"Migrants' Allegations of Sexual Abuse by Cops Elude Police Oversight Agency"

The Civilian Office of Police Accountability (COPA) in Chicago is investigating allegations that police officers sexually assaulted migrants living in police stations. However, the agency is having difficulty finding potential victims. Another allegation of sexual misconduct has also emerged from a different police station. COPA has not yet substantiated any of the alleged abuse, but the investigation remains ongoing. The agency is taking a victim-centered approach and acknowledges the barriers that migrants may face in reporting such incidents. Activists have called for the release of the officers' names, and COPA has provided updates to relevant authorities. Migrants may have left the city, making it harder for investigators to reach potential victims.
