Officer Bosack, I was reminded of you today as the Chicago news stations carried a story about the CPD horse, Bosack, named in your honor. I also remembered our days at Fenger High School. I was very saddened on the day your watch ended. You left behind many people who loved you and will never forget you. Like so many brave men and women of the CPD you died serving others and will forever be remembered as the hero you were. RIP Bill.

Patrolman Bosak,
On today, the 40th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you to you and your Partner for your service and sacrifice the citizens of Chicago. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Today on the 39th anniversary of your sacrifice more than a dozen officers gathered at 1600 hrs, the time of your sacrifice, at the location you were murdered. Many of those officers were not even born at that time. We will never forget the sacrifice of you and your partner.

The death sentence of you and your friend's killer were commuted by Ryan apparently because of the disturbingly high amount of exonerations in the state.

I'm not going to say anything about the governor. I'm gonna ask something else. How the hell did your killer stall his execution long enough. Some people who committed terrible crimes at the same time you were murdered or even after that were executed but your killer made it. I don't understand, how do psychopathic serial killers like John Wayne gacy and andrew kokoraleis get executed while your killer makes it. By that standard, he should have executed about a year after gacy.

Your killer was almost as worthy (and guilty) for death as that sick animal Gacy. In my mind, deliberately killing 2 police officers is pretty close in evil as being a serial killer. (Not to diminish the pain and suffering of gacys victims)

PO Bosak and PO Van Schak worked for my father in Dist. 22 when this injustice happened. I heard him cry at night over this shooting and the loss of two brave men. Kenneth Allen is the thug who did this shooting and shame on our government for not stopping him sooner. He should not have been on the streets when this happened. May god continue to watch over your families. thank you for watching and protecting us.

The double murder of you and your partner serve as an example how the most routine police work can end in tragedy. When I was a rooke patrolman I served in the district where you were killed and spoke with officers who worked that day. Please know both of you will never be fogotten even after 32 years. Thank you.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 30th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes love or respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. I regret your family was denied justice by Gov. Ryan.

Rest In Peace.
