I spent part of the day reading the cases they shared online from October to December 2015. Those cases can be read from the link. Only one pertaining to a fatal shooting, has a trail date (TBD) to be determined. http://www.cityofchicago.org/city/en/depts/cpb/provdrs/police_discipline.html
IPRA ( Independent Police Review Authority ) claims they would divulge some details in active cases.
There are no active cases unless the Superintendent of Police files charges.
Currently before the Police Board are the following cases in which the Superintendent of Police has filed charges against a member of the Chicago Police Department (unless otherwise noted below, the Superintendent recommended that the member be discharged from the Chicago Police Department).
All hearings take place in the Board’s hearing room and are open to the public. Unless otherwise indicated, hearings are scheduled to begin at 10:00 a.m.
Individuals wishing to attend a hearing are advised to contact the office of the Police Board the day before or the morning of the hearing to learn whether the hearing will proceed as scheduled, as cases are occasionally continued at the last minute.

What We Do
Police Discipline
Overview
The Independent Police Review Authority (IPRA), the Police Department, and the Police Board have different roles. The responsibility to receive complaints of alleged misconduct by Chicago police officers rests with IPRA. Depending on the nature of the allegations, either IPRA or the Police Department's Bureau of Internal Affairs will investigate the complaint. The Board’s role is to decide those disciplinary matters that are filed with the Board.
The Police Board's Role
The Police Board decides disciplinary matters involving allegations of serious misconduct made against members of the Chicago Police Department. The Board has the responsibility to:
- Decide cases when the Superintendent of Police files charges to discharge or suspend a police officer for more than thirty days; and
- Decide matters in which the Chief Administrator of the Independent Police Review Authority and the Superintendent of Police do not concur regarding discipline of a police officer.

IN OTHER STUDIES DONE TODAY ( They Dont Honor the Oath )
I found the Law Enforcers Oath of honor
A public affirmation of adhering to an Oath of Honor is a powerful vehicle demonstrating ethical standards. To be successful at enhancing integrity within an organization, leaders must ensure the oath is recited frequently and displayed throughout the organization as well as ensuring ethical mentoring and role modeling are consistent, frequent and visible.
The following Law Enforcement Oath of Honor is recommended as by the International Association of Chiefs of Police as symbolic statement of commitment to ethical behavior:
On my honor,
I will never betray my badge,
my integrity, my character,
or the public trust.
I will always have
the courage to hold myself
and others accountable for our actions.
I will always uphold the constitution
my community and the agency I serve.
Before any officer takes the Law Enforcement Oath of Honor, it is important that he/she understands what it means. An oath is a solemn pledge someone makes when he/she sincerely intends to do what he/she says.
