He got the Martha Stewart charges of lying to the feds. Proves that the feds never had a case for civil rights violations. All they can prove is that he lied to the feds after saying one thing in 2003and another several years later.
016 District Worker said... Rash of armed robberies by m/1s in 016. Keep doing work in ghetto districts you asswipes instead of bidding here and helping protect homeland. Bt 1633 and 1634 have fallen. 1632 is half fallen. Lot of coppers and city workers in 1631 beat and thats next( no help from 3rd watch). Gang chief lives off Northwest Highway so that Safe Edison Park thing is a lie. Have a nice day!
KEEP WORKING IN THE GHETTO INSTEAD OF BIDDING HERE AND PROTECTING THE HOMELAND? What about you, you lazy cocksucker? While I'm in the "ghetto" earning my salary for the taxpayers, why dont you protect my "homeland"..... because you are a 16th District pussy who has never been the police and you do not know how to protect the "homeland"! FUCK OFF.... DO YOUR FUCKING JOB, CRYBABY!
10/20/2008 11:58:00 PM Hey fuckface I did my whole career in ghetto, I probably have more awards and honorables than you have arrests. Go to Tommy's and tell those pigs all about your amazing drop cases you have from 025 or 015 while joe is sticking up the Citgo down the street! Dork. FYI here's a list. From 18JUN07-31Jul08 6 Homicides-4 Agg Batt Handgun. 5339 Luna 3405 Laramie 6511 Natoma 3432 Lavergne 4660 Milwaukee 6505 Nashville Homicides 4848 Irving 4000 Milwaukee 6150 Henderson 6400 Irving Also Head of P Stones lives at 5701 W Higgins: Head of Spanish 4ch 7800 NW Highway:Head of Latin Disciples 6950 W. Higgins. There are more but I think I made my point. Have a nice day!
OFF TOPIC.... Is there actually people handing in paperwork to go to this new strike force unit? I have heard about people doing this, but have not actually met anyone. Does anyone have any info on this topic ? My opinion only... Yoy have to be out of your mind, or a total kiss ass to do it !!!!
of course he is hasnt been any good anti police stories gracing the front pages lately... and with Rezko talking who knows what is coming for Chicago politicians so why not get the attention away and hammer the police!!! unreal
Anyone who was working with recruit James Doyle was murdered on the CTA Bus and when Fahey and O'Brien were killed at 80th and Morgan on their way back from Doyle's funeral will recall that the Wilson brothers were lucky they even made it to trial. Arresting Burge, what shit!
Guilty or not guilty - it does not matter. Just proves - do not go out of your way to "make" a case. Let what ever happens-happen. Do not get hurt, back up each other, go home to your family and collect your pension.
What bullshit and a total waste of money and other resources have been pissed away over the last twenty five years over allegations of physical abuse.
Instead of creating new methods of policing for the present and future, these liberal Northwestern University cock suckers are stuck in the past while at the same time trying to collect cash from the city.
i wonder how many future burge's are out there right now. bring in those heads boys like we used to. i wonder if burges boss's told him he was the man doing a great job, and the other commanders were dogs. the sad part is some fools are still out there playing lose with the truth. the difference is burge had reason to believe he would be protected todays hard charger has no hope of protection. 2 more years an im in arizona , i may have been a dog but the feds wont be at my door just my grand kids.
Are they going to go after other retired cops? If they are found guilty does the city still pay them their pension? This could be a great way to save the city some money.
Just saw the press conference...so it took 5 years to figure out that maybe Burge lied....so is the real story that he can give up Daley. Remember, whoever gives it up first gets the "A" deal..and so it begins...
GOD BLESS JON BURGE! And a big f**ku to u coward feds. Go in any ghetto hood in this city and try taking down the local gang/drug lord thats truly terrorizing his own people instead of picking on an aging Warrior! By the way, where's WHITEY, u cowards!!!!!
Wow, I can't believe that they are going after Burge. Is anyone going to hold a benefit for him here in Chicago so he can adequately defend himself in court?
Fucking SHAME...this only means that after you retire & leave this job long long behind you , you will still be looking over your shoulder for the dept or feds to bring up an old CR# & hunt you down!
I'm all for nailing someone for purjury but...Does this mean that the FEDS will now also look into all the lying under oath by these shitheads at grand juries and trials? Because I'm sure we've all seen it on several occassions where pooky changes story half way through a trial or says they were there when proof is shown that they were not. Nothing is done with these people. Why?!!!?
I don't agree with the "old days" shortcut methods, I believe that we as coppers should treat those we come in contact with respectfully and reasonably until we have a reason not to, and we need to be careful not to let ourselves tarnish one person because someone we dealt with earlier was a scumbag, would not help, etc. That said, do we really need to go back mega-years to try to prosecute some weak charges that are not even germane to the original issue. You accused him of torture, you can't honestly prove it, now the full power of the federal government is brought to bear to stick some bullshit charges. Reminds me of the Rodney King case...and what a fine citizen he turned out to be. The LAPD Sgt. saved his life by not allowing deadly force when it was justifiable, and gets prosecuted because minorities would rather support the like-colored criminals that prey upon them, than back the law that would stop them.
I agree, I have been locking up criminals until today, but from now on, case suspended. No more talking witnesses into testifying, no more building cases. You want anarchy, you want your "brothers" to rape, kill, drug and pillage your community, you got it. Shove your oath up your ass, I took an oath to protect and serve the citizenry, not to be villified for bullshit based upon some ghettofied liberal agenda. Let these ridiculous lefters try to control these savages with their respect and reason...lol...good luck.
This is pure 100per cent Bull Shit. Liberal government at it's best. SSC I was a detective for over 24 yrs. and have worked South, West, and North Sides. I never saw a "black box" electric, whatever. I saw a lot of things but never that. I did not know Burge, but did know several of the guys who worked for him. All Bull Shit. Check who is behind this. People's Law Office, Slim Coleman & Co, the liberal Revs, Obama's People. See who profits from all this? Hope all are well armed for the future.
This may be Fitzgerald trying to show that he's not an evil Republican snd keep his job. I predict that Obamessiah will not replace Fitzgerald immediately. He will be left in place to continue this investigation and to pursue Blagojevich. Blago will be the sacrifice to show Obamessiah fights Democrat corruption. Indicting Blago will also justify a wrist-slap sentence for Tony Rezko, who will testify against Blago (and only Blago). Blago will be indicted and forced from office - then after a long trial will plead out to minor charges for no jail time.
However, while I think Fitz is currying favor with the Left on this, I don't think he thought it through. Daley was Cook Cty SA then, and the city has protected Burge; this could embarrass him, which Obamessiah doesn't want now. Than again, this might be setting up to push Daley out for Jackson Jr.
OT for a minute my Brothers and Sisters: Why don't we give the Supt. some air? I don't know the man personally but he came into a hell of a mess that took years to create. Idiot Cmdrs. stealing and going to prison and scandals everywhere. I've been on the job a long time and have worked in SHIT. The Supt. is trying to right the sinking ship and I find no fault of his if it takes time. And to all the young POLICE who take offense to him wearing the uniform, he knows more about law enforcement than you'll ever know. Also personal attacks on peoples' looks,personalities or spouses-children should be kept to yourselfs. None of us are perfect. I have met the Supt's wife on several occassions and I'll tell you she is a FIRST CLASS ACT. She's the nicest person I've come across in a long time(and easy on the eyes fellas but she's married). Let's do the job and forget the B.S. bickering. Jesus, we're CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS!
They wanted him , now they got him.I think I saw him spit on the sidewalk last year . WTF ! After over 20 years they come up with he lied . They couldn't get him any other way. Hey Fitz. Good Job you fuckin' tool.
if you boys don't stand together in unity with Jon Burge, I promise you Daley will walk all over you. The demand should be made lous and clear, if they have a valid charge against Burge then they MUST have one for Daley. He was the top dog lawyer of Cook County. Demand accountability and, if Patrick Fitzergerald is prosecuting Burge then so should he Daley.
AND if Obama is elected, Fitzgerald will be fired in a heartbeat, replaced with a more friendly attorney.
Burge and Cozzi,the two poster boys on why you should DEPOLICE. Their out to get us,cover your ass, Police work as we knew it has gone the way of the dinosaur.Just give them a smile and a case report.
mr mayor great interview and smile on the news clip. no you werent the mayor..then..but you are now cough**weis** cough..400 milion in the hole cough** **cough
i knew john at the old area 2 on cottage and one fine man who if he saw you on the street went out of his way to say hello, never had a chip on his shoulder or a super ego like most of the irish fucks on the job who were for most part horses asses who were ridiculed behind their backs,if Burge goes so should Daley as he was running the states attnys office or this might just be Fitzgeralds way of getting Daley. hope he goes down
"That was a 1987 arson fire that killed seven people, including Hobley's wife and child. Hobley remains under federal investigation for that crime, even though he received a pardon during former Gov. George Ryan's clemency decision that emptied the state's Death Row."
Madison Hobley is the star witness? That's what they got? Well I guess you can t bring our his murder conviction in court since Ryan pardoned him. If Ryan hadn't pardoned him there would be no chrges brought forth because they could bring all that out then.
OFF TPOIC: When voting on touch screen: The first page with presidential candidates will also have the State of Il Constitutional proposal on it, easy to miss if just looking at candidates name..
We all know even though it seems bad in todays world, Burge and those under him kept crime at a lower rate as people feared the police. I spoke with many older folks who knew or worked for Burge and most of the felons who are complaining they were tortured were truly guilty. Thank you to liberal America for ruining this country.
I think we should show some loyalty to our fromer brother in blue. By calling in sick,stop writing tickets or stop arresting the animals. Let Daley have his city the way he wants it! Wasn't he the State's Atty when all this was suppose to have taken place? F this city and the dept. suck up!
Patrick “Ham Sandwich” Fitzgerald finally got Jon Burge indicted. I’ll bet he’s really proud of himself. He and his police-hating cabal must be pouring the Champaign tonight. It’s too bad he didn’t use some of that energy he used to ensnare Burge to get some of the real rats that are ruing this city. Daley uses the city treasury as his own piggy bank. Jesse Jack-ass-son doesn’t file income taxes for years, but the US Attorney turns a blind eye toward his crimes. How many businesses has Jack-ass-son shaken down under the pretense of civil rights activities. Daley’s fingerprints are all over this abomination.
This is just another example of why the smart thing to do when you go to work is to put your hands in your pockets and not take them out for your shift, except to take a piss. And don’t think that Weis didn’t play a part in this fraud. The FEDS are not your friends!!! Most of them couldn’t make it as the street police. Hang in there, Jon. Fuck the Feds.
just watched the five o clock news-- this poor burge guy has gotten more press than gacy. if the government wants you apparently they will get you at any cost. mr. burge, i have your back 100 percent and will fight for you. you are the one who took care of the wilson brothers who murdered 2 of our fraternal brothers. 2 pieces of shit who were lucky to ever see a cell wall. god bless burge, a leader of men who still cares about what is right. remember nifong, in the end when fitzy and the rest of his cocksuckers are thru with this witch hunt, you will be the ones who are sued for what you did to burge. you will have to answer to your misconduct. fuck all you fbi jags, die in hell, you to mr j-no balls.
Alot of people here talk about "real" police by where ya work..what area.It really does not matter today.Dude does not care anymore...there is zero respect for the police these days..there is no fear of us any longer.I only have 11yrs on this job and do not know nor ever worked with/for Burge..but i'll say this..there WAS a fear of the Police back then by criminals.Those of us who have only spent a short time on this job need to listen to the "old timers" who had seen and done more in 5 yrs than most of us ever will.We may think were tough and "hard" but in reality the criminals who were delt with by the now "old timers"...do see a diffrence...and it's not good
DALEY: We have good police officers. I know you want to beat them all up all the time. But we have good men and women in the Police Department, he said, adding that 90.9 percent are hard-working men and women who want to do the job the right way.
So the U.S. ATTY has sat on this for how long?Great timing to ensure the city burns to the ground in less than 2 wks.EVEN SHARPTON is here!This 3 ring circus is so unfunny,and we're the ones who will get blamed.
After listening to US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald regarding this matter I would be hesitant to submit to a deposition in a civil case in the future. Also the City should allow me to pick my own lawyer because the individual they provided Burge apparently did a poor job.
If an individual, with numerous felony convictions, stated that I did something inappropriate and the Feds believed, after listening to Flint Taylor, him I could be in trouble.
Also the Mayor, did you see him today, is not going to stand behind me!
Reluctantly I must demand full immunity prior to testifying and even then if I am not 100% sure I cannot respond.
Seems like no matter what the laws say, as long as it's a cop or former one, "they" will go after any little piece of bullshit to make the "others" feel like "they" did something for them. SUX!
2/3rd of the department wasn't even on the Job when Burge retired. Therefore, you black glove, hair gel wearing, tuff talking tavern warriors can refrain from subjecting us to your idiocy.
Now lets go get the bad guys............ UNFINGBELIEVABLE. We fight for death row inmates yet we kill unborn babies. Sad, very sad. America as I once knew it is gone. CHICAGO IS A SEWER
Look at Burge. Look at him on the news. Watch him.
That's your future.
He is you in your retirement. You, who will also be haunted by the arrest of those criminals that society has since forgiven. Haunted by that society that now wants to punish you for making the murderer suffer.
You see, people forget murders. They forgive murderers. As time passes, people look at murder and they think it wasn't so bad. Even when someone burns their own children to death. Time heals those wounds.
Then, people get mad that the murderer suffered. The murderer is still alive. He spent all that time in jail. He didn't have to be in jail that long. That was too long. We never should have put him in jail in the first place. Those other people are dead. We can't remember them anymore. The murderer is still alive. We saw him on TV. The murderer needs our help now.
The people tell themselves that the murderer probably didn't do it anyway. And even if he did, we can't remember that far back anyway. We just can't be sure anymore, so we'll just free him.
Then, the people come after you. They want your pension, your home, your reputation, your peace of mind, and your freedom. They want you to suffer. It's all your fault that the murderer went to jail. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't feel bad that the murderer on TV was in jail. We don't think he did whatever that was anymore. And, even if he did, we don't care anymore. We forgot why he was there anyway.
It's your fault this happened. It's all your fault. If it wasn't for you, it never would have happened.
Don't feel too bad. The people will forgive you in time, probably after you die. By then, they'll move on to blaming someone else for the way their lives turned out. But for you, it will never end.
Remember that the next time you reach for your handcuffs.
For the first time ever,I am NOT proud to be an AMERICAN.With multitudes of scandal,political corruption and flagrant thievery,THE U.S. ATTY chose at a precarious time in history to remove a lethal,incendiary piece of frozen meat from his freezer.When the city is burning on the 4th call the FEDS.The timing is sophmoric,moronic and is going to get good people hurt.
another of fat phil cline dirtbag boss buddies bites the dust...only surprised he didn't flee the country long ago....he must have great dirt to barter with or he will die in jail...its called karma...don't forget this coward didn't operate in a vacuum, had plenty of support above and below his rank, thank God one of his legit cop killer arrestee died so he won't be set free, maybe thats a gift to legit police from the Feds; if so thank you from all us honest souls for not making a good cops death be made worse by the comming Burge debacle. KMASGT
Anyone catch USA Fitz say that he got Burge charged for what ever charge he could get to stick...just like Al Capone,s tax evasion charge. Sum of these cases are 25years old, and they're still hunting down old cops for BS. Beware what you do today can effect you many moons from now...
Everyone keeps talking about these poor victims who were tortured by A/2 Detectives! Wouldn't the real victims be the ones who were murdered by these scumbags??? Holy Shit, only in a sick and depraved liberal Country!!! How far will people be pushed before we revolt against this fucked up Government!!
"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. " ----Thomas Jefferson
Are they going to go after other retired cops? If they are found guilty does the city still pay them their pension? This could be a great way to save the city some money.

Give me a Fu*&ing Break !! I'm a cop just like most everyone else here that reads the blog.But I was trained to uphold the law.And most important.If during your arrest,if the offender wants to fight you and defeat the arrest prior to putting on the cuffs.Then it's a fight for survival,period ! But Cozzi wasn't in a fight for survival, he put cuffs on a drunk, asshole that was in a wheel chair and proceeded to whoop the guys ass. I don't give a rat's ass what any other copper thinks.That was a Bitch Ass move ! And now everyone wants to write how wrong it is to judge in hindsight. The only thing that I do agree on was that it was Bullsh%* to come back and try to convict him a second time. But what Cozzi did was still a "Bitch Move ". Burge was a little before my time but I still have more than 10 years on the job working Northside, Westside, Southside, and back to Northside.

Do your own fucking police work you lazy fukstick.
Can you imagine the balls on this fucking pussy trying to shit on coppers working the shit districts?
FUCK YOU SHITSACK! Go call your own district out as the pussies they are for not policing their own streets.
You ain't the police motherfucker, otherwise you'd never have the tiniest balls to even think of trying to belittle the working copper for not coming up to 016 and saving your pussy ass!
Go kill yourself you brave ex-ghetto copper and put US all out of YOUR misery.
Better yet, go back to looking out your window at the "crime" running rampant in 016, close your eyes, and WISH you had the balls to do what we do for a living, you pathetic bullshitter liberal bookworm crybaby.

10/20/2008 11:58:00 PM
Hey moron I did my entire time in the westside so dont give me that bullshit line. Looks like you dont have the time to bid here so keep chasing that one bagger and I will try to look after the homeland. You sound like a complete tool, do you know that cops are laughing at you when you come in with that piss bum for his 1 rock or that DOPW? Get a clue PPO just cause you are assigned to a "ghetto" does not mean you have any clue on being the POLICE.
Hmmph. Torture of prisoners in Area 2 and Area 3? Damn, I worked in both detective areas, about that time, but didn’t hear a thing. Those of us in General Assignments were only one floor away, so you’d think we’d at least hear some screaming. But then, our typewriters made a lot of noise, as we merrily unfounded damage to property, simple battery, and theft cases, to make the boss look good. We didn’t usually actually arrest anyone, so didn’t need to torture, we just booked in on arrests by the district guys. Come to think of it, though, the lights did dim a few times. Strike that. I don’t want to get called to testify, I just want to continue getting my pension. I’ve reached a milestone. I’ve collected more in pension than I got in salary from the CPD. I hope some of the rest of you poor bastards can someday say the same, but it won’t work out for you unless you keep your eyes on what is really important. The first and the sixteenth. Bless you all, even the guy who told me to go F myself a few days ago. I tried. It was fun, but I hurt my back.
016 District Worker said... Rash of armed robberies by m/1s in 016. Keep doing work in ghetto districts you asswipes instead of bidding here and helping protect homeland. Bt 1633 and 1634 have fallen. 1632 is half fallen. Lot of coppers and city workers in 1631 beat and thats next( no help from 3rd watch). Gang chief lives off Northwest Highway so that Safe Edison Park thing -------------------------------- I would love to bid there and work for a purpose (protect tax payers, my family, people that give a shit)but the truth is you have to have alot more time on the job than I do to get there. So for the time being I'm going to have to stay in the ghetto and 016 will continue to be filled with coppers high on senority for better or worse. P.S. J is this you?
In 1986 there was a civil rights case in Federal Court. The police officers were sucessful in their suit. The superintendantat at the time was caught lying in the case. A CR# was even issued on him. IAD, the feds did nothing. Washington was the Mayor. Getting the picture boys and girls?
For all the Burge haters out there, several officers were present when Burge told them, quite firmly, don't fuck this up by touching these guys...Only after the Detectives were done with the interrogations and the Wilsons were headed to or already at 26 and Cal did they end up with any injuries..Burge has been the scape goat for the sins of others who were so selfish that their anger was more important then justice for O'Brien and Fahey. Burge might go to jail in order to ensure justice for O'Brien and Fahey and those who fucked this up, well you just have to live with yourselves.. It's terrible Burge has been persecuted like this and you can hate the feds all you want this but make no mistake, coppers did this to Burge and they lack his courage to do the right thing..As for any black box, there was zero evidence of any injuries caused by anything electrical..Back in the day some clever detectives had props they used as pretend lie detectors which did nothing to the defendant except trick him into thinking he was on a lie box..Everybody in this investigation knows this but the corrupt defense lawyers fabricated this electrocuting claim to get their clients off and they even got some detectives, who were less then good at their job but they claim there were other reasons they weren't given better cases to work on, to provide additional innuendo that a "black box" was frequently used..Of course these detectives never actually observed anything cause if they had they'd be just as wrong for not stopping it. This is racial baloney and the worst part is everyone stopped caring about O'Brien and Fahey along the way, except Burge that is...Sad day...
First, this wasn't a cop being a little rough when making an arrest. This was a commander who not only participated in torture, he created new and interesting ways to do and to promote it to other detectives. He gave a black eye to this department all across the country. Is he really a sympathetic figure?
Second, in many cases, the torture was being done to people who did NOT commit the crime. We have a death penalty moratorium in this state because of the more than a dozen people who confessed under torture who turned out to be innocent.
So, sure, you'll say they might not have committed the crime but they were not "innocent." Then you're missing the bigger point that the person who committed the murder was NOT discovered and punished, and out there perhaps committing additional crimes.
Third, you take this case as an example of why you shouldn't do aggressive police work???? Give me a break. If you are not out there creating means of torture and systematically torturing dozens of people, this case doesn't mean shit in terms of how you do your job.
Yes, times aren't good now. Yes, there are legit concerns about getting jammed for doing what you thought you should do or because you made a mistake, but that is very different from this. If you use Burge as an excuse to lay down on the job, then you are full of shit and looking for excuses not to work.

I have met the Supt's wife on several occassions and I'll tell you she is a FIRST CLASS ACT. She's the nicest person I've come across in a long time(and easy on the eyes fellas but she's married). Let's do the job and forget the B.S. bickering. Jesus, we're CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS!

First I have to say HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA and HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Don't try to pretend to be the police. We know you're in J-Feds "think tank" group so just stop it. Now go back to your desk and come up with more suckass ideas for your master and maybe someday you will get your merit spot.
Anyone who was working with recruit James Doyle was murdered on the CTA Bus and when Fahey and O'Brien were killed at 80th and Morgan on their way back from Doyle's funeral will recall that the Wilson brothers were lucky they even made it to trial. Arresting Burge, what shit!
I'm a City tradesworker who remembers the day that these two Police Officers were killed. I have family members who worked for the CPD.
If the Wilsons hadn't made it to the station alive no one would have cared. I lived in 22 (19th Ward) at the time. The bastards should have gotten the death penalty.
Daley, Blago, the corrupt preachers and reverends..... walking around free as they CONTINUE to rip all of us off.
Burge, what ever he did, it was 30 years ago. The BS about the civil trial perjury was just their way to hang the prick.
U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald knows he is going bye-bye soon with a new president. No matter if it is Obama or McCain. He needed a big one to write the book about. And this one is the big one for him.
Not to mention that J-Fed probably had some role in this indictment. J-Fed needed to have the heat taken off him and the crime stats. This arrest will make most of the minority communities in Chicago happy and their minds off J-Fed for a while.
Take a look at the indictment. A question was asked of Burge through a written iterogatory(if you've been involved in civil suits you know what this is). The question was basically have you tortuterd anyone at area two and do you know of anyone torturing a citizen at area two. Burge answered "No". That's it folks! That's why they locked him up today. The G has said that since the special prosecuters determined that there was some abuse going on at area two, Burge was lying in the written answers he provided, through his lawyer, in the interrogatories. WOW! This is scary people.....real scary. Keep going that extra mile guys. F**K no! We got to give them the police they want. The police they have asked for and the police they are demanding. Burge was a good cop.....rough around the edges but torture???? hell no! Maybe a crack upside the head sometime but big f'in deal. That's not going to make me confess to killing my kids, what about you? And besides....how many times do you think that a commanding officer of a violent crimes unit is involved in the interrogation of a suspect? I'll tell you from experience....virtually never. These pukes are all jumping on the Burge gravy train. I don't know. I'm so frustrated, so disappointed. I used to live this job, doing the right thing, helping people, putting bad guys away. I want to quit. I really do. But I need the job for a little bit longer. Maybe I'll just quit doing anything. I'm going to protect mine....and yours, but if the person killed is nothing to me.....I'm sorry, can't go the extra mile, can't take any chances. I'll just do the reports and go to the next case and keep repeating this.
"another of fat phil cline dirtbag boss buddies bites the dust...only surprised he didn't flee the country long ago....he must have great dirt to barter with or he will die in jail...its called karma...don't forget this coward didn't operate in a vacuum, had plenty of support above and below his rank, thank God one of his legit cop killer arrestee died so he won't be set free, maybe thats a gift to legit police from the Feds; if so thank you from all us honest souls for not making a good cops death be made worse by the comming Burge debacle. KMASGT"
----Go fuck yourself sgt!! you lowlife piece of shit
Hey 11:13am...why did you take this job....you are NOW going to lay down because BURGE is indicted for lying to feds about stuff from the 80's? hang it up and move on, useless!!
for info of 10.21 at 9,39 my apoligys i ysed the english version of his name john instead of the dutch german version jon my fault im sorry, but i did have wonderful mems of jon and his gang at 91st and cottage in the 70s and can say i never saw instances of torture
Poor Andrew and Jackie Wilson. Poor Madison Hobley. Pooe Edgar Hope.Poor Reggie and Jerry Mahaffey.Some of the most evil mutts that have stole oxygen.They should have been put to sleep.And the midget says it's not his fault. Nothing is his fault.It's always someone else's fault. Good luck to John Burge. John,sure hope you have some info put away for a day like this.
To "Twenty year Homicide Dick": two words - - spell check; from your old pals at (the former) Paul's Swiss Chalet (on Western where old jon had a few cocktails from time to time) ..count your blessings...
OT what the hell is this OBAMA RALLY in Grant Park I am hearing about?
Are the Chicago Taxpayers paying to have this event protected,cleaned,and maintained by Chicago city workers when we are in the midst of layoffs and hiring freezes. Are you fucking kidding me?
Runway Ron said... I know this is off topic but this is total bull-shit.....To the media who read this blog.......When are you going to ask and get the answers to how many Police Officers we have and where they are working.
As for officer Stewart. She is carried on the airport daily A/A record and assigned to..........dig a little.
New Tact Lt to be named on Friday for the embattled 025. JG is leaving the district and AC will be taking over.
10/21/2008 12:07:00 PM
Why not put TC back where he belongs? The man has the respect of his officers and gets results. Oh yeah, I forgot...you don't need either as long as you have LAPA credentials and a ride on Avila's coattails.
So far the only thing AC has taken over is the lunch buffet at Carniceria Jimenez. The man takes up two chairs and can't support his own weight even while sitting. He's one bandito who's definitely had one too many Fritos.
Remember; Burge was a lieutenant. You don't make rank unless you know someone.....then you owe someone. He only did what he was told to do: to get a confession.
Why would it be a sad day? Jon Burge is guilty period overwhelming evidence.
If the evidence was so overwhelming why wasn't he charged by the feds whgen it was allegedly occurring? because they had nothing then and they have nothing now, which is why they hit him with a trumped-up purjury charge, he will beat this case easily and hopefully sue the shit out of the feds.....
Many months ago on SCC, I summarized my early December phone conversation with the then FBI SAC, Philadelphia.
In our conversation, I emphasized the demoralizing effects of the deeply-entrenched political clout that has made the CPD the most dysfunctional big-city PD in the nation: sinecure assignments, incontrovertible evidence of rigged promotions and no objective criteria for awards and extracurricular education opportunities (FBI-Quantico, NUTI, etc.)
I enthusiastically welcomed him as top cop, speaking of his golden opportunity to break the clout stranglehold. As an "outsider", he could bring desperately needed reforms to the CPD clusterfuck. I envisioned him restoring integrity, excellence, pride, professionalism, honor and morale. Our best and brightest officers would rise through the ranks. No longer would the inept morons and clout babies manage the CPD.
I even specifically named the most outstanding and respected boss in the entire dept.
Later, I asked him to give a categorical and unequivocal written CPD defintion of "merit" (i.e.: CLOUT). He never responded to this simple request.
The Jody Weis "honeymoon" ended long ago. He has repeatedly proven himself to be nothing more than the feckless puppet of the corrupt Shortshanks. He speaks incessant bullshit. All talk; no action.
Despite my initial optimism and naivete, I can only sadly conclude that Jody P. Weis is just another clueless careerist and political hack extraordinaire--an abysmal failure as CPD Supt. He knows it and King Richard II knows this all too well. Unless you are delusional, YOU know it too.
While we both condemn ad hominem attacks as far beyond the pale of civility, the rest of your post is utter drivel.
YOU are in dire need of a reality check. This also applies to Mr. Weis.
OT for a minute my Brothers and Sisters: Why don't we give the Supt. some air? I don't know the man personally but he came into a hell of a mess that took years to create. Idiot Cmdrs. stealing and going to prison and scandals everywhere. I've been on the job a long time and have worked in SHIT. The Supt. is trying to right the sinking ship and I find no fault of his if it takes time. And to all the young POLICE who take offense to him wearing the uniform, he knows more about law enforcement than you'll ever know. Also personal attacks on peoples' looks,personalities or spouses-children should be kept to yourselfs. None of us are perfect. I have met the Supt's wife on several occassions and I'll tell you she is a FIRST CLASS ACT. She's the nicest person I've come across in a long time(and easy on the eyes fellas but she's married). Let's do the job and forget the B.S. bickering. Jesus, we're CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS!
10/21/2008 02:44:00 PM ________________________________ No, you're no police officer. But nice try.
He's had MORE than a fair chance and he's proven he is not a leader of men.
Uh, it's only okay to talk about Weis' wife if you're complimenting her looks???
Why not put TC back where he belongs? The man has the respect of his officers and gets results. Oh yeah, I forgot...you don't need either as long as you have LAPA credentials and a ride on Avila's coattails.
Huh? Respect of WHAT officers? JG is legendary for his goofs many years ago, but he's done a great job so far and raised activity by over 60% over the guy you say is "respected". TC and his sister made LT in the same class, and their dad was an "old time boss". Big surprise. JG is NOT LAPA, NOT merit and not beholden to any politician. Look into TC's Federal beef while he was in 018...may as well be wearing a hood to roll call.
Lot of people posting on this thread and others not to do any police work. Do nothing, dont' give Daley any revenue, don't do shit, go home safe, yada yada yada.
If you do nothing, then what do we need cops for?
How about this? Do your job the way you're trained to do it. Don't motherfuck everyone, don't slap anyone unless you have to, be professional but do your job.
Look out for everyone, be careful, be professional, but more importantly, don't be a dogass.
When everyone is a dogass, then the whole thing goes to shit. When it all goes to shit and the city has to lay coppers off because it can't pay them, then don't whine about it.
Political Witch Hunt. Every one of those assholes deserved to be tortured. ------------------------------------- Interesting... I wonder what fascinating tales Finnegan and Herrera would tell with the judicious application of a little direct current to their gonads.
I MEAN, torture IS ok if you just use it on CRIMINALS, right? And aren't home invasion, burglary and kidnapping CRIMES...?
Why would it be a sad day? Jon Burge is guilty period overwhelming evidence.
If the evidence was so overwhelming why wasn't he charged by the feds whgen it was allegedly occurring? because they had nothing then and they have nothing now, which is why they hit him with a trumped-up purjury charge, he will beat this case easily and hopefully sue the shit out of the feds.....
HELLO! Juice he had Juice you do know what that is. Kinda like the Jefferson Tap boys like Powers kid. Hello again! I was on the job at the time Jon Burge pulled some unbelievable shit. So fuck you Jon is guilty I know it and you know it.
First, this wasn't a cop being a little rough when making an arrest. This was a commander who not only participated in torture, he created new and interesting ways to do and to promote it to other detectives. He gave a black eye to this department all across the country. Is he really a sympathetic figure?
Second, in many cases, the torture was being done to people who did NOT commit the crime. We have a death penalty moratorium in this state because of the more than a dozen people who confessed under torture who turned out to be innocent.
So, sure, you'll say they might not have committed the crime but they were not "innocent." Then you're missing the bigger point that the person who committed the murder was NOT discovered and punished, and out there perhaps committing additional crimes.
Third, you take this case as an example of why you shouldn't do aggressive police work???? Give me a break. If you are not out there creating means of torture and systematically torturing dozens of people, this case doesn't mean shit in terms of how you do your job.
Yes, times aren't good now. Yes, there are legit concerns about getting jammed for doing what you thought you should do or because you made a mistake, but that is very different from this. If you use Burge as an excuse to lay down on the job, then you are full of shit and looking for excuses not to work. ______________________________ Pussy, did you vote for Obama yet?
Give me a Fu*&ing Break !! I'm a cop just like most everyone else here that reads the blog.But I was trained to uphold the law.And most important.If during your arrest,if the offender wants to fight you and defeat the arrest prior to putting on the cuffs.Then it's a fight for survival,period ! But Cozzi wasn't in a fight for survival, he put cuffs on a drunk, asshole that was in a wheel chair and proceeded to whoop the guys ass. I don't give a rat's ass what any other copper thinks.That was a Bitch Ass move ! And now everyone wants to write how wrong it is to judge in hindsight. The only thing that I do agree on was that it was Bullsh%* to come back and try to convict him a second time. But what Cozzi did was still a "Bitch Move ". Burge was a little before my time but I still have more than 10 years on the job working Northside, Westside, Southside, and back to Northside. _______________________________ I doubt you ever did any Police work.
Yes, times aren't good now. Yes, there are legit concerns about getting jammed for doing what you thought you should do or because you made a mistake, but that is very different from this.

Not ONE of these people are, were,or are going to be good respectable people in their life time; whether they were tortured by Burge or not. These people were and will continue to be career crimminals until the day each of them die. Guarunteed. Policeman and women are laying down because they're not stoopid. What they encounter on a day to day basis vs. what the news reports, what "paid off" reverands spew to the media, and a mayor who controls their department. It isn't worth the aggrevation anymore. The Justice department indicted a ham sandwich today. Cozi is another example of this. He smacked a sassy asshole who didn't even care to cooperate with IAD. But the Feds pushed the issue to charge an unbelievable hard working cop who made a mistake and paid his dues. These are truthful facts, not opinions. To end this rant, please correct if I'M wrong; 4 crimminals accuse tortured by Burge, the entire system is overhauld because of this, and 2 of the 4 are in trouble with the Feds again? So the entire system is revamped because 2 innocent people got beat up by cops. That sends a huge message to patrolman and women not to do a fucking thing. P.S. How many policeman and women are beat up, shot at, or killed and the offenders aren't Federally indicted, let alone by the States Attorneys Office. Its dead job.
its called karma...don't forget this coward didn't operate in a vacuum,
Coward and Jon Burge are not usually mentioned in the same sentence. Jon is one of my heroes. If you want to get the living shit pounded out of your pathetic ass, get a hold of Jon and make an appointment for an ass-whup session. Throw your toothbrush and nylons away, because you won't be needing them anymore.
You can't be the police. You are probably one of Skin Flint Taylor's bitches. Rot in hell Skin Flint!! You look like you're about 90 YO.

Leave his wife off the blog. What has J-FED done for officers on the street? Administrative blows off duty while walking? Watch commander at every traffic crash? Inspectors hammering officers? Cozzi indictment? 200 POW's at call back for years? His alledge open meetings where officers are free to talk and then punished? Promoting incompetent exempts? Now two civilians run the department. Masters, who has no idea about this job. When in history has depolicing ever occured on this job? You couldn't get two officers to agree on lunch. Yet morale is so bad, oficers slowed down. Arrests are down and crime is rampant. Something stinks.
READ THE INDICTMENT !!!!!!!!! ANY WORKING COPPER THATHAS BEEN SUED IN FEDERAL COURT HE RESPONDED AT THE DIRECTION OF HIS ATTORNEY AND SIGNED HIS NAME AND THEY INDICTED HIM FOR HIS ANSWERS!!!!!!!!! WHAT PREVENTS THEM FROM DOING THISTO ANYONE ELSE????
I have clue a for all of you, Have you ever been a accused during a motion of an illegal search? not reading miranda? if you did read miranda they did not understand? tricked them into confessing? now if you answered yes and get a civil suit and they ask you these same questions, the same ones you answered at a motion and a judge ruled upon in the states favor well guess what, they will now bring in everyone who filed the same type of motion and say you perjured yourself, look at the criminals (your arrests) lined up to say so, The next thing that happens is a post conviction hearng with all of your previous arrests introduced as a pattern and not only does he go free but the city hands him and his lawyers money
Now I totally take offense to the statement Jfed knows more about Law Enforcement etc. Federal investigations entail totally different tactics and directions than street level city policing. He knows NOTHING about the job he has been tasked with. So are you saying that a secruity guard at Walmart knows as much as you ass hole about running the department or how about just doing an investigation. Mike Masters and Mike Shields, get off of the blog and get off your fucking knees!!!
This guy knows NOTHING about CPD nor running it. This is really sad because I live in the neighborhood of Chicago. Mike Masters lives downtown and so does the Superintendent. Hell, if Daley paid me for the work I have actually done than pay these idiots who have no idea, then maybe me and my 2 kids could head downtown also. Watch this, I bet we get 2% a year for 4 years while Jfed makes $300,000, Mike Masters Makes $160,000 and all of his federal buddies make $150,000 plus!! Together, they have all of what, a year and a half seniority together!!!
You stupid prick. Cozzi has nothing to do with that ass hole Jon Burge, if you don't know the real story shut that pie hole.
10/21/2008 09:36:00 PM
Hey numbnuts,I posted that,Cozzi and Burge are examples of the feds nailing you just because they can. Jfed screwed Cozzi after he was already punished.Fitzpatrick is going after Burge on bullshit lies. Both of them got it stuck up their ass by the feds.Now do you get my point? And it could happen to anyone of us.
anonymous said... Everyone keeps talking about these poor victims who were tortured by A/2 Detectives! Wouldn't the real victims be the ones who were murdered by these scumbags??? Holy Shit, only in a sick and depraved liberal Country!!! How far will people be pushed before we revolt against this fucked up Government!!
"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. " ----Thomas Jefferson
I must say that I agree with you 100%. Imagine how much good could be done with 20 million dollars, distributed among hardworking, DESERVING individuals who are ACTUALLY trying to build a better life for themselves and their families... not to mention the waste of tax dollars that will be used, in an attempt to prosecute a man who appears to have spent his life trying to make the world we live in a slightly better place! Like I have said in the past..... regular law-abiding, hardworking, TAX-paying individuals are chastised, while these drains on society continue to be rewarded!
What a brilliant visionary Thomas Jefferson was.... almost 200 years deceased and his words are more true today than they were then.
HELLO! Juice he had Juice you do know what that is. Kinda like the Jefferson Tap boys like Powers kid. Hello again! I was on the job at the time Jon Burge pulled some unbelievable shit. So fuck you Jon is guilty I know it and you know it.

You gotta be a complete hand-job!! If you have ANY knowledge of how the C.P.D. operates, you'd know that the Area Lt may oversee the investigation (at best), but would have no involvement in the actual investigation. I hope you're not the C.P.D., because you sound like a liberal piece of shit!
Cozzi has nothing to do with that ass hole Jon Burge, if you don't know the real story shut that pie hole.
?? Cozzi can't be compared to Burge because Cozzi fucked up on camera plain and simple. Show me any solid evodence that Burge did something wrong. Real evidence not from some shitbird murderer who is now a "witness". Remember boys & girls the G is not and never will be your friend. All they are business, science and accountants with federal badges who can and will do any thing they please. It shows that they are just another political arm and not serving real justice.
What proof do they have to charge him with lying to a grand jury????remember you have the right to not self incriminate,are they going on so called "victim" info??????
Anyone who was working with recruit James Doyle was murdered on the CTA Bus and when Fahey and O'Brien were killed at 80th and Morgan on their way back from Doyle's funeral will recall that the Wilson brothers were lucky they even made it to trial. Arresting Burge, what shit! 10/21/2008 10:35:00 AM

And yes, I agree, those two mutts are lucky to have made it to trial. I think what saved them was that they were not found in the city!

You have got to be a complete moron. Powers was dumped, sent to call back, and is facing criminal charges. What the fuck is your point now? Yeah he had juice, but he had a MINOR fuck up and is facing felony charges for getting in a tussle at a bar.
As for you being on the job when Burge was here, well who gives a fuck. Where you a dick in Area 2? Did you witness him beating confessions out of assholes? You probably didn't know the fuck who he was until it became news worthy.
Hey I was alive when Burge was on the job. I have as much knowledge about him as you. Now go back to the lockup for some Madden 09.
I worked for Jon Burge, when he was a Commander for a couple of years. He was a good boss, made sure his troops were taken care of. nicknamed us empty holster motherfuckers. So the men got hats with the logo EHMF in his honor. GOOD LUCK BOSS.

Was it for actual civil rights violation or the Fed's simple little lying under oath BS?
He got the Martha Stewart charges of lying to the feds. Proves that the feds never had a case for civil rights violations. All they can prove is that he lied to the feds after saying one thing in 2003and another several years later.
If it can happen to Burge, it can happen to you. Do not do any policing anymore----ever.

Rash of armed robberies by m/1s in 016. Keep doing work in ghetto districts you asswipes instead of bidding here and helping protect homeland. Bt 1633 and 1634 have fallen. 1632 is half fallen.

Hey fuckface I did my whole career in ghetto, I probably have more awards and honorables than you have arrests. Go to Tommy's and tell those pigs all about your amazing drop cases you have from 025 or 015 while joe is sticking up the Citgo down the street! Dork. FYI here's a list.

Ill bet in 20 years some of the new strike force members are charged with crimes while the boss's enjoy pensions.
Holy Peace for the Accused Batman!!!
Another Cozzi? Not.
OFF TOPIC.... Is there actually people handing in paperwork to go to this new strike force unit? I have heard about people doing this, but have not actually met anyone. Does anyone have any info on this topic ? My opinion only... Yoy have to be out of your mind, or a total kiss ass to do it !!!!
Daley will go broke buying Depends in the days to come.
of course he is hasnt been any good anti police stories gracing the front pages lately... and with Rezko talking who knows what is coming for Chicago politicians so why not get the attention away and hammer the police!!! unreal
This should help our image with the public. Do you think J-Fed had anything to do with it?
Why couldn't Fitz arrest that POS Jason Austin!
Anyone who was working with recruit James Doyle was murdered on the CTA Bus and when Fahey and O'Brien were killed at 80th and Morgan on their way back from Doyle's funeral will recall that the Wilson brothers were lucky they even made it to trial. Arresting Burge, what shit!
Legal defense fund
Richard Daley was the states attorney from 80-89
wilsons,hobley,orange,patterson all were prosecuted under his watch.
is fitz in the dems pockets???
Why go after the lt and ignore the bosses?
Leroy Martin for instance.
Perjury in fed invest???
Go after J.Jackson or blago & wife
the timing stinks like obama
Guilty or not guilty - it does not matter.
Just proves - do not go out of your way to "make" a case. Let what ever happens-happen. Do not get hurt, back up each other, go home to your family and collect your pension.
old retired guy
By the way, market bottoms in next few days.
What bullshit and a total waste of money and other resources have been pissed away over the last twenty five years over allegations of physical abuse.
Instead of creating new methods of policing for the present and future, these liberal Northwestern University cock suckers are stuck in the past while at the same time trying to collect cash from the city.
Feds arrest ex-Chicago cop Burge!!
i wonder how many future burge's are out there right now. bring in those heads boys like we used to. i wonder if burges boss's told him he was the man doing a great job, and the other commanders were dogs. the sad part is some fools are still out there playing lose with the truth. the difference is burge had reason to believe he would be protected todays hard charger has no hope of protection. 2 more years an im in arizona , i may have been a dog but the feds wont be at my door just my grand kids.
It's a very sad day for Chicago police officers. Why would any police officer do anything more than the bare minimum amount of work after this?
We thought morale was low before. It's gonna be a lot lower.
Are they going to go after other retired cops? If they are found guilty does the city still pay them their pension? This could be a great way to save the city some money.
Just saw the press conference...so it took 5 years to figure out that maybe Burge lied....so is the real story that he can give up Daley. Remember, whoever gives it up first gets the "A" deal..and so it begins...
GOD BLESS JON BURGE! And a big f**ku to u coward feds. Go in any ghetto hood in this city and try taking down the local gang/drug lord thats truly terrorizing his own people instead of picking on an
aging Warrior!
By the way, where's WHITEY, u cowards!!!!!
Wow, I can't believe that they are going after Burge. Is anyone going to hold a benefit for him here in Chicago so he can adequately defend himself in court?
OT- Breaking News:
New Tact Lt to be named on Friday for the embattled 025. JG is leaving the district and AC will be taking over.
Another fine example of being screwed with. Thats it go on out there and be proactive and get screwed too!

Burge Indictment
http://media1.suntimes.com/multimedia/burge%20final%20ind.pdf_20081021_09_04_12_17.imageContent
Good luck Uncle John. We all know that everything they are trying is a pack of lies.
Fucking SHAME...this only means that after you retire & leave this job long long behind you , you will still be looking over your shoulder for the dept or feds to bring up an old CR# & hunt you down!
I'm all for nailing someone for purjury but...Does this mean that the FEDS will now also look into all the lying under oath by these shitheads at grand juries and trials? Because I'm sure we've all seen it on several occassions where pooky changes story half way through a trial or says they were there when proof is shown that they were not. Nothing is done with these people. Why?!!!?
Typical.
I don't agree with the "old days" shortcut methods, I believe that we as coppers should treat those we come in contact with respectfully and reasonably until we have a reason not to, and we need to be careful not to let ourselves tarnish one person because someone we dealt with earlier was a scumbag, would not help, etc. That said, do we really need to go back mega-years to try to prosecute some weak charges that are not even germane to the original issue. You accused him of torture, you can't honestly prove it, now the full power of the federal government is brought to bear to stick some bullshit charges. Reminds me of the Rodney King case...and what a fine citizen he turned out to be. The LAPD Sgt. saved his life by not allowing deadly force when it was justifiable, and gets prosecuted because minorities would rather support the like-colored criminals that prey upon them, than back the law that would stop them.
I agree, I have been locking up criminals until today, but from now on, case suspended. No more talking witnesses into testifying, no more building cases. You want anarchy, you want your "brothers" to rape, kill, drug and pillage your community, you got it. Shove your oath up your ass, I took an oath to protect and serve the citizenry, not to be villified for bullshit based upon some ghettofied liberal agenda. Let these ridiculous lefters try to control these savages with their respect and reason...lol...good luck.
This is pure 100per cent Bull Shit. Liberal government at it's best. SSC I was a detective for over 24 yrs. and have worked South, West, and North Sides. I never saw a "black box" electric, whatever. I saw a lot of things but never that. I did not know Burge, but did know several of the guys who worked for him. All Bull Shit. Check who is behind this. People's Law Office, Slim Coleman & Co, the liberal Revs, Obama's People. See who profits from all this? Hope all are well armed for the future.
This may be Fitzgerald trying to show that he's not an evil Republican snd keep his job. I predict that Obamessiah will not replace Fitzgerald immediately. He will be left in place to continue this investigation and to pursue Blagojevich. Blago will be the sacrifice to show Obamessiah fights Democrat corruption. Indicting Blago will also justify a wrist-slap sentence for Tony Rezko, who will testify against Blago (and only Blago). Blago will be indicted and forced from office - then after a long trial will plead out to minor charges for no jail time.
However, while I think Fitz is currying favor with the Left on this, I don't think he thought it through. Daley was Cook Cty SA then, and the city has protected Burge; this could embarrass him, which Obamessiah doesn't want now. Than again, this might be setting up to push Daley out for Jackson Jr.
Just A Civilian with a lot of suspicions
All I know if cooter don't back to sos I'm not going.he's handsome and unlike jody he's eyes look good.love you cooter
OT for a minute my Brothers and Sisters: Why don't we give the Supt. some air? I don't know the man personally but he came into a hell of a mess that took years to create. Idiot Cmdrs. stealing and going to prison and scandals everywhere. I've been on the job a long time and have worked in SHIT. The Supt. is trying to right the sinking ship and I find no fault of his if it takes time. And to all the young POLICE who take offense to him wearing the uniform, he knows more about law enforcement than you'll ever know. Also personal attacks on peoples' looks,personalities or spouses-children should be kept to yourselfs. None of us are perfect. I have met the Supt's wife on several occassions and I'll tell you she is a FIRST CLASS ACT. She's the nicest person I've come across in a long time(and easy on the eyes fellas but she's married). Let's do the job and forget the B.S. bickering. Jesus, we're CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS!
They wanted him , now they got him.I think I saw him spit on the sidewalk last year . WTF ! After over 20 years they come up with he lied . They couldn't get him any other way. Hey Fitz. Good Job you fuckin' tool.
if you boys don't stand together in unity with Jon Burge, I promise you Daley will walk all over you. The demand should be made lous and clear, if they have a valid charge against Burge then they MUST have one for Daley. He was the top dog lawyer of Cook County. Demand accountability and, if Patrick Fitzergerald is prosecuting Burge then so should he Daley.
AND if Obama is elected, Fitzgerald will be fired in a heartbeat, replaced with a more friendly attorney.
Don't let this happen.
Burge and Cozzi,the two poster boys on why you should DEPOLICE.
Their out to get us,cover your ass,
Police work as we knew it has gone the way of the dinosaur.Just give them a smile and a case report.
mr mayor great interview and smile on the news clip. no you werent the mayor..then..but you are now cough**weis** cough..400 milion in the hole cough** **cough
i knew john at the old area 2 on cottage and one fine man who if he saw you on the street went out of his way to say hello, never had a chip on his shoulder or a super ego like most of the irish fucks on the job who were for most part horses asses who were ridiculed behind their backs,if Burge goes so should Daley as he was running the states attnys office or this might just be Fitzgeralds way of getting Daley. hope he goes down
I hope he spills all it about shortshanks!! I live to see the day that Mayor daley (SHORTSHANKS) goes to prison!
What a shame~he was an excellent copper and did his job well! God bless you, John ~ my prayers are with you!
Prediction: The next 100 responses will include...
40: They have no proof/where is the justice/this is double jeopardy/the media made it up!
40: The savages got what they deserved!
and
20: rot in hells!
That about sum it up?
"That was a 1987 arson fire that killed seven people, including Hobley's wife and child. Hobley remains under federal investigation for that crime, even though he received a pardon during former Gov. George Ryan's clemency decision that emptied the state's Death Row."
Madison Hobley is the star witness? That's what they got? Well I guess you can
t bring our his murder conviction in court since Ryan pardoned him. If Ryan hadn't pardoned him there would be no chrges brought forth because they could bring all that out then.
OFF TPOIC:
When voting on touch screen:
The first page with presidential candidates will also have the State of Il Constitutional proposal on it, easy to miss if just looking at candidates name..
Beautiful- Like McCain said now on to Iraq- or sorry wrong goof/ Daley next.
Political Witch Hunt. Every one of those assholes deserved to be tortured.
Give the same punishment Bill Clinton got for lying under oath!
I wish they would put HALF this much time, money and energy into investigating Shortshanks and crew. It's not like there isn't anything to look at.
How many scandals do we have to hear about before something is actually done? He must have some seriously good blackmail goodies on the feds.
We all know even though it seems bad in todays world, Burge and those under him kept crime at a lower rate as people feared the police. I spoke with many older folks who knew or worked for Burge and most of the felons who are complaining they were tortured were truly guilty. Thank you to liberal America for ruining this country.
There's a former Area Two detective (turned unit 715 sgt) in the federal prison system for robbing drug dealers. I wonder if he figures into this.
http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/2008/10/off-duty-cop-shoots-robber-police-say.html
I think we should show some loyalty to our fromer brother in blue. By calling in sick,stop writing tickets or stop arresting the animals. Let Daley have his city the way he wants it! Wasn't he the State's Atty when all this was suppose to have taken place?
F this city and the dept. suck up!
ow ohh ...ooooo...ah...ok..ok I DDID IT I DID IT
Patrick “Ham Sandwich” Fitzgerald finally got Jon Burge indicted. I’ll bet he’s really proud of himself. He and his police-hating cabal must be pouring the Champaign tonight. It’s too bad he didn’t use some of that energy he used to ensnare Burge to get some of the real rats that are ruing this city. Daley uses the city treasury as his own piggy bank. Jesse Jack-ass-son doesn’t file income taxes for years, but the US Attorney turns a blind eye toward his crimes. How many businesses has Jack-ass-son shaken down under the pretense of civil rights activities. Daley’s fingerprints are all over this abomination.
This is just another example of why the smart thing to do when you go to work is to put your hands in your pockets and not take them out for your shift, except to take a piss. And don’t think that Weis didn’t play a part in this fraud. The FEDS are not your friends!!! Most of them couldn’t make it as the street police. Hang in there, Jon. Fuck the Feds.
just watched the five o clock news-- this poor burge guy has gotten more press than gacy. if the government wants you apparently they will get you at any cost. mr. burge, i have your back 100 percent and will fight for you. you are the one who took care of the wilson brothers who murdered 2 of our fraternal brothers. 2 pieces of shit who were lucky to ever see a cell wall. god bless burge, a leader of men who still cares about what is right. remember nifong, in the end when fitzy and the rest of his cocksuckers are thru with this witch hunt, you will be the ones who are sued for what you did to burge. you will have to answer to your misconduct. fuck all you fbi jags, die in hell, you to mr j-no balls.
wouldn't doubt it if j-fed got him indicted like he did cozzi.
You knew the feds would make up anything to lock this guy up, they do whatever they want in this Pre-commi Ussa
Alot of people here talk about "real" police by where ya work..what area.It really does not matter today.Dude does not care anymore...there is zero respect for the police these days..there is no fear of us any longer.I only have 11yrs on this job and do not know nor ever worked with/for Burge..but i'll say this..there WAS a fear of the Police back then by criminals.Those of us who have only spent a short time on this job need to listen to the "old timers" who had seen and done more in 5 yrs than most of us ever will.We may think were tough and "hard" but in reality the criminals who were delt with by the now "old timers"...do see a diffrence...and it's not good
Be Safe
I hope all of you that have been singing Patrick Fitzgerald's praises all these months take notice.
9.9 % of you are NOT HARD WORKING !!!!!!! ( I kinda thought it be higher)
http://m.apnews.com/ap/db_7732/contentdetail.htm?contentguid=Scqehi86
DALEY:
We have good police officers. I know you want to beat them all up all the time. But we have good men and women in the Police Department, he said, adding that 90.9 percent are hard-working men and women who want to do the job the right way.
Please roll over on Daley!
So the U.S. ATTY has sat on this for how long?Great timing to ensure the city burns to the ground in less than 2 wks.EVEN SHARPTON is here!This 3 ring circus is so unfunny,and we're the ones who will get blamed.
Finally justice
Strange: The US Attorney figured out a way to indict a policeman after 20/25 years have gone by on the word of a gaggles of murderers.
But he cannot figure out a way to indict the most openly corrupt mayor, governor, and county board president in the country.
But then they are all fellow lawyers, aren't they? Fitzgerald is just another political hack.
After listening to US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald regarding this matter I would be hesitant to submit to a deposition in a civil case in the future. Also the City should allow me to pick my own lawyer because the individual they provided Burge apparently did a poor job.
If an individual, with numerous felony convictions, stated that I did something inappropriate and the Feds believed, after listening to Flint Taylor, him I could be in trouble.
Also the Mayor, did you see him today, is not going to stand behind me!
Reluctantly I must demand full immunity prior to testifying and even then if I am not 100% sure I cannot respond.
Remember what the chief federal fuck said "You is either on the train or on the tracks".yuk, yuk.
Seems like no matter what the laws say, as long as it's a cop or former one, "they" will go after any little piece of bullshit to make the "others" feel like "they" did something for them.
SUX!
BURGE IS MY HERO! FUCK ALL THESE LIBERALS. FITZGERALD GOES AFTER HIM BUT HE CANT GET THE DALEY CRIME FAMILY! GIVE ME A BREAK!
2/3rd of the department wasn't even on the Job when Burge retired. Therefore, you black glove, hair gel wearing, tuff talking tavern warriors can refrain from subjecting us to your idiocy.
Now lets go get the bad guys............ UNFINGBELIEVABLE. We fight for death row inmates yet we kill unborn babies. Sad, very sad. America as I once knew it is gone. CHICAGO IS A SEWER
Look at Burge. Look at him on the news. Watch him.
That's your future.
He is you in your retirement. You, who will also be haunted by the arrest of those criminals that society has since forgiven. Haunted by that society that now wants to punish you for making the murderer suffer.
You see, people forget murders. They forgive murderers. As time passes, people look at murder and they think it wasn't so bad. Even when someone burns their own children to death. Time heals those wounds.
Then, people get mad that the murderer suffered. The murderer is still alive. He spent all that time in jail. He didn't have to be in jail that long. That was too long. We never should have put him in jail in the first place. Those other people are dead. We can't remember them anymore. The murderer is still alive. We saw him on TV. The murderer needs our help now.
The people tell themselves that the murderer probably didn't do it anyway. And even if he did, we can't remember that far back anyway. We just can't be sure anymore, so we'll just free him.
Then, the people come after you. They want your pension, your home, your reputation, your peace of mind, and your freedom. They want you to suffer. It's all your fault that the murderer went to jail. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't feel bad that the murderer on TV was in jail. We don't think he did whatever that was anymore. And, even if he did, we don't care anymore. We forgot why he was there anyway.
It's your fault this happened. It's all your fault. If it wasn't for you, it never would have happened.
Don't feel too bad. The people will forgive you in time, probably after you die. By then, they'll move on to blaming someone else for the way their lives turned out. But for you, it will never end.
Remember that the next time you reach for your handcuffs.
Who was the States Attorneny during that era? You guessed it, someone who never set foot in a criminal courtroom.
Hopefully it will be someone who will be spending a lot of time in aa criminal courtroom, and a lot of time in a federal pen.
For the first time ever,I am NOT proud to be an AMERICAN.With multitudes of scandal,political corruption and flagrant thievery,THE U.S. ATTY chose at a precarious time in history to remove a lethal,incendiary piece of frozen meat from his freezer.When the city is burning on the 4th call the FEDS.The timing is sophmoric,moronic and is going to get good people hurt.
another of fat phil cline dirtbag boss buddies bites the dust...only surprised he didn't flee the country long ago....he must have great dirt to barter with or he will die in jail...its called karma...don't forget this coward didn't operate in a vacuum, had plenty of support above and below his rank, thank God one of his legit cop killer arrestee died so he won't be set free, maybe thats a gift to legit police from the Feds; if so thank you from all us honest souls for not making a good cops death be made worse by the comming Burge debacle. KMASGT
GOOD LUCK JOHN.
Anyone catch USA Fitz say that he got Burge charged for what ever charge he could get to stick...just like Al Capone,s tax evasion charge. Sum of these cases are 25years old, and they're still hunting down old cops for BS. Beware what you do today can effect you many moons from now...
Everyone keeps talking about these poor victims who were tortured by A/2 Detectives! Wouldn't the real victims be the ones who were murdered by these scumbags??? Holy Shit, only in a sick and depraved liberal Country!!! How far will people be pushed before we revolt against this fucked up Government!!
"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. "
----Thomas Jefferson
Anyone who puts getting the bad guy before there family, after this is crazy............
Are they going to go after other retired cops? If they are found guilty does the city still pay them their pension? This could be a great way to save the city some money.
10/21/2008 11:15:00 AM
I hope you arent the police you rotten cocksucker. If you are, I know you have never done an ounce of real police work. Fuck you and die.
they better change the new groups name from; "strike force" to "daisies", or the "pink squad".

Give me a Fu*&ing Break !!

But Cozzi wasn't in a fight for survival, he put cuffs on a drunk, asshole that was in a wheel chair and proceeded to whoop the guys ass. I don't give a rat's ass what any other copper thinks.That was a Bitch Ass move ! And now everyone wants to write how wrong it is to judge in hindsight. The only thing that I do agree on was that it was Bullsh%* to come back and try to convict him a second time. But what Cozzi did was still a
"Bitch Move ". Burge was a little before my time but I still have more than 10 years on the job working Northside, Westside, Southside, and back to Northside.

Do your own fucking police work you lazy fukstick.
Can you imagine the balls on this fucking pussy trying to shit on coppers working the shit districts?
FUCK YOU SHITSACK! Go call your own district out as the pussies they are for not policing their own streets.
You ain't the police motherfucker, otherwise you'd never have the tiniest balls to even think of trying to belittle the working copper for not coming up to 016 and saving your pussy ass!
Go kill yourself you brave ex-ghetto copper and put US all out of YOUR misery.
Better yet, go back to looking out your window at the "crime" running rampant in 016, close your eyes, and WISH you had the balls to do what we do for a living, you pathetic bullshitter liberal bookworm crybaby.
SCC: Where do we send the checks. Defense fund and living expenses. I'm in and so will other ISP when I post this.
peeved.
You go Patrick!
If it can happen to Burge, it can happen to you. Do not do any policing anymore----ever.
You can do police work just don't do anymore of the Illegal shit.
Arresting Burge, what shit!
He is a prick.
OFF TOPIC.... Is there actually people handing in paperwork to go to this new strike force unit? I have heard about people doing this, but have not actually met anyone. Does anyone have any info on this topic ? My opinion only... Yoy have to be out of your mind, or a total kiss ass to do it !!!!

I can't wait to see who's on the transfer order. What is the restriction for years on the job?
Is it 5 or 3?
It's a very sad day for Chicago police officers. Why would any police officer do anything more than the bare minimum amount of work after this?
We thought morale was low before. It's gonna be a lot lower.
Why would it be a sad day? Jon Burge is guilty period overwhelming evidence.
THEY SHOULD GO AFTER CRIMINALS LIKE THEY DO POLICE.
KEEP WORKING IN THE GHETTO INSTEAD OF BIDDING HERE AND PROTECTING THE HOMELAND? What about you, you lazy cocksucker? While I'm in the "ghetto" earning my salary for the taxpayers, why dont you protect my "homeland"..... because you are a 16th District pussy who has never been the police and you do not know how to protect the "homeland"! FUCK OFF.... DO YOUR FUCKING JOB, CRYBABY!
10/20/2008 11:58:00 PM
Hey moron I did my entire time in the westside so dont give me that bullshit line. Looks like you dont have the time to bid here so keep chasing that one bagger and I will try to look after the homeland. You sound like a complete tool, do you know that cops are laughing at you when you come in with that piss bum for his 1 rock or that DOPW? Get a clue PPO just cause you are assigned to a "ghetto" does not mean you have any clue on being the POLICE.
Hmmph. Torture of prisoners in Area 2 and Area 3? Damn, I worked in both detective areas, about that time, but didn’t hear a thing. Those of us in General Assignments were only one floor away, so you’d think we’d at least hear some screaming. But then, our typewriters made a lot of noise, as we merrily unfounded damage to property, simple battery, and theft cases, to make the boss look good. We didn’t usually actually arrest anyone, so didn’t need to torture, we just booked in on arrests by the district guys.
Come to think of it, though, the lights did dim a few times. Strike that. I don’t want to get called to testify, I just want to continue getting my pension. I’ve reached a milestone. I’ve collected more in pension than I got in salary from the CPD. I hope some of the rest of you poor bastards can someday say the same, but it won’t work out for you
unless you keep your eyes on what is really important. The first and the sixteenth. Bless you all, even the guy who told me to go F myself a few days ago. I tried. It was fun, but I hurt my back.
016 District Worker said...
Rash of armed robberies by m/1s in 016. Keep doing work in ghetto districts you asswipes instead of bidding here and helping protect homeland. Bt 1633 and 1634 have fallen. 1632 is half fallen. Lot of coppers and city workers in 1631 beat and thats next( no help from 3rd watch). Gang chief lives off Northwest Highway so that Safe Edison Park thing
--------------------------------
I would love to bid there and work for a purpose (protect tax payers, my family, people that give a shit)but the truth is you have to have
alot more time on the job than I do to get there. So for the time being I'm going to have to stay in the ghetto and 016 will continue to be filled with coppers high on senority for better or worse. P.S. J is this you?
agree, I have been locking up criminals until today,
Your days of lets make a deal are over. Tuff guy black gloves. no hair police.
In 1986 there was a civil rights case in Federal Court. The police officers were sucessful in their suit. The superintendantat at the time was caught lying in the case. A CR# was even issued on him. IAD, the feds did nothing. Washington was the Mayor. Getting the picture boys and girls?
Burge and Cozzi,the two poster boys on why you
You stupid prick. Cozzi has nothing to do with that ass hole Jon Burge, if you don't know the real story shut that pie hole.
For all the Burge haters out there, several officers were present when Burge told them, quite firmly, don't fuck this up by touching these guys...Only after the Detectives were done with the interrogations and the Wilsons were headed to or already at 26 and Cal did they end up with any injuries..Burge has been the scape goat for the sins of others who were so selfish that their anger was more important then justice for O'Brien and Fahey. Burge might go to jail in order to ensure justice for O'Brien and Fahey and those who fucked this up, well you just have to live with yourselves.. It's terrible Burge has been persecuted like this and you can hate the feds all you want this but make no mistake, coppers did this to Burge and they lack his courage to do the right thing..As for any black box, there was zero evidence of any injuries caused by anything electrical..Back in the day some clever detectives had props they used as pretend lie detectors which did nothing to the defendant except trick him into thinking he was on a lie box..Everybody in this investigation knows this but the corrupt defense lawyers fabricated this electrocuting claim to get their clients off and they even got some detectives, who were less then good at their job but they claim there were other reasons they weren't given better cases to work on, to provide additional innuendo that a "black box" was frequently used..Of course these detectives never actually observed anything cause if they had they'd be just as wrong for not stopping it. This is racial baloney and the worst part is everyone stopped caring about O'Brien and Fahey along the way, except Burge that is...Sad day...
Most of these comments are so off base.
First, this wasn't a cop being a little rough when making an arrest. This was a commander who not only participated in torture, he created new and interesting ways to do and to promote it to other detectives. He gave a black eye to this department all across the country. Is he really a sympathetic figure?
Second, in many cases, the torture was being done to people who did NOT commit the crime. We have a death penalty moratorium in this state because of the more than a dozen people who confessed under torture who turned out to be innocent.
So, sure, you'll say they might not have committed the crime but they were not "innocent." Then you're missing the bigger point that the person who committed the murder was NOT discovered and punished, and out there perhaps committing additional crimes.
Third, you take this case as an example of why you shouldn't do aggressive police work???? Give me a break. If you are not out there creating means of torture and systematically torturing dozens of people, this case doesn't mean shit in terms of how you do your job.
Yes, times aren't good now. Yes, there are legit concerns about getting jammed for doing what you thought you should do or because you made a mistake, but that is very different from this. If you use Burge as an excuse to lay down on the job, then you are full of shit and looking for excuses not to work.

Blow me CIVILIAN and/or FED. Because you are a civilian and/or one of J-FEDS minions you have no idea how you gave yourself away. Stay off our blog jagoff! Oh, btw, FUCK J-FED.
knew john at the old area 2 on cottage and one fine man
If you knew him why don't you know his name????? Jon Burge
I'm all for nailing someone for purjury but...Does this mean that the FEDS will now also look into all the lying under oath by these shitheads at grand juries and trials? Because I'm sure we've all seen it on several occassions where pooky changes story half way through a trial or says they were there when proof is shown that they were not. Nothing is done with these people. Why?!!!?

sorry p stones not a real gang fake gang
Anyone who was working with recruit James Doyle was murdered on the CTA Bus and when Fahey and O'Brien were killed at 80th and Morgan on their way back from Doyle's funeral will recall that the Wilson brothers were lucky they even made it to trial. Arresting Burge, what shit!
I'm a City tradesworker who remembers the day that these two Police Officers were killed. I have family members who worked for the CPD.
If the Wilsons hadn't made it to the station alive no one would have cared. I lived in 22 (19th Ward) at the time. The bastards should have gotten the death penalty.
Daley, Blago, the corrupt preachers and reverends..... walking around free as they CONTINUE to rip all of us off.
Burge, what ever he did, it was 30 years ago. The BS about the civil trial perjury was just their way to hang the prick.
U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald knows he is going bye-bye soon with a new president. No matter if it is Obama or McCain. He needed a big one to write the book about. And this one is the big one for him.
Not to mention that J-Fed probably had some role in this indictment. J-Fed needed to have the heat taken off him and the crime stats. This arrest will make most of the minority communities in Chicago happy and their minds off J-Fed for a while.
www.shavedlongcock.blogspot.com
Take a look at the indictment. A question was asked of Burge through a written iterogatory(if you've been involved in civil suits you know what this is). The question was basically have you tortuterd anyone at area two and do you know of anyone torturing a citizen at area two. Burge answered "No". That's it folks! That's why they locked him up today. The G has said that since the special prosecuters determined that there was some abuse going on at area two, Burge was lying in the written answers he provided, through his lawyer, in the interrogatories. WOW! This is scary people.....real scary. Keep going that extra mile guys. F**K no! We got to give them the police they want. The police they have asked for and the police they are demanding. Burge was a good cop.....rough around the edges but torture???? hell no! Maybe a crack upside the head sometime but big f'in deal. That's not going to make me confess to killing my kids, what about you? And besides....how many times do you think that a commanding officer of a violent crimes unit is involved in the interrogation of a suspect? I'll tell you from experience....virtually never. These pukes are all jumping on the Burge gravy train. I don't know. I'm so frustrated, so disappointed. I used to live this job, doing the right thing, helping people, putting bad guys away. I want to quit. I really do. But I need the job for a little bit longer. Maybe I'll just quit doing anything. I'm going to protect mine....and yours, but if the person killed is nothing to me.....I'm sorry, can't go the extra mile, can't take any chances. I'll just do the reports and go to the next case and keep repeating this.

Hey 11:13am...why did you take this job....you are NOW going to lay down because BURGE is indicted for lying to feds about stuff from the 80's? hang it up and move on, useless!!
for info of 10.21 at 9,39 my apoligys i ysed the english version of his name john instead of the dutch german version jon my fault im sorry, but i did have wonderful mems of jon and his gang at 91st and cottage in the 70s and can say i never saw instances of torture
Poor Andrew and Jackie Wilson. Poor Madison Hobley. Pooe Edgar Hope.Poor Reggie and Jerry Mahaffey.Some of the most evil mutts that have stole oxygen.They should have been put to sleep.And the midget says it's not his fault. Nothing is his fault.It's always someone else's fault.
Good luck to John Burge.

So far the only thing AC has taken over is the lunch buffet at Carniceria Jimenez. The man takes up two chairs and can't support his own weight even while sitting. He's one bandito who's definitely had one too many Fritos.
Remember; Burge was a lieutenant. You don't make rank unless you know someone.....then you owe someone. He only did what he was told to do: to get a confession.
Why would it be a sad day? Jon Burge is guilty period overwhelming evidence.
If the evidence was so overwhelming why wasn't he charged by the feds whgen it was allegedly occurring? because they had nothing then and they have nothing now, which is why they hit him with a trumped-up purjury charge, he will beat this case easily and hopefully sue the shit out of the feds.....

Knock off the Weis bullshit, troll.
Many months ago on SCC, I summarized my early December phone conversation with the then FBI SAC, Philadelphia.
In our conversation, I emphasized the demoralizing effects of the deeply-entrenched political clout that has made the CPD the most dysfunctional big-city PD in the nation: sinecure assignments, incontrovertible evidence of rigged promotions and no objective criteria for awards and extracurricular education opportunities (FBI-Quantico, NUTI, etc.)
I enthusiastically welcomed him as top cop, speaking of his golden opportunity to break the clout stranglehold. As an "outsider", he could bring desperately needed reforms to the CPD clusterfuck. I envisioned him restoring integrity, excellence, pride, professionalism, honor and morale. Our best and brightest officers would rise through the ranks. No longer would the inept morons and clout babies manage the CPD.
I even specifically named the most outstanding and respected boss in the entire dept.
Later, I asked him to give a categorical and unequivocal written CPD defintion of "merit" (i.e.: CLOUT). He never responded to this simple request.
The Jody Weis "honeymoon" ended long ago. He has repeatedly proven himself to be nothing more than the feckless puppet of the corrupt Shortshanks. He speaks incessant bullshit. All talk; no action.
Despite my initial optimism and naivete, I can only sadly conclude that Jody P. Weis is just another clueless careerist and political hack extraordinaire--an abysmal failure as CPD Supt. He knows it and King Richard II knows this all too well. Unless you are delusional, YOU know it too.
While we both condemn ad hominem attacks as far beyond the pale of civility, the rest of your post is utter drivel.
YOU are in dire need of a reality check. This also applies to Mr. Weis.

Huh? Respect of WHAT officers? JG is legendary for his goofs many years ago, but he's done a great job so far and raised activity by over 60% over the guy you say is "respected". TC and his sister made LT in the same class, and their dad was an "old time boss". Big surprise. JG is NOT LAPA, NOT merit and not beholden to any politician. Look into TC's Federal beef while he was in 018...may as well be wearing a hood to roll call.
Lot of people posting on this thread and others not to do any police work. Do nothing, dont' give Daley any revenue, don't do shit, go home safe, yada yada yada.
If you do nothing, then what do we need cops for?
How about this? Do your job the way you're trained to do it. Don't motherfuck everyone, don't slap anyone unless you have to, be professional but do your job.
Look out for everyone, be careful, be professional, but more importantly, don't be a dogass.
When everyone is a dogass, then the whole thing goes to shit. When it all goes to shit and the city has to lay coppers off because it can't pay them, then don't whine about it.
KEEP IN MIND THE CITY IS SENDING U A MESSAGE!

"Burge is a scapegoat. Who was HE working for? Find him and fuck him hard."
Are you saying you can't find City Hall?
Why would it be a sad day? Jon Burge is guilty period overwhelming evidence.

HELLO! Juice he had Juice you do know what that is. Kinda like the Jefferson Tap boys like Powers kid. Hello again! I was on the job at the time Jon Burge pulled some unbelievable shit. So fuck you Jon is guilty I know it and you know it.
Most of these comments are so off base.
First, this wasn't a cop being a little rough when making an arrest. This was a commander who not only participated in torture, he created new and interesting ways to do and to promote it to other detectives. He gave a black eye to this department all across the country. Is he really a sympathetic figure?
Second, in many cases, the torture was being done to people who did NOT commit the crime. We have a death penalty moratorium in this state because of the more than a dozen people who confessed under torture who turned out to be innocent.
So, sure, you'll say they might not have committed the crime but they were not "innocent." Then you're missing the bigger point that the person who committed the murder was NOT discovered and punished, and out there perhaps committing additional crimes.
Third, you take this case as an example of why you shouldn't do aggressive police work???? Give me a break. If you are not out there creating means of torture and systematically torturing dozens of people, this case doesn't mean shit in terms of how you do your job.
Yes, times aren't good now. Yes, there are legit concerns about getting jammed for doing what you thought you should do or because you made a mistake, but that is very different from this. If you use Burge as an excuse to lay down on the job, then you are full of shit and looking for excuses not to work.
______________________________
Pussy, did you vote for Obama yet?
Give me a Fu*&ing Break !! I'm a cop just like most everyone else here that reads the blog.But I was trained to uphold the law.And most important.If during your arrest,if the offender wants to fight you and defeat the arrest prior to putting on the cuffs.Then it's a fight for survival,period ! But Cozzi wasn't in a fight for survival, he put cuffs on a drunk, asshole that was in a wheel chair and proceeded to whoop the guys ass. I don't give a rat's ass what any other copper thinks.That was a Bitch Ass move ! And now everyone wants to write how wrong it is to judge in hindsight. The only thing that I do agree on was that it was Bullsh%* to come back and try to convict him a second time. But what Cozzi did was still a
"Bitch Move ". Burge was a little before my time but I still have more than 10 years on the job working Northside, Westside, Southside, and back to Northside.

Not ONE of these people are, were,or are going to be good respectable people in their life time; whether they were tortured by Burge or not.
These people were and will continue to be career crimminals until the day each of them die. Guarunteed.
Policeman and women are laying down because they're not stoopid.
What they encounter on a day to day basis vs. what the news reports, what "paid off" reverands spew to the media, and a mayor who controls their department. It isn't worth the aggrevation anymore.
The Justice department indicted a ham sandwich today.
Cozi is another example of this. He smacked a sassy asshole who didn't even care to cooperate with IAD. But the Feds pushed the issue to charge an unbelievable hard working cop who made a mistake and paid his dues.
These are truthful facts, not opinions.
To end this rant, please correct if I'M wrong; 4 crimminals accuse tortured by Burge, the entire system is overhauld because of this, and 2 of the 4 are in trouble with the Feds again?
So the entire system is revamped because 2 innocent people got beat up by cops.
That sends a huge message to patrolman and women not to do a fucking thing.
P.S. How many policeman and women are beat up, shot at, or killed and the offenders aren't Federally indicted, let alone by the States Attorneys Office. Its dead job.
its called karma...don't forget this coward didn't operate in a vacuum,
Coward and Jon Burge are not usually mentioned in the same sentence. Jon is one of my heroes. If you want to get the living shit pounded out of your pathetic ass, get a hold of Jon and make an appointment for an ass-whup session. Throw your toothbrush and nylons away, because you won't be needing them anymore.
You can't be the police. You are probably one of Skin Flint Taylor's bitches. Rot in hell Skin Flint!! You look like you're about 90 YO.

Cozzi indictment? 200 POW's at call back for years? His alledge open meetings where officers are free to talk and then punished? Promoting incompetent exempts? Now two civilians run the department. Masters, who has no idea about this job. When in history has depolicing ever occured on this job? You couldn't get two officers to agree on lunch. Yet morale is so bad, oficers slowed down. Arrests are down and crime is rampant. Something stinks.
Hahaha!!
Did anyone notice Daley sweating when denying any knowledge of Jon Burge?
Yes was stuttering and sweating MORE than usual.
Oooh, sweet revenge and bitter sweet voting.

If it can happen to Burge, it can happen to you. Do not do any policing anymore----ever.

Amen brother.. FUCK policework.
I have clue a for all of you, Have you ever been a accused during a motion of an illegal search? not reading miranda? if you did read miranda they did not understand? tricked them into confessing? now if you answered yes and get a civil suit and they ask you these same questions, the same ones you answered at a motion and a judge ruled upon in the states favor well guess what, they will now bring in everyone who filed the same type of motion and say you perjured yourself, look at the criminals (your arrests) lined up to say so, The next thing that happens is a post conviction hearng with all of your previous arrests introduced as a pattern and not only does he go free but the city hands him and his lawyers money
Now I totally take offense to the statement Jfed knows more about Law Enforcement etc. Federal investigations entail totally different tactics and directions than street level city policing. He knows NOTHING about the job he has been tasked with. So are you saying that a secruity guard at Walmart knows as much as you ass hole about running the department or how about just doing an investigation. Mike Masters and Mike Shields, get off of the blog and get off your fucking knees!!!
This guy knows NOTHING about CPD nor running it. This is really sad because I live in the neighborhood of Chicago. Mike Masters lives downtown and so does the Superintendent. Hell, if Daley paid me for the work I have actually done than pay these idiots who have no idea, then maybe me and my 2 kids could head downtown also. Watch this, I bet we get 2% a year for 4 years while Jfed makes $300,000, Mike Masters Makes $160,000 and all of his federal buddies make $150,000 plus!! Together, they have all of what, a year and a half seniority together!!!

You gotta be a complete hand-job!! If you have ANY knowledge of how the C.P.D. operates, you'd know that the Area Lt may oversee the investigation (at best), but would have no involvement in the actual investigation. I hope you're not the C.P.D., because you sound like a liberal piece of shit!
Cozzi has nothing to do with that ass hole Jon Burge, if you don't know the real story shut that pie hole.
?? Cozzi can't be compared to Burge because Cozzi fucked up on camera plain and simple. Show me any solid evodence that Burge did something wrong. Real evidence not from some shitbird murderer who is now a "witness". Remember boys & girls the G is not and never will be your friend. All they are business, science and accountants with federal badges who can and will do any thing they please. It shows that they are just another political arm and not serving real justice.
What proof do they have to charge him with lying to a grand jury????remember you have the right to not self incriminate,are they going on so called "victim" info??????
If you weren't there and an eye witness who cares what you think?
lesson learned:
Never talk to a fed. Lawyer up immediately, DO NOT LIE, denial can be a lie, so ask for a lwayer and shut up.
when are you going to learn?
Anyone who was working with recruit James Doyle was murdered on the CTA Bus and when Fahey and O'Brien were killed at 80th and Morgan on their way back from Doyle's funeral will recall that the Wilson brothers were lucky they even made it to trial. Arresting Burge, what shit!

You have got to be a complete moron. Powers was dumped, sent to call back, and is facing criminal charges. What the fuck is your point now? Yeah he had juice, but he had a MINOR fuck up and is facing felony charges for getting in a tussle at a bar.
As for you being on the job when Burge was here, well who gives a fuck. Where you a dick in Area 2? Did you witness him beating confessions out of assholes? You probably didn't know the fuck who he was until it became news worthy.
Hey I was alive when Burge was on the job. I have as much knowledge about him as you. Now go back to the lockup for some Madden 09.
The Eric Zorn story in Thursday's Tribune should be mandatory reading for any working PO as it shows how the Corp Counsel can mess us up!
10/22 12:56am You were on the job knew about police torture and didnt report it . I hope you rot in prison. Fuck stick
I worked for Jon Burge, when he was a Commander for a couple of years. He was a good boss, made sure his troops were taken care of. nicknamed us empty holster motherfuckers. So the men got hats with the logo EHMF in his honor. GOOD LUCK BOSS.
