ABC7 Chicago••nation
Key Points:
- The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) must pay nearly $3 million to Sandra Kolalou, a convicted murderer currently serving a 60-year prison sentence.
- Kolalou was convicted in 2022 for the murder and dismemberment of her North Side landlord, Frances Walker, shortly after receiving an eviction notice.
- Prior to the murder, Kolalou had filed a lawsuit against the CTA after being hit by a bus on the Far North Side three years earlier.
- Despite the CTA's appeal to overturn the payment verdict, a Cook County court of appeals upheld the decision requiring the CTA to pay Kolalou.
