Fox Chicago News first showed you the dramatic video of an off duty Chicago police officer beating a barmaid more than two years ago.
A security camera caught the incident at Jesse's Shortstop Inn. Anthony Abbate is charged with the beating. Karolina Obrycka is the barmaid who got the beating. She says it’s because she stopped serving him.
“It stays in your head to the end of your life. You’re not able to forget about that,” aid Obrycka.
Cook County prosecutors originally charged Abbate only with battery for his part in the February 19, 2007 beating.
When Fox Chicago News aired the tape a month later, prosecutors upped the charged to felony aggravated battery and arrested Abbate at his Northside home.

After that video tape was seen by everyone, this cop now plans to plead self-defense.
