Chicago Mother Sues City After Murder Charges Dropped Against Her and Son

A mother and her son were charged with murder after the son shot a man who had attacked the mother at a fast food restaurant in Chicago. The charges were dropped, and the mother is now suing the city and arresting officers for malicious prosecution, false arrest, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The mother had a valid firearm owner's identification card and a concealed-carry permit. Her attorney claims that she was a victim and acted in self-defense.
