Joel Weisman and his panel of guests discuss the week's news.

Arrests were made this week in the murder of Dwyane Wade's cousin. Were the suspects freed too soon after prior convictions? Mayor Rahm Emanuel thinks so. “The criminal justice system is undermining the public safety on our streets,” he said at a news conference. That story and more this week with Joel Weisman and guests Charles Thomas, Lauren Chooljian, Craig Dellimore and Jim Litke.
