Damn, That Was Fast
- "[Cuello] 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.
You know it has to be true because Monique said it. Just like when she was saying the 14-year-old police wanna-be "never drove a squad car," "never had contact with the public," and "never wrote any tickets." Oh wait...that was the brass.
Just for comparison purposes, here's J-Fed at the City Council grilling Friday:
Just for comparison purposes, here's J-Fed at the City Council grilling Friday:
- [J-Fed has] called on the Secret Service for an independent review of department security measures. Weis says an internal investigation of the [14 year old police impersonator] incident will be completed Feb. 23 and disciplinary action may take place then.
So, an Assistant Superintendent's property is the subject of a positive search warrant for guns and drugs and one of the occupants, who actually resides there, doesn't go to jail - under 7 hours to be absolved of any culpability whatsoever.
Fourteen-year-old kid dressed as the police, gets a radio, gets a locker, gets a partner and does more work than half the watch and most of 35th Street - 29 days and someone is taking big time.
It's so blatant, it boggles the mind.

And they wonder why the rank and file hate them. The chasm between the Ivory Tower and us has never been deeper or wider.
And the double standard has NEVER been greater than under Jody Weis.
"Nothin' to see here folks. Just move along."
It's pretty cut and dry when you are investigating yourself.
I thought Monique went with Humberman?
Again jody... why wasn't this just as dirty little bitch who just happens to be the daughter of #3 under you locked up!!!
Kudos to the Alderman (beginning of part 3) who said "how many times can we beat down our officers, .... bring in the dept of Common Sense!!! Further, that they'd created the problems making the Police facilities a social center with the CAPS which they spend 10mil on and that money should be deflected instead to hire more officers to put on the streets!!!
He needs to be Mayor!!!!

Where I work they call heroin DOPE more than they call it BLOW. I'm a white dude, so i call everything dope (crack, heroin, weed etc.) it confuses the fuck out of the shitheads.
Im not sure if I have this right. Bea's condo, Bea;s daughter living there with dirtbag? 175 grams coke? multiple handcuns? Supe does not see appearence of impropriety? Well I guess if your in to that kind of thing you now know how to insulate yourself.
So let me get this straight. Police officer admits his mistake, accepts his punishment, apologizes to the "victim", completes all the requirements to get his job back, and he's sent back up the river without a paddle by J-Prick as an example to all P.O.'s Exempt has her daughter living in a house she owns get caught with dope and guns in it and where boyfriend was selling guns out of, the Exempt claims "RO has no knowledge?" and is being publicly cleared by J-Prick in the media less than 24 hours later? Yep, that sets the right example for the exempts that they will be protected. "Do as we say and not as we do lowly blue shirts."
OT: will somebody please tell 11-DUB-litzky to stay off the radio. this alleged supervisor continues to embarrass himself everytime he talks on the air. do us all a favor and leave your ego at home. we would hate to hear that you got pepper sprayed again. nobody is impressed, unless its a double 2 do nothing sector car [time on the end for not doing shit car]. by the way, i saw a vacant project building on fire.....

Months later headlines...
The City Council today approved a 1.4 million dollar award to a man falsley arrested during a raid at a high ranking police officials property where he was arrested and the actual resident was not.

Memo to any news media folks who monitor this blog.
You are nothing but a bunch of card carrying prostitutes.
Why the venom? Newspaper accounts of Assistant Deputy Superintendent Beatrice Cuello's daughters’ incident seemed to have passed right by your inquiring minds. One veiled comment in the Saturday Tribune article dealing with Superintendent Weis's City Council Hearing is all I saw. I might add that the article is authored by a Hispanic woman. Maybe a "pancho pass" here? The event wasn't addressed anywhere in the Sun Times.
Why isn't the same coverage given to a high ranking Hispanic police woman that's given to a lowly male white officer? Me - me, teacher call on me. I know!!! You're whores plain and simple. You have the integrity of a jackal. You have the morale fabric of a piece of cheap toilet tissue. You are feckless fools - period stop.
Go on line and see if there's a service that will allow you to either purchase a pair of stones or some seeds to grow some.
Chicago Officer Slain in 1853 May Finally be Honored
Posted: February 6th, 2009 12:08 PM GMT-05:00
By Angela Rozas, TRIBUNE REPORTER
Chicago Tribune
Chicago police may soon have a new cop to honor as its first officer slain in the line of duty.
In an about-face from previous police administrations, Supt. Jody Weis has applied to add Constable James Quinn to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, saying he was killed in the line of duty in 1853. He was fatally beaten.
If approved Friday by a committee of the Washington-based memorial foundation, Quinn would bypass Casper Lauer, stabbed to death in 1854, as the first officer killed in Chicago.

-------------------------------
You must not have made a narcotics arrest in at least 10-15 years in Chicago and nice profanity. I applaud every working copper out there with no clout that protects the citizens of our city. I read your blog all the time, sometimes I agree with your comments and sometimes I disagree. However, it is obvious that you don't make many arrests.
If she had any integrity, she would have resigned already.
if it were anyone else, they'd be stripped and taking reports at callback until the investigation is completed. and then, if the officer was found not to be involved, it would still take the better part of a year to complete the investigation.
this is just another in a long list of examples of why the majority of po's have no respect for, or confidence, in jody weis.

yup and get the gsp readout for Bea's car and see how many times it has been by the condo
it's hard to imagine why morale is at an all time low around this place.
If it were me or you. Big investigation. Exempt (clout) sweep it under the rug. Different rules for different players.
Let me see..Cuello's daughter lives in the same condo with man who has 4 guns and almost a kilo of coke. I hope she was the C.I. who attested on the search warrant. How could she not know about the illegal items.. I mean what was it a 4 or 5 room condo? How does one hide 4 guns from his girlfriend.. I'm sure he only cut the cocaine when she was away... Has mom tested daughter..maybe that will give some answers. She lived there she knew what her lover was doing... She never contacted the police, so isn't she accountable?
Sorry SCC, I back you most of the time. One of your comments is way off.
Lets go with a little police fact first.
I work in OCD. The unit does thousands of search warrants a year. My team does plenty to keep the aforementioned number up high. When I was on tact/gang team we did plenty of SWs. The vast majority (99%) of the SW's has a target along with what is going to be searched for (I know you know this). I am willing to bet that Mr. Crawford was the target. I'm sure guns, dope, and other contraband were included on the Warrant. I'm sure the CI or UC who's info was used to obtain the SW didn't know the condo was owned by BC.
I've ranted long enough. Lets get to the real point. Every search warrant I've been on unless dope, guns, etc, etc is found on an individual other than the target. Said individuals are released after a name check. The target came clean and when that happens everybody else is let go unless a name check reveals an outstanding warrant.
I have never seen an SW done different. I'm sure pressure was put on Mr Crawford to take the weight but, thats life in the city. BC has plenty of egg on her face now and department has received a fresh black eye.
Thats just the way it is. Sure a nobody might have had a little heat put on them but it would have came to nothing.
Keep up the good work SCC. I still support you.
"Media listen up.

Instead, simply check who ran the guys name though CLEAR, HD and LEADS. Dont put it past them to have one of their cronies run the guy for them. If one of the their pets ran the name, and they are the usual house mouses, they need to explaine why the name was run.
If all is clean, end this nonsense. Right now it is only speculation. The case certainly is not closed after 12 hours, that really makes Wies look like an idiot. (Who the fuck is advising this guy).
I hope it all comes clean for the police involved. Even if if those police are exempts. Not talking about you Jodie, you are not, and never have been, the police.
I got accussed of planting dope on some shithead that I caught dirty, went to ops twice and waited 9 months before they came back with a not sustained. Glad to see they took their time and thooughly investigated this one for a whole 7 minutes. I guess I should have just told them that I knew nothing of this and it would have tken a lot less time to investigate. Oh and BTW, I had NO previous accusations like that against me. Got to love the double standard of exempts to THE REAL POLICE, and I'm sure if this happened to a blue shit Aunt Bea would be in the front of the line demanding blood. Commander Ed, I truely am sorry you got caught up in the middle of this. You don't deserve this.
Sorry if stepping out of line, but where's some display of common sense with Cuello, regardless of street experience, what about a mothers instinct:..Knock knock..hey momma, whats up my baby...oh, I'm sorry I didnt know you had company, who's this....ummm momma I want you to meet my new boyfriend, he'll be living here in your condo with me...oh, hi, whats your name...well mom, he doesnt say much, his name is Casey, but we all just call him K-Rock.....Oh, how nice Mr K-Rock, ummm, nice tattoos, was that your Cadi Escalade with the nice rims on it, I parked next to? Oh, really, a friend from work lets you drive it...so, uh, where do you work Cas..I mean K-Rock, ohhh you're self employed...oh, thats so nice....Come on, we cant expect a little more from her?
2 sets of rules.

NOW GO GET SOME DAMN HEADS!
Bartender B has clout so J fraud ignores the problem. Any poor beat cop put in the same position gets screwed thats the chicago way.
The real scandal is that Bea's kid,the occupant of the residence, was not arrested.I'm sure she has no idea what coke or guns look like.The leaders of this pathetic, joke of a police department are truly a bunch of assholes.Clout runs this whole corrupt state.
perhaps we could ask the secret service to look at this one as well?
Hey that case will get thrown out. The police planted that dope and guns. They do that all the time don't you know..
This is long-time HDO clout. They are the raft that keeps the Mayor floating on top of this sewer.
HDO has sent the word to the papers and TV that continued negative press of their members will result in reduced advertising dollars.
Only FOX news seems not to care.
For example, how is that Al Sanchez trial going? Papers don't have much to say about it?
The Cuello story will never be referenced in the papers again after today.
Hey! Gimme another Budweiser!
I'll bet if that was some swingin' dick Patrol Officer that owner the condo, he'd be stripped and flushed down the crapper by now.
I think these comments show the biggest division in this department.
There are those who call this a family affair. Don't blame Bea for her family's mistakes.
These are the officers who grew up around gangs/drugs. Some of their friends were/are gang members. They know people who sell dope and guns. They know people locked up for gang activities and worse. Some of their family might even sell dope and guns. Some of tehm might be locked up.
These officers understand Bea's situation because they're in it too.
Then, there are the cops who call this a disgusting, inexcusable embarrassment and Bea should be fired.
These are the cops whose friends and family have jobs. Some are more successful than others, but each can take care of themselves and their own families. A very few may have one family member who is a drug addict and because so he has been expelled from the family because the family doesn't want to have anything to do with his BS. They don't know anyone in prison and never knew anyone in a gang.
These are the cops who used to run this department. These are also the cops who have finally told their children and their friends' children that being on the CPD is a dead end job. Do something else.
These are the people who are rapidly fading away in this department.
And what you will have left is a bunch of inner city gang apologizers taking their place.
This job is gone forever.
Double standards at it's finest.
J-FED SHOULD TREAT ASSIT.SUP. B. CUELLO THE SAME AS HE TREATED OFFICER COZZI. IT WON'T HAPPEN. SHE IS A MERIT PROMOTION AND HEAVY. THIS IS GOOD FOR MORAL
Seize all property.
Suspend owner pending full investigation.
Dump the beaster.
I said it before, in an older thread. Weis disqualified himself from being able to conduct a fair, impartial investigation when he made his statement regarding Bea.
Since he and the mayor are so fond of outside agencies, I think the FBI (and Jody has few fans there) should come in and FAIRLY investigate Bea.

Oh man! You are way too easy. Dig a little deeper, will ya! Bea, Ed and J-Weasel are not rocket scientists, but they might have been bright enough to have a subordinate do the dirty work. Just check all the PC #'s that have viewed or viewed and printed the bangers sheet. One of them just might work for J-Weasel, Bea, or Ed or be a rank equal to Bea or Ed. Then just start asking questions. This thing will unravel right quick. It's a piece of cake. Do I hear a bingo? Oh yeah!
like i said before...nothing will happen to the female minority! was hilarious that jfed couldnt answer any questions in regards to daily routine, g.o.'s, or just regular police procedure. punted every question to the chief. funny how everything is under investigation! lol!! back each other up and the 1st and the 16th! let them kill each other. no contract no workie!!!
Aunt Bea comes away with no discipline. She should be fired just by the way she wears her hat. WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aunt Bea is a dumb thang who doesn't even belong on this job. She can't even keep track of her bust out daughter let alone the CPD patrol division.

o/t...
something new in the c/o book about "zero tolerance" for any and all rule infractions. if field supervisors have knowledge of any infraction by department members and do not initiate disciplinary action, the field supervisor in question will be disciplined along with their immediate supervisory member.
signed:
charles williams
deputy supt. bureau of patrol
& head of keepin' you punk-ass blue shirts in line!
...sound familiar boys & girls?
everytime there's a "newsworthy incident" involving the police, this is what the exempt echelon leans on to show they're on top of things.
after nearly 20 years i've seen this act again & again. i anticipate soon we'll see the same pravda-esque pronouncement emanating from 35th st. by orders of city hall.
punishment & retribution is all they know... years to get an award?
no problem. just mere HOURS or even less for them to drop a goofy- assed c/r or spar in your pocket("you didn't genuflect before my supervisory superiority swiftly enough office as i am a police diety, congrats on being a member of the spar of the day club").
alas, someone would be stupid enough to say this crazy shit to a policeman in some shape form or fashion, if they haven't already. (whatup tho' 11-dub & tricky!)
now the bosses are scared & pissed because coppers are doing EVERYTHING HUMANLY POSSIBLE to minimize their exposure to jackpot supervision & hah, i-gotcho-azz discipline by just answering calls, doing case reports and arresting only on signed complaints and backing up their fellow officers. they hate that coppers are getting so good at self preservation.
How about getting Informational Services to determine if Aunt Bea ran the offender (boyfriend) using the Department Database. That would be a good indication that she knew something about this.
Isn't there some kind of law that holds the property owners responsible for any and all criminal activity that occurs inside or on the grounds of the building? And dipshit Cuello being a police officer, isn't she to be held to a higher standard than a regular citizen?
HEY CHICAGO PRESS
Why has the condo not been seized?
Also, Until the rather long investigation into the sale of narcotics, guns, and PAST afliliation with gang members, why is the officer not relieved of duties and relieved of her badge?
If it was a patrolman, he would be stripped of his badge immediatly.
Why does this person still have FBI clearance and access to sensative information?
Would you hire exempts because of who they know/blow or would you hire exempts that do a good job? If they are a shitty Lt, then odds are that they would make a horrible exempt.
They should make it so exempts can only be those that pass the promotion tests based upon their score. If you are a shitty test taker, then you probably aren't exempt material..but keep going Jodi/Mayor..try to find some good bosses out of the merit hacks on this job because you are not going to find them.
Get rid of merit and raise the morale of the department..its free, and the only crybabies will be the ones with this "clout" that does not exist right????
These morons can't decide what to do with all the SOS guys they have fucked over for 2 years now but when it comes to a clouted hack exempt, all is well in like 3/4 hours. The city that works....if your clouted.
j-jag you suck,you aint the cops,never where and never will be.go back to the fucking fbi where you belong .you one way,no good prick
Again, I didn't know he was living in my condo, I didn't know the type of person he was. I didn't know he sold dope. I didn't know........ Shut the @#$% up you lying sack of #$&*
I've got it, by golly!
Colonel Mustard did it in the library with the candlestick.
Hmmmmmmmmm...i know if my daughter or son starts dating a suspicious shady looking character your gonna bet the farm i'm gonna do a background check on him or her. Heck even if they're not shady or suspicious you would look up their history. Come on, you mean to tell me aunt bea is that out of the loop with this whole thing? Doubt it. Either she is a terrible mother who doesnt care about her daughter and what shes doing or she knew exactly what was going on in that house. Either way she's a complete embarassment to this department.
Let's see. The supt asked Bea if she knew illegal felonious activity was occuring in her own home, and Bea said no. The supt says oh thank goodness you had no knowledge, you are just fine.
Bea's statement that she didn't know was taken as the gospel truth by Weis. She should have been moved to a lower and less sensitive position while a full investigation is completed by an outside agency.
The boyfriend said that the dope, money and guns are is, and that Bea and Baby Bea didn't know anything about his illegal felonious activity. Weis said oh thank goodness again, that's exactly what Bea said. Weis also took the arrestee's statement as the gospel truth.
Detectives - please stop wasting so much time finding witnesses and family members and neighbors and backtracking evidence and building timelines and getting phone records and conducting so many interviews when trying to solve the homicides occuring here in the murder capital of the nation.
When the person of interest tells you that he didn't do it, he didn't do it. When the good citizen tells you he didn't see nothing, he didn't see nothing. When the girlfriend says he was with me, he was with her.
Thank you Weis for finally teaching us how to expedite a criminal investigation. No wonder our clear up rate is so low, we've been doing it wrong the whole time. It finally took a feeb.
If this stuff even surprises anyone anymore you are a moron. This city and department were, are, and always will be a joke. Sad but fucking true.
See just like the video said dont step outside of the umbrella and you will be ok. I guess she didnt.
I wanted to wait a few days to post this to see what was in the papers, and in the rumor mill. Here is my opinion.
There have been many comments here stating something like "she should have known what her kid was doing" "she should be held responsible, it's her condo". Sorry I am not buying that. I don't know Cuello, but I've heard of her like everyone else on the job. Is she over her head in her job? Maybe. Or probably, I don't know. But I agree with the one or two posters who say that the owner (if not a resident) has to be shown to have knowledge of the illegal act to get stuck with it. Just like when junior uses Moms car to do a drive-by. Mom doesn't get charged unless she says "take the car and shoot someone", and that statement is PROVEN. So forget that shit. As to "it's her condo, she should know"? Sorry that don't fly either. She does not live there. When she visits, is she supposed to turn the place out? Maybe she doesn't go over there, who knows? I will agree that this looks bad, and life is about perception. Looks bad to the public, looks bad to us. But lets ask a question, and see if someone can give me an honest answer. Not knee jerk-honest. If the parent were a blue shirt or an "unclouted" anything, would the posters here be calling for his/her head? Or would the comments tend toward "He/she didn't know the kid was shacked up with an asshole". Or "he/she didn't check the house for drugs or guns when he/she went over there". Or he/she doesn't live there, the kid does". Just because Bea is in the position she is in, how about we try not to cook her here, just as we wouldn't want to fry a "regular" PO.
Kick away, I just can't fall into line on this one.
I'll lead the investigation.
I know where to find the crack.
SpankDaddy.
This is unbelievable. WBBM-AM, for example, is still running reports about the "14-year-old cop" incident -- the slightest hiccup about it is instantly updated -- but the spectacular story of Assistant Superintendent Beatrice Cuello's dope house seems to have disappeared from the airwaves.
"The fix is in" -- as it was when not one second of the Obama rioting was telecast.
Cuello's daughter and her boyfriend are really small potatoes compared to the vermin in City Hall and Headquarters, aren't they? They just sell dope and guns; the Mayor and Superintendent and friends undermine the Republic.
"You won't get arrested if your mom's a high-ranking cop."
Thus do we engender respect for the law.
Which was faster? The exoneration of Bea C. or the 7-minute abs tape?
another perspective (among others) here is....let's assume that B didn't know exactly what was going on in or on property that she owns (so, she doesn't violate the city rules, etc.; which I don't completely buy anyway); if so, then what that shows is her complete disregard for or ignorance of any activities occurring in or on property that she owns, which is indicative of a lack of judgment, character, intelligence, and common sense. If J-Fed is going to apply "accountability" and "responsibility" (personal and professional) to the CPD, she's got to go (along with some others, by the way); then again, with Shortshanks on the 5th floor, and MM (Minnie Mouse?) at 35th St., maybe that's expecting too much...

OPS doesn't handle this type of beef, IAD does.
The problem that we all have here is not as simple as saying we all have bad kids. That is not the problem. The problem is the fact that just because Bea said she didn't know about the criminal activity doesn't mean that she really didn't know.
We demand that she be put in call back as a Lt until a thorough investigation is completed. We demand you prove to us that Bea didn't have any idea that her daughter was involved with a self admitted gang member selling guns and cutting and selling cocaine from her residence.
Most drug and gun houses are operating under the owner's knowledge. We always follow the evidence, and we always further investigate.
So prove to us that the owner of this condo on 56th street had no knowledge of the gangs, guns, money, and naroctics in her home. We need more than she said so.
010 side door still don't lock and no one is gaurding it. The door goes right into the broken lock up door. 2 weeks after that emabarassing incident. Apparently the commander there is unable to secure his station. There is a nice sign on the door that says "caution the lock works"
hey Sarg J-Mo in 2. mann shut dat rap music off whenz youz da desk sarg. it aint professional joe. and whilz you beez at it, enough of the hero bullshit stories already. ima goin to thrown up my white castles on your fake azz.
I think the point is that most everyone believes that if it were a blue shirt in the same position they would be treated differently. I think a little investigation into what people know should be conducted before she is cleared. It does not seem like this could be done in so short of time. Facts will come out one way or other and hopefully the right thing is done.
I posted earlier that WBBM-AM did not seem to be covering the Cuello case; I was wrong. I heard a story tonight over the air, and here it is from their web site.
"Bond was set at $150,000 Saturday for a suspected gang member following a Thursday night raid that produced drugs and weapons from the Southwest Side condo of a high-ranking police official.
"Casey Crawford, 28, is charged with one count of possession of a controlled substance, four counts of possession of a firearm without a FOID card, one count of possession of ammunition without a FOID card and four counts of theft of lost property, according to police News Affairs.
"Cook County Judge Israel Desierto set bond for Crawford at $150,000 during a Saturday morning bond hearing..."
http://cbs2chicago.com/local/
casey.crawford.beatrice.2.
929414.html
Now -- "The incident has prompted an internal investigation by Chicago Police into how Cuello's condo became the target of a search warrant."
What the hell does this mean? Does someone feel that the raid was a mistake?
Again -- "God help us." I'm starting to think that should be the new city motto...
More fun here from WBBM--
"Cuello was appointed as head of the Bureau of Patrol a year ago by Weis, making her the first female deputy superintendent. Before that, Cuello had been commander of the Ogden District on the city's West Side. She was later promoted to assistant superintendent.
"She has been with the Police Department since joining the force 22 years ago.
"Friday, an anonymous police officer wrote on the 'second city cop' Website: 'We have nuisance laws ... if criminal activity is going on in your building you are subject to criminal penalties. It's amazing to see the cover-up beginning.'
"Cuello could not be reached for comment."
http://cbs2chicago.com/local/
police.official.raid.2.928583.

That same "anonymous police officer" has also repeatedly called for Cuello to resign.
Keep up the good work, WBBM -- and SCC.

Kick away, I just can't fall into line on this one.

It's not really about whether she should be fried. It's about the disparity in investigations between her and the "little people" who get raked over the coals for literally years in similar circumstances. A friend of mine spent 3 years at callback before being vindicated in a case with NO evidence at all yet Aunt B is cleared in less than a day? pathetic...
I got clout what you about??
Casey took the rap..come on guys if the girlfriend would have been an ordinary shithead she would have been locked up. I mean how many times have we locked up people who always say they knew nothing. She would have been locked up and let the judge sort it out. Common sense tells me the daughter knew everything that was going on and should be punished. Isn't it the girlfriends moral duty (esp. knowing mom is a Dep. Sep.) to deep six this asshole boyfriend or at least tell the police about his illegal activities. Oh I'm sorry she didn't know.....Yea Right!
But lets ask a question, and see if someone can give me an honest answer. Not knee jerk-honest. If the parent were a blue shirt or an "unclouted" anything, would the posters here be calling for his/her head? Or would the comments tend toward "He/she didn't know the kid was shacked up with an asshole". Or "he/she didn't check the house for drugs or guns when he/she went over there". Or he/she doesn't live there, the kid does". Just because Bea is in the position she is in, how about we try not to cook her here, just as we wouldn't want to fry a "regular" PO.
Kick away, I just can't fall into line on this one.

Let me ask you a question. What if this was a blue shirt or lacked clout? The mother would have been stripped and sent to call back world for years. Weiss did a 45 minute investigation. WTF! Clout is clout and always taken care of. Equal treatment is a sound bite.
The question isn't did they run a name check. The question is could they find anyone who knew how to in the office they work.
Cuello should just resign and leave quietly. It appears as though her daughter wasnt raised in the right environment and now its coming back to haunt one of her parents. God only knows where the father is at! Just leave Bea and let the rest of us hard working officers move on and try and bring some dignity back to The Chicago police Department. Remember you are a high ranking member. We are totally embarassed by your family and the actions they took, which we all know that you knew what was going on and who your daughter was dating. Just do everyone a favor and bow out quietly!
Isn't there a new ordinance where residential property can be seized if its used for narcotic sales. What are the chances they'd try to take Cuello's condo?
HEY CHICAGO PRESS
Why has the condo not been seized?
*********************************
I'm pretty sue that this takes some time to do. Maybe after a conviction? Can someone from asset forfeiture answer this one?
He/she didn't know the kid was shacked up with an asshole". Or "he/she didn't check the house for drugs or guns when he/she went over there". Or he/she doesn't live there, the kid does".

im going to go out on a limb and say, first you have kids
second you are a white shirt
The only reason this even made the news is because some cop leaked it to the media, something everyone should remember, the new police, we are doomed....
aunt bea must not be to close to her daughter-- shackin up with a gun totin dope slingin thug in a property in her name-- sorry, but if this was a blue shirt, he/she would have been in a heap of trouble-- two sets of rules again-- do as i say but not as i do.
I got accussed of planting dope on some shithead that I caught dirty, went to ops twice and waited 9 months before they came back with a not sustained. Glad to see they took their time and thooughly investigated this one for a whole 7 minutes. I guess I should have just told them that I knew nothing of this and it would have tken a lot less time to investigate. Oh and BTW, I had NO previous accusations like that against me. Got to love the double standard of exempts to THE REAL POLICE, and I'm sure if this happened to a blue shit Aunt Bea would be in the front of the line demanding blood. Commander Ed, I truely am sorry you got caught up in the middle of this. You don't deserve this.

OPS doesn't handle this type of beef, IAD does.
2/08/2009 12:20:00 AM
I do apologize. It was a while ago and you are correct. Regardless it did take 9 months and several trips and this took less than a tour.
The only reason this even made the news is because some cop leaked it to the media, something everyone should remember, the new police, we are doomed....
I absolutly agree... The police out there today have no respect for each other. I don't care if it was an exempt boss or a patrolman, if I was in charge of that warrant my first call would have been to the parent and we can figure out TOGETHER how to best handle the situation. I hope whoever made the call to the media, it comes around to bite you someday.

You're so fucking easy that, were you a 12 year old female 10 years ago, you'd have at least 13+ kids by now, with 13+ different baby's daddies.
J-Fraud does not ignore Bartender B because sh has clout.
J-Fraud ignores her because she has clout and he knows she is off-limits.
The paper said it was about 175 grams of stuff. That's only about 6 ounces.
Last of points to disagree but one: if Bartender-B was a PO, she's be at Call-Back and on her way out the door.
A gangbanger is arrested with dope and guns and is found to be sharing a condo owned by a high ranking police official's daughter.
I think that rates more than a 7 hour investigation.

##############################
Shouldn't they wait until someone is convicted of something before that happens? Oh, wait, Cuello has fewer rights than you and I. My bad.
You all sit here in your underwear in your basements ANONYMOUSLY commenting on how could B of not known, how the daughter could of not known. First, Her daughter is THIRTY YEARS OLD. She pays the mortgage to live there. Crawford has NO tattoos, is not a known gang member, does NOT own a "pimped out" car. He drives a beat up dodge intrepid. He's a painter. He did not live at the residence, but did sleep over often. Everything found in that condo was in ONE bedroom and it wasn't the one occupied by her daughter. She was extremely cooperative with police after finding out what everything was about. As for the comments on, her daughter being a dope head, 8th knowing her for hanging around gang bangers. Shes NEVER been affiliated with any gang members. Check the books. There's more than one daughter. You people just grab what you hear and stick it to whatever sounds worst for the situation. It's not THAT unlikely that B would be making frequent trips to her 30 YR old daughter's residence and not suspect foul play.
It took the team 2 hours to find what they did. It wasn't like it was out in the open, for everyone to see.
Because her condo was hit with a warrant and guns and dope were recovered with a known gang-banger living in her condo, perhaps her FBI clearance should be looked at.
Tip for poor Bea: set your kid up in a condo far away from Chicago, try Idaho or Kansas. The kid obviously doesn't care if she embarasses you.
Or, just stop enabling all together and tell the kid "you're on your own" and don't be supplying the roof, money, food, jobs, etc. Enough.
I understand you want to do the best for your kid, but when they don't care and shove it up your ass time and again, can't do no more for them. Period.
Being a parent of grown children and being the police, I must say that I have a way of observing what goes on in all 4 of my daughter's lives though none live with me. Their is NO WAY Asst. Supt. Cuello can ever say she had no knowledge.
Also, the city is cracking down on landlords, which include condominium/homeowners and being responsible for what occurs inside of that residence. She also headed up that unit. How is it now she has no responsibility? Also, her daughter is the one who dropped her name and mother fucked everyone and was clear, "you don't know who my mother is!" The Assistant Supt. also received a call right before it happened as a courtesy. How legal and appropriate is that? Also, her daughter's name is no where on ANY reports and it is written in the report that the offender "voluntarily admits to ownership of all illegal items!" He is just going to court and telling the truth, I was scared because of who my girlfriend's mother is, so I took the wrap!
But what is more humiliating is just hours later the Superintendent says she is completely cleared of any wrong doing regarding this!! He also referenced during the CAR meeting that the police should not have notified the media that she owned that residence and talked about how inappropriate their behavior was, etc! WHAT??? Last I checked, she accepted that position and everything that goes with it! Tax payers who pay her over $150,000.00 a year deserve to know what she is doing with their money and if she is linked to a fucking crime!
Jfed, Thanks once again for showing us your true colors. Does it have anything to do with the fact that she takes your wife shopping and hangs out with her on the weekends and at any functions you may attend? Hmmmmmm?
If she was so innocent, whey did the Asst. Superintendent call 9 Aldermen, yes 9 to give them a heads up and 6 ministers!
Did she have an approved Ad Day or Vacation day on Friday? She was no where to be found!
If this were one of us, we would be hanging right now, out to dry! Cline was asked to resign for less and Rodriguez was asked to resign for having lunch with someone he grew up that was a convicted felon. Since the offender in this case is also a convicted felon, has her interaction been addressed regarding this?
I am just embarrassed at being the police right now. The Superintendent made us look like an idiot on Friday, Dep. Chief Dana Alexander made us look even more stupid, he couldn't get his facts straight and if the Alderman could have told him to shut up once more, I am sure he would have asked him to leave, the Superintendent kept deflecting to the few bosses he brought with him because he did not know shit, and we still keep paying him $300,000.00! Who was that guy from IAD? Who the fuck is he and how come he changed his story 3 times in one sentence as to where the property was stolen from. The Supt. first said he had no knowledge, then he starts giving possibilities as to what was taking!!! A brand new lap top worth $500.00 from an empty desk! Come on, what kind of fool do you take us for?
We have gone from vomit to shit since Jfed has been here. Mayor Daley, as long as he is here, we the troops will keep feeling like shit and we will go no where as a department. If the Asst. Supt. does not resign tomorrow, that is a slap in all of our faces. From your Chief of Staff making illegal arrests, interfering with an investigation and carrying a gun (that is a felony right?) to your 3rd in Command housing a convicted felon who is dealing drugs and selling guns that may ultimately kill a kid, innocent bystander, or one of us, the police!
I am not doing shit anymore!!!! I work in Area Two that is headed by the biggest bullshit artist next to you Jfed, Dana Alexander! At least I like my Commander, but not enough to direct my troops to do shit! Sergeants, lets take a stand! You can take that to the bank!
Be careful of what you say...
It could backfire on ya'

FORT WORTH — Hundreds of people who posted their opinions of a sexual assault trial in an online forum are now the targets of a lawsuit.
The authors of those comments on a Web site thought they were anonymous, but this week, a judge ruled their names should be revealed.
Mark and Rhonda Lesher lived quietly in northeast Texas; Mark practiced law, Rhonda ran a beauty salon.
Then, last year, a woman accused the couple — along with another man — of sexually assaulting her. That's when the anonymous comments started appearing on Topix.com.
An estimated 1,700 statements were too graphic to be included in this story, going far beyond the criminal charges.
"They were perverted, sick, vile, inhumane accusations," said Mark Lesher in a telephone interview from Clarksville, Texas.
The Leshers' attorney, William Pieratt Demond, labeled the comments "a form of persecution."
ALL I WANT TO HEAR IS HER GOING TO CALL BACK AS A LT.
Talked to one of officers on the search warrant who stated that aunt Beas daughter was well aware of the pcs that was being sold out of the apartment. In fact the narcotics scale was on her dresser in plainview within her bedroom with white cocaine residue all over it.
I bet if this was anybody under the rank of commander, and there kids house got raided and the house was in the p/os name the p/o would be stripped pending the outcome of the IAD investigation. Which would take years of course.
Did'nt our ex sup get fired for being friends with a ex con.
Work is, that there are several nieghbors that reported suspicous activity going to and from aunt BEAS condo. IE gun and drug sales.
Oh well, me and the other 15 police officers love using this computer at our part time. Also, if you didn't do anything wrong, then I guess you don't have to worry about what people say or what is reflected in any police report huh, especially what is posted on SCC.
If this is the case then I say all the anonymous heads up posts need to stop. No more tips. Wow, what would SCC do? SCC or the blog owner may be forced to release our IP addresses!! NOOOOOOOOO
I absolutly agree... The police out there today have no respect for each other. I don't care if it was an exempt boss or a patrolman, if I was in charge of that warrant my first call would have been to the parent and we can figure out TOGETHER how to best handle the situation. I hope whoever made the call to the media, it comes around to bite you someday.
You are a liberal idiot ! It's not like she got stopped with a small bag of weed or was 17 and had a six-pack. THERE WERE GUNS AND COCAINE in her place of residence. That's not gonna get swept under the rug and if it did, that would also make the news that a high ranking member (even though she doesn't seem to belong that high) used her power as the asst. 1st dep. to make this whole situation go away. J-fed would then hang ALL of the peon patrolmen and their sergeant and maybe even lieutenant out to dry for not doing the right thing and making an arrest. Right now, we are damned if we do and damned if we don't. But, damned if I am gonna get myself or my team members in a jam because some incompetent, over-promoted boss is gonna tell us to change the facts of the case on paper. Some boss in gonna FORCE me to commit a rule 14 violation? I and many of my peers have given PLENTY of family courtesy to police relatives, even though they really deserved to be arrested, ticketed, cracked...whatever. and yes, there are police, new and old, that give no courtesy to anyone and they are jagoffs for that. but, to ask someone to jackpot themselves or co-workers because princess let herself spin that far out of control and momma if the asst 1st dep.? BULLSHIT !!!!!!!!!!! As a parent, i would hope for some courtesy, but this is a little worse than a slap on the wrist offense!
What about nepotism on this job? And when did we have civilians with the title if Commander? That's a sworn title. Yet we have Commander Robert Roman over General Support and his bride Mrs. Roman working for him. That's a double slap in officers faces. No one follows the rules but us. Sad and bad leadership.
You all sit here in your underwear in your basements ANONYMOUSLY commenting on how could B of not known, how the daughter could of not known. First, Her daughter is THIRTY YEARS OLD.

So in essence you are saying that because the "stuff" they found...the 5 stolen guns and 150/160grams of coke.....wasnt out in the open then its ok right because mommy couldnt see it. And because he doesnt have any tattoos or any flashy cars or supposedly not a gangbanger then that makes him a good person because mommy couldnt see those either right?? Cause thats ok then too right? R YOU F'N NUTS! Its was HER BOYFRIEND YOU MORON!!!!!!!! OF COURSE SHE KNEW!!!!!!!!! Seems like to me he was a very smart/careful piece of shit as not to draw any attention. And for Aunt B knowing or not....what does the fact that her daughter was 30yrs old have to do with anything???? THE CONDO WAS IN B's NAME YOU MORON and if she was like any other caring parent of course she is gonna frequent the place where HER DAUGHTER LIVES!!!!!!!!! ESPECIALLY IF HER NAME IS ON THE GODDAM THING!!!! Maybe you need to take the thumb outta your ass and smarten up moron. Its doesnt take a rocket scientist to sniff out a dirtbag moron, especially if your daughters dating one. She's a High Ranking Boss on one of the Country's largest police departments, YOU BET YOUR ASS SHE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. If I have to be held to a higher standard just like my fellow officers in blue, then so should she! And next time you wanna bust on people posting anonymously, you might wanna at least leave your initials stroke and not leave an anonymous
post like you did.

If anyone can come on here and say with 100% certainty that they know what their adult child is doing all the time they are either lying or extremely naive, the truth would probably shock the hell out of you...
Media listen up. Jfed, this is quite simple Maybe FOIA can help the media. obtain bea cuello and ed odonnells pc# (computer login numbers) have the state police and IAD see if either of them have ever looked up a criminal history or name checked casey crawford. If they have, then they knew what he is about. If they have not, then the investigation is over.
2/07/2009 06:13:00 AM
Oh man! You are way too easy. Dig a little deeper, will ya! Bea, Ed and J-Weasel are not rocket scientists, but they might have been bright enough to have a subordinate do the dirty work. Just check all the PC #'s that have viewed or viewed and printed the bangers sheet. One of them just might work for J-Weasel, Bea, or Ed or be a rank equal to Bea or Ed. Then just start asking questions. This thing will unravel right quick. It's a piece of cake. Do I hear a bingo? Oh yeah!

Fuckheads that shit is illegal. You can't do a "backround check" because dude is tagging your daughter. So nobody is going to look into it because legions of assholes(like you) would be in deep shit. No wonder the Dept is fucked we got assholes like you who don't even know what is illegal and what is not. Bottom line is keep that cock holster shut until something not retarded comes out.
J-fed would then hang ALL of the peon patrolmen and their sergeant and maybe even lieutenant out to dry for not doing the right thing and making an arrest.
When did I say don't make an arrest. I probably would of handled it the same way with the boyfriend going to jail. And I never said change anything on paper, so I don't know what post your commenting to. The only difference is that I am not telling the media about it. What is J-Fed going to come down on everyone for??? An investigation revealed that the non-live in boyfriend brought dope and guns over to the house.. And thats another point that I don't think ever came out, who was the target of the warrant??? If it was the boyfriend, thats proves your investigation.
"I don't care if it was an exempt boss or a patrolman, if I was in charge of that warrant my first call would have been to the parent and we can figure out TOGETHER how to best handle the situation."

Your solution: TOGETHER, you/bosses can figure out how to make this kind of nonsense go away. Their wee-knee scratches your rumpus. You can never have enough tubesteak clout in these trying economic times.
I am retired and living in Florida. I rent my condo in Chicago. I did a credit check and background on the lessee through the internet. I have not been in the residence in over a year. According to your theories I should be accountable. What is wrong with you people. How many of you own ghetto properties. Perhaps the CPD should investigate all sworn who own rental properties to ensure there is no criminal activity. Do you even see where you are going with this? Leave well enough alone. We are entitled to some privacy.
Didn't a P.O. in 004 get relieved of his police powers last week for a search warrant being conducted at his home?? Not sent to callback but relieved!!!
It's not really about whether she should be fried. It's about the disparity in investigations between her and the "little people" who get raked over the coals for literally years in similar circumstances. A friend of mine spent 3 years at callback before being vindicated in a case with NO evidence at all yet Aunt B is cleared in less than a day? pathetic...
The "kick away" post was mine. You are right, this did call for a longer investigation, and it's unfair to just make a judgment in 45 minutes. Especially considering all the people at callback who are there on way less evidence than this.
To the poster who said I have kids and a white shirt? Right on both counts. So I don't get an opinion? In my original post, I was trying to look at a bigger picture than what we read in the papers and hear from the rumor mill.
Imagine that. I suppose the TRUE way to Job Security is over eyeline your eyes,wear pants a few sizes too small,get a Commander hard once in a while, DO NOTHING and DENY DENY DENY. Next stop for her....."assisting" Jodie Wuss
But let a beat cop do that.......SUMMARY EXECUTION and Shortshanks gets the noose as a prize.
SO CAN I DO BACK GROUND ON RELATIVES IF I BELIEVE THEY ARE INVOLVED IN CRIMINAL ACTIVITY?
WE DO IT TO PEOPLE STANDING ON CORNER DOING NOTHING ILLEGAL!
THAT IS WHAT A NAME CHECK IS!
IF I CANT HOW CAN I BE AT FAULT FOR HANGING OUT WITH A FELON IF I CANT CHECK IT OUT 4 MYSELF!!!
PERSONAL BACKGROUND CHECK ALL NEW EMPLOYEES RELATIVES! ISNT THAT THE SAME THING?
MAY BE THAT RULE NEEDS UPDATING
DOESNT J-FED RUN ALL HIS APPLICANTS 4 EXEMPTS SPOTS?
DOESNT PERSONAL RUN R NAMES EVERY MONTH TO SEE IF R DRIVER LICENSE R VALID... NO PROBABLE CAUSE RIGHT? THEY R JUST CHECKING R THEY WRONG?
J-FED HAS ALL THIS TRAINING YET HE IS MORONIC ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
IM OFF TO DO SUM CRUNCHES AND POWER SQUATS SO I CAN CARRY A CARBINE!!!
Theres a big difference between obtaining a warrant for selling guns and for possessing guns. This dude was selling guns, and we seem to have a little bit of a homicide problem, I think. How many guns do you think this dude sold to other gang members that may have been used in past agg batts or homicides?
If anyone can come on here and say with 100% certainty that they know what their adult child is doing all the time they are either lying or extremely naive, the truth would probably shock the hell out of you... I CAN SAY 100% FOR A FACT THAT MY ADULT KID IS NOT LIVING WITH A GANGBANGER IN A CONDO IN MY NAME DEALING LARGE QUANTITIES OF COKE AND PISTOLS...THIS I AM SURE OF!!!! HOWS ABOUT YOU DEPUTY????

Because many properties owners have renters who conduct illegal activity in the apartment and toss the owner extra cash to look the other way. When the renter is arrested for conducting that illegal activity, and the owner is confronted with the fact, the owner naturally says he/she had no knowledge. Duh?
Well just another FINE EXAMPLE of how an Exempt and a split tail can literally get away with ANYTHING.Has anyone heard of Culpable Liability? She "held lease or otherwise provided a majority of the funding for the residence THEREFORE is responsible for the conduct of those under her immediate care and control." Funny, when i worked in Housing thats how I nailed the dope people. And good point made about the PC. That should be checked and if she is found to have "intimate knowledge" of the 'alleged' offender then it makes her part of what we now call a Calculated Criminal Drug conspiracy.Or at VERY LEAST Armed Violence(gun,dope,money in the commisssion of another crime)Oh wait I almost forgot Im in chicago and not in the REAL world anymore.
Perhaps some annonymous info to Fitzgerald at the AG office might knock this tumor off the side of the Ivory tower. food for thought.

WRONG to the above poster. Civilians are never sworn in as Sworn personnel or in sworn titles such as Commander, Lt., Sgt. etc. They are hired as Directors not Commanders. This is just some new BS. Name one civilian Commander in the past 20 years?
Don't know about the nepotism but spouses aren't supposed to be under direct supervision of their hubbies. Something is up with that. Can't advise you on what to do about that. The Department doesn't seem to follow the rules it sets. Call IAD. Snicker.
Well, what is really important regarding this whole case is truly how the department handles it. Assistant Supt. Cuello is the 3rd in command of CPD and her husband is a Commander. Both have access to sensitive information and have been placed in the positions they currently hold because of experience and knowledge of police procedure and just having that extra special touch regarding crime, therefore instinct alone should have impacted this whole situation.
Now, what the city has to do is make the Superintendent do his job, no matter how close she and her husband are to him and his wife. We direct resources to target property owners in cases like this, especially when guns are involved. She ran the unit for almost a year. Also, that was not a small amount of drugs and a substantial number of assault type weapons. Regardless, she is still responsible for what occurs in her property. We have at least 300 home owners that we have focused on in the past few months, and we have spent thousands of city dollars to target them. Why should she be held at a lesser standard? Hello Law Department. I would say there are a lot of truly innocent and unaware property owners out there that have to face the music. She should be one of them. I do know that 14 Chatham area owners have already secured counsel and are waiting for the city to respond. I don't blame them for suing. The sad thing is, the Aldermen they reached out to has a sympathetic ear to the Assistant Supt.
Now lets look to the unions. How many police officers have been relieved of their police powers for the same thing? It was a P.O. named EH in 004 that was relieved last week for a similar search warrant incident. All the police that are in callback and all of the ones who are suing for your job back, this is a perfect example to be used to sue the city!!! This is blatant, arrogant and biased in regards to our great leaders, Supt. Jodi Weis and the Mayor!
A good friend of mine witnessed with his own eyes the people assigned to this Assistant. Supt. shredding papers all morning at her office at 35th and Michigan. Now that looks pretty suspicious.
At this point, too much time has gone by. The department's response has set a precedent. I say it is more than enough time for the unions to sue and for property owners to sue.
Lets see Jfed and Mike Masters crawl from under this one! Thanks to the both of you. You have really made me proud to be the police!
>>>WRONG to the above poster. Civilians are never sworn in as Sworn personnel or in sworn titles such as Commander, Lt., Sgt. etc. They are hired as Directors not Commanders.<<<<
There are exceptions, certainly not the semi-military ranl of Sgt. or Lt.or Capt.
But there have been never-was-the police-before-civilian, "Commanders" or "Deputy Superintendents". It may have to due with the scope of there authority and whether they supervise sworn personnel.
Jody himself was sworn in, as I am sure any FBIer he has or will bring in. I am sure Orlando Wilson (was a cop but in California), and Mitchel Ware had to raise their right hands.
Hasn't it occurred to any of you who are so quick to bash a white shirt, a Spanish surname, a female, a boss or whatever, that the reason that this matter was so quickly closed out is that the CI in this case may have been Bea Cuello HERSELF.
I have worked in 010 for years and know Bea Cuello as a good person and a good boss.
If she picked up information, she would have done the right thing.
She would have passed it on, surveillance was done, a warrant was obtained and there was a positive result.
J-fed would then hang ALL of the peon patrolmen and their sergeant and maybe even lieutenant out to dry for not doing the right thing and making an arrest.
When did I say don't make an arrest. I probably would of handled it the same way with the boyfriend going to jail.

you stated,"the best way to handle the situation"...correct ? what do you think she would've said, "lock up my baby" ? i doubt it. you are a grown up with the legal authority to take the life of another human being if justified and you want to call momma or daddy of the bad guys girlfriend to come up with the best way to handle it ? i hope that you are not a supervisor, because you are shaky at best ! drag her ass into the station and let momma pick her up..not charging her IS the courtesy. i have inconvenienced a few patrolmen and women by having them come into my district and actually showing them what junior is capable of. when a phone call gets you the answer of "my kid would never do that", thats when courtesy is left to drag mom or dad out of bed or out of work to pick up the kid. i've even done it for a guy that his 20 year old made a bad choice , but we smoothed over the situation. since dad had to leave work and come to our district and pick up his kid, the hulking 20 year old bodybuilder got a smack in the mouth from dad, and the kid apologized to dad, them to me and my partner for his stupidity. now i ask you, if we just gave him a pass, he would probably keep up his antics. to me, he actually seemed sincere and dad was more than appreciative that 1) his kid didn't get locked up...and 2) he was made aware of his giant adolescent's activities while dad was at work. so...give aunt b's kid a totally free pass ? ABSOLUTELY NOT. let her call mom, the asst. 1st dep. and have her drive to 008 or homan square and pick her not so innocent princess up.
"Talked to one of officers on the search warrant who stated that aunt Beas daughter was well aware of the pcs that was being sold out of the apartment. In fact the narcotics scale was on her dresser in plainview within her bedroom with white cocaine residue all over it."
I KNOW FIRST HAD THIS IS COMPLETELY FALSE. LIKE I'VE SAID BEFORE. IT TOOK THEM 3 HRS TO FIND ANYTHING AND THAT'S WITH THE DOG. NOTHING WAS IN PLAIN VIEW. AND THE DAUGHTER WAS COOPERATIVE. STOP MAKING SHIT UP
"I absolutly agree... The police out there today have no respect for each other. I don't care if it was an exempt boss or a patrolman, if I was in charge of that warrant my first call would have been to the parent and we can figure out TOGETHER how to best handle the situation. I hope whoever made the call to the media, it comes around to bite you someday.
You are a liberal idiot ! It's not like she got stopped with a small bag of weed or was 17 and had a six-pack. THERE WERE GUNS AND COCAINE in her place of residence. That's not gonna get swept under the rug and if it did, that would also make the news that a high ranking member (even though she doesn't seem to belong that high) used her power as the asst. 1st dep. to make this whole situation go away. J-fed would then hang ALL of the peon patrolmen and their sergeant and maybe even lieutenant out to dry for not doing the right thing and making an arrest. Right now, we are damned if we do and damned if we don't. But, damned if I am gonna get myself or my team members in a jam because some incompetent, over-promoted boss is gonna tell us to change the facts of the case on paper. Some boss in gonna FORCE me to commit a rule 14 violation? I and many of my peers have given PLENTY of family courtesy to police relatives, even though they really deserved to be arrested, ticketed, cracked...whatever. and yes, there are police, new and old, that give no courtesy to anyone and they are jagoffs for that. but, to ask someone to jackpot themselves or co-workers because princess let herself spin that far out of control and momma if the asst 1st dep.? BULLSHIT !!!!!!!!!!! As a parent, i would hope for some courtesy, but this is a little worse than a slap on the wrist offense!"
The SGT. called his CMDR when he found out, his CMDR called B, informed her, CMDR called SGT., SGT. stated "give her my # if she wants to call". B did NOT call NOR interfere. She didn't EXPECT anyone to do any favors. She didn't even know the severity of the situation. If she was as dirty as you all like to think, don't you think her ass would of BEEN there in minutes?
So in essence you are saying that because the "stuff" they found...the 5 stolen guns and 150/160grams of coke.....wasnt out in the open then its ok right because mommy couldnt see it. And because he doesnt have any tattoos or any flashy cars or supposedly not a gangbanger then that makes him a good person because mommy couldnt see those either right?? Cause thats ok then too right? R YOU F'N NUTS! Its was HER BOYFRIEND YOU MORON!!!!!!!! OF COURSE SHE KNEW!!!!!!!!! Seems like to me he was a very smart/careful piece of shit as not to draw any attention. And for Aunt B knowing or not....what does the fact that her daughter was 30yrs old have to do with anything???? THE CONDO WAS IN B's NAME YOU MORON and if she was like any other caring parent of course she is gonna frequent the place where HER DAUGHTER LIVES!!!!!!!!! ESPECIALLY IF HER NAME IS ON THE GODDAM THING!!!! Maybe you need to take the thumb outta your ass and smarten up moron. Its doesnt take a rocket scientist to sniff out a dirtbag moron, especially if your daughters dating one. She's a High Ranking Boss on one of the Country's largest police departments, YOU BET YOUR ASS SHE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. If I have to be held to a higher standard just like my fellow officers in blue, then so should she! And next time you wanna bust on people posting anonymously, you might wanna at least leave your initials stroke and not leave an anonymous
post like you did.
*M*C* 008th district
"J-fed would then hang ALL of the peon patrolmen and their sergeant and maybe even lieutenant out to dry for not doing the right thing and making an arrest.
When did I say don't make an arrest. I probably would of handled it the same way with the boyfriend going to jail. And I never said change anything on paper, so I don't know what post your commenting to. The only difference is that I am not telling the media about it. What is J-Fed going to come down on everyone for??? An investigation revealed that the non-live in boyfriend brought dope and guns over to the house.. And thats another point that I don't think ever came out, who was the target of the warrant??? If it was the boyfriend, thats proves your investigation."
The target was Casey Crawford. No mention of the daughter. AND he did not live there, yes he frequented but never an actual resident.
"so...give aunt b's kid a totally free pass ? ABSOLUTELY NOT. let her call mom, the asst. 1st dep. and have her drive to 008 or homan square and pick her not so innocent princess up."
AGAIN, the daughter didnt ASK anyone to call mom. The sarge did it on his own, told his boss to have her call, she didn't interfere at all. The decision came from the person in charge of executing that warrant.
They are gonna regret that they gave the daughter a pass instead of locking her up.
"Media listen up. Jfed, this is quite simple Maybe FOIA can help the media. obtain bea cuello and ed odonnells pc# (computer login numbers) have the state police and IAD see if either of them have ever looked up a criminal history or name checked casey crawford. If they have, then they knew what he is about. If they have not, then the investigation is over.

yup and get the gsp readout for Bea's car and see how many times it has been by the condo"
-----------------------
from personal knowledge, i wish they would so you all would stop with the blame. she has absolutely nothing to hide about her knowledge of this
The best "defenses" offered here in the Cuello dope house case - and the deepening silence in the media as the days pass -- only make it more obvious that how clout is protecting Cuello and her daughter.
"[Assistant Superintendent Beatrice Cuello's] daughter is THIRTY YEARS OLD. She pays the mortgage to live there."
-- 2/08/2009 06:34:00 PM
Oh.
In other words, she's an adult who's responsible for what's going on there?
I guess not.
Beatrice Cuello's name is on the tax rolls as the owner of that condo.
In other words, she's an adult who's responsible for what's going on there?
I guess not.
"Crawford...did not live at the residence..."
Oh.
In other words, he's just a secondary player?
I guess not.
Think a minute. Where have we heard this routine before?
"The bedroom be where Shavonna hide the dope, you see. Shavonna don' know that Dexter come last night while LaVergne be up in the building with Tyrone. Know what I'm sayin'? MyKeal, he tell Antonius to hold the dope for Reevon."
OK. Have it your way.
"Squad, we need a wagon over here."
"give aunt b's kid a totally free pass ? ABSOLUTELY NOT. let her call mom, the asst. 1st dep. and have her drive to 008 or homan square and pick her not so innocent princess up."
