More Blatant Falsehoods
The quotes from J-Fed just keep on defying what we know to be reality. The latest:
- "If you work hard and do a good job, you will move up no matter who you know," Weis said after a swearing-in ceremony for dozens of commanders.
Bwahahahahahahaha. Oh lord. Please excuse us... hahahahaha.
Let's just point out a few of these people who are doing such a "good job"
Let's just point out a few of these people who are doing such a "good job"
- Moy - triple "merit." Worked how many hours in Patrol? Always been downtown
- Martinez - triple "merit." LAPA through and through
- Avila - double "merit" and possibly related to the governor via marriage?
- Martin - double "merit," possibly triple
- Crump-Hales - double "merit" at least and so lacking in knowledge, she actually cost the City a few hundred thousand in reverse discrimination cases backing Marianne Perry
We're sure people who have been around the block a bit more than us have even more stories about how qualified certain people are (or aren't) for these jobs. Might some grow into them? Sure, but the chances are slim. You learn to lead by knowing your job and the jobs of your people, not house mousing downtown.
We're not thrilled with a number of J-Fed's choices. We'll see if our opinions bear out this disappointment. A lot of it will rely on how much responsibility J-Fed makes his commanders assume. If he fires a few of them in the first 60 to 90 days, we'd be more impressed than not.

All you have to do is look at the names and you realize it's business as usual.
Say it ain't so, JP.
OH THANK GOD, J-FED IS GOING TO REWARD THE WORKERS NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE-- BULLSHIT-- YOU WANT TO REWARD ME, HOW ABOUT A FAIR CONTRACT, FULLY FUNDED PENSION, PAID HEALTH CARE AFTER RETIREMENT TILL MEDICARE KICKS IN, ETC... DAMN I'M DREAMING AGAIN.
We have a Supt. who was never the police ladies and gentleman these are the dark days of this dept. stay true to one another thats all we have right now don t get caught up with false hope and promises from a guy who has no idea on how to be the police let along know our needs, 12hr shifts are only a ploy to limit your overtime and and kill your comp time, fitness ect. ect. J.P take a ride with me to the darkside the twilight zone devil side the low end you have to be the police in order to know our needs, this is coming from a working p.o who has turned down awards for catching homicide offender's and all that other bullshit that comes with this job the only thing i care about is the respect of my peers i wouldn t be caught dead shaking your hand or any other exempt who has not earned there stripes, be safe my brothers and sisters in blue just do your eight and hit the gate.
this is an email that was sent out, by William O'donnell to all persons with dept. emails. I never met the man, but just from reading this letter he appears to be a man of class and one who deserved more respect that was given to him by the new regime.. Friends and colleagues,
I wore my uniform for the final time yesterday. Twenty-five years ago, when I graduated from the academy, I didn't think I could be more proud to wear the uniform of a Chicago Police Officer. But yesterday morning, I felt far prouder to wear my uniform in this city full of people who I have served and helped to protect for nearly half my life. I'll cherish that moment forever.
It has been an honor to work among you. As you continue to keep watch over our great city, keep yourselves safe--and have fun. I know I did. I loved every minute, just as my father did before me and my daughter will after me.
Now that I'm walking into my "sunset years" at the ripe old age of 51 (it is my birthday today), I'd like to say that I'll always treasure your friendship, loyalty, and professionalism. And I'll never take for granted the opportunity I had to work for some of the greats, Terry Hillard and Harvey Radney, who live by these virtues every day.
When I'm casting for smallmouth and sipping a mug of Bailey's-laced coffee at daybreak on our lake, I'll smile and think of you.
Does anybody know if J-fed is a Mormon? There are a lot of Mormons with the "G". His "hard work" and "fitness" mentality is right in line with Mormon/FBI values. It would explain a lot of things about him. Has anyone seen him drinking a cup of coffee?
Some of these exempts are not capable of changing a light bulb. how many exempts does it take to change a light bulb? Insert pun here.
Is J-Fraud really that stupid or even worse, does he think we are?
Judy Martin was a great Captain to work for in 010. We shall miss her.
It is my understanding that then ADS Karen Rowan pushed Hillard to promote her to be a merit lieutenant and she was appointed a Captain by Cline.
She does have a master degree and was a hard working patrolman in both VCS and Narcotics.
Her husband was a major donor, he is a trial lawyer, to the memorial fund.
I think she deserves everything she got.

"Martin - triple "merit" "
If you mean Judith Martin, who went from W.C. in 010 to D.C. in 013, I don't think so.
Very intelligent, very knowledgeable, and very good with her troops as Watch Commander. She will be missed in 010.
Good luck to her!
who is martins wack
Commander District 5- John Ball, also triple merit guy. The only I ever knew who would openly brag that he was the most deserving of his merit Det. and Sgt promotion.
Business as usual...the only thing different is who is callin the shots. It's all who you know.
Another merit example......
Lt Lewis has been detailed from 011to 002 as the acting commander.
She was promoted as a MERIT Lt out of unit 143 just over a year ago.
What's the matter, no captains or lieutenants in 002 that are qualified to keep the chair warm?
How about passing a test? Or is that too difficult? Anyone ( and I MEAN ANYONE) can get a Masters degree from those diploma mills, everyone knows that. Maybe being able to assess information and act on it will never prevail.
I would guess promoting Captains who pledge their allegiance to the new regime will be Jody's next move. There are only 64 Captains on the books and a few of those are extended medicals. All you old fuck Lt.s who have been sticking around probably don't have a chance since he will probably want some younger guys that he can brain wash.
Judy, you clearly are staying up way too late or getting up way too early to start writing about yourself. Why would Karen Rowan put you in for anything you never worked for her. You are the biggest horses ass on the department(or at least close). Go brag somewhere else how you knew you were going to be promoted in the first Sgt's, Lt's and capt's rank when you became eligible.
You were a dog as a P.O. but you were taken care of by another former head of IAD as you had taken care of him. Go away you floozy moron.
Judy Martin, triple promotion. Did not take second part of Lt's test because she said she didn't need to, she would be taken care of.
It is not so much that some of these merit promotions are bad, but is POLITICS and CLOUT. J-Fed implied we were getting away from this. As Good a Martin might be, there are P.O.'s out there right now who could have been Sgt's . Lt's etc if it were an even playing field. i can get one jump, but not 2 or 3. How much do they have to be helped?
Pallidin
Under Jimmy Jackson's new "Impairment" teletype, we would have to report O'Donnell for the Baileys and coffee.
Who is Lt Sarlito's(1890) clout? She's as capable as Crump-Hale
J-Fed is only following Todd Stroger's model of hiring and promoting.
Anyone else wondering if they should have just taken the job at McDonalds? "A number 2 with cheese,got it. Please drive to the second window." Just think we could have been a supervisor by now living in the suburbs.
It kills me how all you fake hotshots cry about Weis' honesty. Honesty?! Until you can say that word with a stright face and a clean conscience, leave it alone. The man's a politician, it's part of the job.
Every swinging dick who's filled those bullshit shoes has cow-towed to the political pressure...every one! J-Schmed is just the newest face from another place.
So relax, do your job and don't worry about the upper echelon clowns. It doesn't affect you one bit. Do you think they sit around and discuss your daily to do?
Find a legit beef to bitch about otherwise, suck it up and handle your bidness.
THERE ISN'T A PROMOTEE THAT ISNT FULLY JUICED UP, THAT INCLUDES THAT ASSCLOWN HEADING UP THE GANGS UNIT.
HEY WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE JEFFERSON TAP INCIDENT, THAT SENT TO CITIZENS TO THE HOSPITAL?
She does have a master degree and was a hard working patrolman in both VCS and Narcotics.
Her husband was a major donor, he is a trial lawyer, to the memorial fund.
I think she deserves everything she got.

SIGNED HER BIGGEST SUPPORTER, JUDY MARTIN.
BTW, LOVED THE LINE HARDWORKING IN OCD & NARCOTICS PRECIOUS, PURE BULLSHIT BUT PRECIOUS JUST THE SAME..
Information from a good source says we are about to receive another black eye as a department. Members of a 017 District Tact Team are about to be stripped. Guys please do things the right way, the old days are long,long gone.
I would like to know which Exempts are not married. I would especially like to know what Lieutenants are not married, therefor they can possibly build their career with me. I'm 27 and my sister is 24, we've both been on 2 years and are just waiting for our chance. I think I deserve to be an Exempt's girlfriend or at least a Lietuenant's girlfriend, and let me say that any man would be proud to have me or my sister on his arm.

Is he married? He is kinda cute. Our last Commander could have been the example for Proactive. He had as much of a personality as a pimple. Good bye to the worst Commander the 5th District ever had.

triple merit
Make it one merit in a carrer, make them earn the rest. Do the work like the others in this dept. Merits a good amount of the time do not know what it is like to work hard
Don't forget - 1) the Feds do not and never have done anything like Patrol. 2) They have virtually unlimited resources. 3)They are trained automatons - they follow orders and directives from above.
No-Clue-Jody is the Richie Rich wannabe that all feds dream of becoming someday. The little leprechaun will be celebrating St. Patricks' Day because he's found his pot o' gold right here in Chicago. You gotta laugh, though, when you see his beady little eyes peering out from under all that gold braid. For God's sake, little fella, at least get your mommy to buy you a hat that fits! Hahahahaha! Oh ye little devil, always after me Lucky Charms! Oh, my side's hurtin'!
"this is an email that was sent out, by William O'donnell to all persons with dept. emails. I never met the man, but just from reading this letter he appears to be a man of class and one who deserved more respect that was given to him by the new regime.. "
You know, I felt exactly the same when I read that. I never met the man, but I wish I would have. He even included his personal email and cell phone number with it! One could read that as a very subtle "kiss my ass" to J-Fed, I believe! I hope he lives to have a healthy and happy retirement! Add him to the list of people who can now sit back and laugh at this circus.
J-Fed is a J-Fraud...Typical FBI, you're all wimps J and couldn't make a pimple on a policeman's ass. So take your muscles and go home, where ever that may be.
Martin's son sure made her welcome in 013th yesterday when he got arrested and then pushed a police officer!
Now lets see how this one is handled????

Thank you,Judy for the support of yourself. You described yourself in glowing terms. Problem is, it is all bullshit. But enjoy the clout promotion.
"If you work hard and do a good job, you will move up no matter who you know," Weis said after a swearing-in ceremony for dozens of commanders.
Or....you will get a crap ton of CR's in this anti-police enviroment an be placed on the Behavioral Watch List!
IF YOU THINK THESE PEOPLE WERE PROMOTED BASED ON POLITICS......YOUR WRONG!!!
LET'S JUSY SAY IF THIS WAS THE CASE, WHY WERE THEY PASSED SO MANY TIMES OVER???????/???????
JUST WHAT I THOUGHT. YOU DONT KNOW!
SO. KNOW THEY GET TO ENJOY WHAT OTHER'S HAVE BEEN ENJOYING FOR YEARS.
TAKE A LOOK AT THE PAST BOSSES AND YOU'LL FIND A COMMON DENOMINATOR......PEACE

Was he a Lt in SOS? Talked about all the shootings he got in to but not one Award of Valor ribbon?
I look at JFed and cant really tell if he thinks hes legit or if he knows hes just busting our balls. He must know right?
And he must know that we know that he knows that we know. He must know the rest of us serfs have known all these bosses their entire careers right?
But a lot of these Fed types think it alls on the up and up. Scarey when you think about it.
yeah captain martin was good to the midnight troops in ten but if you were on third watch and had a late pinch she would be trying to drag you out of the station so you would not get any overtime like it was coming out of her pocket, heard that she was storing overtime slips in the garbage
How about the fact that he kept Terry Wiliams around. The guy that sat around Narcotics, passing out cigars and bragging as a Sgt. with minimal time on the job, that he was going to be on the Lieutenants list one Friday years back. Lo and behold when his daddy's whack didn't come through,(this time) and he looked like a bigger asshole than he normally is, he hit the medical for months, if not a year. Then he comes back and the merit Lt. spot is pushed through, then Merit Capt and merit Commander. Mr. J-Fed,or anyone else,please show me the hard work that Terrence William did? I dare you! He always was and will always be a no nothing, daddy's boy, political hack piece of shit, no matter what his rank is.
To all of the new Exempts. Enjoy your next three years. You will be beholden to J-Fed and da mayor.
Don't be surprised in three years (perhaps sooner) when J Fed has been replaced, you too, will have your heads lopped off and handed to you like the Exempts that you replaced, had done to them!
Your rank is an expendable commodity, and like the the old Jays slogan used to go, "Don't Worry, We'll Make More." Lets hope you have both time on the job and age before your let go.
To J- Fed, you may do wonderful things to the department while you are in charge. It will all come down to one or two bad press incidents and you too, like others before hand, will fall from grace and leave in shame.
The suicide watch is on for the 008th Dist tact Lt..........

Gee.....How come she could NEVER pass a promotional exam????? I'm really getting a little tired of this often repeated FALSEHOOD that there are these really great leaders except for some unknown reason they couldn't pass a promotional exam. The reality is that a TRUE leader dedicates him or her self to the process that the organization puts forth and COMPETES. A true leader finds a way to set aside personal comfort for a time and to study harder than every one else. Bowing to clout and political correctness is a recipe for perpetual mediocrity.
3/16/2008 02:46:00 AM --- Mormon's have like 25 children after they marry, J-Fed has zero so probably not

Yes she was a good boss but how did she become a boss? There are great bosses riding around in beat cars every night but they just did not get the chance. They also make some great pinches and know how to be the real police inside and out. What was her best felony pinch?, ok best misdemeanor pinch? "There are guys out here that have been working their ass off for 15 plus years when do they get their chance." DIRTY HARRY FROM THE ENFORCER.... I agree
The fact the lily crump hales was ever promoted in the first place and STILL continues to make the cut just goes to show that you can get and stay promoted if you are a female minority that has clout. Ouch! Is that the truth that hurts, or do I have gas?
Oh I see this job is legit! well I think not, J boy promoted the LT> who was involved with the Jefferson Tab incident to Commander. What happened the cover-up continues, WHY because they are connected Baby boys. Don't kid yourself Officer P was an unstable Officer crying about daddy six months after he died yet why isn't he on a medical leave. Understand something (Dad) Powers would have fucked any one of us over big time.
What happened? All you no time no bid coppers thought Judy was the best thing to happen to this department. I haven't seen morale this low in over twenty yeras on the job. Told you, be careful what you wish for...... Judy & the fbi's are gonna screw this department up and then leave in 3 years..... Heard 1st Deputy sent out something about drinking off duty..... This job is going down fast..... And you young guys thought Judy was the best thing to happen..........

Who the hell are you kidding??? I know a SGT., who is a stand up guy, but had a psycho for an ex-wife, and she tried to jam him up with several BS C.R. #'s... So many that a judge at their final divorce hearing, slammed the ex-wife for fucking with him. Whats my point? Through the whole process who do you think was "coaching" the ex-wife every step of the way??? YEP! SGT. Judy Martin!!!! Dont be fooled. She'll jam any working copper if she gets the chance!!!!!

Yeah ok........
Matt the rat tried to ram martinez through as merit pick in 97 before they had merit picks. He got sent back to sergeant for a while then made lirutenant in the next class.
J-wtf?
The reality is that the primary factor in ALL district commander assignments was race.
Many objectionable white supervisors were promoted because they are very connected. Many objectionable black supervisors were promoted because, in reality, there are very few black sergeants and lieutenants to choose from. Why?
First, in general, black officers do worse on promotional exams. Second, the number of "merit" promotions for any race is capped by the number of officers of that race who pass the 1st part of any exam. Therefore, black officers typically receive significantly less (total) merit promotions than white officers.
The city has to provide some objective "job related" basis for their merit promotions. They have used the first part of the test to give every race an almost equal opportunity of acheiving a merit promotion.
In reality, the city uses merit promotions to reward clout. So, if the city messes with the current racial formula and someone (of either race) sues, the first allegation is that the city is violating the Shakman decree. Theoretically, a federal judge could ban ALL merit promotions.
Now, if the city came up with a real "merit standard," they could promote supervisors of all races who are good, hardworking officers and would make good supervisors. The problem is that clout babies are almost always bad workers and that's who the city wants to promote.
Over the years, "merit" has taken on a racial connotation, but this isn't the whole truth. The truth is that "merit" for any race means "connected."
"Merit" supervisors are the people the city wants to run the department.
So, SCC, what the hell is the big surprise that multiple merit promotees are still being promoted?
Her husband was a major donor, he is a trial lawyer, to the memorial fund...
Oh, that explains it.
So they say that politics had nothing to do with the latest changes. Lets see: commanders of 001 and 018 both work for Keating. Neither gets moved and Keating is close to the Mayor. Co-ink-a-dink? I dont think so!!!
Geno Roy - gets caught doinking his nasty, two different baby daddy secretary at his summer home in Michigan by a neighbor who calls Roy's wife and dimes him out. His wife (and clout) has him served divorce papers in the lobby of 009 while everyone laughs at him. Shootings in 009 are at an all time high while all he is thinking about is getting trim from his office staff. Integrity...ethics....NOT!!! but who saved him from the chopping block? Thats right the 11th Ward (Daleys ward).
J-fraud, if you want to make it appear legit DUMP ROY!!!!

How can Weis stand there and preach about having a public and private life unsullied and to lead by example when he leave a commander in place that is a drunk and has lost all of the respect of his troops thanks to his getting caught with his "sex-retery"
3/15/2008 12:20:00 AM
keep this one in mind. will he be demoted or not
Some of these exempts are not capable of changing a light bulb. how many exempts does it take to change a light bulb? Insert pun here.
-I don't know,dude, I'm not good at math.
Having sex with your secretary (allegedy) doesn't make one a bad boss. It may not make you a smart boss, but it doesn't make you a bad one. As far as Roy allegedly receiving divorce papers in the station, where did you think his Mrs. was going to have him served at? Where would you find your mate
the easiest if he or she were a District Commander?
3/15/2008 04:01:00 PM
You talk like its okay for a "boss" to lead like that. He is a pompus, arrogant a_hole who walks around like he is untouchable. Matbe he is, but he is still a bad example
New Cmdr John Ball was a dick in Area 1 in the mid 1990's when he was shot at by a bad guy. Ball was leaving work and some guy was firing at another fine citizen across 51st Street. Ball was caught between the two in his car. He jumped out and the guy either fired at him, or continued firing at the inteneded target. Ball fired at the shooter, but missed. The guy was grabbed and the whole production of the round table, Street Deputy etc. was undertaken. The dicks assigned got the guy charged with Attempt Murder with Ball as the victim along with other offenses. When it was trial time Ball blew off numerous court dates. The ASA office begged him to come to court. Finally the ASA office called Lt. Regan at Area 1 and threatened to arrest Ball for failing to comply with a court subpoena if he did not show up at the next court date. It will be interesting to see how he handles court deviations now that he's a DC.
Moy, Martinez, Stanley, Crump-Hales, et al., are useless, contemptible and incompetent political hacks unworthy of respect, even as patrol officers.
However, the Dept. broke the mold with the ouster of Senora Sherlock, our former deer in the headlights.
God, I miss that pinata already. Is she on the lam in Florida yet?
Hey 3/16/2008 04:53:00 AM,
you are right when you say "I don't think so" about Judy Martin.
You are right. She's not a triple merit, she's a QUADRUPLE merit! Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captin and now exempt! I do not care how nice you find her to be, one bite at the apple PLEASE!
And 3/16/2008 12:55:00 AM,
Bill O'Donnell is a gentleman, no doubt, as was his Father, and his goodbye e-mail was very classy, but he benefited plenty from clout and being connected during his career. He became an exempt because of his pedigree. He had his turn and I feel bad for him, but now it is somebody else's turn to be connected. Sadly, live by the sword, die by the sword. You cannot have it both ways, unless you are Judy Martin.
Let me clue you in on how a guy becomes a boss at the FBI.
Merit
Suckhole office cats make the grade.
Field agents are overlooked. Sound familiar?
What is the common denominator among the newly promoted....is it a Masters Degree??? Maybe that would explain some of the choices...just wondering
Just because your one hell of a PO making many arrests, writing parkers, field contacts etc, doesnt mean you will be a good supervisor.
Better that you stay in patrol and get paid extra compensation rather than screwing up the other PO's.
Too bad,because the CPD would never institute the above paragraph.To make someone because of activity or inactivity SUCKS, look at Merit.
What you want to do, is give them in-basket problems (every day shit that happens and see how they handle it, NOT just GO's,special O's and the like).
As far as JFed is concerned he had law enforcement training, if you go to another Police Dept, what right do you have to wear their uniform if you didn't go thru their training!
The Blue,Grey, Tan,Business Suits etc: are all part of the overall picture. Its whats in them that counts.
As an aside, I was in traing, way before many of you came on the job and helped institute the FTO program. As far as training, there was a lot of fat that could have been taken out.There is no reason why a PPO can't be put on the street after 12 weeks of training if you have a good FTO program.
Be safe guys.
Who is Lt Sarlito's(1890) clout? She's as capable as Crump-Hale
3/16/2008 07:41:00 AM
---------
I don't know if this know-it-all asshole has any clout, but she is an attorney and will tell you everything there is to know about everything, whether she's asked or not. She's a retard that has probably never locked up a real criminal, or testified in a probably cause hearning, much less an actual trial but she'll tell you every aspect on how to do your job.
But she's got a degree and is a female so who knows how high she'll get promoted. Much to the dismay of anyone that has the misfortune of working for her.
Ive never seen a LT. that loved to micromanage jobs with her condescending, know-it-all, holier-than-thou attitude like she does. Shit, I'd be happy to see her promoted just to get her dumb ass off the street.
I have to laugh at every 1st district guy that has told me that she was a good boss when she was a Sgt. Makes going into 001 that much more amusing.
And to Ms Mary S:
Hey! Lieu! We can handle a distubance better if you weren't there MFing the offenders, victims, and witnesses and making an ass out of yourself! Dont worry though, when you're screaming in your condescending tones, nose to nose with a 300lb monster of a door man who just called the police because he didnt want to have to put his hands on an unruly patron that was just put out of the club,I'll still be there to back you up 'cause thats my job. I'll even make the arrest when you get the smack in the mouth that you so richly deserve... But I'm gonna high-five dude on the way into the station.

I have met the man. I've also worked for him, and let me just say this one thing:
The man is an absolute stand up individual, and a working PO's boss. He knows the importance of us blue shirts on the street and he will definately be missed.
My first encounter with him, he was no more than a few days in the district, on his way into work, and saw our team hitting a few buildings, minor off-air foot chase, etc, and before I knew who he was, he was pulled up on the apron of 1340 Larrabee and seeing if he could lend a hand.
He walked the halls in 018 like everyone else and treated everyone with respect. If you needed a word, he made the time, and if there was something he could do, he actually reached out and did it.
I personally wish you nothing but the best in your retirement. I hope its twice as long as you spent working for this city and the city actually works for you for a change, if only in the form of a pension.
You will be missed.
Talk about a dumb bunch of things to utter: 1st of all Schmitz was already a commander-he was moved to a lateral position. One that he is better suited for I might add. Some folks dont like his style, but he is the working police and is not afraid to get out in the streets and work. I worked for him and all he ever asked for was loyalty. Secondly, why would you say anything about a PO who lost a parent. That is not easy for anyone to handle. But you are the typical back-stabbing cop that kicks folks when they are down.
The Jefferson Tap incident was only looked at in such a magnitude because of the media re-playing the 1st tape involving the female bartender a million times. You are the same lame individual who bitches about the FOP, yet probably have never been to a meeting in your lame career. My prayers are with ALL COPPERS fighting to keep their jobs. And I pray that J-Fed has compassion for these very same coppers.
To: "Gee.....How come she could NEVER pass a promotional exam????? I'm really getting a little tired of this often repeated FALSEHOOD that there are these really"
What makes you think she didn't pass the exams? Have you got the scorecards or you just makeings some noise.
Each boss loking to be made exempt should have to go out in the private sector and apply for a $100k + job. If they can't bring back a job offer then they are not eligible for promotion with us. We would have about 2 qualified applicants with this criteria.
I have heard stories about the sarlito one in 018, and i have to say there havent been many good things. But she is a LT with the CPD so what can truly be expected. i have never worked a job with sooo many incompetent bosses. It truly is amazing!
Free to a good home: 3 Capt's, 6 Lt's, 20 Sgt's and an abundance of P.O.'s all looking to get out of the 003rd district.
So, after I finish my shift I stop for a beer. Fight breaks out, and I intercede. Bum get's thrown out, he's pissed and calls the police to say off-duty p.o. is drunk in a bar. One of the new, crazy inexperience W.C.'s comes on scene and orders me to blow. Keep up the morale.
W.C's will have to respond to any call of ap.odrinking/ disturbance. Do they have to respond to a homicide....criminal sexual assault....agg batt? This is crazyyyyy!!! What has J-Fed outline to combat crime? What does J-Fed know about this city, and then problems that the long hot summer will bring? Last question, the new promotios...did thjis guy promote without meeting the promotees in person?
Lt.Genessa Lewis from the Personnel Division, promoted today to Commander of the 002nd District.
I hate long posts, but can't help myself here:
I've been promoted twice, off the list, once in a first class and once in the third. (no, you don't know if I'm a Lt, Sgt of Det. based on that). I have no kids, no real need for a 2nd job, so I had time to study. I've been reading the GOs and SOs etc. since I came on, and I just tend to do well on tests. That said, let me also say:
(1) The tests this dept. gives do not identify the best people to promote. When 2 or 3 points is the difference between being in the first class and not getting promoted (as it was on the last sgt test), the test is crap. I've seen myself promoted twice while far more qualified people, including friends, will not have that chance.
(2) Merit is not a problem, esp given the above--the way we do merit in CPD is. Some people who deserve it make it through. But far too many don't, and far too many people who don't deserve it do. Some people simply don't test well. They get too anxious, or obligations prevent them from being able to spend the study time, or they get mixed up on how we do things vs. how we say we do things, or they read slowly, etc. Maybe this alone means they shouldn't be exempt. If you can't pass a single bs test this dept gives, I probably don't want you in a position as an administrator making policy, determining if I should lose my job, etc. But there are several people I know--and I'm sure more I don't know--who will not soon and probably never get promoted off a list who I would be grateful to have handle my shooting (detective)or would be proud and happy to work for in the field (sgt).
Just some thoughts.
The suicide watch is on for the 008th Dist tact Lt..........
3/16/2008 11:32:00 AM
Public Transportation Section too!
look at it all from another perspective: 1) J-Fed comes in, he really doesn't know anyone (with maybe some minor exceptions) in the CPD exempt; he appoints his top deputies (with a nudge from City Hall?), then allows them the freedom to recommend other command appointments, using as an aside the "resume" scam: the result...1) many who are connected (politically, socially, financially) get an appointment; 2) others who are connected, or needed, by virtue of gender or race, also are appointed; 3) the resume thing is wonderful window dressing, but has no relationship to a person's time on the street, their competence or intelligence (or lack of), or their relative ability to construct a coherent English sentence and communicate at a basic level; and so, the bottom line...the Department is as politically, organizationally, and morally corrupt, and intellectually bankrupt, as it has always been; it's just that the overwhelming significantly motivational forces now come from City Hall, instead of 35th Street....
Judy Martin is about to start her first week not looking too good. Her son gets into a fight with some on duty officers cause of his drunkeness Sat night. They end up taking him in and while in processing, he MF's all involved including supervisors while giving bogus info. He finally gets sober enough to say who he really is and what do u think happens? He is wisked away to 014 and on the hush hush, JM comes in her pajamas into 14 to pick up her son. Well just when we thought things have changed, well your wrong, its back to business as usual. No info of him in the system. Guess she owes that DC a favor now. God, i luv this job.
I came on the job right after the 002 stuff that Capt CW was involved with happened. I worked with an old timer who told me something that has stuck with me all these years. He said he'd rather have a sister in a whore house than a brother in the FBI. J-Fed proves the old timer right.
I think we should all step back and allow for the changes to settle in for a bit. We will see how the new Commanders take charge and watch for a little bit before making any rash judgements. There were quite a few good choices made and we should expect nothing but the best from them. The poor choices will make the glaring mistakes and hopefully be sent back down the chain where they belong.
C'mon Ralph have you no shame? You better watch the new duo in 024. They are not content and will be dangerous to work for.
Martinez is a real jagballs, he tried to spar me for not wearing my uniform to a beat meeting on my day off in 011. Like nobody knew I was an officer , I was the only white person at the meeting. You JAGBAG!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I should just twist my ankle in a city pothole while working collect IOD and sue the city for not being on top of their streets.
Anyone else wondering if they should have just taken the job at McDonalds? "A number 2 with cheese,got it. Please drive to the second window." Just think we could have been a supervisor by now living in the suburbs.
----------------------------
We have police and police supervisors living in the suburbs. Don't let that stop you.
Is that Scank f/lt still blowing around o24?
How about the fact that he kept Terry Wiliams around. The guy that sat around Narcotics, passing out cigars and bragging as a Sgt. with minimal time on the job, that he was going to be on the Lieutenants list one Friday years back. Lo and behold when his daddy's whack didn't come through,(this time) and he looked like a bigger asshole than he normally is, he hit the medical for months, if not a year. Then he comes back and the merit Lt. spot is pushed through, then Merit Capt and merit Commander. Mr. J-Fed,or anyone else,please show me the hard work that Terrence William did? I dare you! He always was and will always be a no nothing, daddy's boy, political hack piece of shit, no matter what his rank is.

Hey, 12:40, you're way off base with your comments about Powers. He died less than a month before that incident. Secondly, I knew Bill Powers.Did you? Did you ever work for him. Anyone and I mean anyone who ever knew him or worked for him will tell you he was a good boss and a great guy and NEVER fucked over any copper. Not even know nothing loud mouths like yourself.
There is no reason why a PPO can't be put on the street after 12 weeks of training if you have a good FTO program.
Be safe guys.
3/16/2008 03:32:00 PM
Are you kidding! The bare bone state program is 480 hours. That leaves out any hands on training, extra firearms and other scenario based training. Academy is lucky they have recruits that can read and shoot. Be safe guys! With a 480 hour trained recruit? The FTO program is in complete disarry. Look at the sgt in charge of the program. All smiles and nothing else. White shirts do not support the program so we need to extend recruit training. Even with 22 weeks of training recruits face a stone wall on the street. learn the facts first.
"Pallidin"
You are as full of shit as the bullshit you perperpetuate. When you and your "ilk" ask for a test that is truly fair, then we can talk, otherwise, keep wearing your pointy hood outfit, you piece of no good shit.
Geno Roy - gets caught doinking his nasty, two different baby daddy secretary at his summer home in Michigan by a neighbor who calls Roy's wife and dimes him out. His wife (and clout) has him served divorce papers in the lobby of 009 while everyone laughs at him. Shootings in 009 are at an all time high while all he is thinking about is getting trim from his office staff. Integrity...ethics....NOT!!! but who saved him from the chopping block? Thats right the 11th Ward (Daleys ward).

You forgot John Ball: Triple Merit
Bingo on the Bill O comment. Had cake walk of a no show career. Nice guy. No hard charger. Good friend with Dean A. Thinks Dean is best. Dont say much abot the mans judgement or character.
How can ALL the bosses that were there during the SOS scandal get promoted or retain there Command? Same shit, different day!
Inquiring minds want to know?? Crump-Hales--Isn't she the one while in field training in I think was the the 5th District who fled from a job and locked herself in the squad car while her FTO got his ass kicked on that assignment and she was out of harms way. Isn't that cowardice in the line of duty??
Crump-Hales!!!! She's smart as a whip! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The 022 Tact office has a case report that Crump-Hales wrote when she was a p.o. that describes a gun the was used as a blue steel semi-automatic REVOLVER
Hey 09:14:00
From your comments you don't know about BP.
He was responsible for getting that idiot, lazy and incompetent

Who went to the parking lot with M. Hoke in New Years eve. Dump shit Hoke forgot to tell his driver who was running all over the lot looking for safari Mike.
Who is Martins wack ?
well, her lawyer husband made a lot of money and I bet he gave a lot of this money to city hall people. And that is what you call wack.
I wonder how much of the criminal money that was earned or judgement money from suing the city and coppers went back to the pols. for that certain promotion
Is J-Fed really Daley's god-cousin-inlaw

I'll defend this Lt. You must be a bigot or the type that loves old school garbage, that women, only move up with sex. From what I know she backs her officers up. They're a few people in 024 that hate her and they hit this blog. People hate her and talk a lot of shit, but I don't see why.
This blog is one sided, sometimes you need both angles.
New rule, Chicago Police cannot drink anymore, ever, or be fired if caught.
New CHicago Police rule, DUI everyone and arrest for disorderly when drunks are about, J walking when drunk, Disorderly conduct, hammer the city yuppies and all till the attitude changes-on camera now. However, the w/c won't back it up.
Who is Lt Sarlito's(1890) clout? She's as capable as Crump-Hale
Hey she never works a full eight hours, she starts shit with the p/os, the zone and the public.
Never works a full eight hour shift
and her favorite saying is contempt of cop, never wants to approve felony charges
MERIT ............
Isn't that how Robert Hanson, the worst traitor in American History, got promoted.
Mr. Supt.: we already have that, like when an outfit copper is assinged to Organized Crime Sec.
MERIT ...........Ha!
I can't speak for anyone else but Powers but was a good man. He helped me when I needed it most. I also thought the Jefferson Tap thing was a bar fight. Everyone knows a law suit against the city is a winning lottery ticket. If I didn't work for CPD I'd have five or six myself.
J-Fed, If there was ever an honest test with honest promotions, you might not have cops that felt the need to drink away their sadness. You wouldn't have so many suicides either. Many a CPD has ended their life over the futility of this corrupt job, ie; I'm paid to enforce the law by the most corrupt entities in Illinois and possibly the country., the unfair testing process. ie; people announcing weeks before lists come out that they are on it, and even what district they are going to. I don't bother hoping that one day any of this will be legit. I am not a moron. I know how deeply entrenched the corruption in the city runs. I just count the days until I can flee to a municipality slightly less corrupt and certainly with less taxes.

I was one of the folks who held out hope that there would be a fresh start here at CPD with J-Fed, but Fridays promotions have sealed the deal, Chicago Police Dept is officially HOPELESS!
As a straight, white, male, with no phone call, I'll be a beat car patrolman for life. I'm too old 40something, to change jobs, BUT, if you are 35 or younger GET THE HELL OUT NOW!!! You will never have a fair shake in this shit hole.

Wait a minute.
I know all of the Martinez silliness first hand.
But, you went to a beat meeting, off-duty, paid at time and one-half (with a minimum of 3 hours pay), representing the department in front of citizens, and you can't put a uniform on?
I can't speak for anyone else but Powers but was a good man. He helped me when I needed it most. I also thought the Jefferson Tap thing was a bar fight. Everyone knows a law suit against the city is a winning lottery ticket. If I didn't work for CPD I'd have five or six myself.
Well sonny boy Powers fucked over numerous officers(without juice) I told a commander I was not going to do something that was Illegal and in turn he put your Boy Powers on me. He powers told me "to bad so sad" as he needed to please the commander???? Powers was nothing more then a coward pussy and the guys from Jefferson tap are Connected if they were only po's with no juice they would already be gone. CLOUT RULES!
I knew Bill Powers.Did you? Did you ever work for him. Anyone and I mean anyone who ever knew him or worked for him will tell you he was a good boss and a great guy and NEVER fucked over any copper. Not even know nothing loud mouths like yourself.
Bill Powers was in charge of the personal concerns program and FUCK over numerous officers who had no connections. Sorry to disappoint you, yet thats the truth. His son should be on the medical as he was crying and out of control. I found it troublesomeness that his gun had to be taken away from him. What would happen to you OFFICER. Lets be fair ask yourself that question?
Lillie in 003 (will they still speak English there)?...brand new nobody in 002?...T.W. to TRU (as pompous and arrogant as they come)?...J.D. (Mr. Personality) to 021?....and the list goes on and on...yeah, J-Fed really made a difference....
To all those who are ripping Bill Powers, lets not forget that day in the old Henrotin Hospital.
I'm retired now and living the good life but here's a little story about "Lucy Juicy Moy" you might enjoy. I remember when she was working Tac in 018 many years ago. There was the usual problem with the Michigan Ave. shoplifters that were usually handled by the Michigan Ave. footmen. Well she and her partner decided to pad their arrest activity by grabbing those shoplifting arrests. It went on for quite a while until the Tac Lt., a prince of a guy by the name of Jim Annotnocchi (sic?) arrived in 018, saw what was going on and told her that if she wanted to continue to arrest shoplifters that he would find her a beat car that she would like because arresting shoplifters was not the job of a Tactical Officer but that of a uniformed officer instead. She did her usual giggling and sucking up routine but stopped arresting shoplifters. Of course her stats plummeted.
I don't think I've ever met a more incompetent buffoon posing as a police officer in my life. She was and is an embarrassment to any Police Officer with an ounce of common sense or self respect. To think that they made her a Commander is unbelieveable and makes me glad I pulled the pin.

WoW!!!!Some one else thinks like me. I'm humbled. This department wont change unless every Sgt. in this dept gets transferred. This is the backbone of clout. When any CMMDr or Exempt make a spot who does he/she rely on? The Lt's and Sgt's that come allong for the ride. J-fed....wake up and change this pattern of clout!!!
Lucy Moy is a fucking joke. A DO-NOTHING cop in 018, a bigger DO-NOTHING MERITORIOUS DETECTIVE in Area 4, and an even BIGGER DO-NOTHING MERITORIOUS SERGEANT assigned to Labor/Management and Affairs and then a total DO-NOTHING MERITORIOUS LIEUTENANT assigned to Headquarters... Yeah right, J-Fed, HARD WORK will get you promoted. Get the fuck out of here and go back to the FBI, you're nothing but Daley's Errand Boy and all of us know it. GO SELL CRAZY SOME PLACE ELSE, WE'RE ALL STOCKED UP HERE.
How many exempts does it take to change a light bulb? Insert pun here.
Commander Geroges of 018 just holds the light bulb in the air and the world revolves around him.
Crump-Hales is a medical abuser wonder, too. Obviously, that is never taken into account.
OK, any of the new Commanders/Exempts actually legit? Has everyone been once, twice, thrice merited along the way? The Sup couldn't find anyone who made their way up the ladder the hard way? This is very sad as nothing has changed and it's the same old tune, different faces.Glad I'm in the KMA club.

Martinez might be a cartoonish figure, but your unwillingness to dress appropriately shows that you have a total lack of respect for the citizens on your beat, your supervisors, your colleagues and yourself. Please grow up.
Hey, this punchline thing is getting good.
You should do it more often.
If you want even a modicum of happiness....Know this, This corrupt police dept, fake supt, gangster mayor are never going to change. You have to! We make good money,more than the ASA's or PDs, be proud of your achievements. If you have time, take advantage of school because there are great jobs waiting for you when you retire if you want them, but they all want a masters degree and Lewis U. will do nicely. Air Marshalls, Police Chiefs, Sheriffs, Campus Security Chiefs,etc. Chicago is a filled with a lot of great people, just overlook the punks that we have to work under and think of all the wonderful people we get to work WITH. Never ask an exempt if you want the correct answer. Ask one of those Lts. that never seems to go anywhere. He/she is probably the one who should be the Supt. Lets just treat the police we respect, respectfully. If you dont expect anything, you won't be disappointed. I only expect anything anymore from SCC!
I never worked for Lt Powers. I didn't have clout and in fact the first time I ever met him was when I went down to talk to him. That was when he helped me. I was only talking from personal experience. I found him to be a good, kind, man. The truth is, if I had been in that bar and heard those jerks make a crack about Powers I believe I would have done the same thing. Exactly.

He was a political hack hatchet man for exempts w/ personal vendettas real or imagined against P.O.s
who were placed into a program fraught w/inconsistencies.
The Truth? That's based on interpretation. More like Bullies w/beer muscles looking for an excuse.Reprehensible @ best.
to: 03/18, 04:03 am...very good points made..I think that I actually met a few of the Lts and Capts who fit your description, men and women who recognized the fraud and corruption of the organization (not only in the CPD, but from City Hall), but had the character to refuse to compromise their integrity and "play the game"...I guess that they didn't get promoted, but they lived their lives with their integrity intact, a more profound statement of their professional lives than the title that appears in front of their names...
You morons sticking up for Powers, got it all wrong. You were all part of his experiment as he was working towards his Psych. degree. I am sorry he died of cancer (correct me if I am wrong), but he helped himself and exempts before he really helped any no-clout P.O.
It is business as usual... one boss protecting the others and all the new bosses ready to F^&* you for not having a mirror shine on your shoes.....to go with your three bus checks....
Let's start a Jullian Calender to see how many days it will be before someone delivers court papers to Kirby telling her that she WILL HAVE TO TESTIFY in court as a witness on all of the skeletons she has been keeping in the closets of the bosses that promoted her....Hey Deb your day is coming... trust me the balls have been set into motion....

To 3:28 pm - even better said, my friend. So true. It always irked me to hear someone describe a bullshit move that a boss made as he had no choice or his hands were tied or what else was he supposed to do? How about having the courage to make that choice of standing up to your moronic supervisor and at least try to fight for what is right?
You don't have to tell me your stories about Powers. Like I said, I didn't work for him and he didn't know me either. I went to him for help and as a cop helping another cop he was a kind and extremely helpful person. If any police officer had ever come to me like that I don't think I would've been able to have been as helpful. It was an observation, not a contest to see who say something meaner. We all remember people who have picked us up when we were down. On this job, too many would like to keep you there.
OK, any of the new Commanders/Exempts actually legit? Has everyone been once, twice, thrice merited along the way? The Sup couldn't find anyone who made their way up the ladder the hard way?
Just one .... JK 008
Lucy Moy made "meritorious" detective with a total award history of 11 Honorable Mentions, while other officers put in for meritorious detective had numerous DC's, other awards, hundreds of honorable mentions and quality arrests. I have a copy of her "merit" resume when she was made and I will dig it out a be glad to send to you SCC for all to see. She's was and is a fucking joke. Another Poster Child for why this department and its leadership is so fucked up.
