What Everyone is Talking About
We certainly hope that Finnigan enjoyed whatever he was doing Tuesday night, because it was probably the last night of freedom he'll ever see in his life.
Tribune, Sun Times, Channel 2, Channel 5, Channel 7.
As an aside, this has got to be the final nail in the coffin of Special Operations. When you have cops conspiring to do hits on other cops, it doesn't matter to the public that there are hundreds of other honest hard working men and women working their asses off in this unit. All that anyone is ever going to remember is that SOS is where an out of control cop tried to get some other cop whacked to cover up misconduct.

I wonder what all of the Finnigan defenders on this site have to say now?
Jerry Finnigan:
Chill out on the wet work, Jerry! Greetings from sunny California (US Penitentiary at Victorville).
Just heard the latest. Club Fed sure beats Stateville or Pontiac.
Did anybody roll over on Risley and the bosses yet?
A real dipshit......but on the other hand, he was probably framed by one of those cowardly IAD rats!! right?
screw him, he's set us back 20 years.
If the FBI follows this investigation of Finnigan to its final conclusion, some bosses both still on the job and retired might have a lot to worry about.
I had a great dream last night. The feds were escorting the Stuttering Prick out of City Hall to a van. He was wearing an orange Ferguson anti-suicidal safety smock with cuffs and leg irons.
Then I woke up with a huge hard-on.
Sometimes dreams do come true. What a party we could have. Dom Perignon by the case til dawn. Imagine him with Ryan and Bubba as alternating cellmates. Orgasmic!
agreed, scc...Finnegan is toast, going to jail for forever...unfortunately, (or fortunately, depending on your point of view), SOS is also toast, ultimately to be disbanded, with some of their functions to be re-assigned (the unit name, however, will be buried)....but a question....what happens to the current and former bosses in SOS (and IAD), with the feds doing a historical investigation into their activities and investigations? What happens to the bosses, who might still be on the job, who were in key positions during the time period that the SOS people were active (i.e., do they stay, do they retire, might they be indicted?) What role does Starks play? (I mean, he is the interim Supt., as appointed by the mayor, now...does morality apply? I mean, I know the feds look just at federal statutes, but, does personal conduct mean anything, just asking)...What happens if the "nationwide search" for a new Supt. does not produce someone "da mare" can or will select?...whoever the new Supt. is, can or will he or she FINALLY ELIMINATE political interference within the CPD, and correct/rectify assignment and promotional imbalances and unfairness?
Stupid is as stupid does.
sos the end rip
Good luck...Jerry!
God bless!!
"If the Feds have nothing better to do than to put a case on a CPD officer, then things at the FBI are sadder than I'd heard.
All the SOS guys are innocent! Remember you heard it here first..."-Rue St. Michel
SCC would you mind doing your buddy a favor and get him to take his medication?
finigan should have ran to a far off country when he had the chance..All the rest of you s.o.s. jagoffs too. For too long they thought their shit didnt stink,,, well now , it stinks worse than anything else. Keep the swat team, every big city needs one, and dump all the rest of the patrolman to dist law enforcement where the manpower is really needed.
Lay off SOS dickhead. How about we get rid of the Detectives now because all we are going to remember is that Burge allegedly tortured confessions out of people, or how about we close the 022nd District because their tactical officers allegedly stole money out of the 025th District. Why didn't we close the 010th District after the Marquette Ten. Get over it, the bad apples are out of the unit. We can fill this whole blog with smut from the police department, the fire department, and every other department the city has. What good is that going to do, but hurt the good people that do work for the city. Save your nails for some other coffin, because we will continue to work our asses off upstairs, and play by the rules, quit trying to smear SOS.
SCC, Missy civilian here.
It is not "misconduct" as you guys want to brush stroke it that is disurbing but CRIMINAL behavior displayed by out-of-control cops that is what is being brought to light (deeds done in darkness)along with a wink and a nod by Internal Affairs and the da Mare in City Hall.
Can anyone explain this phenomena?
rot in hell jagoff
And who fronted for this fine Police Officer? what a joke
This department is a joke. I'm so glad to be on the short side of my job as an ofc for C.P.D. I hope the feds can take over and straiten things up! When someone asks me what I do for a living I tell the I'm a carpenter!!!
They got him on phone calls? He almost deserves it!
Who wore(whore) the wire on him?
Where's the guy who keeps trying to shame us for believeing there might be merit to the allegations brought against JF?
Was he the one helping JF set up the hit, or was he the target?
Oh, I know...the Feds set up JF because IAD could never catch him and the State has a week case that is going to be thrown out for prosecutorial misconduct. If you believe that, please put the pipe down.
It tickles me pink to think that all of the loyal, vocal, and dumb as shit JF supporters who went on this very same site and called us "asshat" "douchebag" and my personal favorite, calling us out at a bar "come here to Dugans and ask for the SOS Guys- I'll show you" are no sitting there still trying to drum up support for this guy, and you still think that it was all a big set up.
It just tickles me - how you could be so blind...
So, is this why other officers were supposed to keep their mouth shut? Not because he was such a GOOD friend to them, but rather that he would just kill them?
Any truth to the rumor that only Sergeant will be allowed to handcuff offenders from now on?
It's too much of a risk for mere P.O.s to place the bracelets, they might be cranked too tight, not duoble-locked, etc.
Heck, next thing you know P.O.s won't be able to carry Tasers, do money inventorys, etc...oh, wait
i worked in the same unit with that guy several years ago. he seemed like a good guy- i never would have guessed he'd end up like this. what a complete fuck up he turned out to be.
That's a good example of why sgt.'s should be required to have 10 years on the job before they can be promoted. Sgt.'s should of had that crew fired along time ago.How many victims didn't beef on that crew of corrupt cops.
S.O.S. should stand for
S.hithead children
O.f
S.upervisor's
There are 2 different dept's out there PLEASE,PLEASE HIRE AN OUTSIDER FOR SUPERINTENDANT!!!!!
Off topic....an incident occured late saturday nite in a niteclub when a husband and his wife were beaten by four men. The husband received 50+ stitches to his head and face because a bottle was used against him. Wife received a swollen eye from being struck mutiple times also. Two were in custody including the main aggressor. Felony charges were once again DENIED!. Once again drives home the point and shows the double standard that the ASA's put out there that you have to be a policeman to be charged with a felony. What a joke.
s.o.s. is a dead unit walking and will be finished for good when the most political capitol can be gained.
i heard they are thinking about a 5th company for t.r.u......that would put them at aprox. 400 men.
I think we need to chalk it up and start from scratch. This thing is only getting worse.
Maybe we can turn these rouge cops over to Jon Burge, for selective interrogation. Just, think of all the other things that coppers are doing that JB can come up with.
When Joe Madzinowski (sp), from gangs, was labeled the "most corrupt police officer in Chicago police department history" by the US attorney. Well. a new star has just risen. Joe got life without the possibilty of parole cannot imagine less for this guy.
JEROME MUST HAVE BEEN WATCHING "THE SHIELD".
As bad as Finnigan is I think that Fox was irresponsible in showing his residence and then writing the full address under the picture. His family is home alone and have nothing to do with any of this crap. How many bad guys want to hurt Finn? God knows the weapons are no longer present for his wife to protect themselves with. Just wrong.
So, what the hell is this P O Suzra
Bs?.........What the hell is going on in the CPD? Every week its some brand new shit going on. Maybe its time to look at another department, before outside department start thinking all cops here are damaged goods
HOW IS SGT. J. R. OF TRU NOT STRIPPED BUT OTHER FROM SOS ARE? THAT WAS HIS TEAM AND C. S. WAS HIS PARTNER. IS IT BECAUSE HIS GRANDPA/COMMANDER WAS CLINE’S BOSS/WACK OR IS HE COOPERATING? CAN SOMEONE ASK HIS DAD/LT ON 2ND WATCH IN 002 FOR THE ANSWER? THE LT THAT CLINE MADE MERITORIOUSLY. AT THE PROMOTION CLINE MADE A LONG SPEECH ABOUT HOW THE NEW LTS NEED TO KEEP THE INTERGRITY OF THE DEPARTMENT. CLINE EVEN SPOKE ABOUT THE LT FAMILY AS BEING AN INTEGRATIY POLICE FAMILY. CLINE WENT ON TO SPEAK ABOU THE LT SON SGT. J. R. AND SGT. J. R.’S WIFE/DIC J. B. CLINE DID NOT POINT OUT THAT DIC J. B. WORKS FOR CHIEF M. M. ONE MIGHT OF THOUGHT THAT THE LT WAS THE ONLY ONE BEING PROMOTED. IF ONLY MY FAMILY COULD HAVE THAT MUCH WACK, I MEAN THAT MUCH INTEGRITY. WE NEED FEDERALY OVERSITE
J.F. was a great cop at one time. I think when he was held hostage witgh a gun to his head during a botched liquor store robbery and J.F. was able to fatally wound the offender, he changed. There is a possiblity that this incident really screwed him up mentally. I am not sticking up for the guy nor would I want to but this may be the cause of his sudden change in behavior and the quest to grab everything he could. Things are always black and white!
Wow!!! Thanks guys, this is lot more interesting than commercial paper and banking law! Cheers!!;-)
9/27/2007 12:47:00 AM
You are a fucktard
I want to wish you SOS guys the best of luck! Things havent been the same for US either since we ripped off the Armenians(3 seasons ago)..........
I hope the reds clean up this dept. once and for all. Thereare a few exempt that need to go. ZWhat was the commander of SOS at the time now promoted to ADS of training role what did he know and when. Get rid of these wannabe wiseguys and then you have a leg to stand on when you go after th gangbangers on the job. A federal takeover of the CPD just might be a good thing. Get the criminals and the politics out of the job. I hope finnigan sings to the feds to help his sorry ass and takes down all the bosses that made this sh*tstain on the dept possible. with any luck daley and blago are soon to follow
Did you graduate grammer school?
If you did it had to have been a Chicago Public School.
To: 01:58, the only reason you want to kill off S.O.S and bring us to dist's is so you have more time to stay down on jobs, have more free pop at 7-11s, and take a far to long lunch. worry about your own ass, and stop talking bad about people you dont know.Oh I'm sorry I forgot your the real police...and you know everything.
Free J.F.!!!!!!!!
Is Jerry guilty... YES!
However, let's talk about the scum pussy he wanted to kill.
That fucking pussy is as guilty as Jerry and he's a rat and that makes him a good/innocent guy??
Hopefully JB (yeah that's right JB) gets as much time as Jerry!

If this isn't a joke you are a bigger piece of shit than finnegan.
I wonder who set jerry up? I bet there are alot of worried bosses and SOS boys worried that someone was working with the feds and wearing a wire. This is going to get worse before it gets better. We need an outsider to come clean up this mess and restore the dept.
Better hiring better training less politics.
I can tell you this with great authority Keith Herrea was the one who initiated the conversation and kept bringing it up to get him on tape with the wire he was wearing at Jerry’s house during the football game. And another thing I was also and still am a supporter that the State case was done that’s why they were trying to get the feds involved because it was going nowhere so they told jerry and Keith one of you has to come in because who ever it is will get the deal. So Keith wore the wire and there the entrapment. And the conversation did not happen on the phone it happened in the house with the wire .

You fail to realize that if the SOS folks go to districts they will work their way on to the cars they want, if not tact., gangs, incident cars etc. Not to mention seniority. Also, when a unit is dissolved the p.o.'s of that unit gt a supper bid. That is they get first crack at any openings regardless of seniority.
Now go change the oil in your hair.

HOW IS SGT. J. R. OF TRU NOT STRIPPED BUT OTHER FROM SOS ARE?
-----------------------------------
Did you ever think that maybe its because he didnt do anything! He was already gone and promoted when all this shit went down. You are a real jagoff to even bring this name into this post. He is one of the most stand up guys on this job and one of the best Sgts I have ever met. You are just a jealous prick and your post shows it. Who cares how his father was promoted, if it were merit then this is a case where somebody that deserves to be promoted got it.
HES STILL A HOTTIE !!!
People will do extraordinary things in extraordinary conditions. This man was put in a spot where he made some really bad decisions and now he will face the consiquences. The media posting his adress was wrong, his family should not be put at risk for his actions.
This is beginning to sound like some hollywood screenplay. When will it end?
info needed please..... can anyone tell me if the sos Christmas party is in division 10 or club fed this year?

Doesn't accountability start at the top?
Harry Truman said, The buck stops here.
In Chicago the leaders have their own version, The buck STARTS here.
Any time there is a scandal in any city department the management denies accountability. How many times have we heard from senior management, how am I supposed to know...? Well if the managers are not supposed to know what their subordinates are doing then why have any at all? Fire all bosses except the street level supervisors. They are the ones that get the shit dumped on them from above.
How an investigation is conducted is made at the senior manager level, not the investigator level.
Not condoning anything that JF alledgedly has done in this whole mess but 1 thing I can say is that he went out after the worst of the criminals. His crew took more guns and drugs off the streets than most of you fucks can only imagine in a wet dream. This was all well and good until the upper echelon brass decided to take away the safety net and JF and crew came tumbling down quicker than humpty dumpty. JF is done. His crew is done. The rat bastard ones who became snitches are, hopefully for their sake, done. The big injustice in this whole mess is where is the upward accountability. No bosses are being held accountable. This my fellow collegues is unacceptable.
Is it true that Frank Ratke has a bad case of insomnia since he retired? Maybe a fifth of whiskey before bedtime will help, sir.
Well boys and girls! Understand something IAD condoned this behavior,during my 25 years cover up for those with juice has been consistent. IAD is and has alway been an arm of the department.
OK, just so I have this straight: You're saying I should hold off on submitting that PAR form to go to SOS, right?
But, if I'm barely old enough to wipe my ass, I should consider TRU?
Risley IAD Commander let us hope he gets his, this prick always hammered the little PO with no connections, yet those guilty with connections walked away laughing at the little PO. (FEDS GET RISLEY)
I'm embarrassed to be cpd right now. We only hire the best and brightest, and "merit" people certainly are the best that our dept has to offer.

sure. there's this organization called the mob. it's closely tied to a city mayor who makes sure there are flowerpots and museums and pretty things downtown and in lincoln park so all the yuppies live under the delusion that all is well. In reality, hiring is lax and promotion is a complete joke. Most CPD are great, hardworking coppers; its just that they are never going to get promoted or let into a unit. Promotions and units are reserved for those connected few. Once they make it, they realize that they are connected and untouchable. Its really great. But don't worry, since 9-11 we are as prepared to protect you with dwindling numbers, broken computers, and a smile. Realx, CAPS will save us all!
We need an outsider as Superintendent. Also bring on Federal oversight of this Department.
Well well well...the SOS train is comming to a end! we could use the man power in patrol to take calls and have back up on the streets, I know we are just patrol officers and not the brave and bold SOS, but we could use help. Just take calls for service and do the right thing and leave with your 70% move to Florida. This is only a job nothing more remember that! We are no better then the guy who picks up the trash on mondays.
This is only getting big time media coverage because it is contract time. Bad cops have been sticking people and going to jail for years. It has nothing to do with SOS being a bad unit, only bad people being on the job and making a bad example that some people would like to paint all of us as.
Who wore(whore) the wire on him?
9/27/2007 06:19:00 AM
Dude are you serious? You wouldn't want someone to wear a wire if someone was talking about killing you???
....quit trying to smear SOS.
9/27/2007 02:03:00 AM
And you, come on how can they not end the unit. Next time you go into court and tell them you are from SOS you think they will be impressed? I think not, they will think "Maybe we can sue this guy for the case he put on my client?" NO CREDIBLILITY. The Unit SOS and everything to do with it has to go.
I, personally have no sympathy for Finnigan or his family. He put himself in this jackpot and he can rot in prison for the rest of his life for all I care.
If his wife had any brains, she would divorce him and take the kids as far away from him as possible. Sell everything and leave him hanging alone.
This guy is a menace to society. He is dangerous and a threat not only to civilians, but now to us. Fuck him and the horse he road in on.
When do you think Peter Francis Juracsi or Erick Martin and Associates are going to start putting out commercials regarding JF?
"Where you arrested by Jerome Finnegan..."
Before this Jerry had support becuse their was "doubt" with this tape he looks more like Abatte. No excuse no hope. You guys just keep making us look worse and worse.
anyone who wants federal oversight does not know what it is. part of it is saying goodbye to a lot of your contractual rights. you think you have paperwork now you will drown in it. you get the feds in here you will think being a personal concern is a good day at work.
guys like finnigan have always been on the job and always will be. just watch your ass and don't overreact to all the media police haters because if you do you may as well just be a chickenshit from 35th street.
I am flabbergasted, this is as bad as it gets.
All this while we are trying to get a contract. Thanks for fucking all of us honest guys, asshole. I hope you rot in prison.
Thanks all the former SOS bosses and supervisors for letting these assholes run wild. Of course they won't be held to account.
Please end this fucking "elite" unit!

Lets just hope and pary they get the bosses, exempts,sgts,lts and the rest! JERRY SING LIKE A PARAKEET SING TO THE SKY FUCK THEM ALL THEY BELONG IN PRISON ALSO!
Don't worry about SOS, we have Commander W. Green to clean things up...
Seeing as CPD will never discipline the bosses/supervisors of SOS, I for one am happy the feds are now involved.
Let's clean house of all these assholes. It'll get uglier but then we can move on and try to appear honest in the eyes of the citizens.
Fuck, we are gonna get hosed on this next contract.

-----------------------------------An off-duty Chicago Police officer physically and verbally assaulted three women -- punching one and shoving a gun into the stomach of another -- during a traffic altercation on the Stevenson Expy. in June, according to a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday.
Officer William Szura allegedly referred to the women as d---- and b------.
The lawsuit claims Szura attacked the women because of their "sexual orientation,'' and alleges Illinois troopers who responded to a 911 call failed to investigate.
The incident happened June 24 as Kelly Fuery, Debra Sciortino and Nicole Tomaskovic were driving home after attending the gay Pride Parade in Chicago.
Chicago Police Department spokeswoman Monique Bond said Szura remained on duty while the matter was under investigation.
Cook County commissioners may be poised to approve a sales tax hike next week, but not one of them can say exactly how that money would then be spent.
That's because County Board President Todd Stroger has yet to present a 2008 budget, even as he's quietly rallying support for the tax.
"I've never seen a government leader ask for a tax increase to pay for a budget that doesn't exist," said Commissioner Forrest Claypool. "It's unprecedented."

You are an Idiot! You are one of the reason that some districts are in back logs everyday. I can tell your an aggressive cop. Get your 70% and leave? We are no better than a garbage man? Last time I checked a garbage man wasn't shot at just because he's a garbage man. Police get shot at just for wearing the uniform dipsh*t! If you think this is only a job you need to become a garbage man. You'd be the same guy bitching that the SOS guys newly assigned to your district just took the car you were assigned to because you weren't doing shit!
I can tell you this with great authority Keith Herrea was the one who initiated the conversation and kept bringing it up to get him on tape with the wire he was wearing at Jerry’s house during the football game. And another thing I was also and still am a supporter that the State case was done that’s why they were trying to get the feds involved because it was going nowhere so they told jerry and Keith one of you has to come in because who ever it is will get the deal. So Keith wore the wire and there the entrapment. And the conversation did not happen on the phone it happened in the house with the wire .
**
The ASA's are morons that's why their case was done. Don't think they aren't influenced by politics as well. Just as the bosses & IAD covered it, the ASA's office was trying to do the same.
What I like the most is they are going to look into IAD and how they handled this stuff. They won't be able to justify this one. Exposed!
Finnegan should of done what Sgt. Eddie Hicks, Area 4 VC, did when the Feds indicted him.
He jumped bond and moved to Costa Rica and immediately married a Costa Rican lady and fathered a child. When the Feds finally caught up with him the Costa Rican authorities declined extradition because of his marriage and child based on their Constitution.
On top of it he is collecting his pension because he was never convicted. The Feds cannot try you in absentia.
So much for justice..
Interesting how only one of the Chicago papers (Sun-Times) reported the name of the "trick" (Keith Herrera) who wore the wire. I would like to hear that conversation.....can you say power of suggestion!
WELL JER, HOPE YOU SING LIKE A BIRD NOW TOO, MAYBE ALL THAT BRASS THAT JOINED IN, OH, I MEAN CONDEMNED YOU WILL GET THEIRS!!! GOD BLESS.
For those of you hoping for "Federal oversight", you should read what that would entail before you advocate going from the frying pan to the fire. Read the L.A. consent decree in it's entirety, then let's see if you feel the same way.

fuck these sos guys-not all of them-just the greedy ones-the ones that are charged and the ones singing like birds to save their own skin. fuck them all -those greedy bastards. they made a hard job 10 times harder than it was before. we're all supposed to feel sorry for them and assume they're innocent til proven otherwise. thanks to them we now have gps. what little perks we had are gone. and federal oversight of cpd is coming. thanks alot u greedy fucks i hope it was worth it
J.F. is a dirty cop and will get what he deserves...I think it's all so funny that now K.H. is so scared he rats out J.F.... but to K.H. and the rest off the boys including LT. J.B. it was so great when you walked around thinking you were the best and stealing the cash... what goes around comes around...let Fitzgerald get all the bosses for covering up the beefs and court deviations..who's laughing now
There are 2 different dept's out there PLEASE,PLEASE HIRE AN OUTSIDER FOR SUPERINTENDANT!!!!!

Yeah dumbass, your great authority is the SUNTIMES!!!! It was in the paper this morning naming him. Nice try Dumbass.
did anyone read the indictment? what was his act of furtherance, i'm definitely not backing him, I didn't care for him just seeing what an arrogant asshole he was which was before I even knew his name, but just saying you are going to do something without an act of furtherance is not conspiracy.did he ask for a # or something? this case maybe kind of weak

The FEDS go after us because it's hell of a lot easier than some shithead. We have real jobs, cars and homes are in our name, etc. We're a walking paper trail.
SOS is not being disbanded. Stop the rumor already. Yes, I know, because of JF there will be a new G.O. on is is against department regulations to put a hit on another copper. Thus, sending moral to an all time low. If you have low moral, you are doing this job wrong. I've been on for 20 years and I never had a bad day. Worked in 011, 014, and 015. Stop whinning.
THOSE PHONES ARE WIRED.
OH 2 THE OFFICERS THAT CO-OPERATED I HOPE THEY DONT THINK THEY ARE OFF THE HOOK ONCE THE FED ARE DONE WITH WITNESSES GUESS WHO COMES NEXT?
THE IRS, UNPAID TAXES ON STOLEN MONEY.
ALSO THERE PHONES ARE LIKELY TAPPED.
THOSE BOSSES THAT THINK THEY GOT AWAY WITH THIS... THEY JUST DONT KNOW ON REAL BIG CASES YOU ARREST IN BATCHES ONCE THESE GUY ARE CONVICTED AND ARE IN THE JOINT FOR A FEW MONTHS THEY WILL SELL THERE MOTHERS OUT. IT IS LIKELY THAT THOSE BOSSES PHONES ARE TAPPED ALSO

Did you ever think that maybe its because he didnt do anything! He was already gone and promoted when all this shit went down. You are a real jagoff to even bring this name into this post. He is one of the most stand up guys on this job and one of the best Sgts I have ever met. You are just a jealous prick and your post shows it. Who cares how his father was promoted, if it were merit then this is a case where somebody that deserves to be promoted got it.
YOU MUST BE FAMILY, OR YOU WOULD SAY THAT ABOUT THIS GUY. ANYONE WHO HAS SPENTMORE THAN 5 MINUTES WITH HIM WILL TELL YOU SO. HE WOULD SELL HIS MOTHER TO SAVE HIS SKIN...
Well this is uncomfortable (pause ... heavy sigh) ... someone tell a joke...
I took my medication and immediately recognized the mistake: COLDTYPE posted a comment.
I thought he was banned???
God bless all the Police!
Supporters of JF,Unreal. Remember the oath. Obviously not. You show your lack of experience, when the Fed gets you it's signed and sealed. We are given the powers to uphold the laws of this State, not when it suits any alterior motives. The supporters of this Criminal that call themselves the police share in making this Department a sad and corrupt entity.
I think it's Bush's fault
What do Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton say?
I heard a certian 26yr Veteran now Sgt. of 023 Tact can't read or determine a written order on whether or not to be in uniform or starting times for the Cubs detail. I believe there were certian instructions "Underlined". If they don't clinch it, resume regular duties at regular time in C.D. Read the order to the fullest and understand it. How hard is it for there Meritoriously promoted people? He ordered the day gang team to show up at 1600 in uniform eventhough the Cubs haven't clinched even a turd.
Question- does anybody know what it would take for the Feds to audit CPD? To look at the results of hiring, promotion, and appointments to the units? I think its time that some books were opened up, and we can see exactly who is who, where they are, and how they got there. If the city is legit, then they shouldn't have a problem with this. But something is wrong when you are a beat copper (not me) that has military experience as a marine sniper and he cannot even get an AUDITION to our SWAT team... There are guys over at swat that are awesome coppers, and there are guys in SWAT that couldn't hit a barnwall with a tractor.... Lets cut the fat before this dept is Harvey North.
Just check out this guys pictures.....look at all of them..

Keith Herrera is a pussy ass RAT.........
IF YOU WANT TO WORK PLAIN CLOTHES BUT DON'T WANT TO GET IN TROUBLE JUST GO WORK FOR THE 019 DISTRICT GANG TEAM. OUR SGT IS A JOKE.
And you, come on how can they not end the unit. Next time you go into court and tell them you are from SOS you think they will be impressed? I think not, they will think "Maybe we can sue this guy for the case he put on my client?" NO CREDIBLILITY. The Unit SOS and everything to do with it has to go.
9/27/2007 11:20:00 AM
----------------------------------
You're exactly right. the unit has no credibility. I don't care how many good coppers are still on the unit. It's beyond tainted and needs to be disbanded.

Lay off SOS dickhead. How about we get rid of the Detectives now because all we are going to remember is that Burge allegedly tortured confessions out of people, or how about we close the 022nd District because their tactical officers allegedly stole money out of the 025th District. Why didn't we close the 010th District after the Marquette Ten. Get over it, the bad apples are out of the unit. We can fill this whole blog with smut from the police department, the fire department, and every other department the city has. What good is that going to do, but hurt the good people that do work for the city. Save your nails for some other coffin, because we will continue to work our asses off upstairs, and play by the rules, quit trying to smear SOS.
SOS has been corrupt since day one. Covered up since day one!!! Some of us have been on the job since its inception and have seen it from the beginning. Not saying all are dirty there, but even you have to admit - there was NO supervision there and officers were allowed to run wild doing whatever it is they were doing. SOG was corrupt, Gangs North, South and West were corrupt and it just continued at SOS. If I were assigned to SOS I would be looking for a place to go so I could continue to be the good, honest hard working officer you claim you are. Why would you even want to be considered part of that horrible corrupt unit. No offense to those officers who do honest work - just take a look at the bosses that have passed through there. There lies the problem. Good luck, stay safe and stay honest.
Not condoning anything that JF alledgedly has done in this whole mess but 1 thing I can say is that he went out after the worst of the criminals. His crew took more guns and drugs off the streets than most of you fucks can only imagine in a wet dream. This was all well and good until the upper echelon brass decided to take away the safety net and JF and crew came tumbling down quicker than humpty dumpty. JF is done. His crew is done. The rat bastard ones who became snitches are, hopefully for their sake, done. The big injustice in this whole mess is where is the upward accountability. No bosses are being held accountable. This my fellow collegues is unacceptable.
9/27/2007 10:21:00 AM
This is a seriously warped poster...
1. You can call him Jerry Finnigan instead of J.F. (no need to hide, we know who he is).
2. He did not go after the serious criminals to prosecute them, he went after them to rob them because they were the one with the big money (that he took and didn't inventory). I notice that you mentioned all the drugs and all the guns he recovered but you never mentioned anything about the money he should have recovered. I have never seen a large drug or gun recovery that did not also include a large amount of cash.
3. The people wearing wires are not rat bastards...they are simply people who may have done something wrong that was not really that serious to begin with but they are now being dragged into more and more serious crimes in order to cover up the initial crimes that they shouldn't have committed in the first place. At what point would you suggest they jump from Jerry's sinking ship?? In my opinion they should never have been on the ship but they certainly should have jumped and worn the wire a lot sooner. If they had done so, this mess would not be anywhere near as serious as it is today. If one of these "rats" had ratted out years ago, maybe Jerry would be getting a suspension and they would all still be on the job. By waiting until now, they will go to jail and Jerry will go for the rest of his life...fuck him for what he has done to the rest of us honest coppers trying to do the right thing day in and day out.
4. You make him sound like a hero....he wanted to murder police officers!!! Let me repeat that for you because it obviously is not sinking into your head yet...HE WANTED TO MURDER POLICE OFFICERS!! Anybody who helps to convict him is a hero in my book so stop referring to them as rat bastards.
Thank you and good day!
J.F. was a great cop at one time. I think when he was held hostage witgh a gun to his head during a botched liquor store robbery and J.F. was able to fatally wound the offender, he changed. There is a possiblity that this incident really screwed him up mentally. I am not sticking up for the guy nor would I want to but this may be the cause of his sudden change in behavior and the quest to grab everything he could. Things are always black and white!

This post brings to mind our "Professional Counseling Service/EAP." Sixty-seven comments into this post and no one addresses their role (or lack of it) in terms of troubled/rouge/ill/disfunctional police.
A multi-million dollar hit on the police budget and where are they in all of this? Do supervisors send anyone to that program? Does anyone in the program attempt to intervene (after someone has a gun to their head)? Do they do anything beyond their two day stint at the academy? Is anyone evaluating their effectiveness? If they are an "Employee Assistance Program" who are they assisting, crossing guards?
Finnegan is a jagoff but remember he is putting his family through hell. His son has to live with this shit. Putting his home address on Fox is totally unprofessional and puts his family in danger. WTF!!!!!!!!!!
Commander of SOS had complete knowledge of all CR#'s in his unit. He was aware of all court deviations and the numerous other complaints. The system broke down because management had knowledge and ignored the warning signs. Let a beat officer miss on court and he/she is punished. But who wrote off hundreds of court deviations on felony narcotic arrests? IAD let clout rule and they covered up. I hope JF cooperates and tell all about the bosses who knew.
What boss put JF up for meritorious sgt in the past?
JF WAS NEVER REALLY TOUCHED BECAUSE HE WAS FRIENDS WITH FAT PHIL
I can tell you this with great authority Keith Herrea was the one who initiated the conversation and kept bringing it up to get him on tape with the wire he was wearing at Jerry’s house during the football game. And another thing I was also and still am a supporter that the State case was done that’s why they were trying to get the feds involved because it was going nowhere so they told jerry and Keith one of you has to come in because who ever it is will get the deal. So Keith wore the wire and there the entrapment. And the conversation did not happen on the phone it happened in the house with the wire .
9/27/2007 09:52:00 AM
Read the indictment, you piece of shit. He got nailed on the phone AND with a wire. Entrapment my ass. I don't care how many guns he took off the street in the past, he ended up being worse than any gangbanger! I just can't believe some of you are still supporting this asshole. So you are actually condoning murdering YOUR PARTNER if he tells the truth?!?!? What the fuck man...what have we become? How can you possibly look at yourself as one of "the good guys"?
I gotta get the fuck off this job and out of this city. I'm disgusted to be associated with all of this.
I just read the FBI affidavit on Finnigan's recorded "paint job" conversations over at Second City Sarge.
If the record is accurate, Finnigan has a shot at an INSANITY DEFENSE--the guy is crazier than a sack full of ferrets. At worst, he wanted to have as many as five ex-cops whacked in serial hits.
I understand that at one time he was a pretty good street copper. WTF happened to this guy? Was he always a rotten apple?

Internal Investigations of all sorts need to be handled by the FED in order to keep the nepitism, cronyism, favoritism and discrimination from influencing the objectivity and fairness of the investigations.
I'm sure when these officers first started dipping their hands into the cookie jar they never imagined it would turn out like this.
Hooray for all the pukes who knew this shit was going on and looked the other way! Way to go team players! Of course it would have been an uphill battle and a career ender to speak up against the regime of supervisors and their entitled offspring. Wow. I wonder who Finnegan made his forts call to? Who was his clout into SOS to begin with?
Retort to Missy CIvilian-
There are plenty of books filled with theory and experience to answer your question. Google Police Corruption- you'll find plenty. But since most police supervisors can't read- they don't know how to handle the shit when it comes up.
HEADS UP! The Feds ARE looking at every beef against SOS since the beginning of time. Between JAIL with jf and pulling my fucken pants down at Daley and his legions, FUCK DALEY...not a boss for long...

Is Jerry guilty... YES!
However, let's talk about the scum pussy he wanted to kill.
That fucking pussy is as guilty as Jerry and he's a rat and that makes him a good/innocent guy??
Hopefully JB (yeah that's right JB) gets as much time as Jerry!
9/27/2007 09:45:00 AM
If you're on the job, I'm ashamed you wear the uniform.
The sun times says who wore the wire and if you can find your ass with both hands, you can figure out who the target was. Any truth to the rumor the target lives very near a retired CPD man who signed on as a top aide with King Richard shortly after his 63rd b-day?
boys and girls, you're reading assignments are as follows:
SERPICO
THE LUCIFER EFFECT: Understanding Hoe Good People Turn Evil
WALKING WITH THE DEVIL The Police Code of Silence
COPSHOCK Handling Posttraumatic stress disorder
Just wondering....
For all the good work he has done over the years, do you think the Feds will at least let him wear all his ribbons on his DOC garbs??
This shit looks like entrapment. It sucks. If the bosses didnt try to hide the truth when it first came to light, it woulda been done by now. Now - we look worse than if they would have laid the spanking down when it first happened. YAY bosses. But whats a boss to do when they are a puppet for the Sup and Daley. The job you should do vs. the promotion you are promised are not even on the scale.
Regardless who wore a wire, of if the calls were recorded, or KH is saving his own ass.
The fact of the matter remains, he's talking about KILLING OTHER OFFICERS. I don't care why, who, or what??? HE IS TALKING ABOUT KILLING A HUMAN BEING WHO HE ONCE WORKED ALONGSIDE.
They themselves got themselves into this matter because they had a "fearless leader" who gave them the idea they were all untouchable. And I wouldn't be surprised if that same "fearless leader" is doing the shuck and jive dance to save his ass.
The idea he's talking aloud about KILLING someone should send a shiver down your spine, and be a wake up call to know HE will stop at nothing to save his own ass.
You can act like turning states evidence is a horrible horrible injustice, but KILLING A PERSON to save your ass is a bit unsettling to me. But then again, I was never "the real police" and will never amount to very much either. (ie, I have no police family or any clout).
absolutely ridiculous. I have to take it as a good thing that there was some support for the idiot before he was locked up by the feds... means that it isnt the entire unit, just a few moron, greedy, dirty cops that actually had a lot of people, even co-workers fooled.
SOS is just going to be renamed, like when it was SOG and the shit hit the fan, and the guys that arent dirty (which is 99.8%) are going to go back to locking up bad guys just like they were doing before.
My guess is its going to be called SRU so they can ride the coattails of all those hard working TRU guys and gals.
(that was tongue in cheek, but you have to admit,there's a lot of truth to it... they are out there in the ghetto.. working.. and because they like the job)
Oh, I know...the Feds set up JF because IAD could never catch him and the State has a week case
Get it right Boy IAD was not trying to get him, they had been covering for them. HELLO
This guy is planning on having multiple cops killed. Some just as dirty as him, but some that are clean and got swept up. What would you do if your initials were the ones he wanted "painted"? Do you think those that testified are still rats or were they trying to save their jobs/lives? Finnigan is a gangster and gets what he deserves. Funny thing about this is he will finally show up to court on a case he's involved in.
J.F. was a great cop at one time. I think when he was held hostage witgh a gun to his head during a botched liquor store robbery and J.F. was able to

Truer words have never been spoken.
This is as bad as it gets,,,when a cop orders a hit on a cop. Sounds like fiction but I would bet my next check that its true.
I would hope to GOD, that whomever has the list of the "targets" would make the persons named on Jerry's list aware of the possibilities their lives may be in jeopardy.
If a man is having a conversation of KILLING officers and it was taped, perhaps that was not the first conversation the man had had, and quite possibly officers lives are in harms way already.
Having worked in the DC's office in the past, I can say that the DC or UC is the last person to sign off on the cover sheet of all CR's. The Commander of S.O.S. had to notice a pattern with these guys. How can he not? How about the Sgt.'s and Lt.'s that concluded the investigations. Where is the accountability this department preaches about all the time? Don't we have these accountability meetings quarterly? If P.O.'s are to be held accountable for every action we take during our tour of duty, shouldn't the bosses also? After all, it was during their tour of duty that these CR's were signed regarding all the illegal activity. As a high ranking commander in this department shouldn't he have some training in the detection of criminal patterns? Who is protecting all those that ignored these patterns?
Ya Know...Now Tony Abatte doesn't look so bad now. All he did was push around a bartender. Can I exchange my Finnegan benefit ticket to an Abatte one?
what do you tell youre kids
SOS IS COMING TO AN END, SOS WILL BE DISBANDED,BLAH..BLAH..BLAH. FIRST OFF EVERY OFFICER IN SOS IS HARD WORKING, MAKING GOOD ARRESTS NO EXCELLENT ARRESTS. THE MAJORITY OF US STILL BRING IN QUALITY NOT QUANTITY WHICH SOME BOSSES LIKE TO SEE. SOME OF THE NEW GUYS COMIN IN WILL LEARN A 1 BAG PINCH IS BULLSHIT. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR REGARDING A POST OR 2 OK WE GET DISBANDED, NOW U HAVE GUYS W/SENORITY MOVING U ASIDE, GUYS GET ON TACT AND GANG TEAMS YOUR PRECIOUS BEAT CAR WILL NOW BE MAND BY AN SOS OFFICER AND YOU GO CRYING TO THE BOSSES "I WANT MY CAR BACK" SILENCE IS GOLDEN KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT WE ALL DO OUR JOBS WELL. STOP PAINTING SOS WITH THAT SAME BRUSH. I COULD VOUCH FOR EVERY OFFICER THERE. THE ELEMENTS ARE GONE AND DONE FOR. STOP WHINNING ABOUT 153. LETS STOP BASHING EACH OTHER AND TRY TO STAY TOGETHER.
never mind my question about his act of furtherance...WOW! Lets get one thing straight the only RATS comment on here that I found was referring to IAD not people testifying against the Criminals! God almighty why do they insist on making us all sound like we are a bunch of fucking caged animals!
if you gaze down just to your left of the comment box you will see the only time rat was used here as of my post.
Keith Herrera is a pussy ass RAT.........had to flip what a bitch..
ITS FUNNY ALL OF YOU THAT TALK SHIT ABOUT JERRY FINNIGAN ARE ANONYMOUS BUT I BET YOU WOULDNT SAY HALF THE SHIT YOU DO ON HERE BECAUSE YOU WOULD GET YOUR ASS BEAT DOWN...
Let's keep it positive out here.
The Feds haven't caught anywhere NEAR the idiots in this city that need to be shipped out, and we're not talking just w/i the CPD but some of these morons that have driven this city into the ground.
Many of us know you bust your asses out here and dealing with a lot of garbage. Keep the faith...
Props to any cop who wears a wire and gets adirty cop fired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How blind are all of you who are sticking up for this evil waste of life? He is going to jail and may he rot there for all the evil he has done.
What the hell happened on the NW side tonight? Home invasion, fill me in, that is a little too close to home.
And you, come on how can they not end the unit. Next time you go into court and tell them you are from SOS you think they will be impressed?

Maybe we're scared that he's going to put a hit on us.
LESSON #1 HOW TO BE A SERGEANT!
First you need to study and pass the test or be heavier then WHALE SHIT. Next you have to be able to talk to another cop without coming across as an asshat. You need to be able to understand that if you treat your guys good then they will work hard. If your Lt. screams at you becasue the numbers are low you have to positively influence or encourage your guys to do better. If you have some bullshit come down on you then you don't pass that along to your guys you turn it into a positive situation. The biggest problem with Sgt's today is that theu don't know how to lead. You are suppose to motivate your guys to work hard and keep them positive. Instead we have Sgt's that yell and scream at his guys and spin all kinds of negative shit at them. Sgt's are now scaring P.P's into working hard by saying ,"the Lt. is pissed that your numbers are low" or "the commander wants to know why our arrests are way down" or "the Deputy sent a memo and we follow it or you will get dumped". Come on!!!!!!!! You can't threaten P.O's into working harder, especialy when we don't have a CONTRACT or SUPT. or a SGT. who knows how to lead.
On top of it he is collecting his pension because he was never convicted. The Feds cannot try you in absentia.
So much for justice..
9/27/2007 01:11:00 PM
Something doesn't fit.
The feds wouldn't let him collect the pension. They would freeze his assets as he is a fugitive under indictment. What's he going to do, sue them? He would have to come back for the trial.
Nice try bone head.
Renee AKA leomemorial, SHUT UP and mind your own business.
All this we and our BS. You are not the Police and never will be. And I sure wish you would stop refrering to OUR Memorial as if you have anything to do with it.

I know the solution to CPD's corruption problem:
A streaming video about personal responsibility and integrity from CPD Exempts.
This will be broadcast live from their cells at the supermax prison in Marion.
How many times does the CPD have to mistake the same mistake?
The boss demands numbers and overlooks or condones BS police work. The Police Officers get caught.
The boss throws the POs under the bus and denies any responsibility.
The boss knows everything about the PO's activity when it comes to the BS DOC meeting and his own merit promotion, but when the shit hits the fan, the boss is completely surprised.
This pattern must be stopped. NOW!

To 9:41 PM: Why are you anonymous?
TO THE POSTERS OF:
"SCC, Missy civilian here. It is not "misconduct" as you guys want to brush stroke it that is disurbing but CRIMINAL behavior displayed by out-of-control cops that is what is being brought to light (deeds done in darkness)along with a wink and a nod by Internal Affairs and the da Mare in City Hall.
Can anyone explain this phenomena?"
AND TO THE POSTER OF:
"And who fronted for this fine Police Officer? what a joke
9/27/2007 05:39:00 AM"
"Who fronted?" The answer of course is Frank Radtke,retired ADS. For years Radtke took care of this out of control idiot. Radtke, who should of been fired for DUI numerous times in a "company" car, but not fired because of his close relationship with the mayor.
You see, young Missy Civilian, when a person is a public official, he's held at a higher level of accountability than others. The reason for thi is the trust factor; if a public official, such as a police officer, commits criminal acts, it takes away the trust of government by the little people.
To: Missy civilian and all you newsmedia reading this,I hope you take a good look at this department and the "Clout Babies" who didn't fear IAD and OPS because their clout would get them out of trouble.

Holy shit son, did you smoke some bad crack?
I'M a sergeant and I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ANYTHING. By the way, OUR CONTRACT Expired 30 June 2007. Perhaps the reason I don't give a shit.
These are the facts about Jerry. He took a ton of dope and guns off the streets. He did. I worked with him in the early 90's. He arrested a lot of murder suspects too. I was never his partner back then, but made arrests with him, did warrants with him. I still know some of his old partners. Now of us every saw him take a dime, or break the law. He loved being the police, and he was a great cop. I'm not defending him today, but people who worked with him then are shocked about these allegations. He made his bed, he has to lie in it. Fine. But every boss he worked for on tact teams, and in SOS loved him. He produced baby, and they love numbers. They did not care about CR numbers as long as he kept bringing in good arrests. Shame on them too.

AKA FRAUD!!
I have some time on-the-job, live within my means, drive older cars, buy my cloths on-sale (usually every other year.)
I seldom drink, don't frequent bars or nightclubs, don't smoke or gamble, and stay in on my nights off (with the family).
To those who think J.F. is innocent, you guys are nuts!
All the proof I need:
*His house is much nicer than mine.
*His cars are much nicer than mine.
*He has more toys than me.(I saw him in front of the "twisted spoke" in 013, a few summers ago on his custom "west coast" chopper. It had to cost $30,000-$40,000.)
*He takes more vacations than me(Those guy's were always taking trips,Las Vegas etc.)
Oh, yeah..He was in court a lot and worked side jobs..or he has money in the family!
Keep drinking the kool-aid if you believe that shit!
Just like Hillary Clinton turning $10,000 in cattle futures into $300,000 on her first trade.
I can tell dirty cops just by their spending habits!
WAKE UP!
SCC: THE THREE WOMEN ON CHANNEL 5 NEWS LAST NIGHT LIED. THE STATE POLICE WERE VERY THOUROUGH WITH THEIR INVESTIGATION. 911 TAPES DON'T LIE. THEY WERE SAVED IN ACCORDANCE WITH STATE POLICE POLICY. ONE OF YOU CPD IAD INVESTIGATORS NEEDS TO REQUEST THE 911 TAPES FROM THE STATE AND GET A TAPE OF THE CHANNEL 5 INTERVIEW. THIS OFF DUTY P.O. HAS A GREAT LAWSUIT. THE OFF DUTY P.O. DID IDENTIFY HIMSELF AS A CHICAGO POLICE OFFICER AND HE WAS BEING ATTACKED WHEN THE FIRST STATE POLICE CAR ARRIVED.
I GUESS THE ONLY COPPER THAT HAS GOT A CONTRACT SO FAR IS THE ONE WHO HAD A HIT PUT OUT ON HIM?
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?
A little comic relief from the insanity nothing more. Take it as such & mellow out guys. Please.
just read the indictment and it sounds like that guy is not only stupid but crazy...great now the next time I want some work done around the house "hi how much will it cost to side my garage?
WOWO buddy do you mean side your garage or SIDE YOUR GARAGE?
To all of you polce officers out there who understand why KH did this, great! This is to the rest of you goofs that dont:
Jerry was going to kill (2) people! Can you comprehend that? Kill as in dead, as in gone forever. Both of these guys have kids. Both were once friends of both KH and Jerry. Enough is enough, the guy is out of control. KH just ended this for everyone. Give him a break, at least he had the balls to stand up for what we ALL know was the right thing to do! I am sure you fucks that are talking shit about him are just jealous little fags. He was a dam good cop and was caught up with the wrong guy! His CR's came when JF was around. Cut him some slack! As far as being a rat....nah he is doing the right thing, if he was a true rat, he would have given Jerry up 1 fucking year ago-DUMBASS, he didn't but he knew when enough was enough! So go fuck yourself! Be safe
To whoever wanted to know if Jerry Finnegan was ever a good cop...yes, he was one of the best~I have have known him for years and he was fearless. I don't condone what he did and can't believe what he got caught up in, but yes, he was an excellent policeman at one time.
SCC, how can you even hope this piece of horse shit enjoyed himself? Why even hope anything well for this asshole? Hope this piece of garbage becomes Ray Ray's bitch for a long time before getting it rammed up his ass. This MF is the biggest piece of shit in the history of the CPD. I have no pity for him. And if he never thought about his family..if he never cared, if he never felt sorry for his family, why should I?
I'm retired now. I never liked jerry finnigan for any reason other than his big mouth and he always reminded me of a con man. The rest I never knew, but if this Keith H wears a wire? Thank God. He was stealing money and he was apparently OK with that, but not OK with murdering people. That makes sense to me. What makes sense to me also is I would stay far away from these people, calling themselves police, that are defending jerry finnigan. Do they have some kind of agenda with him? They cannot be trusted to be honest, I'd be afraid to work with any of them under the circumstances. The way this guy talks I have to ask myself, Has this guy already killed people? because he talks like a stone cold killer.
If a tree falls in a Forest does the Forrest hear a sound or does it need to be told in a memo what it did or did not hear?
4. You make him sound like a hero....he wanted to murder police officers!!! Let me repeat that for you because it obviously is not sinking into your head yet...HE WANTED TO MURDER POLICE OFFICERS!! Anybody who helps to convict him is a hero in my book so stop referring to them as rat bastards.
These are not police officers. They WERE police offficers.
Now they ARE CRIMMINALS.
as far as innocent till proven guilty; I read the complaint and I dont care who wore a wire. They conspired to commit murder or at the least had knowledge of a conspiracy to commit murder. If they ARE police officers they should hace at the least reported it. Screw them! After reading the complaint FINS wife almost sounds like a party to the crime, and if so srew her to.
SOS if chock full of egotistical, self absorbed pompus wanna be tough guys like Kieth was. Why anyone would want to associate themselves with the unit title is nuts. So do yourselves a favor a leave now especially with your new "Pimpin aint easy" t-shirt wearing (while at work)commander.
You can't threaten P.O's into working harder, especialy when we don't have a CONTRACT or SUPT. or a SGT. who knows how to lead.
------------------------------------#1 YOU STILL GET PAID DESPITE NO CONTRACT
#2 HAVING "NO" SUPT. HAS NO OUTCOME IF YOU WORK OR NOT
#3 HAVING A SGT. WHO KNOWS HOW TO LEAD IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT. HAVING A SGT. THAT TAKES CARE OF YOU, AND YOU IN RETURN (WORKING) IS THE BOTTOM LINE. ANY GOOD SGT. CAN MANAGE THIS, EVEN IN THE FACE OF ALL THE ASS KISSING/DON'T DO WHAT I DO/DO WHAT I SAY BOSSES. GO LOOK IN 008 TACT.....SGT'S WHO STOLE THE WORLD, NOW WANT "RESULTS"....WHO YOU CRAPPIN???????
FuC@$ That Puto! A Dirty cop is a criminal, don't blame IAD Fuc% him he was plotting to kill his friend, This whole thing makes me sick! I don't know about the rest of you but I can feel my eye swelling from the black eye this leaves on the rest of us. I cant count how many times I have almost got killed over the past five years but this asshole makes everything we do on a daily basis count for nothing. fUC$& him!
It tickles me pink to think that all of the loyal, vocal, and dumb as shit JF supporters who went on this very same site and called us "asshat" "douchebag" and my personal favorite, calling us out at a bar "come here to Dugans and ask for the SOS Guys- I'll show you" are no sitting there still trying to drum up support for this guy, and you still think that it was all a big set up.
It just tickles me - how you could be so blind...

Before you break your arm patting yourself on the back, jerkoff, it's called innocent until proven guilty. But you must of been there for all of the complaints or maybe you beleive everything you read in the paper. Either way, you're a stroke and you sound like an idiot.
I gotta get the fuck off this job and out of this city. I'm disgusted to be associated with all of this.

Bye, bye. Here's a Kleenex, bitch.
To 08:42, what you say about exempt review of completed CR investigations is correct; however, on-going criminal investigations of this type are handled by IAD Corrupt & Confidential, State’s Attorney, Feds, etc. in secret. I can tell you for a fact, the supervisors in SOS, from sergeants to the commanders, were not made aware of these allegations. To inform the supervisors could have compromised the investigation.
well, all the bosses of sos may have something to worry about except maybe JD.. the reason that JD got dumped from sos was because everytime JD would tell finnegan to do something, finnegan would run to radke and cry about it. finally, JD was fed up with finnegans attitude and finnegan cried enough to get moved to the airport...by radke. once jd left...or was dumped because radke said so, finnegan was able to come back to sos.. JD... you were one of the best bosses in sos and one of the best bosses in the department... enjoy retirement boss and you are truly a policemans policeman. radke... i sure hope you get tied to finnegan and end up in the penn with him.. your a clown..
Tears thats all I have for J.f. I always thought he was a good person, a good friend and all I have now is tears for my fellow officer and friend. I pray and I cry for my brothers in blue. No matter what anyone thinks desperation is an awful thing. I just don't know what to think anymore, I am so sad and disappointed. I say a prayer every night no matter of guilt or innocence. YOu judgemental arrogant asses can say what you will I know that Jerry is a good person and always has been. So no matter what you think or say Jerry is a good guy and Keith is a rat that should be stuffed like a roadkill skunk!
After reading that complaint I can only say that J.F. is the world's "BIGGEST" piece of shit and I hope he rots in jail and during that time he is screwed in the ass many many times.
I wish jerry THe best.He is still my friend,And I support him..Not the Jena 6..See what happens when you let new guys do police work.SOS was agreat place,now its done,,True is next
SAVE ROXY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HI ROC.
I can tell dirty cops just by their spending habits!

What else can you tell? You should be in IAD, with your psychic abilities. Better yet get a website and 1-800 number making prophecies.
That's talent the CPD has never known!! WOW
Everyone is talking about the four coppers that were targeted. The four coppers are off the job because they were stealing and more importantly "rats".
"Putting his home address on Fox is totally unprofessional and puts his family in danger. WTF!!!!!!!!!!"
HEY A-HOLE YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY ABOUT THE 2 POLICE OFFICERS HE WANTED TO PUT A HIT ON?
WHAT WOULD YOUR FEEL WIFE FEEL IF A CONTRACT WAS TAKEN OUT ON YOU?
F-BAG SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THAT 1ST BUT HE'S ASELFISH CRIMINAL THUG IN THE HIGHEST ORDER. THAT STRIKE A LITTLE BIT TO CLOSE TO HOME FOR YOU AS WELL?
SOUL SEARCHING TIME,
PRINCE OF THE CITY...

To all of you polce officers out there who understand why KH did this, great! This is to the rest of you goofs that dont:
Jerry was going to kill (2) people! Can you comprehend that? Kill as in dead, as in gone forever. Both of these guys have kids. Both were once friends of both KH and Jerry. Enough is enough, the guy is out of control. KH just ended this for everyone. Give him a break, at least he had the balls to stand up for what we ALL know was the right thing to do! I am sure you fucks that are talking shit about him are just jealous little fags. He was a dam good cop and was caught up with the wrong guy! His CR's came when JF was around. Cut him some slack! As far as being a rat....nah he is doing the right thing, if he was a true rat, he would have given Jerry up 1 fucking year ago-DUMBASS, he didn't but he knew when enough was enough! So go fuck yourself! Be safe

are you teh fat head copper that takes him to ALL his court dates? K.H was the worst cop I ever witnessed, period. He was stupid ,arrogant, and greedy. Being a rat will follow him in the state joint where he will soon live and dream of the days he was riding with Big Jer. You ar ethe fool for believing he was ever good.
YOu judgemental arrogant asses can say what you will I know that Jerry is a good person and always has been. So no matter what you think or say Jerry is a good guy and Keith is a rat that should be stuffed like a roadkill skunk!
9/28/2007 05:00:00 AM
Once again, since you OBVIOUSLY MISSED THIS: Jerry was trying to KILL his own partners. KILL HIS OWN PARTNERS!!!
Your definition of "good person" is frightening. For your sake, I hope you don't have any knowledge of anything jerry may have done in the past...maybe you were next on his "to do" list.
If a tree falls in a Forest does the Forrest hear a sound or does it need to be told in a memo what it did or did not hear?
*************************************
Unless it was announced on a Blackberry, the tree did not fall.
When do you think Peter Francis Juracsi or Erick Martin and Associates are going to start putting out commercials regarding JF?
"Where you arrested by Jerome Finnegan..."
9/27/2007 11:29:00 AM
The last time I saw both of their commercials(which was about 3 seconds ago) I was under the impression that they are bankruptcy attorneys. We'll excuse the spelling and grammar because you're probably wasted. Oh wait it was from 11:29 AM...Yikes!
Thanks Buy Owner!
I worked a side job with Jerry at the Rock and Roll McDonalds in the nineties. I thought he was a little odd, but never criminal. I wonder if I should be worried. Do you think someone found out who egged the balloon seller??

Anyone who knows Billy Szura knows that this allegation against him is just bullshit.
ANYONE CAN DO HI'S. THAT IS NOT GOOD POLICE WORK YOU TOOL.

NO, your wrong child. You are the idiot. You could not see through all fo the allegations and trace a common thread in this? You base things on what you read in the papaer? I don't. Read between the lines ASSHAT...you will begin to discover the truth. Every story has some truth to it, as well as some BS to it. You just had your rose colored JF lens on so you could not see correctly.
Your man was never innocent, never. No matter how many guns or how much dope he got off the streets. Your just mad becasue the post is correct - all of you who were quick to jump on anyone saying that JF was a P.O.S. - now are sitting quietly saying you could not believe it. Or in your case, your trying to shift blame to others and aim your anger outside of the person who deserves it!
He wanted to kill a cop you F-ing clown! Do you understand that?
I guess that would make me an idiot for knowing that JF is a P.O.S. not better then the savages we see daily.
Call me a jerk too then - you are a F-ing goof!
I can tell dirty cops just by their spending habits!
WAKE UP!

I second that!
Just read the assholes complaint! Who is "finnegans" realtive is he a gang banger also. Form the complaint it states a realative was there when cw1 was in finnegans home! Who the fuck is this guy? Lets hope the "G" hooks him up also! jerry we hardly knew ya! lets hope you make plenty of new friends and have a new dance partner every night!
10:14 pm The biggest problem with Sgt's today is that theu don't know how to lead. You are suppose to motivate your guys to work hard and keep them positive. Instead we have Sgt's that yell and scream at his guys and spin all kinds of negative shit at them.
You must be talking about Beat 1169 the one and only Sgt. Dean Cleasen!!
WHAT ABOUT CH AND GG FROM SWAT? ARE THEY NEXT IN THE LINE UP?
GG IS A GOOG GUY, BUT CH IS CLOWN
Also, when a unit is dissolved the p.o.'s of that unit gt a supper bid. That is they get first crack at any openings regardless of seniority.
No, they get the watch they could have successfully bid for.
