CB #16973340

We've been wondering about something.

Why is it when someone is arrested, booked and charged, News Affairs can't get that CB (Central Booking) photo out to the media quick enough? Seriously, it's a matter of hours if some truly heinous crime is committed, an arrest is made, the ASA can't find an excuse not to charge the offender, and the criminal's mugshot is all over the news. It seems even quicker if the alleged offender is a CPD officer attached to SOS.

We've been reading in a few comments and in more than a few e-mails that the CB photos for the recent incident in 008 don't match the photographs that lawyer Terry Ekl is circulating to the media purporting to show a female who was allegedly beaten while handcuffed in the back of a squad car, suffering a broken nose and eye socket.

These photos ought to be out there. At the very least, it would provide a visual counterpoint to the one sided barrage of reporting that is being used to beat this Department to death with. If the only thing the public sees is Ekl's pictures, they have nothing to compare them against, and what's left of our image suffers as a result.

So we're just wondering if what is alleged in our comments has any basis in reality. Do the CB photos that seem to surface in every other case show any such injury? Or do they pretty much shoot Ekl's case to pieces?

PLEASE NOTE: We are not encouraging anyone to break any rules. The Department can and will log everyone who views these photos. It's possible they might even block the photos from viewing at some point. We are looking for opinions from people who may have happened to see both the media photos and the CB photos.

this city and dept has no balls nor will it ever have any balls. i cant count the number of times we could have stepped up to the plate and shut up all those news stations and newspapers, even without jeopardizing the investigation but the they refuse to, all along as the dept and all it's brothers and sisters in blue suffer from the bullshit. i cant wait to retire, i cant wait to leave this crime infested city. smoke and mirrors will always continue and have everybody fooled other than those men and woman who have hands on knowledge of what really goes on. God bless the workn' police, what few are left. fuck all those bi-polar bosses that need to find another profession. i hate bosses that lie to you, promise you the world and do the exact oposite. bosses that have no clue whatsoever how to do real police work. you might have a lot of people and co-workers fooled but not me. you know who you are. you're such an idiot and a pussy to boot.

Pardon my ignorance, what exactly are the rules regarding looking at pictures? I knew of a guy who was called down to IAD because he looked at the arrest report of one of the SOS guys. Whats the deal?

All of this bullshit starts at the top. Daley is a no-ball goof who would never make it in the private sector. He's a lawyer, but I wouldn't want this asshole to defend me in the proverbial parking ticket case. If you cause this little punk any trouble, he will get rid of you. Remember the case where the police allegedly dropped a gangbanger off in a hostile neighborhood? Does Jerimiah Mearaday ring a bell? Everyone thinks his old man, Hoghead Daley, was a champion of the police. This is complete bullshit. How about working on election day, even if was your day off, and not getting paid overtime. Even if it was your day off. That was the CPD's "Daley Day." The myth started with the Dem Convention and was further enhanced
when the denizens of the Westside started burning down the city. Hoghead had two choices: Enforce the law or buy a fiddle and watch the city reduced to rubble. I never met Jane Byrne, but anybody on the job now, owes her a debt of gratitude for at least giving us a contract. Any detectives out there? Remember the "dump?" I didn't matter how well you worked, the bosses downtown would call the areas and tell them to, "Give us five names." And you were gone. Now you've got to really be a fuck-off to get dumped. If "The Punk" had his way we would still be working in servitude. We'd be knocking on doors at election time pimping for this stupid asshole and his jerkoff
buddies, who by the way probably have nothing even remotely in common with the rank and file P.O.
One more thing: Daley is an anti-gunner. When was the last time "The Bitch" walked out of his house where he wasn't surrounded by his "armed posse?" When was the last time he drove himself anywhere?
Words of Wisdom: Look out for yourself,your family, and your job.
CYA is the plan of the day! Let the West Side mutts cull the herd, and go home at night and enjoy life. The DemocRATS broke it, let them buy it.

The photos the lawyer is showing are post surgery, from the alleged injuries. Internal damage was repaired.

The dept can not do anything to you for just looking up arrest reports and photo's. It is for dept use only and if you work for the dept you may view it. If IAD, OPS, any boss questions you about it you are reviewing dept documents just like you would review general orders. You are reviewing reports to learn on how others do things right and how they do them wrong so you know what to do in your time on the job

Plain and simple. Now if you use that information for other reasons or are blabbing to people who do not need to know then you are in some trouble

WHAT RULE SAYS YOU CANT LOOK AT PHOTOS.

THE RULE IS RELEASING INFO.
GO HEAD LOOK UP THE ARREST TOO.

CB photos of arrestees can only be released if the person was charged with a felony, according to NEws Affairs policy. No photo of a person charged with a misd. or a city ordinance can be released to the media. I am not sure what this woman was charged with, but if it was a misd. then no photo. Sometimes our own rules bite us in the ass, but believe me this rule if a good one, especially if a copper or a fireman or his/her family man gets picked up for a misd. would you want that photo out?? Think long term people sometimes the dept. does things for a reason you may not get now, but will make sense in the long run.

My purpose to look at any report is to learn how to correctly investigate and write reports. going through the academy you are shown reports to know how to do them correctly and to show people when mistakes are made. The same could be said for reviewing reports on the computer. Have you ever gone upstairs at any area to review reports? The dicks are happy to let you review them so that when it comes down to it you can help them out by being able to help them with the proper reports and what should and should not be included

Read away people, just do not make copies and pass them out to all your friends

What the fuck is your problem towards this guy you asshole?! Did he do something wrong to you? Dam man, drop your jagoff comments already. You proved your point that you dont like him, but enough already. DO YOU KNOW THE WHOLE STORY???????? Then why arent you volunteering yourself as a defense witness? I know why.........because you are a jagoff, thats why. Ball-less fuck! And if you WERE the POLICE you would know that all coppers leave court through the back not the front as not to get into any shit with the people you locked up. I'm not the type of person to wish bad things on another person , but man, you really are a jagoff. GFY!

I have no knowledge of what happened to OFC RG on that incident with the Female in 008, but I will tell you of a few incidents that he took care of while he was working on Beat 0812, he did the right thing, a true professional. I gave him the info and he did the job. He made me proud to be the police and know someone is taking care of my neighberhood. Beat 812. I know some do not give a shit about police hoods, but he does. I think someone should care about him. A good guy. Plus he gave service to this country as a Marine. I am a Army vet and have no problem giving a man his due. Do not judge this man on news PR. He needs to sleep well at night, because the public court of conception hates the Police. Do not assume he is guilty. I know what it is like to be hated cause you are doing the right thing. So show some support. I have never posted on this site before because I have worked inside the bowels of the illeged Department's think tank. But, F@@@it. This is a good kid and I pray, he is relieved of this pain any working copper has been put though. I hope my spelling is good enough to be posted. Like i have said, this is my first post.
If SCC wants to contact me? I have other info you can use to help our struggle. I just do not know who to talk to.
