008 Search Warrant (read ALL Updates)

From the comments. Search Warrant in the 008th District last night. Cops grabbed a bunch of guns and upwards of a kilo of dope. There might be little problem:
  • An occupant of the condo started dropping her mother's name;
  • mom might be on the lease papers;
  • mom is a cop;
  • mom's nickname is "The Bartender"
God help us.

UPDATE: Chicago Breaking News just posted the story at 0815.

UPDATE: More
This is looking bad.

UPDATE: We have nuisance laws in this town. If criminal activity is going on in your building, you are subject to criminal penalties and civil forfeiture of the property. It happens constantly. There's even a "Problem Building" unit that works with the Building Department, Corp Counsel, Housing Court and others to seize property. You are responsible for your building.

We have red light cameras in this town. If your car is photographed by a red light camera, the driver doesn't get a ticket - the owner of the the car gets the $100 hit. "You are responsible for your car" is the argument. And if you attempt to appeal it, you go before a Hearing Officer who's only purpose is to generate revenue for the City administratively, and you will lose.

Reading the above two paragraphs, it's amusing to see the cover up beginning and the media playing along:
  • Officers recovered 175 grams of cocaine and four guns in the home, and the man allegedly admitted "criminal involvement," Bond said.

    He was charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of ammunition and firearms. Neither he nor Cuello's relative was identified.

    "At this time the investigation has revealed the relative had no involvement with the offender's criminal activity," Bond said. No other arrests were made.
Four guns and a-third-of-a-pound of blow and the "relative" has no idea what was going on? But she's dropping mom's name everywhere? Sorry, not credible. Dude is taking the weight, plain and simple.

Looking back, Cline didn't allegedly beat any bartenders or allegedly beat any businessmen or allegedly steal any dope money, but he resigned. We're hoping someone does the right thing and resigns today.

Here's an interesting observation: If there were no SCC, would a man at the scene have been arrested? Would drugs and guns have been recovered? Would the incident have been covered up to protect the brass? I believe it would. For all the complainers and naysayers ragging about this blog, its existence forces superior officers to play shit straight or risk exposure on this SIGNIFICANT website.

This is what you get when the city continues to hire and promote according to Race and Sex. Daley wants to know how the 14 year old can work in a district? Because of the illegal hiring practices and promotion practices of the city, that why. In this case the dep. sup. didnt even live there anymore but it still tarnishs her name and she will pay now with her career. This is not the first time her daughter had trouble. Personally I dont dislike her the boss that is. Should she ever have been that high of a boss?? Never, period.

___________________________________

Amazing and un-fucking believable!!! So the little daughter had no idea that her LIVE IN boyfriend was a dope dealer? That her LIVE IN boyfriend had over a kilo of dope in her house? That her LIVE IN boyfriend had four guns in the house? Mom and dad only knew that he was self employed but didn't know what he did for a living and they were OK with someone they knew nothing about living with their daughter in the condo that they paid for? And to top it all off, when they came in and recovered the dope, guns, and dealer boyfriend the innocent little daughter threw out moms name and threatened the officers on the scene. Yep, sounds like there was no involvement there.

It's not looking bad. The official word is out from Monique Bond, CPD spokesperson, CPS official, Aviation guru, OEMC maven, etc. The daughter had nothing to do with it, the bad guy admitted to everything. Move along, nothing to see here folks.....


100-1 this all goes away quietly and without any negative consequences for the high-ranking police official in question. I hope I'm wrong, but history and the way this department works leads me to believe otherwise.

AND THE SPOKESPERSON FOR THE POLICE HAS THE GALL TO TELL THE MEDIA THAT THE DAUGHTER HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS CRIMINAL ACTIVITY.

Whether or not Aunt Bea had knowledge of this on-going criminal activity should be a matter that is UNDER INVESTIGATION!!

Look up all of Bea's name checks on CLEAR as well as all the name checks run by her staff and find out if this arrestee's name was ever run or if any information about him was ever requested.

If I'm reading this story correctly she owned the condo, but didn't live there.

Of course it does make her look bad since her daughter is involved.

I own a small apartment building and if something naughty were going on there I'd like to be given the benefit of the doubt.

Of course if one of my children were involved my foot would be so far up their ass they could taste the shoe polish.

("The condominium is owned by Assistant Supt. Beatrice Cuello, said police spokeswoman Monique Bond. Cuello's daughter lives in the condo with the suspect.

A man with a long arrest record was taken into custody after drugs and weapons were seized in an overnight raid at a Southwest Side condominium owned by a high-ranking police official.

Casey Crawford, 28, had been living at the condo in the 4500 block of West 56th Street with the daughter of Asst. Supt. Beatrice Cuello (lower left). But authorities said the daughter did not appear to be involved in any illegal activity. Cuello does not live at the condo.
----------------------------------
Don't know about anyone else with kids, but I can absolutely guarantee that I would know if my daughter's boyfriend had a "long arrest record". And while I may not be able to force an end to the relationship (although watch me try), I can absolutely guarantee that said boyfriend would not be living under any roof that I own! One source I read said that Aunt Bea was under some delusion that this guy was legitimately "self-employed". Wow, I don't even know where to begin! If you can't keep the dope dealers from operating UNDER YOUR OWN ROOF, how can you be trusted with helping to lead an entire police department. What a damn joke!!!

Let’s be fair about this. HAVE THE FBI INVESTIGATE.

Consider this scenario:

You have a son or daughter. You try to help your son or daughter out and be the best parent you can be. You purchase a condo for your son or daughter and try to be a good parent. Your son or daughter lives in the condo.

You find out that the condo you purchased for your kid was hit with a search warrant and that your kid has been dating an apparent goof. Dope and guns are recovered. As a parent you are livid and pissed off. As a police officer, we would all be livid and embarrassed that our child subjected us to this.

This type of incident has happened before with the children of police officers and will continue to happen with children of police officers. We cannot control the lives and behaviors of our grown children. Shit happens, yet we continue to jump on the “blame bandwagon” just like the media and want to throw our own under the bus.

When I came on the job, we didn’t throw each other under the bus. We defended each other. Anybody who is a police officer, who thinks this shit is funny is a complete asshole and police hater. We are a family and should act like it. Everyone and their mother wants to see bad press on the police and thrive on it. Apparently, we have become just like the media and left wingers.

And by the way, when narcotics and guns are found in a building or premise that anybody owns, the Department and city must show “owner knowledge” to hold the owner of the premise accountable, so get your facts straight.

Beatrice Cuello, Deputy Superintendent of Patrol, Chicago Police Department

Bea is witout a doubt a good person. Sorry to say the daughter has for years hung out with thug wanna be gangster pieces of trash. 008th district officers have had plenty of contact with the daughter over the years. This is not Bea's fault, more of her embarassment. Parents want to be proud of their children and hold their head high as they boast about them. Obviously Bea cant do that today. As far as Bea being an Exempt, Jody made a good choice. Bea is an administrative police officer if their ever was one. She may not have been the greatest street officer, but she wasn't bad at that either.
Did Bea interfere ..... No
Did she threaten officers or run into the 008th district hooten and hollering, jump the desk? (ala another exempt along with his police officer son when his other son was locked up, and then scream racism: 2years ago...No.
This whole thread continues the classic whining by police officers with the "Us against them" or Blue shirt / White shirt mentality. (Yes there is some truth to it, but not in this case or when it comes to Bea.)

Funny thing happened at the city council meeting while they were grilling weis. One alderbitch complained about rapes on the south side not getting the media coverage that the north side ones get (uhhh, not the police dept.s fault, talk to your media lackeys) and was very upset as to the lack of women present and even said "i dont see beatrice cuello here, where is she"......(insert cricket noises)...... LOL.

Based on the questions and comments at the hearing look for the P.O. and her sgt. to get nailed. South side alderf%@ks specifically stated that they do not want the D/C or the W/C held accountable (go figure) despite finding out that the door (which was probably functional) was just left open habitually and ignored by them as well. They are more concerned with the P.O. with 2 years on being duped by a young man in a uniform who was in an area where only police officers should be (unsecured station is not the P.O's fault!!) and the sgt. that had her on his log.

I will agree that there is a lot of blame that could be passed around. But the first head on the block should be the person who is in charge of the whole building for allowing her station to be constantly unsecured.

Oh and they also wanted to know the proper procedures for processing female prisoners. Seems a "certain" female prisoner was cuffed to a wall for 7 hours and was not put into lockup and they feel that was not right. Im sure they would be complaining if she was put back there too.

After watching one of these meetings, it is amazing that anything ever gets done in this city.

Now that I have read all of these posts, almost all of them are like sharks sensing blood in the water and your planning on a feeding frenzy! Talking a lot of crap too. Asset forfeiture, there has to be prior complaints on the house with the owner not living there. Cuelo, I believe was promoted way beyond her abilities but thats on j-fed. She is a nice person. Ed is a level headed boss with lots of common sense and hes reasonably intelligent. The only thing I totally agree on in these posts is that Bea's kid should be just as culpable. If that had been my warrant, the whole house would have went. Blue shirt, white shirt it doesnt matter the kids a piece of shit with trash friends But is an adult that doesnt live with mom and dad. The one post brought up hamiltons kid in the popes. Crosset (father lieutenant) and Art (uncle sergeant) were ashamed of those kids. The one brother even had a conspircy going to kill his own brother over gang shit. They were grown and didnt live with the police relatives. Uncle and father were great coppers. My own kids dont live with me and most of the time I have no idea what they are up to. All you can do is hope you raised them the right way. Although my kids would be afraid I would kill them if they brought something like this to my door. Just try to put yourself in their shoes for a minute. I would suffer a lot if this happened to me because I would have a hard time looking the police in the eye, and I havent done anything. Worst case is I failed as a father.

SCC,

Here's an interesting observation: If there were no SCC, would a man at the scene have been arrested? Would drugs and guns have been recovered? Would the incident have been covered up to protect the brass? I believe it would. For all the complainers and naysayers ragging about this blog, its existence forces superior officers to play shit straight or risk exposure on this SIGNIFICANT website.

Just a thought..........

Thank God for SCC, someone has to keep these Gold Star rascals on the straight & narrow ! We all know that nothing will happen to Bea, but the arresting officers just may be in for a good spanking courtesy of Bea & Co.

How much you wanna bet that the States Attorney quashes this whole incident ???? Girls will be girls !!!!!!!!!!

the comment about the city taking the property can be done. A relative of mine rented a property to a shit bag and all they needed was more than two arrest on or around the property to put the screws on you. Fines. If the third arrest happens within 6 months YOU GONE, you lose your property. Thaht's the truth.

It's ashame how this department has transformed into, it really is. Remember when you could count on your brothers and sisters in time of need? Now it seems that the city is so quick to throw you to the wolves and try to seperate the person in question. Anyone on this job with more that a few years on has been confronted with a situation where a friend or family member has done something precarious and you name was dropped or requested. We all came on this job to help, in some way, it's in our nature and job description. It's also a terrible thing to be judged by your peers, the very people that you have relied on for help. None of us, not one, are free of faults. The new generation is quick to point fingers and be void of responsibility. Harry Truman had a good point, "THE BUCK STOPS HERE".

That's what happens when Jody comes in and has no idea about people's history and has one interview with the person, then promotes them. To run a police dept and make promotions that high, you need to know everything about the person and where they come from.

How long since you you fell out of the cabbage cart and into the academy? Do you really think Weis had any choice in picking Cuello? I may not like the guy, but he was force fed all those people. They are ALL typical Chicago clout hacks.

Has Aunt Bea been called down for a drug test, relieved of her police powers and sent to call back pending the investigation? Trust me, in the past officers who lent their cars to a relative and a street stop found dope in the car, the copper was put through some changes. So, IAD - are there different rules for bosses?

J Fed just announced on FOX 32 that it will take several more weeks for the investigation into the 14 year old to be finished!

WFT?

SCC had it down in less than 48 hours!

Who is working this case, Barney Fife?

And if Commanders are responsible for their units and districts, Why is the Burger Queen still an Exempt? She had the "Ultimate" responsibility for security in that facility!

Who is the District Manager? Are they not also responsible for the working conditions of that building? And what about Property Management, they are suppose to check that doors and windows, etc., are in working order.

Take the 4th dist., (naw, I don't want it), on nights, the temperature reaches 85-90 degrees and people open doors to let in cold air, in the summer, they turn off the air (to save shanks dough) and they have to open the doors for fresh air because it's steaming in there! And that ain't the only building doing that, there are dozens of them with the same problems. The District Managers, Commanders and Property Management Supervisors have no business in running a building, they are all political hacks!

Crosset Lee Hamilton was never a Deputy Superintendent. CLH retired a Lt., nothing higher. He knew about his kids - and never went to bat for either one of them.
He had two claims to fame - executed a guy at 26th and Cal holding a judge hostage and locked up Ed Kelly's kid and wouldn't back down. Easy man to work for? NO! Cuz he wouldn't cover for anybody, including his kids. At least you know where he stood.

From the CBS Two website:

Cuello, the highest-ranking Latina in the Chicago Police Department, has been absolved of any involvement.

"She has no involvement in this. Right now the investigation has revealed that the offender who was charged and arrested, who also admitted that the relative that was residing in the unit had no involvement," said police News Affairs Director Monique Bond


Gee, why didn't the Officers in 003 get the same 7 minute long investigation into possible misconduct?

Chicago Police Supt. Jody Weis stood by one of the top officials in his department today despite the arrest of a man on drug and weapons charges in a home she owns.

Weis said he would not reassign Beatrice Cuello, the department’s assistant superintendent for administrative services and one of the top three cops in the department’s hierarchy. Weis said he was saddened by the news and had extended his support to Cuello.

How long has the daughter been shacking up with the self-employed boyfriend in the First's home?

Were they paying the First rent from his self-employed income?

Are these guns stolen? Straw purchases?

On my way home from OEMC, WBBM radio said ..."No charges will be brought upon the owner (BC)."
Now , from a mother's viewpoint, guess the owner did not have a good mother/daughter relationship that it kept her from setting foot inside said condo , meeting the drug dealing bf, etc. But then , maybe..........the owner/mom tipped off the FBI so they could remove him from her daughter's life and not have her daughter be mad for meddling!

All eyes will be on the Sup to see how he handles this especially after what he did to Cozzi. If he fails to take action I believe that what he witnessed last year in reduced activity and increased violence will seem minor compared to what he will see this year. I'm sure Bea spent time with her daughter thus time with her felon boyfriend. Against G.O.'s. To claim ignorance would be just as bad as knowing. She should step down and the Sup should be the one requestng it.

Im sure the tact guys wanted to lock her up, the daughter knows whats going on and im sure they both used that to there advantage when it came to there drug dealing i could see her driving around dropping off packs for her shithead boyfriend and using her mom as a scapegoat, but im sure some ball less boss thinking of his own future made the decision not to take her, we all know what happens to coppers careers when they fuck with the politically connected. two occupants in the abode 179 grms of cocaine multiple guns, and they made the determination she had no knowledge or involvement, sounds like a career save move. im sure the guys in the 008th wanted to do the right thing but some boss pulled the plug.

A credible department would dump or suspend Cuello.

Daughter was there and her names on the lease, period. Even if there was no cover up (yea right like what if there is a big foot), you have to take action.

Otherwise the rank and file will see it as elitism and Cuello will lose further credibility (if thats possible).
and the department will see its morale plunging further as the big shots once again take sides with the bosses over PO's doing their jobs. PO's have been suspended for less.

On that not dont know what more shocking, Cuello allowing this to happen...

...or the fact the 8th district tact team actually did a search warrant....a positive one at that!! Now that in itself is newsworthy!!!!

"I've learned about it in the proper amount of time," he said. "I'm very sad. I know the Asst. Supt. Is very upset about this. It's a mom trying to take care of her children and it's a very sad day."

He said he is not placing Cuello on leave pending the investigation.

"There's no reason to do that at this time," he said.

When asked whether Cuello could be held responsible as landlord of the building where drug activity was taking place, Weis said that he doesn't think Cuello has responsibility because of her daughter's boyfriend's actions.

Well, here's the real problem. No one thinks that Cuello is involved, but those are not facts and should be investigated...at the very least. You can't have someone privy to sensitive Police/FBI information and their daughter is in a gang and supplying drugs and weapons to the gangs. The daughter and boyfriend both should have been arrested if they were both there. How can one say, while holding a bag, " I didn't know anything", when you're right there in the condo during the raid. It was very "suspicious" to say the least, that the daughter didn't get locked up and raises the question, was it because of the mother's position on the department. The investigation and trial will be compromised, once the dealer threatens to put out "police secrets" that he has heard over the dinner table. The gang has a direct pipeline to the top of the police department. Heaven help us!

Let me get this straight. The arrestee moved into the condo as soon as Dep. Sup. Cuello bought it and has lived there ever with Cuello's daughter since. But the department claims the arrestee is "an acquaintance" of a "relative" of the Dep. Sup.. Whenever there is an allegation against any normal department member there are months and months of "investigation" before the department has any comment. Yet, guns and dope are seized in a home owned by the highest ranking female on the department (not to mention a longtime L.A.P.A. and H.D.O. member) and Weis exonerates her and her daughter without so much as a second glance. He and Ms. Bond both putting as much illusionary distance between Cuello and the dope/guns as they can. They even state there's no need for any further investigation. CAN YOU SAY COVER-UP? My God, this is absurd. Seeing as how Dep. Sup. Cuello owns the dopehouse but allegedly has no knowledge or involvement in the dope and guns EXACTLY WHERE DOES SHE LIVE? Is the condo her phony Chicago address? Is she violating the residency requirement and keeping her dope dealing "acquaintance" and her "uninvolved" daughter there as a alibi address?
