ICE Arrests Suburban Chicago Police Officer for Alleged Visa Overstay

The arrest of a suburban Chicago police officer Radule Bojovic for allegedly overstaying a U.S. visa has reignited debate over Illinois’ sanctuary policies and the breakdown between state and federal enforcement systems. The case exposes a logical contradiction: how could someone living in the country illegally be sworn in to uphold the law, carry a firearm, and qualify for a public pension? As officials trade blame, questions grow about vetting failures, background checks, and the policy conflicts that allowed this to happen in the first place.
