Bye Pat! Bye Monique!

  • For years, dapper police spokesman Pat Camden was on TV giving reporters the department's version of events in shootings by officers.

    No more.

    The Office of Professional Standards, which investigates shootings by Chicago Police officers, is taking over the job.

According to the Better Government Association website, the Orange One is pulling down $118,260 per year while Monique Bond gets $122,844 for telling the media that Contact Cards are "warning tickets."

Now that OPS (IPRA to be) is going to be...well, we'll let you read it:
  • Now, OPS will discuss "undisputed facts" but will not give any "conclusionary statements" until the end of the OPS investigation, which can take years.
Years? To investigate a shooting? This should be entertaining. So is this going to be "years" at callback? "Years" of this whole incident hanging over officers' heads? "Years" of waiting to see if the City is going to back you up, indemnify you, let you keep earning a living? "Years" of letting an officer go out, do their job, then springing a surprise indictment on them years later, and having all the bottom feeding lawyers contest every bit of courtroom testimony from the past years based on this "investigation" which will result in millions of dollars more in payouts when Corp Counsel won't fight anything?

At least Pat will have more time to work on that blog site of his since he won't be appearing in front of the cameras anymore. $118,260 to run a blog that no one reads? We're in the wrong business.

Ok..that's just not true. I read it for laughs. Anytime I need a laugh I read the post regarding, "Technology Initiatives". Ya gotta admit, that's hysterical. Oh and the announcements regarding department openings at TRU and SWAT,like anyone has a chance in hell of getting in these units reserved for the clout babies. You get more truth reading the Sunday comics.
Then there is the story on how a CPD officer had to take it upon himself to fill his squad car with water and ask a citizen to load his van with water to help the runners in the marathon. Hmmmm..a good lawyer would have to ask, if the organizers had plenty of water on hand, why would an officer have to take it upon himself to get water for the runners? This is an official certified city blog and their giving evidence of the water supply being low. Just keep telling folks, contact cards are like "warning tickets", hysterical.

Saw on the news that ops will now immediately report to the scene of a police involved shooting to interview witnesses. Does this mean they get first crack at these interviews before the detectives are allowed to speak to the witnesses? Aren't the dicks in charge of the crime scene and all witnesses? So now ops will come in and take over? And say what you will about Pat, atleast he had a clue what he was talking about and was a genuinely nice person unlike the crackwhore.

OPS handling a shooting investigation, we are all in trouble. I know form experience that talking to most OPS investigators is like talking to a little kid. First they they talk to citizens then witnesses then their boss and it is after this they come to their conclusion. They are a bunch of followers not free thinking individuals that have any idea what it is to be the police. They do not know what it is to be working at 3:00am responding to a call of a man with a gun, as you arrive you see an individual who has no fear of the police. Quiclky you exit your vehicle and give chase, oh I forgot to say you are alone because as anyone who works 1st watch knows seldom are there 10-4 units. Now as you chase this individual he decides to turn around and point his gun at you, you, fearing for your life shoot in his direction striking him resulting in his death, good shooting good job. OPS talks to and will always find someone who saw it differently, you the police officer shot him for no reason, he never had a gun he never pointed it at you he was running because the police always harass him. Does everyone see where this is going, not only can you lose your job for doing the wrong thing you now can lose your job for doing the right thing. Next time a student is killed by gunfire someone should tell the mayor it is because the city is dangerous, and he needs to forget about the Olympics and start worrying about something that really matters. His allowing OPS to investigate police shootings simply tells us all that he has no faith in his own Police Department. I think that if OPS is going to investigate all police shootings we may as well eliminate the entire Detective Division. If the Mayor thinks they are qualified to investigat shootings then they should be qualified to investigate and solve other crimes. This job is not what it used to be it has become everyone for themself, stay safe and keep your job.

It sounds like OPSS is only going to comment about police related shootings where officer isn't injured. Monique will still have her chance misspeak and show her incompetence.

Here is what bothers me, the head of OPSS said that OPS investigators would be on the scene collecting evidence and speaking to witnesses. What the f**k? Please tell me this is just spin. Please tell me the Department isn't going along with this. It sounds like in police shootings they have forgotten that the P.O. is a victim not an offender. You can't have OPS getting in the way of the Detectives investigation. What if their invetigations show two different things? And, reopening cases because the jury finds the city and department liable. Please. Where is FOP? I smell witch hunt.

Look, Camden and Bond did the job they were told to do. They were Deparment spokes people, not the spokes people for the individual patrolman. Camden was put there by the mayor. He is not a bad guy. I have met him at events and he is personable and will talk to anyone.

I have also met Bond a few times. She is also a nice person. I guess it is easy to slam people you have never met. They speak for the Superintendent, not us.

I guess the guys who come on here and brag about not doing any work or just being dogs and collecting a paycheck deserve any more respect than these two.

They at least know their jobs. The rest of you have no idea of yours or you would be doing them.

Oh, and I have no clout and ove thirty years in patrol. I could and do out work most of you sissies.

I know Pat C. He's a great guy. When relaying information to the media, he gives the police and any investigation regarding the police, the benefit of the doubt. He is careful what he says to media as he is aware that when we're involved in a shooting, it's no doubt the dept and media that treat us like we're guilty until proven innocent.

I agree about monique Bonehead, she's horrible, ignorant, and pretty much should've never got the job.

Dave Bailis (Correct Spelling unkown) who she replaced was also a good guy with our best interest in mind. NO WAY could she fill his shoes. This poor guy was sent by the Mayor to clean up someone elses fucking mess up at City procurment office.

OPS should not be anywhere near the scene of a shooting! This will only ruin the scene evidence, impede the investigation, and taint the witnesses.

We are in a trouble before we're in trouble! It's enough we have a bunch of clout Sgts and stupid clout baby Detectives to fuck it up for us. So, hope when you get in to that "Justified" shooting, that there's a competent Sgt., and Competent Detectives on scene. Oh! And let us not forget the Clout Capt, and Lts. (Watch Commanders) I say street LTs but I havent seen a street Lt in over 12 Years. Remember when Lts used to be on the street (Like theyre supposed too)?

And!!!! Lets hope this doesnt make certain officers especially the rookies second guess themselves from pulling the trigger which could save their life, partner, or citizen(s) of which they were responding to help.

OK 9:59. you believe a 120,000.00 a year salary is appropriate? Bond can't even distinguish between a 38mm or 38 cal.
Here, I have an idea. Use articulate police officers to do the job. The city, (tax payers) will save money. The officers can be LT.'s. We have plenty of them who just sit around.
M. Bond is clueless. Is she Daleys side piece? We certainly aren't getting our monies worth.
Your 30+ years have made you ignore common sense. Don't worry it's not your fault. After a while you probably do begin to believe that this city is legit.

The only differences I see is that their investigators will respond to the scene when before they only went to the area. Now I know they will talk to the bystanders who going to give "their" version that they witnessed while three blocks away in the bathtub.

But then whoever they interview their name should be given to the detectives who will also interview them to determine if their story is credible or if they are full of shit.

But thanks for trying to correct something that didn't need correcting Monique - back to your broomstick.

I'm going to start telling people in the private sector how to do their job. I'm gonna march in, stand on their desk and start pointing out how i would do their accounting,filing and I.T. stuff, although i've never done any of those things I saw it done on T.V. as well as talked with my priest about different ideas. This should work out great!

NEWS FLASH PEOPLE, OPS has been responding to Officer involved shooting for years. They tend to blend in with the crowds of other police officials and no one realy takes notice. But they are there and have been!

So dont get too excited, you may not even notice a differance in the way things get handled. If you think OPS or what ever they call them now are going to take over the investigations I have a bridge i want to sell you.

As I have seen so many times posted on this blog, it's all smoke and mirrors, to pacify the masses. They will be there just to determine if any rules have been violated as in the past. If they feel a law has been violated, it will be turned over to the States Attornies Pulic Integrity Unit as allways.

when I was sent to ARS aka call back, I was told to settle in. I did not understand what I was being told. After being there sometime now it is all clear to me now. I have seen police officers who are stripped sitting for sometime now! I mean years! I am not complaining, no, just wondering how the system works? Do the bosses sit around in IAD and say yes, this guy is guilty or no this guy is guilty, but has a good phone call? Will their ever be a level playing field for the working cop across the board?
___________________________________

I have the answer for you.

Just seek out and ask Sgt.J. Brieman - by now he should've been fired. But he's been bragging that he doing his stint at call back until what he did was all forgotten, the victim payed off, and then they put him back in a district.

You know? The Sex offender from 19th District and Son of the almost dumped but retired instead Deputy Jan Pestka.

Just ask Jerry, he'll tell you how its done. Then ask him how he became Sgt without the Education requirments prior to his fuck up.

I'd say ask his Mom who's head of the Water Reclimation Security but I'm sure she's busy keeping our drinking water safe from terrorism.

The only differences I see is that their investigators will respond to the scene when before they only went to the area. Now I know they will talk to the bystanders who going to give "their" version that they witnessed while three blocks away in the bathtub.

But then whoever they interview their name should be given to the detectives who will also interview them to determine if their story is credible or if they are full of shit.

11/11/2007 03:32:00 PM



OPS started coming out to the scenes of police shootings about 1999 or so, so this really isn't a new idea in any way... the practice may have fallen off, but - I can't remember who was heading up OPS, for a short while, but they started doing that. It wasn't a hindrance to the dicks that I could see at the time...
My point is THIS IS AN OLD IDEA... nothing new.

NEWS FLASH! NOVEMBER 11, 2007

From OPS; Dateline Chicago;

A News release has just been issued that the book "1984, by George Orwell" is Fiction!

None of that stuff really happened!

A spokesperson admitted this today after a 23 year investigation was completed by OPS.

Chicago's Mayor Daley referred all questions to the Library Police Superintendant Dana Starks.

OPS is still working on "2001-A Space Odyssey" and won't comment for several more decades on the outcome of that investigation.

NEXT! IS OPRAH FOR REAL??????

30 yr cpd said...SCC why the hatred towards Pat Camden. He is retired CPD who did his time, was a good cop, paid his dues and now does a great job representing us to the media. Is there something personal you want to tell us. How come no link to his blog? I've read it, it's positive stuff about CPD not always negative like yours.

Go back in our archives and read the 28 Feb 07 post and then the 01 Mar 07 post. Then come back and tell us what a stand up guy who served his time Pat "the Orange One" really is. We don't know what type of copper he was back in the day, but he's become nothing more than an overpaid tool if he's forgotten what this Department is capable of to those who displease them or rock the boat.

To those with no time on the job, who say "oh, let the G take over because I don't care because I have no clout,blah,blah,blah.."

If that happens a federal judge is essentially running the department. When consent decrees occur the collective bargaining agreements are the first thing disolved.

The next day you are punching a clock, no vacation days, no p-days, no senority protection, no greivance procedures, etc.

The G decides what, when,where,why & how you do everything, plus they tell you here's how much you now make. Take it or leave it!

HMMMM

LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT FIRST THE DICK INTERVIEW WITNESSES THEN THE ASA IS GOIN TO DO A HANDWRITTEN STATEMENT. OPS THEN IS GOING TO TAKE BUT NOT IN CO-OPERATION WITH CPD A STATEMENT.

SOOOOOO
IF POKKEE CHANGES HIS STATEMENT IN THE OPS STATEMENT ISNT THAT REQUIRED TO BE IN THE FELONY FOLDER. WOULDNT THE DICK NEED COPIES OF THE STATEMENT DUE TO THE FACT ALL THE MATERIALS GATHERED MUST BE PRODUCED IN DISCOVERY AT TRIAL.

WHAT IF THE WITNESS LIES IS OPS GOING TO PROSECUTE ENFORCING THE AFFIDAVIT.

CAN AN OFFICER FILE A LAWSUIT AGAINST OPS FOR A BOGUS INVESTIGATION UNDER THE PRETENSE OF A CR# PREVENTING FUTURE PROMOTION REGARDLESS IF IT IS UNFOUNDED.
REMEMBER ALL THE PO'S WITH 10 CR# ARE BEING PUNISHED IN THE PUBLIC EYE, DO YOU THINK IF YOU WERE ON THE LIST THAT YOU COULD ONE DAY BE 1ST DEPUTY?

WOULD IT BE WRONG IF THE DICKS JUST QUESTIONED THE WITNESSES THEN SENT THEM HOME WITHOUT NOTIFYING OPS. REMEMBER VICTIMS DONT HAVE TO STAY AT THE AREAS THE CAN LEAVE WHEN THE WANT.

WILL OPS STAY AT THE AREA FOR THE 48 HOURS WAITING FOR OFFENDERS TO CONFESS. WILL THE OPS INTERVIEWS BE TAPED BY VIDEO?

We aren't a corrupt department and if we are then every government agency in this country is just as corrupt from the top down. We have a job that is constantly questioned if you are locking people up your holding people down, if you aren't locking people up you're letting crime run rampant and it will be the same people making those accusations. they are putting cameras in our cars, attaching gps to us what more can a federal oversight do? every job people bring their people in, its annoying for those of us who aren't on the "in" but what are you gonna do? my guess for the next superintendent? a figure head. who cares who they are they'll do the same thing.

And you have how many years on the job? I have seen POs, probably some who post here, who are dumber than dumb. I have seen people all over this job who are a waste of space and oxygen and tax payer money.

Who are you to question how many years the poster has? Oh, trying to hide the fact that you have ten minutes on the job.

You obviously have no clue. You live in the basement of your mother's house and pretend to be the real police. There are POs on this job who have time on and who, over the years have met people.

If you were a real cop or a real human being, you would know that people treat you the way you treat them. I guess you have no friends or people who like you.
