The good news for David Henderson is that prosecutors did not pursue the misdemeanor battery charge he faced for allegedly striking passersby with a briefcase in River North last year. The bad news is that they charged him with hate crimes against the Chicago cops who arrested him.
Henderson, 47, has now pleaded guilty to two counts of felony hate crime, receiving a sentence of two years of mental health probation from Judge Lauren Edidin, according to court records.
