Cook County Public Guardian Patrick Murphy has been called many things. Bombastic. Attention-getting. Annoying. Blabber-mouthed. And we’re just getting warmed up.
Fortunately, Murphy has been all those things on behalf of abused and neglected children and severely disabled adults who are without family. They are people with virtually no voice in society, until Murphy gives them one. He can be forgiven–check that, he should be praised–for speaking in other than genteel, conversational tones when it comes to their needs.
