A Very Cool Picture
Say what you will about this City, it's politics, it's residents and it's employees - it still takes a damn nice photo:
The buildings lit up in blue and the CPD logo and hat band on the left and star number on the right. This and other photos are over at the CPD Memorial website.

Excellent pic! Oh yeah, first!
RIP ERIC
Hey. Where is the girl who drove him into the building "chasing" a car?
Where she at now?
Leave her alone and let her get on with her life. Shes had a hard enough time with his death.
Eric Rest In Peace
I'll bet his mother has a harder time with his death than she does.
Maybe she can be your partner. Just be sure to grab those keys
Got a great idea. Lets start bashing each other like the fuck heads do that hat us. Because we can't stand together, that would be wrong.
Life goes on. Bad for some good for others. Let him rest and let her feel guilt and be paid back in spades the pain she caused. God has a way of evening the score. Other than that that is a beautfiul photo. To bad there's so much political poison ruining our everyday life.
"and be paid back in spades the pain she caused"what the fuck are u talking about asshole.do you think she wanted this to happen?we get in accidents all the time and po's get hurt.nobody wants to get hurt or killed but it happens.we are only human.
The coppers that hang out at Dugans on a weekley basis and get drunk to oblivion...need to stop calling district cars to drive you home....either become more responsible or call a fucking cab!!This has become an "expected" practice every weekend....you need to designate a driver or save cabfare.
Off topic, but was anyone show up at the skating rink party in 006 at 76/racine by any chance?
at least they call for rides instead of driving and plowing into other drivers
Sorry, but some of us who are retired do not know the Eric story.
Could you please explain please?
Thank you
this is a photo honoring the police memorial and solorio
listen to some of you assholes on here
to 4:11
FUCK YOU, if you don't want to drive anyone home then don't.
Don't use this as your platform to rant as a fucking stool pidgeon you pimp shit asshole.
You guys are acting like grade schoolers. Remember that non police read this blog. Personally, I really don't like walking outside to be greeted by Pam Zekman or one of the other lesser reporters who are looking to sensationalize stupid stuff. Use your heads people. Quit giving people ammo to use against us.
Leave Eric's memory in tact. He was a good kid who ended up in a tragic event. It could have happened to any one of us. All of you out there know our lives can change in an instant on this job.
RIP Eric.
God has this job changed
RIP Eric and all our fallen brothers and sisters
RIP Eric.
to 0115 aka "asshat" she is still one of us, I would work with her. You troll.
Once again Memorial day is upon us
A day of fun and relaxation
In between the parties and parades take the time to reflect
Reflect on the young men and women
Who heard another calling
Who left their families and friends
To fight in a distant land
To fight a foreign enemy
To fight for our liberty
To fight for a cause they felt was just
Shake that veteran’s hand as he sits
Watching that parade pass by
And thank him or her
For their service to our country
For the freedoms we all should cherish
For a country we call AMERICA
THANK YOU
Beautiful photo!!
May you rest in peace, Officer Solorio.
SWAT handled the job on 59 and dan ryan, the district didn't call us until they were 3hrs into the job, we showed up and thejob was defused by us in less than 30 minutes.
After their three hours of prep work....we need to get carbines and some other toys in beat cars.
Just a few thoughts............
As far as Eric Solorio is concerned, IF you want to truly show your support to HIS family [That includes 'US' his "Police Family"] then consider putting your money where your mouth is.**
Grab a partner or two and make plans for next years National Law Enforcement Memorial in Washington D.C. , May 13, 14, 15, 2007.
Our attendance there annually is proof positive of OUR commitment to all our fallen brothers and sisters in Law Enforcement of our commitment to, "Never Let Them Walk Alone."
Give it some serious consideration.
** I don't mean this to be a put-down if you can't afford to go. I'm well aware of 'our' financial burdens, i.e. mortgage, tuition, taxes, car and credit card payments etc., to name a few. My point is merely to seriously consider honoring our tradition of saluting all our brothers and sisters at the National Memorial.
IF time and money play a factor in your inability to participate, then an equivalent gesture would be to honor our fallen by keeping them in your thoughts and prayers.
Stay safe out there and remember OUR " Thin Blue Line."

Asshat? Why don't you go fuck yourself. I was there that night. Were you?
That was a tragedy that could have been avoided many times over. MANY times!
People should be told about who they might be working with so they can take appropriate measures to protect themselves.
So take your self-righteousness and stick it in your ass.
As someone who knew Eric and the type of man he was, he deserved better.
Don't know much about the Eric Solorio (RIP) incident, but agree that we should know who we are working with.
Speaking of which, whatever happened to that girl who was in housing, got shot with her own weapon, then went to a Northside district somewhere in A3? She still on the job?
Ahhhhh, the power of photoshop.
That girl is in 020, where they send all the trouble folks
Seems Gunther from Burnham was chrg'd. in 98 with impersonation and badges, but it was thrown out. Say's he collect's but he sells. Here th Chg. badges were very good, now would these be the new one's?
Gunther, 62, a part-time police officer in suburban Burnham, was charged under the new law Friday, said Penny Mateck, spokeswoman for Cook County Sheriff Michael Sheahan. Gunther was released on $1,000 bond. The law was prompted by a Chicago Sun-Times series that revealed how easy it was to buy police badges online.
In Gunther's basement, sheriff's officers said they found a legitimate Cook County sergeant's star that appeared to have been altered, plus 73 Chicago Police Department badges that were among the better fakes investigators have seen
Yea, he had the new style, which Hillard claimed coudn't be copied..
Public housing has a habit of dropping off their problem cases in northside districts.
JB Gunzzzz anyone?
How about some good news for a change?
Just when we thought there wasn't much hope for our youth based upon our jaded versions of kids we deal with day-in, day-out, there's hope, my brothers-in-blue.
Cameron Schilling, a 22 year old student at Eastern Illinois University has elected to share his God-given talents with "Illinois' Finest."
On this eve of Memorial Day, click on his web site to view this young man's talent and dedication.

While there, drop him a note of appreciation. While were on the topic, take a moment Monday to pray for all our veterans. If you have a flag–FLY IT!
Stay safe.
I'll never forget that night of his wake.
With each step I took toward Blake & Lamb, my legs grew heavier and heavier.
Once inside, I went to his mother. Out of the corner of my eye, you could see him lying in the coffin. In uniform, looking so very young. Someone who will never be married, have a family...

Hey dumbfuck, those buildings actually had the windows blacked out with his star # and CPD. Open your eyes once in a while, jagoff troll!!
10:31 PM
I am a third party.
Why is that you find it necessary to call someone a "dumbfuck" and a "jagoff" after an inane post. Does it make you fell good about yourself to insult others over absolutely nothing?
Now go look in a mirror. What do you see?
female police officers drive like females so what would you expect they belong behind a desk
spoken like a true idiot!
why it's true this was not her first crash, don't judge until you know the ALL the facts or the people involved. Eric deseerved much better then he was dealt,females get your shit together before your hurt others, start taking this job serious.
Male coppers can't drive for shit either,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
How can anyone take this job serious? Just look at the stuff you idiots write here and you KNOW this job is NOT legit or taken serious by almost anyone!!!
That TRU broad is in 011 now 3rd watch. Shes a hottie and I heard she swings both ways!!!!!
And wear your seatbelt! the "real reason" behind this tragedy
People on here need to shut the F^ck up about these kinda things!!! I am ashamed sometimes reading the crap that should never be said on here. Cowards!
I hate the news to you but it's not just tru and sos that blow thru lights, it's everywhere, district asshole.
fuck you krasholio she was as worthless as any other female on the job, and a real fucking headcase too!
I cannot speak for SCC.
However, it appears that a very nice tribute/memorial was put on this blog and judging from some of the comments, a pure lack of respect and honor.

You are a stroke! Why dont you give everybody her name in case they dont know. Or better yet send her pic to the media so the whole world can see the girl who killed Eric. IT was an accident! I knew Eric and her very well! He would have been driving the same way. He died being the police. I would rather work with her then all the idiots out there who quickly turned their back on her.
RIP Eric and all of our fallen Coppers, firefighters, Members of the U.S. Military
Apparently Eric trusted his partner enough to both work with her and drive. Have consideration here for both officer's.
RIP Eric.
Let him have at least that much.
Krasholio said... blah blah blah.
Hey moron, if you didn't know him personally, HOW DARE YOU attempt to speak for him!!!! Don't put words into his mouth.
And if you don't know anything about what type of copper she is, SHUT THE HELL UP!!!
You should never speak except from personal knowledge.
While I do not think she should be vilified anymore, it might do the other poster some good to know that she was not his partner. She was just working with him that night. I do not think "trust" is an issue here.
RIP Eric.
hey 3:58...is it hard living with those bloody dragging knuckles?

You are an idiot!
Probably not very smart either. I doubt you even knew him
28 May,2006 Mr.6:01...First of all..learn how to spell jagballs....you'd obviously NEVER pass the Sgt's test and secondly...NO we don't have to give rides home to anyone...if you're so fucking stupid and I can see that you are,to go out and knowingly get hammered as in I know I am going to a bar and I know I'm going to get shitfaced...how and why the fuck is it our responsibility to drive your ignorant,stupid,drunken ass home?? You are supposedly a responsible adult police officer right?? Or mabye NOT....plan accordingly and arrange an alternate ride home or call your mama?? You are a typical jagoff who thinks he is king of the fucking world...you better open up your eyes junior...this is 2006 and when you plow into someone and kill or injure them...you WILL lose your job and the State's Attorney's office WILL try to put you in the penitentiary....got that pinhead?? What I am trying to say is that you should NOT DRINK and DRIVE and if you are going to a bar and havent learned how to handle your alcohol....you need to establish an alternate form of transportation....Ie: a ride from a non drinker or designate a driver...NOT the on duty police we are not your fucking taxi service you illiterate drunk.and its spellet pigeon dumbfuck!
