Revisiting John Conroy's journalistic odyssey into police torture
John Conroy "did more than anyone else in all of journalism to expose police torture in Chicago," Don Terry wrote last year in the Columbia Journalism Review . "Conroy and the Reader kept the story alive for years until reinforcements arrived."
That coverage began with Conroy's "House of Screams," which ran on the Reader 's cover in January 1990— the story of torture within the brick walls of Area 2 headquarters, then at 91st and Cottage Grove.
A year earlier, a friend of Conroy's, a writer for the monthly Chicago Lawyer , had told him of a murder convict who was suing the city of Chicago, its police department, and four detectives, alleging that detectives had used electroshock to extract a confession from him in 1982. The principal defendant among the police officers was a lieutenant named Jon Burge, who'd been the commanding officer of violent crimes at Area 2. The plaintiff, Andrew Wilson, had confessed to killing two cops, slayings he had, in fact, committed. His suit alleged that his treatment at Area 2 wasn't unique—that police customarily abused persons suspected of killing police officers, with supervisors either participating or looking the other way.
