A former bodyguard for Chicago Mayor Harold Washington faces felony animal abuse charges after police found his horses malnourished and shuttered up in filthy stalls at his stable in unincorporated Bloom Township, authorities said.
Two of the four horses owned by Frank Lee, 67, of the 3500 block of West Adams Street in Chicago were so poorly kept that they were later euthanized by authorities, the Cook County sheriff's office said.
Lee, a retired Chicago police officer, was charged Monday with four counts of felony aggravated animal abuse, as was the stable's manager, Donnie Edwards, 62, of the 1600 block of East 87th Place.
Lee once worked as the personal security guard for Washington, sources familiar with the case said.

STATE FUNDING SOURCES
Horse racing a win-win for school systems By JAMES A. YOUNG Published on: 08/07/08
As president of the Georgia-South Carolina Horse Racing committee, I am very concerned about Georgia education funding. I strongly support the efforts of the Consortium for Adequate School Funding.
Although Georgia is seeking to have the consortium's lawsuit dismissed, most career groups, professional educators and school superintendents throughout the state, as well as many Georgia legislators, agree that education funding in this state is inadequate.
