(Chicago Sun Times) — Foreclosure convictions are on hold again in Cook County. Sheriff Tom Dart, who is preparing a run for Chicago mayor, on Tuesday ordered deputies to stop carrying out mortgage foreclosure evictions after admissions by some leading lenders that employees had verified some foreclosures without even reading the documents.”This is so outrageous and these poor families are being put through this day in and day out by people that don’t do their jobs,” said Dart, displaying the same disdain he showed when he announced a similar decision two years ago. “It’s so hard for me to stomach these people because this isn’t just their bike we’re taking away or their car. It’s their house.”
