Like a House of Cards

  • After being found in contempt of court by a federal judge, Police Supt. Jody Weis said today he has handed over a list of officers who have repeatedly been accused of misconduct.

    Earlier this U.S. District Judge Robert Gettleman ordered Weis to appear in court Monday to explain why he has continued to defy the order.
No other citizen in the United States of America would have to face unfounded accusations and have their reputation dragged through the sewers without a single finding of guilt or liability. There are reports about a "protective order" being applied to the list, but that will fail as surely as the sun rises in the east.

Time for All Of us to show Jody(no balls) Weiss and Dick Daley just how much we actually matter. No more tickets, movers, or money generating revenue. Just answer the calls and let the criminals run wild. We will become the next Cincinnatti and Philadelphia soon.

wow I stand corrected in saying that Jfed was looking our for us... As if he could not have pulled some fed strings and get the entire thing tossed... un real... I apologize for thinking Jfed was making a real effort at regaining our trust... This is going to have huge implications for this department and not good ones either! This is just indicative of what society thinks of us right now... Siding with a piece of shit playing the ghetto lottery over the men and women in blue. Sad Anyone who continues to do any work for this city, whatever your excuse (stay on a watch, stay on a car, to get a day off WHATEVER) you are a fucking moron! I really hope that the FLOP comes out hard and vocal against this! Donahue needs to make sure that if a single name is leaked beyond this case, FOP will sue the fuck out of everyone, up to and including the judge! The fear of god needs to be handed over with this list... so much so it is more of a burden than a useful tool! Anything short is a fucking disgrace!

Now I think Jody should demand the list of all lawyers who have ever had any type of complaint or comment about them made to the state agenc that governs them. After all, this is in the public interest to get rid of scumbag lawyers.

SCC & All,
I know this is a pisser of a situation and I'm irked as hell like all the rest of you BUT I do know first hand that there was a team of advisors, insiders and outsiders, lawyers and researchers, who worked non-stop on this matter all week long and they really tried. THEY REALLY DID! There IS/ARE a protective order on these list(s) and they were turned over to the judge with noted stipulations on their usage. I personally saw first hand how one (girl) worked dilligently on this issue all week long to try and keep it from getting to this point. It is what it is and J-Fed ended up doing what he thought was in not only his best interest but in the overall best interest of our city.

Just know as annoyed and as pissed as you might be about this, there really were people on our side that tried to help.

I'm sorry. I have been a hard working officer for the last 15years. I probably make 200 arrests a year and I ride on every gun call or every assist a P.O. or fire dept. call. I don't drag my ass and ride a call for ever and I eat my 30 to 45 min. lunch like all of us. Today I am offically retiring and still staying on the job. I will still ride on priority jobs as if they were for my family but I refuse to do anyhting more from this point on for this horrible excuse for a boss. I just heard on WLS radio that Weiss turned over the list which I am definitely on and by doing so has turned me into a fireman( call me when you need me). I will as always look out for the safety of my fellow officers and fire dept. members who need backup or just need a hand with something. Farewell 26 and Cal. and good luck keeping your job Weiss.

WHY STOP AT 5 CR NUMBERS WHY NOT 2?

IS THE DEPARTMENT DESTROYING ALL RECORD OF PREVIOUS CR NUMBERS!

We wake up early and get our kids ready for school. We get to work, get dressed and prepare for the unknown. We may not come home tonight and its not because we chose it. How many people go to work not surer if they are going to get home safe and see their kids again. Our job like the Fire Department are a very few jobs where this is true. For a thankyou does our Mayor applaud us? NO! Does our Mayor give us a timely raise like he does for himself and the other aldermen? NO!! Does our Superint. stand behind us when we need it? NO! Does he allow a list of 5 or more CR's to be released to the public? YES!! We should, from this day on, slow down and do exactly what this city wants us to do. They want us to "have something better to do" than pull them over for traffic offense. Fine by me, no more movers. They want us to arrest real criminals like murderers or burglars. Fine by me, that will be my only job. They want us to let them go for drinking on the sidewalk or not arrest them for a minorm offense. Fine by me, we don't work on commission! So Mister Weiss, you have managed to, in your short time here, taken a hard working police dept. and turned it into a second guessing, under paid, under manned, over worked and under equipped group of police officers. Congratulations, enjoy your $310,000.00 sallary while we are still waiting, without a contract for 2 yrs now, for a raise. God bless you men and women in blue who do what you do.

I have been reading all of your angry posts about Jody. Many of you state that you will not work for him anymore or you will now be retired while working. I know you don't mean it and you are just angry. You can still do your job and let him know we are not supporting him. Work as you always have but don't go out looking for an arrest because numbers are down.
If you go 2 weeks without a head but you got a guy for robbery or a gun then Fantastic job well done. But don't make an arrest just to make an arrest. Of course if you have a complainant you gotta do it but the city does not like us so pick and choose. This is going to be an interesting summer.

What the fuck did anyone think, that he was a stand-up guy who would go to jail to defend his troops? I am not the Great Karnack but it didn't take much to figure out that a former SAIC of the FBI would NOT defy a federal judge's order to do anything.

If the judge ordered Jody to get on all fours and take Shortshank's puny Irish prick up his ass he'd be on all fours with Shortshanks giving it to him up his bum.

This guy is NOT for us, his protestations in public are all horseshit. He is full of shit and anyone who believes his crap for one second is stupid.

Watch out for yourself and your partner, no one else will. Go home safe and do not expect anyone from the police department to ever look out for a blue shirt officer.

Jody Weis said a lot of shit at his "town meetings" with officers and detectives. All lies, all of it. He did NOTHING he promised to do. NOTHING. Got that? NOTHING.

Carry yourselves accordingly.

we cannot strike but this should be a loud enough message to us all stop writing tickets of any types, stop writing anovs and do not unless you have to do not go out looking for those one rock pinches because all that will get you is a day in federal court.

the time has come to fucking wake up and stop working until we get some fucking respect that we deserve.

IS THERE ANYONE WITH BALLS AT 35TH STREET TO BACK UP THE GOOD COPS!?!?!? Anyone???

Is the only way you exempts know how to manage the department is through over reacting???

Here is what someone who tries to be a decent, hard working cop has to say: Fuck you, bosses!

There has to be some sort of law suit or class action suit that can be filed on our behalf for having names just put out there. There's a reason cops names aren't listed in telephone books, so why are we now going to have names of cops with mere allegations put on display?

Be careful and ask yourself is it worth going the extra mile for people who could care less about you.

Jodi's been playing you for suckers all along.

Taylor already has the list, from another case. The same list the Aldercreatures wanted to publish. The same one where's there's an appeal because someone (not Taylor) wants it published. But the same kind of "protective order" you make fun of keeps Taylor from publishing it, or even using it in this case. He's no fool. He aint gonna throw away his license to practice law, or go to jail, for any client.

I can't believe you guys are falling for this.

The only reason he's fought this is to keep Taylor from proving the management of the Department is so bad that it should be held responsible for all the trouble lately.

Are you sure you disagree with him on that? I sure don't.

The problem in the Department isn't so much the officers on the front lines. It's the brass, and the mayor. That's what Taylor's trying to prove with this list.

Jodi wasn't protecting you. That was a charade. He was trying to protect Daley.

I know I have been threatened with contempt in the past for not giving this info and I did not go to jail. Thanks again JFED for standing before us. As usual, your taking a stand behind us and making way for a grand f***thon to our brothers.

OK, now this comes back to haunt us.

A lot of times a sergeant has to investigate a complaint with a real vague description of the officers involved. No names, no star numbers, no car numbers nothing except "unknown male (or female) officer" .

Now even if the beefer does not sign the affidavit, the sergeant has to go out and find the officer. OR, the officer that comes closest to that time/date/location of that incident. If the sergeant tries to turn in the investigation without naming an accused, it gets kicked back and he is told to FIND and accuse the officer. Then the officer has to be given his rights and respond.

SUCH BULLSHIT!!

If that happens five times are you on the list??

If you are on that list, and a credit bureau gets hold of it, does your credit crash!?!?

I am not a lawyer or police officer but it appears as though the civil rights of these police officers are being violated (including liable and defamation of character)and it may be time to file a class action suit against the city and those who are a party to this breach. A criminal cannot have prior convictions brought before the court but a police officer can be defamed and dragged through the media mud and court based on accusations and innuendo? Since when are police officers not accorded the same rights as every other citizen in this country? Just because a few officers may have crossed the line is no basis for the vast majority of officers, who do their job and do it well, be punished for the sins of a few. When bad policing does occur why are the bosses not held accountable too? They supervise and command the officers. If someone is not performing to expectations then it is up to the bosses to take appropriate measure to deal with the situation. It is shameful that J-Fed and Little Dick do not have balls to stand up to this nonsense. Why should the police do any proactive policing when any unfounded accusation or complaint can be used against them where doing their job might piss off someone breaking the law.
I hope you sue the city big time on this one.

I will still ride on priority jobs as if they were for my family but I refuse to do anyhting more from this point on for this horrible excuse for a boss. I just heard on WLS radio that Weiss turned over the list which I am definitely on and by doing so has turned me into a fireman( call me when you need me). I will as always look out for the safety of my fellow officers and fire dept. members who need backup or just need a hand with something. Farewell 26 and Cal. and good luck keeping your job Weiss.

As a private citizen, I have come to the conclusion albeit late in the game that those of you who advocate de-policing are exactly correct. Let the animals in the ghetto eat each other and do not do anything other than the minimum anywhere else. There is no percentage in that city to extend yourselves or jeapordize your safety any more than you have to or your personal treasure for anybody or anything. You can bitch about J-Fed but Daley is the problem. He is a failure as a leader and somehow, somewhere I believe his father is not pleased either. J-Fed going to jail or giving up the names does not resolve the problem. The problem is with the Judges, the Flint Taylors and all the others including citizens who mitigate and denegrate law and order in the City. Let the fools do whatever they want. All the other big cities and this country are crumbling as well. You cannot swim against the current for ever and you are not going to change the direction of the city and country. The thin blue line is now extinct. In the 60's and early
70's the turmoil was the result of a minority of rabble rousers. The cops of that era did a great job keeping the lid on things with extreme sacrifices made by too many and their families. But then as opposed to now, most of the everyday Chicagoans who went to work everyday and did their jobs like you did empathized with you and supported you. The silent majority we were called existed in large measure among the citizenry. When the ranks before you were restoring order downtown with billy clubs and tear gas during the convention, people all over the City were cheering you on. Police riot my ass. The fact that Bobby Rush is an elected official today makes me want to vomit and proves my point about todays citizenry. He is just one of the assholes who were causing the problems then and causing them now. So forget about the onview stuff and just do the calls and respond to the gross violations. If stupid trixie is attacked walking around Bucktown or Lincoln Park at 1am or 12:00 noon, tuff shit. Your safety is no longer guaranteed anywhere. Welcome to Detroit trixie!

Still, how does the suit which resulted in this entire ordeal reach to obtain information on every other officer in the Department?

Do you now have to interview prospective partners and ask, "How many Cr #'s do you have? After all, you don't want to get dragged into civil court because you got partnered up with a guy who got five BS beefs for doing his job in 2002 from some gang bangers who decided it would be fun to call OPS and make false allegations.

At the very least, if this is the new status quo, the legal powers that be should now realize how important the ACTUAL PROSECUTION of individuals who file false affidavits alleging police misconduct is to the rank and file.

Not on the job anymore, but what I can't understand is, why would the judge order the list be handed over on a case where one officer -- one! -- is accused of stiking some kids? What kind of fishing expedition is this attorney being allowed to go on? It's the equivilant, I'd argue, of the wife in a divorce case getting to examine not only the credit card receipts of her allegedly philandering husband, but also the receipts of his family, friends and coworkers.

Nevertheless, at this point, maybe we can make some lemonade out of this shit sandwich. As soon as just one name gets loose, just one, every copper out there should contact their alderman, congressman and the ARDC and have Taylor slammed flat blind.

For the aldercreatures and the short shank, that would be a wait of maybe an hour or so.

As for bus drivers and teachers, even the worst aren't even close to the bloodsuckers in city hall.

To 03/06/09 04:03 pm...I am shocked that it took a whole thread until somebody recognized your post, one that showed your pure ignorance, blatant stupidity and disconnect with what has become "our REAL society" by posting what you had...if you are CHARGED WITH A CRIME - (I.e. Violation of some statutory law (municipal, state, or God help you - Federal)) - you can be 'named', you are charged w/a crime...for officers, who are our protection in this day and age of liberalist social policies and overdone political-correctness, I for one would hope a line would be drawn if it is in fact true that they are not officially "charged" with any crime, but yet 'named' as someone who may/may not have done a 'disservice'...notice the use of the word...still not necessarily criminal, unless the media and population allow it to...

I was thinking of wearing something on our uniform to show no confidence in our chicken leader Weiss. Can anyone help out and figure out something that is allowed on the uniform that could get our point across? Or maybe we can all not wear any metals or awards. We could all grow beards or mustaches as a sign of unity and that we do not recognize Weiss as our boss. Any other ideas?

How about one of those plastic rally bands!

You know the the yellow LANCE ARMSTRONG cancer survior bands?

They are cheap when bought in bulk, and the money can be donated to the families of fallen officers.

We can have black with Chalkie on it... Or in blue with the letters "SCC"....

I been readin all of your beefs here. I really feel sorry for all you guys.

I am retiring quite soon and see how the current conditions of the once great C.P.D. has affected all you working young coppers.

It is a total disgrace watching you guys dread coming to work. The vast majority of you working guys cannot do the job because there is always someone to second guess you.

Try and keep your health guys and do not let this climate destroy you. If you let it get to you, you are heading for major problems at home, with your health, etc.

Old saying goes when we leave the job, "Will miss the clowns but not the circus".

May the good Lord watch over all the generation X coppers of this city. You are good men and women.

J-Feds action is no shock. of course he will follow any order from a federal judge. He took a little time and postured, like he had a set, like he "had our backs" and then gave in. There was no doubt that he would surrender the list. He was behind us and he screwed each and every one of us. But any boss would have done exactly the same. I would be willing to bet that any names of the elite officer corps, i.e. exempts that could be on the list will be conveniently omitted.
This situation should show you how inept the city lawyers are. Hell, if they were good lawyers then they would be making a load of money in a big name law office, and not as a flunky asst corp counsel, same goes for J-Feds legal advisors...(ranked 299 in law school class of 300)
I really can't wait for the repercussions of this whole thing.
The lawsuits will start pouring in as soon as the list hits the news media.. and it will. I wouldnt be shocked if they include our home addresses with the list.
Now is the time for FOP Lodge 7, the state lodge and the national lodge to get off their asses and take some action. This has to be stopped. Start a suit against the department for negligent business practices for being so foolish as to accept the vast majority of CR's because they are such complete nonsense and lies. And that their business practice has now put the well being and security of its officers in jeopardy. We are paying you to work for us... NOW DO IT. Hell, do anything, just do something.
My last bit of positive morale toward this department has been extinguished.

Yep, I’m mad, disgruntled, fed up… Our Superintendent, that promised he had our backs, gave up the list! My name is on that list. So are anywhere between 600 and 1000 of us. I’m just a blue-shirt pushing a beat car, which at a time in my career loved doing the job! I loved chasing bad guys, but then, this job was fun. Now, well, not so much. I’m mot a fan of Judas-fed, I think he’ll toss you under the bus faster than anyone. The only promise he kept, so far, was looking into the different work schedules, and Cozzie not coming back to the job! I KNOW we are in for some dark days ahead. It’s going to be a long, hot summer. Morale sucks! Some of our “leaders” couldn’t guide ants to a picnic, but somehow are running this department! Districts are depleted of manpower. Damn near everyone that has the time is retiring real quickly, with only 200 to replace them, and they might not hit the street till next year! I’m prayin that none of US gets hurt!

The economy sucks, stock market sucks, and unemployment is at a high. So it’s not like too many of us have other options. So I guess the old “Take this job and shove it” routine wont work. The good thing is; we have jobs. The bad thing is; some of the bosses around here expect us to show them gratitude because we have jobs, and are starting to hold it over our heads. Unless you have that lottery ticket, and I’m not into those type of odds. And it’s not like we can strike. I have at least 10 years left until I can THINK about retiring. Average time on the Job is somewhere around 7 years, the last I’ve heard, so a lot are in the same boat!

The point I’m attempting to get at is: WHATS NEXT? How do WE fix this shit-hole we’re in? It’s quite apparent the bosses cant, wont, or just don’t fucking know. What do we do? And I don’t think “Juniors” idea about “Growing a beard” or not wearing our ribbons is going to cut it. But, this is what we have to work with, and that’s part of the problem too. So, what do WE, and I mean WE, not 30%, not 50%, 70%, 47 1/19%, I mean ALL OF US do? Do we pull a Cleveland P.D.? Carry on like nothing happened, and keep taking it in the ass? Animal house the St Pats parade ‘cause the Dean put us on double secret probation? Seriously, what do we do from here?

(I’m betting that Judas-fed gets a few locks in the cars for the M-4’s soon, to say “Look what I have done for you, I’m still looking out for you” bullshit!)

3/06/2009 06:34 pm is correct. The policy was established by the department advocate D.M. and approved by then head of IAD and now counsel to the superintendent D.K. Let's examine the following example.
Complainant alleges unk m/w officers searched her residence without permission or a warrant. The complainant does not cooperate with the investigation. The legally required sworn affidavit is not signed by the complainant. The investigation reveals officers executed a properly authorized search warrant and recovered contraband.
The IAD investigator will render a finding of unfounded; however, will name all personnel present during the execution of the warrant as accused regardless of the fact some do not even match the description of the alleged accused, m/w. If you are documented on reports as being present, you will be named even if you are m/b, m/h, m/a, or female. This is IAD policy outlined on their web page.
The superintendent knows or should know of this policy. His hand-picked former feds are in charge of the disciplinary process. He has had ample time to correct this injustice and has opted not to. Though the policy was established by a prior administration, the superintendent has chosen to allow the process to remain thus negatively effecting the careers of decent, hard-working officers.

Who amongst us truly believes this list will remain confidential. Remember it is in the hands of The Peoples Law Office and Flint Taylor. I for one question the integrity of this bunch.

We all know somehow the list will be either "inadvertently" or "accidentally" enclosed with other documents and sent to someone - somewhere. Then it will be sent to Channel 2 were Dave Savini or the Ugly Bitch will run and exclusive on the list. After that, some PO will have his home attacked in some way. Then another PO's children will be harassed at school. And finally some innocent PO will be attacked by a group of "underprivileged" youths and seriously injured.

Just wait. Trust is a fragile concept. It is not a concept that in any way could be associated with lawyers. The Bard had it right when he suggested the termination of all these scum sucking Barristers and Solicitors. WHORES ALL!!!!!

PS: does anyone have Flint Taylor’s home address? I would love to send him a note explaining how I really feel about him and his efforts. Of course all my comments would be within the bounds of civility.

Dear Mr. Weis:

When you were appointed as superintendent, I wrote you a letter in support of what I envisioned as much needed change in the CPD. I never mailed it, for whatever reasons. It was heartfelt and sincere, full of hope.

My motivation for writing to you has changed. The first letter was to encourage you to effect much needed change in the department. This letter, written about a year later, comes with no hope, no expectation of change, no support.

The CPD is in shambles. Morale is in the toilet. You are not a stupid man. You realize this. I do not have any clout, I don’t ‘know’ anyone. I’m a detective who still works, amidst the chaos. As a detective, you have no choice to do no work. If I had the option, I would be laying down with the blue shirts.

Quite frankly, you did not know what you were getting yourself into when you took this job. My advice to you is to document EVERYTHING. Every piece of advice, every conversation, every encounter, detailing who was there and who said what. Maybe some day you can make yourself palatable by exposing the corruption in this city and state. I seriously wonder how you go to work every day, knowing what you know. Maybe one day you can reveal the truth by writing a ‘tell-all book.’

I don’t think your intention, when you accepted the position of superintendent, was to destroy an already weakening entity. However, you have become an agent of the Daley machine, and we now recognize you for what you have become.

I think you are beyond redemption. I think your soul will be forever marred from what you have done to the noble CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS who serve this city; you have destroyed the gallant characters of those who truly, without a contract, without clout, without political connections or special perks, put on a uniform they deserve to wear, and go to the war zones in this city day after day.

When you go home tonight, look in the mirror and see if you can live with what you see there. The soul that you sell to the devil carries a high price.

Signed,
DONE.

Here's an idea!!!

Call IPRA or visit IPRA online from your local library and file a complaint. "The officer said his name was G. Flint Taylor" and insert whatever accusation of wrongdoing you would like. Based on the policies of IPRA and the Chicago Police Department, all these complaints WILL BE TAKEN and then the jagoff will be on the list himself. See how much he likes that.

Maybe some of our out-of-state visitors can help with this endeavor as we all know that they will never prosecute you for a false statement, because they haven't done one yet.

Made his own bed'

FRAN SPIELMAN City Hall Reporter fspielman@suntimes.com

Last summer, Weis acknowledged under questioning by the City Council that police officers were being less aggressive for fear of piling up citizen complaints.

By releasing the names of often-accused officers only under duress, Weis is trying to boost sagging morale. The only question is whether it's too late to turn the tide.

One police insider said there is a daily bulletin circulated among rank-and-file officers that "includes pictures of all the police impersonators -- and [Weis'] picture is included. That shows what some people think of him. He's viewed as a phony.

"I feel sorry for him in many respects. But in others, he's made his own bed."

Richard M. Daley.

Don't ever forget that.

And don't ever again allow a mere 22% of the registered voters to shove Richard M. Daley down our throats!

In my opinion the best thing the rank and file can do is to for as many officers as possible go get 5 CR numbers as soon as possible. generate them on yourself anonymously if needed, just get them. Nothing serious, just CR numbers that cannot be proven. That will keep IPRA and IAD busy for years and will blunt any argument by G. Flint Taylor.

Remember, you can always get a CR number on yourself at any time to investigate any allegation. Use your imagination, go online and put in a bullshit beef, whatever.

Some years ago the Department used to get an automatic CR if an officer was found to have no city sticker or expired plates. They spent $1,000 to $2,000 investigating every one of these bullshit CR numbers. My district always had several going at any one time, multiply that by 25 and then the units. Lot's of expensive and useless investigations.

So, get creative and let IPRA and IAD choke on bullshit investigations.

Then let Jody release that list to whoever the fuck he wants.
