Looks like the troll is back. No one is "throw[ing] a fit", which
qualifies this as trolling.

Furthermore, the troll is making stuff up that goes far beyond what the
law actually is in Illinois on this:
(50 ILCS 725/3.4) (from Ch. 85, par. 2557)
Sec. 3.4. The officer under investigation shall be informed in writing
of the name, rank and unit or command of the officer in charge of the
investigation, the interrogators, and all persons who will be present on
the behalf of the employer during any interrogation except at a public
administrative proceeding. The officer under investigation shall inform
the employer of any person who will be present on his or her behalf
during any interrogation except at a public administrative hearing.
(Source: P.A. 94‑344, eff. 1‑1‑06.)
The "POBR" cited is clearly open to negotiation. The notion that police
have rights on the job that other workers do not have access that are
irrevocable strikes at the heart of equal before the law. And a recent
issue of an Illinois publication makes it clear that this issue is
completely open to negotiation by management:

In fact, no national POBR even exists, except as the goal of law
enforcement unions. If they want to campaign for that, they can do it
elsewhere than on Indymedia:
