February Homicide Totals
Tribune and Sun Times stories.
17 homicides in February compared to 28 in January. 45 for the year. A few weeks ago, we jokingly referred to the homicide total being so low that we all deserved a big raise. If the rate remained steady for the year (which it won't) we'd top out at 270 homicides for the year, down from 447.
And you still wouldn't get a fair raise from the mayor, the city council or the citizens.

Speaking of Homicides.......one piece of crap drug dealer/gang-banger/waste of f-in life...........just shot dead in the 006th District at 7800 S. Peoria. So here's another one for the tally count.
the homicide rate in Chicago is now low because the area 2 gun team is cleaning up the city of guns. hooray for the area 2 gun team on their fine job of getting those dangerous guns off the streets. this not only applies to the area 2 gun team but the other areas in the city as well. i attend the c.a.p.s. meetings and know a good thing when i see it.
SIMPLE TRUTH! Go back to 1970 medicine and our homocide rate would be 3000 a year!!! It's advanced life support and medical miracles that keeps asshole alive. Even if they are fucked up for the rest of there useless lives. It's the same reason our death toll in Iraq is so low. Advanced life support, get them to a trauma center and survivability is huge even if quality of life won't be.
i totally forgot about the tommabunns!!! all kidding aside, tommabunns does run it on the westside...what a great man
I know a Tommy-Buns with a great BUM! Oh Yes! I love nice strong muscular buns! Show me the beef cakes please!
And Area Two gun Team has some hot buns on it! Oh Yes it does! And some great love steaks! Those well hung beef cakes are my favorites!
Give me some real manhole love to make me happy!
Love Ya All,
XOXOXOOX Bruce XOXOXOXO
I have worked hard helping bring down the homicide rate. When do I get my Crime Reduction Award?
Thats okay, Cline will give a crime prevention ribbon to all PO's on the job during the reduction.
Even all the dogasses who don't do shit. So it will have the same value as the American Flag ribbon given to everyone for the Democratic Convention.
And what's the deal with these guys who wear their ribbons on a daily basis on their shirts or vestcovers? Are you that insecure you have to show everyone that your sgt can write good paper? Keep them on the blues and wear them to formal events. You won't look so foolish that way.
Sorry, last post meant "crime REDUCTION ribbon."
For all the grammer Nazi's out there.
beware the "calm before the storm"...
"STRAP IT DOWN BOYS AND GIRLS"
Anyone who is caught wearing either the crime reduction ribbion, dnc, caps award or appearence award is a goof.
I may not be Seiser..I may not RUN IT..But, I have the runs! Does that count?
So that will make about 6 ribbons you can get without ever using your handcuffs, leaving the review office,or ever making an arrest. All you had to do is kind of show up for work, and you too can look like a hero..Handing this shit out like candy so the "Do-Nothings" can look like "Do-Somethings."
Perfect solution for Fread Hampton memorial...let's name a pot hole after him, there are plenty on west side....
Why do any of you idiots even give a fuck about ribbons????
If you care about them so much, you can have the ones sitting at the bottom of my sock drawer or you can dig some other ones out of the city dump.
They're all bullshit. The only real award is the Lambtree award.
Back on topic......
Fuck the Homicide rate. If any one really thinks that good police work had anything to do with the number reduction, then you sir, are a moron.
Can any one say "GENTRIFICATION"???????
Gentrification: push dude out so rich ass whitey moves in. I dig it!
the gun teams rock!!
TO: 3/03/2006 08:47:02 AM
I have to disagree, there are a bunch of bs ones that have already been identified....But I believe the Award of Valor and some of the others hold the same value as the Lambert Tree/Carter Harrison...There can only be one officer for the the Lambert Tree, others have the possibility for valor etc...
Perhaps It’s Time To “Off” An Alderwomen?
http://crimefilenews.blogspot.com/2006/03/perhaps-its-time-to-off-alderwomen.html
I would sincerely like to call each of you to gather at/protest the City Council meeting on 29 March 06. This is the date that they will vote on the issue of naming a portion of Monroe for Frad Hampton. Be respectful, but BE THERE!
We know FOP reads this site. Please consider organizing something for this date.
If you want to talk about ribbons. What happened to the old days when a D/C was given to you for doing outstanding police work. Now a days a D/C is given out like an Honorable and an Honorable is given out like toilet paper. D/C’s given for a robbery arrest, no special circumstances or clear up of multiple patterns? What a joke, that used to be an Honorable. An Honorable now for catching a guy with two rocks on him and writing it up as he was in possession with intent to deliver. Embarrassing
Thats a damn good idea I will put a sign up in the unit for those who want to go. Do you know what time it is that they will vote.Hey SCC you should make it a topic to let people know that we are serious about going. By the way FUCK Fred. Rot in hell you P.O.S.
Ho Ho, most of you cops look like Mexican generals with all your phoney ribbons! Who cares about ribbons and honorables just show me da money! You can have all the awards you want, but screw up once, YOUR GONE!
Where has SGT. John GARRIDO been for FOUR MONTHS........ He's not on the medical! ANYONE? I hope hes okay. We need him in AREA 5.
only the cops in 11 because they are going to keep that starbucks busy and safe thank you you hard workers aka. the real police
Sgt Garrido from area 5 is having a sex change operation.
I think the 019 district and all the hard work the pos and supervisors do there should be rewarded with crime reduction award.
add another homicide for today
67th Honore
Garrido is a stroke.
i used to work in 019 and left a few months ago, the best lt,s and sgts in the city. just ask any one of them.
When will we get our crime reduction ribbons; I think it's a great idea.
It would be interesting to see how many hospitalizaion reports were done which were classified "Death Investigation" but were really straight up "Homicides." Reclassify the case reports and you keep the numbers the way you want.
I want my take home car to have a crime reduction ribbon pasted on the side so I can show the public I'm the real police!!!
hey midnight dog,
get offa midnights at itll tighten up for ya, then you can work with Seiser and he'll run yu...
You have to buy the reduction ribbon, its not free.
the chicago police department doesnt manipulate stats, or tell police officers to kill crime by changing UCR codes. cmon that would be dishonest.
can anyone remember a certain mayor and her puppet super killin crime a while back? they wouldnt be doing that again would they? naw...
How many of you goofs gonna get ASP training? Maybe we can use one of you as a test subject on a brutality beef? That toy will cause more trouble than the maglite ever did.
A/one gang lt dumped because he was caught working days/weekends off. Is 9 tac lt next? Dugan is cleaning house of killackys suckholes
The maglite never caused any trouble. The trouble was caused by idiots bringing in shitbirds with caved in skulls and writing they fell on the paper. Same as anything. If you use it, whether or not you have to get creative, justify on paper. And to 12:50, I'm guessing you are talking about Jane Byrne. I don't know wear you have gotten your information, just keep in mind that woman was the best friend the police will ever have.
Amen about the paper brother (1:31). The union ought to offer classes on how to write paper.
For 99.9% of these incidents, whatever caused you to strike someone was fear of danger to you or others. Use this language (R/O was in fear for his life) and state every aspect of the threat that will fit on the paper.
But the one thing that will trip you, your partners and coworkers, and your supervisors up, is getting anyone caught in a lie you tell. Particularly one that can be shown to be false. Like denying that someone was hit with a mag-lite when the indent in their head is shaped just like a maglite.
Thanks for noting it brother. This CANNOT BE SAID ENOUGH.
The problem is too many cops usy bravdo tough guy talk and don't want to express they had fear of death or injury to themselves or partners. It get's them jammed every time!
blagoabitch appoints racist hate monger to Hate Crimes Panel? WTF!
Back stabbing Meeks running for Guv? WTF!
doesnt the constitution say that when the people think that the government no longer services the people we have the right to eliminate it?
i advocate a "police state"
with seiser as supreme chancellor.
and believe me "Seiser" and a team of monkeys working around the clock go do a better job than Daley and Blago. I know cause he told me so...
seiser runs it...
Did anyone look under Dean's desk for Garrido?

I'm glad someone brought this up! For almost four months this guy has not been at work, & we (the sgts in Area5 ) have been carrying the burden, just so Lil Johnny could study for his Bar Exam....& not drop one slip....If your in the click-your gold. If not- YOUR FUCKED. STandard policy in AREA5.
Why doesn't anyone count how many homicides there were in the CHA buildings that are no longer up? If hte crime strategy was to knock down Robert Taylor, it worked great. CAPS my ass!

Yummy!!
Looking for advice on how to beat the piss test. I heard a detective did it several years ago, just curious how.
Seiser runs Garrido
garrido is seisers hand puppet
If you masterbate about a dozen time prior to the pee-test you will pass. It cleans your system out. (Males Only)
Also right before the pee-test, masterbate till your just about to unload but stop. Then the urine will be mixed with a lot of unshot fishes. If you know what I mean.

I don't known who you are but I hate everything about you. Dumbfuck.
I'm sorry, did I upset you.
Don't hate the playa.
If you hate me you hate every other copper who beat the system.
To all the Garrido Haters,
He was on furlough dumb asses. Enough with the lies. He is a great boss to work for and everyone should be so lucky to work for him.
Lastly, get a life and you would not have to worry about where Garrido is or was.
Going back to the ribbons. I have my share of ribbons including the blue star award and my city hall plaque for being the first runner up for the carter harrison award, but the fact is...my most proudest one is a d/c award for finding a driver of a car (hit & run)that killed an 12 yr. old girl on Franklin Blvd. after 5 1/2 years. As fucked up as Fillmore is, it brought closeure to the family and made me a little more proud to be a Chicago Policeman.
It's those little awards that keep some of us in tune. Stay Safe

Agreed!
I worked for him in 021 and he was arguably one of the best sergeants we ever had! The coward who posted that shit is more than likely completely worthless in every facet of life.
To To all the Garrido Haters
I do not know why you people are ripping on him. He must have asked you to do your job. I have known John for a lot of years and when he was in Patrol he did his Job. I'm sure you can com up with a story about him, we have all had our moments but it sounds like you North side Detective BITCHES are using this blog to talk about him. try and say it to his face. Or better yet handle your jobs and stop playing video games on company time.
no no no we have to give it for the big bad 025 they are truly the hard dogs of the city
I mean just plain out dogs from everything, desk crew to lock up to the streets
Put me in the Garrido Fan Club.
Good sergeant and a nice guy. Stating that he was off for four months is an absolute lie. He was on furlough and everyone who works there knows it.
011 has a new LT on 3rd Watch-if anyone can find a new home for him, it would be greatly appreciated.
WASHINGTON Mar 3, 2006 (AP)— U.S. Capitol Police Chief Terrance W. Gainer announced his resignation Friday after objections were raised to the hiring of his son-in-law as a police officer.
Gainer, who served for four years as head of the police force in charge of protecting Congress, said his retirement would be effective April 6.
I'm sure the drop in homicides is going on in other places too - just take a look at this law enforcement
http://media.putfile.com/police-dance
To Lefty: why dont you go to Iraq and straiten that mess out. I am sure we can raise the money for a firts class ticket for your sorry ass. Oh, and I will throw in a dayglow orange camo unifom so you dont accidently get shot.
I am also a Garrido fan. He was on furlough for four months. Look at his time card. He was marked working for at least 25 of those days.
I don't know this guy, he may very well be the reincarnation of Christ. That doesn't explain why he gets paid not to come to work. If true, that is a complete slap in the face to everyone who actually shows up for work. How many years you need on the job to get a four month furlough?
Actually, I think he took a 13b, 1b and 2a with numerous C/U days sprinkled throughout to hook it all together.
But don't let the facts get in the way of all your whining.
As usual, the people who are just fucking miserable to be around on a daily basis in A/5 are the only ones I've noticed complaining that he was gone for TWO months ( not four ).
I mean if he's such a stroke ( he's not ) then wouldn't you actually be happy that he was gone for "four Months"? Then again, NOTHING makes some of you happy except trying to make others as miserable as you are.
I guess all those years sucking on a bong really helped.
way to stay on topic; as usual.
This site reaches new lows on a weekly basis.
Isn't there an unwritten rule about using names on here?
this site has become a great way to anonymously rat on fellow officers; regardless of the truth.
I can't wait until we are all required to swipe in and out; I can almost hear the crying now.
Better save up your time now becuase you're all going to need it.
"this site has become a great way to anonymously rat on fellow officers; regardless of the truth."
Amen, brother.
Got a beef? No problem, just stick it on "THE Blog" and be assured half the Department and a whole lot of outsiders can read about what you are too afraid to face like a man.
Pathetic!

Don't be stupid. The clout endowed on this job stab the rest of us in the back all the time. Most of the time you don't even know who did it.
Can you ,Mr. Patrolman-for-Life name ONE boss who has been "man enough" to stand up to the politicians over the Fred Hampton sign issue?
The P.Os/bosses who get bashed on this site that I know have deserved it, and their behavior is no secret. If you don't like the bashing you get here change, quit, or grow some thick skin.
WHAT MAKES HIMS SUCH A GREAT GUY..THAT HE KISSES DEAN THE DREAMS ASS EVERY SECOND OF HIS LIMITED TIME UP ON THE FLOOR.NOT ALL THE SUPERVISORS UP THERE WILL KISS DEANS ASS , AND THE FACT THAT WE AS SUPERVISORS HAVE TO TAKE UP THE SLACK THAT IS LEFT WHEN GARRIDO GETS A PASS ON WORKING FOR FOUR MONTHS IS A JOKE.HE NEVER WORKED ON THE WATCH...HE THREW PARTIES THATS WHY THE YOUNG GUYS-WHO FOLLOWED SUIT AND TURNED INTO DOGS LIKE HIM ARE THE WAY THEY ARE TODAY. HE ROLLED HIS CAR WHILE DRUNK, GOT HIS ASS KICKED & GUN TAKEN WHILE DRUNK...JUST TO NAME A FEW GARRIDO GREATS. GIMME A BREAK, ALL THIS- HE'S A GREAT GUY SHIT IS JUST THAT....SHIT! I CANNOT WAIT TIL LIL JOHNNY COMES HOME & WE CAN STAY ON OUR OWN WATCHES, INSTEAD OF COVERING HIS. HE'LL MAKE A GREAT LAWYER....
3/04/2006 01:00:54 PM
you're stupid; he wasn't off for four months. what are you trying to accomplish here?
Who cares about what kind of boss Dean is he's hot.
I notice all the posts mentioning Sergeant Garrido are all still here, but the ones regarding Chris Nere have been deleted.
Hmmm... Me thinks SCC has a soft spot in his heart for the troll.

any truth to the rummor Dean Andrews from A/5 is keeping company with Ron Huberman?
A/one gang lt dumped because he was caught working days/weekends off. Is 9 tac lt next? Dugan is cleaning house of killackys suckholes
3/03/2006 01:30:23 PM
Hey Dickhead,
A/1 Gang Lt. was in DOG 1. Dugan wanted him to be off something stupid like Mon/Tue, so he quit. Not dumped, pushed for sure, only cause he has a wife and kid, unlike Duggan who has no family, except for his ego.
