Episode Details

A 61-year-old nurse is suing two private security firms after she was violently knocked off her bike by a fare dodger at a CTA station—leading to a broken leg and sparking outrage over whether the companies, paid nearly $50 million, failed in their duty. The lawsuit claims security guards ignored the incident despite clear surveillance footage, while the firms’ attorneys bizarrely counter that the nurse herself assaulted the jumper. Complicating matters, emails show the nurse had previously warned the CTA about the dangers of fare jumpers—now her lawyer’s calling on Chicagoans to demand accountability. The CTA itself was removed from the suit due to legal immunity, and the fare dodger remains unidentified.
