Editor's note: The Chicago Police Dept. does not have a monopoly on this type of theft. The property of helpless wards is looted just as soon as the court harpies of the Probate Court of Cook County arrive at their unguarded residences. A prime example of this is a Luger pistol belonging to a ward that "disappeared" from his home. The court knew about this and yet did not report the theft of a dangerous weapon.
