West Side Follies

  • U.S. Marshals and the Chicago Police SWAT team responded to a barricade situation near the intersection of West Madison Street and South Homan Avenue which lasted a few hours this afternoon before being resolved without injuries.

    According to Chicago Police News Affairs Officer [...], U.S. Marshals happened to be in the area at about 1 p.m. when they heard loud reports in the 3300 block of West Madison Street.

    They saw people run into a nearby building on Madison. Moments later a female in the building got their attention and said there was a man with a gun inside, Kilmer said.

An e-mail relates that two subjects with pistols engaged another subject with a rifle, blasting back and forth across Madison. The US Marshalls were filming some "COPS" type show of them arresting fugitives when the gunfire erupted.

And the twist?
  • The 011 District Commander was driven directly into the "hot zone" in front of the building and dropped off. Her driver left with her car and returned 15 minutes later with her bulletproof vest and star that she had left back at the station.
  • How does this moron go to a scene of multiple weapons being fired without a vest AND how does she leave her star behind when her first month of being in 011 is marked by stopping people in the hallways for being out of uniform?
Another brilliant exempt move by J-Fed is already providing years worth of comedic fodder.

THIS DEPT IS RUN BY WANNABES AND THE COUT HEAVY STUPID FOLKS THAT THINK THEY KNOW SOMETHING. YOU DONT HAVE TO LOOK FAR TO SEE THE POS THAT ARE IN OUR RANKS THAT HAVE HIGH RANK IN THE MILITARY. WHY ARENT THEY IN COMMAND. THEY HAVE PROVEN THEMSELVES IN COMBAT AND ARE GREAT GUYS AND GALS BUT THE POWERS THAT BE ARE AFRAID OF THEM. THE NYPD COMMISH IS A RET COLONEL IN THE USMC RESV. GEE YOU THINK HE LEARNED SOMETHING ABOUT BEING A LEADER IN THE CORPS????- SEMPER FI

I have someone who fits this description perfectly. Commander JR unit 153 MSF. He has current leadership rank in the USMC and has served 5 or 6 tours in Iraq among other operations. This is not what makes him a true leader thou, he has common sense, he has compassion for his workers, has a sense of humor and is easly approachable. He is not a military robot. I've experienced this first hand after returning to duty to unit 153 after being stripped for 2 years. No, I am not a military veteran nor do I owe him anything or am I asking for anything. I actually believe in earning everything I achieve on this department and giving credit to someone when credit is due! I always believed that you have to respect the rank but you don't have to respect the person who holds the rank! My dealings with commander JR has earned my respect! He probably will never be promoted higher that commander because he has common sense!!! Thats a shame...

She's a COMPLETE MORON. The other night we had an incident in 011 with a prisoner in custody. Usually when similar situations arise you see the command staff running around making phone calls and talking to various parties involved. This MORON spent the evening following the Area 4 deputy around like a lost puppy. She had no fucking clue what to do and literally stood in the hallway sending text messages to God knows who. She didn't even know who to notify....Don't they teach you that shit in meritorious exempt school? And she will at no cost speak to or acknowledge a p/o. If she has a complaint about your uniform....which she will find regardless, she will tell your supervisor to inform you of your infraction so she doesn't have to get off her high horse and speak to a lowly blue shirt. And you think we're going to stand at attention for you? HAHAHAHA!!! And by the way boys and girls....make sure you get those dispersals for her!

How about a post on your own about some positives in the dept? A couple years ago there was a post about the best bosses. How about updating that one?

Let me see if I have this right...the previous commander was very well-liked by the majority of the troops who are in, dramatic pause, 011. The troops in 011 were working for this guy, because he was a good boss who took care of his troops. They dump him because there were too many homicides in, another long pause, 011. They then promote a female whom everyone on this blog said was not the sharpest pencil in the box. She demands that people stand up when she enters a room (we're not in the academy anymore), screams on the radio like a headless chicken, and then goes out into a gunfight, in 011, without a vest on, not to mention, she didn't have her star on, make that GOLD star. AND SHE IS THE COMMANDER, THE PERSON IN CHARGE OF 011. Ok, I think I have it all now. Makes perfect sense to me. Good job J-Fed...another winner.

The only bosses I know of who were ever shot or killed were off-duty occurrences.
Truth be told, I'm willing to bet if you checked the trunk of most Exempts, you wouldn't find much in there that would be duty related (ballistic protection, yellow/red tape, traffic cones of flares, etc.). This ain't news, nothing to see here.

I once worked for a lieutenant who had no clue what he was doing. SO, he micromanaged the few things he felt he COULD control.

He made us sign in and out (an undercover unit with no set hours) and highlighted our signature if it was written after 0900. Duh?

He reassigned cars. No reason. Because he could.

He dictated that all shirts must have collars (remember, undercover) and could have no logos of any kind. He once spent an hour with a little tool that pulls threads out of fabric, to take the Polo logo off his own shirt.

He was petty and he was ineffectual. He knew nothing about what we did or how to do it, so he played his anal-retentive games to show he was in charge.

I've never worked in 011, so excuse me if my comment is a little off. From what I gathered about 011, is that it is, or at least was, a district that clouted guys that actually wanted to do police work, went. 015 was a dumping ground, but 011 was not. Needless to say, after having generations of hard working cops that come from a long line of relatives that were working cops, (I'm sure there were some exceptions,) that the district gets this goof dumped on them?! I heard Starks wasn't as bad as this cretin. Really, I thought it was a joke or an exaggeration when I heard about your new Commander. Unfortunatly for you guys, I guess not. I could see that type of boss in the far south side, like the Burger Queen, but in 011? The district with the highest murder rate? It just seems to me that once you think this dept. can't sink any lower, it does. Be safe out there.

It was THE funniest/most awkward thing I've ever seen and couldn't have been played any better by stage actors performing a rehearsed comedy sketch.

I have someone who fits this description perfectly. Commander JR unit 153 MSF. He has current leadership rank in the USMC and has served 5 or 6 tours in Iraq among other operations. This is not what makes him a true leader thou, he has common sense, he has compassion for his workers, has a sense of humor and is easly approachable. He is not a military robot. I've experienced this first hand after returning to duty to unit 153 after being stripped for 2 years. No, I am not a military veteran nor do I owe him anything or am I asking for anything. I actually believe in earning everything I achieve on this department and giving credit to someone when credit is due! I always believed that you have to respect the rank but you don't have to respect the person who holds the rank! My dealings with commander JR has earned my respect! He probably will never be promoted higher that commander because he has common sense!!! Thats a shame...

I met John Langley, the producer of COPS once and asked him why his show never filmed in Chicago and he nearly passed his drink through his nose. He said that the powers that be would not allow him to film here. I asked him was it from the police command staff and he replied "higher," which I took to be da mayors office.

Another copper killed... Texas....

Pasadena police officer killed in shooting

By JASON WITMER and JAMES NIELSEN Houston Chronicle


A Pasadena police officer was killed this morning in a shootout in which the suspect also was seriously wounded.

Officer Jesse Hamilton, 29, was flown to Memorial Hermann Hospital-Texas Medical Center, where he died of a head wound.

Hamilton was responding to a disturbance call at a trailer park near the intersection of Shaver and Queens before 6:30 a.m., Assistant Police Chief Bud Corbett said.

The suspect, 24-year-old Sergio Robles, arrived at his mother's trailer home around 5 a.m. after his wife and child spent the night there following a domestic dispute elsewhere, Corbett said. The disturbance call more than an hour later indicated no guns were involved.

Corbett said Hamilton was talking to the mother on the porch when he learned Robles had a handgun, and he radioed that in around 6:25 a.m. Almost immediately after that, Robles shot the officer in the head with a semiautomatic handgun.

Another responding officer arrived moments later and fired at least one round at Robles, who also was struck in the head and is in serious condition at Memorial Hermann.

Police said Hamilton was a four-year veteran and a married father of an infant and twin daughters.

Too bad this hostage situation on Homan cant compare to the one last night on Harrison in the 011th Dist Station, a situation which sadly plays itself out nightly if you work the late side on 3rd watch and are on Z's log. I've had tax returns come back faster than Bt 1120 Sgt A.Z and in typical fashion he was draggin his feet back to check off while everyone else who has more than a rotweiller to go home to waited. A balsy midnight Sgt decided enough was enough and released the troops to go home much to the dismay of Dub-linsky who came back to find everyone had gone home late. He tried confronting the GOOD Sgt who told him where to go and how to get there, Before cowering and shriveling into more pieces than Lance Briggs' lamborghini when it hit the Edens Expressway off ramp. That was some real "change" we can believe in. A great day in the district. Punk'd.

OT: Another crooked alderthief. I'm not sure of the alderthief's name at this time, but it has made the news that a aldermen owns a building. This buiding houses his ward office. He then pay $17k rent to himself for use of the space from his newly increased office budget. He was also getting ready to raise the ward office's rent. This fool then states that he sees nothing wrong with that deal. City ethic rules states that alderthieves cannot financially benefit from their budget funds. We would be fired if we pulled some shit like this. He never disclosed that he owned a building and that he was doing business with the city by leasing that space to himself using city funds. I bet many more of these thieving bastards are pulling shit like this. Then theyn all say the same shit when they get caught "WELL I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT." Don't these thieves take the same ethics test every City employee have to take each year.

You need to lighten up on the new Cmdr of 011. She might have been coming from a mtg in which her vest wasn't needed. I'm willing to bet a lot of bosses (tact Lts.

up! Was J-Fed there? What about the Old Man Cmdr of MSF? What were THEY doing? MSF has been patrolling 011, 015, 025 and 007 since the beginning of the year.
What difference have they made?
What accountability will their Cmdr face, Mr. "Intel Officer" in Iraq? If you're going to call Penny out on all the shit that exists in 011, considering the low level of troops that exist in all of the Districts, then let's hold these Unit Cmdrs up in the same light, and that includes LEO and Gorman too!

Not Penelope "Penny" Jones Trahanas.

After the rumor began about her requiring the troops to jump to attention when she entered the room, Penny assured me this was balderdash.

She agreed that when you have the honor and privelege of leading da REAL muthafuckin' PO-lice in FILLMO', you avoid nitpicking the troops about chickenshit "violations".

I stressed the importance of having leadership role models like the late George Sims and retired Captains John Patrick Collins and John Farrell.

I'm confident that Penny will be a credit to the Fillmo' tradition (I think). Hell, just for openers, emulate Eric Washington and James Jackson. You go, girl.

Always wear your kevlar vest and carry at least two guns, if not a third belly gun. You're in the big leagues now, kid.

During a year of painful rehab he's starting to wonder: could it actually be possible that he got smashed because the predator didn't like his white face??? Then he thinks maybe he got chumped because the predator backed out of a deal to sit down for an interview (another inspired idea).

While I agree with the first part of your post, I have personally known 11 police officers over the last 18 years who have "nibbled" on their gun. You obviously don't know any. Even if a guy is a total asshole, and some of them were, they still left behind families who grieve them and will never be over the pain of loss. The person who commits suicide gets to die once, the survivors die a little each day, over and over. Keep that in mind next time you advocate something like that, "brother"!!!

We can discern several things from this post.

If you think JR from MSF is not a stellar CPD leader, you must be a dog ass do-nothing POS who doesn't have a clue.

You know nothing about the real police, so you probably are a house mouse from 35th St, and probably work for one of those CPD legends, (J-Fraud, Masters, Ray-Ray, Brust).

"The 011 District Commander was driven directly into the 'hot zone' in front of the building and dropped off. Her driver left with her car and returned 15 minutes later with her bulletproof vest and star that she had left back at the station."

"Dropped off?" For what -- an aerobics class?

Thank God she had her Blackberry so she could Twitter frantically from underneath a car until someone noticed her predicament.

Hey SCC,

Really hate to do the 'Off Topic" thing but can you address, or can someone from our useless F.O.P. address, how on earth F.O.P. members took themselves and unknown amount of family members to Disneyland for some "conference?"

Fucking ridiculous! We're in the middle of one of the most protracted and acrimonious contract negaotiations in years and these fuckers go to Disneyland on our dime!

Who "investigates" these clowns and all their bullshit? Someone let me know. I'll make the phone call.

These motherfuckers are no better than all the ones that get talked about hiding in units answering phone calls and checking I.D.s. Most of these humps have never done shit on this job. Think about it. The average working copper wouldn't think about doing this F.O.P. shit. Fucking do-nothing P.O.s making Captains pay ordering fucking pizzas at police shootings.

I can't wait until the likes of Dougherty and his "pizza ordering" mutants come around asking for votes in the next election.

Dude,

you are the problem with CPD today. You are a punk who does nothing but bitch, and spew nonsense about topics which you no nothing about.You sound like a bitter dog-ass!

Have you every been to an FOP meeting? Have you even voted in an election, or to ratify a contract?

Probably NO to both questions!

The reason they were in Long beach, California was to attend the National FOP Biennial conference. This is where all the business of our National FOP lodge is conducted. The delegates elect the national office holders, pick trustees,they conduct training seminars and strategize and plan policy initiatives to shape the future direction of OUR organization. And yes, a few days are set aside to socialize with our fraternal brothers and sisters.

Why don't you get involved? Rather than bitching like a little girl!

For your information, the delegates are assisted with some expenses, but many (non-delegate)FOP members attend with their families at their own expense because they are proud of their organization.

You act as if this was some kind of secret conspiracy where FOP funds were used for family vacations. This just shows what an uninformed GOOF you are. This Long Beach conference has been advertised and publisized for 2 years & all members are welcome to attend. BUT, you don't read your National FOP newsletter or take an interest in their website. Because it's easier to be a "Debbie downer" than to get involved!

Rant done! Did I address it to your satisfaction..Dick? Now you can follow your own advice and Fuck off! Now go back to viewing porn in your momma's basement loser!

While this seems to be typical of a "supervisor" in today's department, I must say that I am tired of reading demoralizing posts on this blog. I understand that this is the department/world we live in. Cops love to bitch too. Some feel good stories are thrown in once and a while when someone does a good job. How about a post on your own about some positives in the dept? A couple years ago there was a post about the best bosses. How about updating that one? Just saying that we have enough shit to deal with, a little positive would be good for the soul.

8/21/2009 01:10:00 AM

I AGREE! Here are some positives: 1. We make good money (though you can get your ass kicked or worse, get killed. 2. We have awesome benefits. 3. No matter what, this is still the greatest job in the world!!!

While I agree with the first part of your post, I have personally known 11 police officers over the last 18 years who have "nibbled" on their gun. You obviously don't know any. Even if a guy is a total asshole, and some of them were, they still left behind families who grieve them and will never be over the pain of loss. The person who commits suicide gets to die once, the survivors die a little each day, over and over. Keep that in mind next time you advocate something like that, "brother"!!!

8/21/2009 09:53:00 PM

Yes "Brother" Mr. bleeding heart, in my nearly 20 years on this job I do know many cops who have killed themselves along with family and friends who have also killed themselves. It was sarcasm and a point that if someone compliments a good job that we cops do, accept the compliment instead of finding every negative excuse possible to hate everybody. Not everybody is out to get us.

Why did they dump the AWESOME commander of 011 for this dipstick? According to these posts it was due to the increase numbers of homicides.. sounds like bullshit to me.. How about dumping MSF back to the districts. Obviously they haven't reduce crime or made a difference in 007, 011, 015 or anywhere else. Stop stripping the police resources from the taxpaying citizens and sending them to places that only gentrification can change.

Hey northy, you gotta be kidding, right? JJ was dumped by Cliner, not by rank, only by status, from commander of an area to commander of a district. JJ learned to shut up and not do anything, but let the 11 district officers run itself, as always, without supervision. JJ is now on the come back because of Jfed and the mayoral reverends. JJ is pumping his chest and doing his come back by pushing his useless folks through, like Walter Greenbaum, Ernie Brownstone, Penny Trytogetonebyme. Always remember who started using the term "folks" - Terry H. Same man who promoted the names above. Thanks to Chicago tradition, cliner knew those "folks" were useless, but he played the game and kept their salaries high and sometimes higher. Personal payoff. Funny that Cliner never used that term "folks", go figure. Did you ever notice that Jfed has said "folks" on tv quite often? Go figure.

You need to lighten up on the new Cmdr of 011. She might have been coming from a mtg in which her vest wasn't needed. I'm willing to bet a lot of bosses (tact Lts.

up! Was J-Fed there? What about the Old Man Cmdr of MSF? What were THEY doing? MSF has been patrolling 011, 015, 025 and 007 since the beginning of the year.
What difference have they made?
What accountability will their Cmdr face, Mr. "Intel Officer" in Iraq? If you're going to call Penny out on all the shit that exists in 011, considering the low level of troops that exist in all of the Districts, then let's hold these Unit Cmdrs up in the same light, and that includes LEO and Gorman too!

After 30yrs on the job I no longer reside in the City. (Thank G-d). However for all of you that think by not doing your job because you don't like the bosses is a good thing, think again. For those of you that remember when you never saw a boss because they were to drunk to show up for roll call but you still went out to do your job. There was a time when you came on the job because you really wanted to be the Police. Alot of us even took a cut in pay comming from the private sector. We wanted to be the Police. There was no union and we still went out and did our job. Througout history on the department there has always been usless bosses but the troops worked around them. Part of the problem is that all you college educated p.o.'s just took this job because you couln't get a real job in the private sector. I guess the private sector can only hire so many with a soc sci degree. Yes alot of us that were college graduates still wanted the job because we thought we could make a difference and I'm sure some still do. What amazes me however tht you think by not working it's going to get rid of bosses you don't like. Think again. Bosses come and go but what you have done or not done will stay with you forever. If you decide you don't want to work that will follow you the rest of your career, you will become the dog that no one want's to work with. Most senior officer's will tell you there was a time that everyone responded to an in progress or a 10-1 even if you hated the car that was calling and when it was over you would go back to hating the officer's involved. However towards the end of my career you new officer's became so petty over your dislike of your fellow officer's that it is a shame. I was in city wide for the better part of 22yrs and there were times I would be a few blocks away in whatever district and would see district officer's drive in the opposite direction of the trouble. I would take the call in and wonder what the hell happened to this job. We used to be one for all in blue. The bosses were alway's the people with clout and it always will be. Get used to it. I just pray that you start doing your job with integrity. If you find one lost child or stop one spouse from being brutilized that should make your day. For your own sake do your job the way it should be done and the hell with the shit boss you may have. That shit boss may be gone tomorrow but you wont. The next boss might be great and they will think you are dead weight because you did jack shit for the last boss. You have to live in the city so for everything you do hopefully it makes a difference where you live. The scumbag's are'nt leaving and you can't. If you took this job for the money and the benifits only I feel sorry for you or maybe you watched too many Dirty Harry movies growing up. The real world suck's so you better get used to it. I think I've said enough on this subject and stay safe out there.

LET ME SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT! I was the one who made the comment(8/21/2009 12:36:00 AM) about Commander JR being a great boss. I usually always sign my name to my post whenever I make a post on this blog. I don't believe in hiding behind the keyboard like most of the cowards who post on this blog. The reason I didn't post my name this time is because I didn't want to come off as a kiss ass and I didn't want Commander JR think I was asking for something, because I am not! I don't need help, I am waiting to be promoted to detective based off my score on the test. I think I made it clear I work for everything I achieve on this job. That even includes working in SOS. I spent 3 years in the DNP(distressed neighborhood program) before it was merged with SOS. I think I made it very obvious who posted the comment without leaving my name, but the stellar Detectives who post on this blog claimed it was John Curry. I don't think John Curry was stripped within the last 2 years. I was also referred to as being a Kid, I am working on my 15th year as a police officer with CPD, so I don't think I fit the kid discription either. Some said that I must have a hole in my head for working for JR, I don't think I do, I was assigned to SWAT when I was wrongfully stripped 2 years ago and when I was reinstated I was suprisingly returned to SWAT. I was merely stating the facts. You would think that when I was reinstated that the supervisors would bend over backwards to right the wrong this department did to me, but believe it or not I have already run into a few Seargeants and Lieutenants who could care less about what happened to me, they have their own agendas. I would only hope that they never have to go through what I did for 2 years because they would never make it! How do you think it feels being told I was gonna be fired and federally indicted for a incident I wasn't even at. Try finding a side job to help pay for the Catholic tuition without a badge and gun for 2 years and overtime was unheard of while stripped. I know my time in SWAT is coming to a end but I am ok with that, I have learned that everything in life happens for a reason! Like I said, I was only stating the facts and my dealing with Commander JR. I will say it again, he has earned my respect! The only thing I would ask is if you are gonna reply with a negative post please have the balls to sign your name to it!! signed Greg Insley unit 153 SWAT

You don t know what the &*() you are talking about. All 3 times he was an Intel Officer w/ a Infantry Bn. No where near the green zone. And He has more time on missions than you so STFU

If this wasn't so sad I'd be laughing till my tears went dry. I still can't believe that they EVER promoted this moron.

Nancy Lipman, Give me a break, all she did in 021 is wait for her lawsuit to go thru. Not a bad person but in way over her head, send her to 011. Rick Elmer is a Prince.

To the person trash talking Comm. JR. You are so wrong. I'm not going to waste a lot of time on you or bother sharing my story. I will say this. I don't care who put him there the man cares about his people and will bend over backwards for you. He greets everyone and if you need something just ask and he will do his best to get it done for you. I know you dont get this everywhere. In addition he has never once cried or said anything negative about not being promoted. He started his next day at work business as usual. Kudos to GI. He is right on the mark. GI your almost there. Hang tough and screw those other supervisors. They have already done a lot of damage and have pushed away some of the good bosses (WW) for example. DET. cant come soon enough and it will.

'The only thing I would ask is if you are gonna reply with a negative post please have the balls to sign your name to it!! signed Greg Insley unit 153 SWAT'

Greg, your "woe is me" post has gotten old, and is well overdone.
Everyone by now knows what happened to you...and it's happened to other people too.
You're not "the only one" to have been fucked by the Dept., and while it is indeed shameful, others who have gone that route have gotten over it, so you should too. Maybe you should see a counselor about it, and it's nice to see you signed your name here, but please (and I speak for many others here), "GET OVER IT!"
COZZI comes to mind here....

"Not Worthy Of Being A Patrol Officer" Nancy Lipman is a fucking one-way piece of shit.

She once fucked over a wonderful boss so she would not have to take a very justified one day suspension. She did not have the common sense to leave shit alone and take her discipline like an individual with a backbone, but her then partner had the common sense not to put the boss in the middle. Lipman did not care as long as she saved herself. And to her partner VM, you are the one that should be the Captain, not N. Lipman.

Nancy, I will NEVER call you captain or boss or sir or anything other than piece of shit. There are some of us that will never forget how you middled that great man, and you will forever be a piece of shit.

Honestly, many despise you for how you fucked that man over and, because of you, how he was essentially forced to end a great career. He was a hero and you were not worthy to shine his shoes, yet, because of you, he got screwed.

Fuck you Nancy Lipman, you arrogant, conceited prick. What goes around comes around, and yours cannot come soon enough.

After the rumor began about her requiring the troops to jump to attention when she entered the room, Penny assured me this was balderdash.
___________________________________Northern, you really are pushing buttons.. Mind your own business already. First you trash to no end the Supt, now you HAD a conversation with Penny, the C-O of 011.

You were never liked and always were a loose goose. Now you think you are a legend. Many of us got you out of so much crap is was and got old.
