Chicago Police Department Could Reprimand One Thousand Cops For .

The Chicago Police Department is considering disciplinary actions against a vast amount of its officers for sneaking a glance at the arrest reports of two fellow cops.

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, over 1,000 inside the department have accessed the records, which detail allegations that two officers sexually assaulted a 22-year-old woman in Rogers Park.

Those officers looked at the records "without cause or authority to do so," according to an Internal Affairs memo scanned by the Second City Cop blog. "Access to data is restricted to official police business," the memo states. "Access of data for personal or other reasons is prohibited."

NBC Chicago speculates that officers may have pulled up the papers to take some of its lurid details. Apparently, the two officers (on duty at the time) found the woman weeping and drunk after a battle with a man. The law report states that one officer had sex with the woman in the team car; the threesome then returned to her home, where they played strip poker. When an officer ended up in her bed, the woman felt intimidated, and as though she could no longer deny their advances. She ran out of her apartment screaming for help, allegations say.

The officers who viewed the documents will have a modest kind of internal punishment known as a SPAR, according to CBS. But some object to the across-the-board punishment: The Chicago Fraternal Order of Police calls the act to check the officers "almost comical."

"To start with, they let the national capacity to block sensitive reports, and they didn`t do it," said FOP spokesman Pat Camden.

Camden adds that the department could tell specifically who did access and mark out the salacious reports, so it shouldn`t mete out widespread discipline.
