First Homicide?
- A 61-year old woman was found dead in her South Side home Saturday afternoon, the apparent victim of a home invasion, police said.
The incident happened in the 11000 block of South Lowe Avenue in the Roseland neighborhood. According to police, the door to the residence was kicked in and a number of items were taken, including the victim's 1998 Jeep Wrangler which was later recovered.
Police said the victim had signs of blunt trauma.
Or do you count the one that has been dead a few days?
- An unidentified body, apparently of a male, was found in the trunk of a car in the Englewood neighborhood this afternoon, officials said.
The body of a decomposed person was found in the trunk of a car on the 5700 block of South Loomis Avenue, according to a spokesman with the Cook County medical examiner's office.
[...] police are awaiting the results of an autopsy scheduled for Sunday.
Questions questions.

J-Fed has a horseshoe up his ass. Dec 2008 was in the top ten for snowiest and coldest. Now, the same thing in 2009, temps and snow right behind 2008. Now this year us starting off like last year, cold, not as much snow yet, but cold. Last winter was one of the coldest and snowiest on history. Let's see if his luck holds. Oh yeah, weather has nothing to do with it, it is all J-Feds strategy that is bringing crime down
old lady

FIRST RD # GETS IT
go blackhawks---- the hawks dismantled the st louis blues last night 6-3 in a fight filled hockey game---- tkachuk took a slapshot right in the face in the third period which somehow then rolled thru huet for the blues 3rd goal--- hawks vs the ducks at the uc tonite at 1800 hrs on wgn.... it has been so much fun to watch the hawks lately--- hossa has fit in nicely and john madden really has turned into a quality acquisition for the hawks---
OT- Happy New Year everyone, time to pay are fearlous leaders' salaries. Water bills are due on the 4th of January. Read the fine print. Rates in 2010 go up 14%! Go get um boys!
I heard that she was a f/2 why did her family let her live there. I would not even let my dog live there.
PO's in 005 (midnight officers)caught 2 offenders with this Homocide. GOOD WORK GUYS!
Come on 09 or 07!!!
RD numbers or time of occurrence do not count regarding 1st homicide. The only thing that matters is time of death...when was the body officially pronounced dead? First body, pronounced after 0000hrs Sat morning, and that will be classified as a homicide, gets the prize.
So, looking at the two deaths listed by SCC, all one would need to do is look at the time the bodies were pronounced. It doesn't matter if the one in the trunk was a skeleton. If it was pronounced after the old lady, then the old lady is the 1st homicide and Junebug is number 2. If Junebug in the trunk was pronounced first, then Junebug gets to be number 1. Very simple. Takes all the guesswork out of the equation. Sometimes you may have to wait for a definitive answer, such as if Junebug in the trunk is classified as a death investigation pending the autopsy. After a week or so, all that should be resolved. Then it just comes down to time of death.

The one in englewood will be classified as a suicide.
Bad guys can do what they want here in Chicago. Case in point was today (Sunday 03-JAN-10 at @1100) a 1st District car called in a car chase and said they were doing 35 mph (thats right just 35 mph) and car would not pull over and had 2 occupants. What do think 1-99 (watch commander) says on the radio - what else - TERMINATE CHASE - it's only 35 mph and he terminates chase. After the temp plate is run, it was learned that car was taken in an armed robbery. So then a traffic car spots car at 18th and LSD with now just 1 occupant. Way to go 1-99 no balls, terminate a 35 mph chase on Sunday with no traffic or pedestrians in area !!!!
Time to give props to the Sup for the crime reduction. You plums my want to blame the weather, medical care, or who knows what else (you ponies have a lot of excuses)but the real reason we are seeing a drop in crime is due to the new stratgies implemented by the boss.
Have a good new year all and be safe!
MEDIA WAKE UP!!! CHI 3 times the rate of New York???!!!!

Leo "Woooooh" Schmitz vs. Down Town Ernie Brown!
Rumor has it that the South Side Reverends got wind of the Leo article being put out to publicize him and his Gang Enforcement Squad but the REV's pulled some strings to get EB's article out first (noticeably before the end of the year) so that he can take most of the credit for the "alleged" homicide and overall crime reduction. This was "allegedly" all done without JFED's, PETERSON'S and DA MAYOR'S consent but it doesn't matter. Everyone knows that EB will not be touched because of the repercussions. Like when JFED demoted him back down to a LT. and the REVS stormed into City Hall and threatened to drop their endorsement and support ($) for Shortshanks they immediately promoted him back up to a CHIEF!
Anyhow it should be fun, have at it EB and LS!
Police: focus on fighting gangs cut murders in '09
CRIME | 2009 saw 459 killings, compared with 511 in 2008
January 2, 2010
BY FRANK MAIN Staff Reporter:
Chicago Police took their fight against gangs to a new level in 2009 -- one of the reasons murder and other crimes were down almost across the board in the city last year, officials say.
About 400 gang officers were pulled out of the city's 25 districts and placed under Cmdr. Leo Schmitz in the citywide gang enforcement section. Police Supt. Jody Weis announced the shift in late 2008 as he was coming under criticism for a spike in crime in the city.
The reorganization, championed by Deputy Supt. Steve Peterson, aimed to create a "leaner, more agile operation" to combat gangs deemed responsible for at least half of Chicago's killings, Weis said at the time.

If skeletal remains are discovered or pronounced moments after the beginning of the new year, that's a pimpy win.
We should use the 3 day rule. You have to hide the head for 3 days blah, blah, blah, so nothing older than 3 days dead can be a winner, hence, skeletal remains would be disqualified. Also, a delayed death, from an incident older than 72 hours from the beginning of the new year, would also be ineligible.
To qualify, the cause and effect should be required to have both occurred after midnite. Time of occurrence should reign, not time pronounced.
Don't forget this one from Jan 01, 2010:
South Side gunshot victim dies
A 28-year-old South Side man has died after being shot, officials said.
David Davis, of the 6100 block of South Ingleside Avenue, was pronounced dead at 11:05 p.m. Friday at University of Chicago Hospitals, according to a spokeswoman for the Cook County medical examiner's office.
She did not have information available about when or where Davis was shot. Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Ron Gaines also said there was no information immediately available about the shooting.

WE are plums and ponies? YOU are stoned or delusional.
Or both.
Off Topic, but for all u Lillie Crump-Hales "supporters" there is a "huge" retirement celebration scheduled on her behalf entitled, "Legacy of a Leader" this week! Its so special only one poster is posted in 003, hidden among the daily schedules, by the radio room.
Have fun all!!!!!!!!
Does Daley have subcontractors installing the new water meters so when they get caught taking kickbacks he doesn't have to go through a whole dog-and-pony show to hire them back?
"leaner more agile...." I hope more than a few of you are "Jenny Craiging" for a New Years resolution now that he opened his big mouth with THAT line!
ponies? plums? These are not Chicago terms. Care to claim the name, oh foreign friend of the fedster?
The "sup" already has a prop. Doesn't he like that frisky Hibernian midget we gave him as a sidekick to play straight man to. Ungrateful bastard.
Bad guys can do what they want in Chicago tommorrow. I'm taking the day off.
Who got the first C.R. of 2010?????
:)
022 WINS land of the DOGS!!!!!!
channel 7 said the guy on 57th and Loomis was shot in the head....
"I heard that she was a f/2 why did her family let her live there. I would not even let my dog live there."
Then you also heard she wanted to move to Mt. Greenwood but her family said it was too dangerous.
Homicides are not the only factor to a dangerous city. How many shootouts did CPD have in 09 compared to other Cities?
PO's in 005 (midnight officers)caught 2 offenders with this Homocide. GOOD WORK GUYS!
Where they catch him at-the Walgreens on 115th Halsted ?

I'm actually surprised it took this long but I guess the weather has been keeping them in the house lately.
Then you also heard she wanted to move to Mt. Greenwood but her family said it was too dangerous.
Been to Mt Greenwood lately? It's going to shit quick it will be the next Marquette Park.
