More Sneed Droppings

  • Sneed hears rumblings that the Justice Department was eyeing the possibility of seeking a consent decree to take over the administration of the Chicago Police Department months ago.

    • • The idea stemmed from disclosures of police torture, wrongful convictions and police misconduct that grabbed national and international headlines and were an embarrassment to the hardworking men in blue.

Um, "eyeing the possibility"? We'd say that the wheels were in full motion for a takeover and this naming of a feeb to take the helm is a last ditch effort by the mayor to avoid having the Police Department under a consent decree. The political fallout in the midst of an Olympic bid would be almost certainly fatal to the effort.

Sneed part two:
  • Watch for Ald. Ed Burke and Ike Carothers, chairman of the City Council's Police Committee, to introduce an ordinance mandating that any Chicago cop who discharges his or her weapon on or off duty must submit to a Breathalyzer test within two hours.

    • • To wit: This action stems from the reported number of police shootings over 10 years marked by continuing financial settlements the city pays out.

    • • Upshot: It comes on the heels of a $20 million payout in the Jon Burge torture case which has members of the City Council agitated over the cost to taxpayers.

First of all, the ordinance runs squarely against the existing contract (expired, but still currently in effect) - labor agreements trump City Ordinance if we aren't mistaken. FOP would have to negotiate this.

Second, we don't know where she gets that this action is in any way related to the number of police shootings and city payouts. This is an asinine comparison. Has there been any accusation in the past 10 years, let alone 20 years, that an officer was intoxicated and it somehow led to or affected a shooting? We aren't talking about when a drunk cop waves his gun around - that has happened and people have been fired for it. We're talking about actually shooting someone - we can't recall one off the tops of our heads. Anyone?

And of course, to tie it into Burge is stupid. The city is the one who refused to go to court and defend these allegations. A city run by someone who was the state's attorney at the time everything allegedly happened.

I'm trying to understand this whole proposal. Does this mean that if you are involved in a shooting while drunk it is considered an automatic "bad" shoot? Don't mean to sound ignorant but let say your drinking at a bar, a fight breaks out and a guy takes a gun out and begins shooting several people inside. Your drunk and shoot the guy, protecting the lives of other patrons. But because your drunk your shoot is going to be a "bad" shoot.
Once again I ask...
why are we the "POLICE" again.

It's not against the law to buy or consume alcohol yet right? So why does it seem that it's now illegal for a cop to have a few beers then defend himself against a dangerous attacker. I bet most cops could pass the CPD pistol course with a few beers in them!

Quite honestly I am surprised that this topic (breath test after shooting) hasn' been brought up earlier. I am pretty sure that we are in the absolute minotiry of departments that DON'T require this. I know of an incident that occured in the suburbs where the investigating agency attempted to get the CPD members to submit because it was part of their policy. I for one say who cares, but I agree that those on the welfare rolls should be dropping too.....

Take the alcohol testing one step further, and see how this plays out.

You are involved in a shooting, and blow on the breathalyser. Your reading comes up 0.01. This level, while not even close to being intoxicated, could lead some attorney to say that you were drinking, even if not true (if you just got done eating, I believe you can show that reading, mattering on the food). You are now sued civilly.
During the contract negotiations to come, you know the city will say that we only want it to catch drunk policemen, or people drinking at work. How it is used by others is another story.
Remember the 20 CR number list kept by the department? They said that it is only internal, but once you make a list of any kind in government, it is discoverable in court (ie. take a look at the lawyers filing suit to get the list of names).
One last point with alcohol testing: I thought Prohibition was repealed in 1933. Wouldn't that be class discrimination to essentially prohibit policemen from ever drinking? After all, we can be called in to work at any time. We can't drink if we are going to be working. The implication with this proposed law is that policemen should never drink. The department will argue what their intentions are, but intentions are not the same when viewed from the vantage of a lawyer looking for the deep pockets.

Ike Carothers? Is this the same Ike Carothers who, when up for re-election, call's himself, Ike "Sims" Carothers? So here's the deal: Back in the Sixties a black Westside powerhouse and Daley stalwart was State Representative Ike Sims. Today there is a large Section 8 building at the intersection of Washington Blvd. and Homan Ave. named after this fraud and known as the "Ike Sims Apartments"-another Daley giveaway to people who will not provide for themselves but can be counted on to vote for the Democrats, and a Daley-much like the Irish! Anyone other than John Northern remember the "Chicken Hawk Rooster"? That was the name of the policy wheel operated by organized crime through their front man, Ike Sims. State Representative William Dawson ran another one and the money spent by impoverished blacks filled the campaign coffers of Ike Sims and Richaed Daley. However the primary beneficiary was the Chicago Outfit. So this is the legacy of the Carothers-Sims family. Not unlike the dope dealers who pry the bottom dollar from a crack whore with four kids in a rat infested apartment in 011, 010, or the west end of 013. And to any of you half-wits who think organized crime is dead in Chicago-you're soft. They just made another merit lieutenant. So go iron you're kilts and keep voting for Daley, boys! You deserve what you get.

Sneed is 100% correct. CPD was about as near to a federal take over as Weiss is to being the new sup.

For all of you crying about wanting Federal take over you almost had your wish.

Watch for some new changes. Perjury clause? Get caught lying and your out. CPD officers have a credibility problem. Think paper is bad now? The Feds thrive on paperwork.

We have a form of Fed oversight now. THink about it. Former Feds in positions of CPD Sup, Head of OPS or what every they call it now, Inspector General is a former fed. WHY? How close were we to a fed takeover of CPD?

Years of Clout based Promotions, Years of Corruption, Thieving, Etc. Then apply the antics of City Hall, Aldermen ie. Silver Shovel, Hired Truck Scandle,and it just may be that the Feds are sick and tired and told King Ritchie its time to clean house? I speculate that the King of Chicago may have been told you made the mess clean it up or we will and if we have to your gonna end up in a Federal Pen with George Ryan and Blago may be next?

I know this is rampant speculation and theory, but that last LT promotions list just may be the last of the clout promotions.
