting for the police board to submit the names of three finalists for police superintendent so he can name Chicago’s next top cop.
“I have to respect a process, and that’s my goal,” Emanuel said. “I look forward to getting those names.”
The Chicago Police Board must interview candidates, conduct background searches and recommend three finalists. Emanuel has been been doing his own interviews of potential candidates as the police board does its work.
So is the Police Board wasting time if Rahm has his own career track for his picks?
