The Chicago P.D. lead said that there will be a “perfect segue” between the season 7 finale, which saw a police officer profile a young Black man, and season 8.

“We’re continuing from there and drawing out the bigger things,” he said.

Beghe added he’s looking forward to seeing his Detective Sergeant Hank Voight, who has been violent against criminals, reflect on the role of police and its relationship with the Black community, hopefully realizing that things need to change.

“So it’s fun, but it’s a responsibility. There may be people who are offended, there may be new fans,” he said. “Who knows what’s going to happen, but we’re going in both barrels blazing.”
Unless this means Vought being the villain taken down and his influence and legacy is completely erased from Chicago PD this will be toothless posturing. Vought's so terrible he's become the new Vic Mackey in police tv shows. This also should have been done seasons ago.
