Hear the one about foot patrols on the south and west sides by Tact, Strike Force and TRU. Starts next month, supposedly Jody's idea. Wish they could put a couple coppers on my block, but then again I pay taxes.
pheewww, i got worried there...
Okay. An open post. Can anyone explain why there are a little over 600 officers that were placed in the behaviorial program and subjected to a complete physical. ( Blood / Urine samples taken per direct order ) Now, it was determined that this " Program " was a big mistake. There was an apology letter issued to the officers. Second City Cop had a post earlier on the CR numbers this week with a person submitting in the comment section of the actual letter pages that were sent out. It was a Settlement Agreement Letter that the FOP was requesting the involved officers to sign. Most of the officers did not sign this letter. That meant the officers did not agree with this letter at all claiming a great injustice had been done to the involved officers. Why isn't the FOP doing anything for the members to help these officers out? The involved officers do not agree with the contents of the letter. Syd Davis was in charge of being the representative from the FOP to help the involved officers. The officers claims of restitution are falling on FOP deaf ears. Many of the involved officers are really frustrated with the FOP. What kind of union turns their back on their own? There must be somebody out there that can help with this case. Any police officers privy to contractual rights. There is a private attorney that stated there was indeed a violation of civil rights of the officers. The question is how much in dollars was this violation? Officers have brought up slander of their reputations, pain and suffering, depression, stress related issues with family and friends, and loss of a promotion. If it can be proved, the loss of promotion would be the most damaging in the eyes of a jury. Another attorney stated sue the FOP as well as the City. While another attorney stated all the officers have to come together in order for something monetary to happen. Phone calls via networking have begun again amongst the involved officers. Please. Can someone with some smarts on this matter help. There was an officer that even stated something about arresting one of the FOP members on the basis of theft. Sometimes anger and frustration can make good people turn crazy. We need leadership now and that is not coming from the FOP. We are surprised that the FOP Newsletter does not have anything to add to this situation. Greg Bella seems to have some smarts and is well liked by the membership. Any input?
Ohhhhh, did somebody's widdle car come back fwom valet parking all dented and dinged, bunkie?
So, instead of handling it like all the rest of the ADULTS do, this idiot introduces yet ANOTHER new law that will ultimately result in additional costs for parking. Like it's not stupid-expensive to park in this town, as it is?
That's right; drive out what little business we still have left here, you shortsighted, self-centered fool.
It's the weekend before St Patrick's Day...all of the amateurs will be out in full force, starting early. Be careful out there, boys and girls...

Apparently the females are the most discriminated against regarding promotions to exempt ranks. Maybe they should start soliciting all the female reverends and alderman, complaining to the media and marching around demanding equality as well...or we could all just STFU and worry about what truly matters: Promoting those that have a good work ethic, proven results and most importantly those that know how to treat, take care of and have the backs of their patrol officers...regardless of their sex or race. Amen.
I'm so glad our union is working tirelessly to solve our contract problems. By the time this BS is resolved it'll be time to start on the next contract.
Now that may bode well for us-in the long run-but as for all that union dues...for what? The city isn't going to budge and the mediator could give two shits. They are all getting paid: to include our union buddies.
Crime numbers are consistantly decreasing in most, if not all, categories and we are still begging, fucking begging for what is right. Does this make sense?
In any business with numbers like this the bonus' would flow like water. We are doing our end of the bargain and the city is sucking us dry, depleating manpower, ignoring safety issues, denying OT, holding back pay for OT and basically taking a giant dump on us and we smile and ask for more. More abuse that is, not the money that is rightfully ours. We've earned it! Sad.
AUNT BEA is at it again.
She related that she knows Daley will not be extending J-Fed's contract after he embarrassed the Mayor with the Lopez fiasco last week.
Aunt Bea said her way to the "Top Spot" is through Masters, adding she knows how to "use him". Aunt Bea said she only wants the position for one or two years then retire, relating that she needs to fix what Weis and Masters fucked up, "right the wrongs!"

Did anyone notice that at the press conference where J-Fed announced the Lopez "lateral" and 4 other Hispanic promotions, AS Cuello was nowhere near J-Fed on the stage? She was in fact on the far end next to Lopez showing her support for him.
How did J-Fed let that one happen? He should have insisted his top Brass show a united front. She has no respect for this job and only does things that will help her personal agenda. Anything to get her promoted to Superintendent!
I hope J-fed, Masters and the Mayor can see right through this goof!!!
Eddie May for Superintendent!!!

Enough already with your posts. I can't remember one nitwit in Behavioral that didn't belong there. The only apology the City should have issued was to the rest of the P.O.s that you work with because they failed to get rid of you.
Get jammed up doing Police work, you get sympathy. Be the goof on the Watch that no one wants to work with and you get none.

It will take more than a few years. That's all any of the sworn police bosses are talking about. How long it will take to fix the Department after the Fed and civilian bosses go.
Great job by area one with the Hogan H.S. Rapist. Help from the community, a composite that actually looks like the offender and great work by detectives SR and CM. All involved should be commended.
Greg Bella seems to have some smarts and is well liked by the membership. Any input?
Yea I have input. Greg Bella is a nice guy and will do just as Nolan and Donahue is doing/done.
If he gets in he will be bought and paid for just like all the rest.
And yet we do nothing about it. If you file a grievance it takes years to settle or the comittee just says naahh you got nothing. I am so glad I never had to deal with FOP or any city bullshit. I just drive wave and do my 1st and 16th thing.
Hey SCC,
get your ears to the ground in the 011th District. Seems Henny Penny was named as an offender in a case report on Thursday night. Get going on this and give us the scoop.
Since you're late with the posting, SCC, I won't feel so guilty that I haven't stopped in the last few days. I may not always say much, but I do like to come here and read. You are definitely one of my very favorite bloggers.
Thanks so much for all that you P/O's do. Y'all don't get nearly any of the recognition and respect that is deserved for what you do.
It pisses me off to no end that professional sports players make MILLIONS of dollars for what they do. I'm not knocking any sport, because I'm a huge sports fan, but I've always felt that P/O's, FF's, EMS, Military, teachers and nurses should be making mega millions. Y'all see the worst that society has to offer, and so many people seem to forget that and/or take it for granted.
Just know I'll always support all of you and I appreciate the job you do, especially since so many others criticize and paint every one of you with a broad brush if one cop does wrong, but these are the same people who are too chicken shit to walk in your shoes. And of course, no matter how much they may despise you, they don't hesitate to call for help and I know y'all will be there to answer the calls.
Thank you so much for all that you do. I appreciate you more than you know.
Please be safe out there.

1.8 mil for a web site ?!?!?
How many Tahoes would that $$$ buy ? How many PDT ??? WTF Shorty!
So when O'Keefe lived on Cornelia his house was taxed at $3000 yr..for a slab basement and unfinished attic....When my relatives lived there it had a finished basement and an inlaw apt on top....When did he fill in the basement and tear out the apt???
Can anybody tell me something nice about this new Lt Oz of Vice, so far I haven't heard anything good about this guy. Every place he has been is bad news, people just hates this guy. A double merit micro manager who is dumb as a rock. Time to bail and go back to the district, safer. Please enlighten me on this guy.
What we need is a bloody summer in Chicago. The perfect storm will be upon us very soon. We are at an all time low for manpower and there have been no promotions in the past two years. The morale is poor at best. The gangs are getting bigger and we lack the resources to address the problems out there. We have a Superintendent that is pissing in the wind and probably counting his days before he is finished.
The Mayor is more concerned with his re-election bid since he only has about a 25% approval rating. Any Police or Fire employee who votes for him is insane.
I am looking forward to new leadership and possibly a return to better days ahead for all City employees.
It aint a crime until its overtime
ever look at the reverse prostitution sting arrest photos?? you'd figure that alot of he/shes would be from 023 but they are not 99.9% of them are from 75th thru 77th on SOUTH Halsted
demote all exempts with any merit promotions and % will be over 90%
white male and female
can't pass a test or why study the
mayor needs minority commanders
how's that grab ya
Somebody rumored..."She related that she knows Daley will not be extending J-Fed's contract after he embarrassed the Mayor with the Lopez fiasco last week."
Not renewing this P.O.S.'s contract will be a Huge step in the right direction. But look at the documentation that J-Jag is doing. Every fifteen minutes he has a news conference telling everyone how good he is. LOOK for him to SUE the city for wrongful termination if he does not get a contract extension. He sues or fires everybody when he doesn't get his way and everybody sues him back. He has cost the city a million dollars already with his court battles.
...and as I said, who the fuck would hire this guy anywhere else after the constant fiascos that he has had here. He's the Asian Carp of law enforcement!!!
I'd take Aunt Bea over masters and banjo boy in heart beat. I wouldn't like it but ANYTHING would be better than those two nitwits.
No Southside Irish Parade... Hooray!!!! Don't have to worry about the drunk, stinky people urinating in my yard.
Dep Cuello is the only person that called me and checked on me while I was going thru a screwed up beef that IAD try to stick up my tail.
ANd I never worked for her directly, she just saw and knew I was a worker!
Did more than no balls bosses that I directly worked for!
the fop and the city are in cahoots to whoever is posting on the behaviorial program. you have to spend some money on a private attorney to get results. we know plenty of cops put on the program as they call it that feel the same way. there is hardly any solidarity now because the morale of the department is broken. we hear swat is on standby for anybody getting any ideas about going off in the fop building.
Good news for the " behaviorial program " officers. A family lawyer friend reviewed the copy of the Settlement letter and said without question that the letter is the key to the whole bunch of bananas. If the officers swear they did not sign it and have copies of their letters the grievance is still active and has to be dealt with by the involved officers as ALL PARTIES DID NOT AGREE. The family friend lawyer can't believe the FOP are so blatant in their stupidity for trying to swindle the officers out of any kind of settlement. Also the family friend attorney is police friendly and just might make this a pro bono piece of work. Stay strong and stay tuned.
better late than never.
Fucking HUET SUCKS!!!!!! Bench that fucker already.
Open posting...there was a trial last week in federal court regarding civil rights violations on a 14th District search warrant. The trial was on damages only. Plaintiff was awarded the grand total of one dollar. Her attorney will not now get fees. If he was on a contingency basis he gets forty cents now. Earlier in the week a jury came back with a finding of not liable for the police officers. Just thought you should know that.

How could Aunt B fix things? She's part of the problem. What ever happened to her drug-busted condo fiasco?? Besides being swept under the rug by Jody, anything come out of it with IAD or did they cooperate by supplying the broom and rug?

Hey, Mass Transit, Public Transportation Section, 701 or what ever you are calling yourselves these days. Its time to stop griping about not getting the 4-2 schedule the 1st time around and concentrate on next time!!!!! All three watches should get together with reps and have them voice your concerns with the powers that be. Forget Tact and Canine and Front Office Desk Persons. They work there schedules and you get your 4-2's. It is done all the time. Unity is the key! Good luck!
Can anyone tell me why the commander of 017 is at home on a Saturday morning listening to the radio at 0630 hrs. and checking the GPS on his blackberry. Get a life the department will go survive without you.
This Foot Patrol idea came from Philly, Ramsey is the chief out there and is a friend of J-Fed, J-Fed thinks Ramsey walks on water and it seems to be doing OK in Philly so here it comes Chicago, These dumb Fucks that call themselves
Bosses can't figure out crap. Crime Stats are down here, some numbers messing around going on .Daley is setting us up for the kill, He is going to get manpower down to about 8,000 or if we get a good raise, watch this little fucker to lay off 300- 400 coppers, Sgts. included, HE knows that there is nobody that will run against him and this little man is a sure winner, He will get some lowly minorities to run against him and then when he wins he will be cockier than ever, have beer muscles and raise the fuck out of taxes. Tuck your heads into between your legs and enjoy the trip boys and girls.

Good news for the " behaviorial program " officers
I hope you're serious about this and if you are see if SCC would help us use the blog to better organize and stay updated.
SCC - may be separate post. Prayers for officer and family.
An Edmonton police officer responding to a "shots fired" call at a car dealership discovered on arrival that one of the two dead men at the scene was her husband.
Both worked at Great West Chrysler as did a third critically wounded man. The shooter apparently shot the two coworkers before he turned the gun on himself.
Bart Yachimec, the dealership's owner, said his wounded employee has undergone two operations since the shooting. Colleagues are praying that he will pull through.
“Our prayers go out to the families. We still have one in the hospital that I'm going down to check on. We hope that he makes it, we pray that he makes it. That is the key now,” Mr. Yachimec said Saturday.
“They operated on him and he came out. They had to take him back in for a second operation.”
A police officer who rushed to respond to the fatal shooting discovered that one of the dead men was her husband. Police say the other dead man was the shooter. No names have been officially released.
Great West employees identified the shooter as Dave Burns, whom they say was recently taken off the job for making racially-charged comments.
Note: While prayers are most in order for the officer's husband and the other innocent wounded, it should be noted that this happened in heavily gun-controlled Canada. And, BTW, Edmonton is about the same size as Austin, Texas. Austin has fewer homicides.
SCC--additional info
Garth Radons, Great West's parts manager, was married to an Edmonton police officer.
“Can you imagine it,” a police source said. “Those two leave for work in the morning, and which one of them do you think would be at risk of getting shot — the parts guy or the cop?”
Tributes to Radons poured in online Saturday.
“You truly were an amazing man. One of the greatest fathers I have ever seen, and a darn good baseball player too!” wrote a poster named Karchiri Clack on a Facebook memorial page. “I know you will be looking down from above taking care of your wife and daughter. Alex is one amazing little girl ... Angie, I can’t even imagine what you are going through right now.”

To the behavior guys.....look at your letter.......get in touch with M. He can help you with info.
Saturday night Special K aka Deputy Chief, car 47 out messing with clubs and bars. This guy is to much. He can go with Daley next election.
It amazes me that the public is not up in arms over their Police working without a contract for almost 3 years. When the suburban teacher's contract runs out for a week, it is news for days in the paper and on TV. Families are out picketing for the teachers. Soldiers return from 10 months in Iraq (God bless them all)and are admired and adorned (rightfully so) yet be a soldier for this city for 20 plus years and a large number of citizens hate us and the rest of the population barely knows we exist. The Soldiers of the City (CPD) keep anarchy at bay. How does this go un-noticed? Where is the clamor from the citizens? We are waging a war right here in our back yards against animals that are as deadly as any terrorist. Does the public not realize the murder rate in this city compressed into a handful of districts? With more support from our citizens and a union president who would at least occasionally call a press conference on at hand issues, we would prevail. I realize that because of an arbitrator he can’t address the press but where was he before almost 3 yrs ago. Where is our union president when the press filets the Police after a shooting with “Alleged this” and “IPRA that.” The things that kept me going in the past: Pride, Respect, Camaraderie, Safe home/ neighborhood are falling away so fast leaving nothing but just a job and not a passionate career. God Bless the Police, America and our Troops. Stay safe.

This is a CIVIL SERVICE JOB!
The only fair equation in determining Chicago Police Officer promotions is the following:
Take a promotional test that is administered and scored by an independent service. The ranking order should simply reflect the percentage of correct answers, seniority and age. In addition, there should not be any study groups that are conducted by Chicago Police sgt.,lieut., commanders, exempts ect... unless the study group is offered to all test takers.
Evaluation are subjective and should never be used. Education should not be used other than the educational level required at the time of hire.
The TEST SCORE is simply the fairest method in determining promotion. Throw away all the reasons why someone should be promoted over another other than a better TEST SCORE.
Please take away all the adjectives that have been used to describe our bosses. All I care about is their TEST SCORE.
Finally a message to any officer that was promoted meritoriously, you are simply undeserving and are not respected. You can lie and show your stripes, bars ect... to your kiddies but deep down you will always know that you're a big fat fake.
Also let's rid ourselves of the phrase meritoriously promoted . It should be more appropriately called the politically anointed.

Jesus man, I know we don't like most clout boys and girls but haven't you had your fill of working with people who are good test takers but have no fucking common sense?
I am a "test taker" and I've seen my share of guys and gals with a lot of "book learning" and no "street smarts."
I also know that the greatest street warriors aren't always the best supervisors (although it certainly helps to know and understand the job). The craziest part of law enforcement in this country is that the only way we seem to be able to reward someone for a job well done is to remove him/her from that job and promote them to a job in which they may be utterly incompetent!
I'm not saying that all tests are wrong but they are only one tool to evaluate. As things become more complex in law enforcement, we need to get away from "one size fits all" management and hiring.
Trying to teach a good street cop to become a computer geek or accountant and investigate kiddie por or computer or financial crimes is usually a joke. It may be easier to teach the computer geek some law enforcement skills that he or she may never use.
It's also unfair to paint all clout boys and girl with the same brush. Yes, there are boobs and hacks who don't have your back but, frankly, I'd rather see a mediocre street cop being promoted to a records supervisor where he or she may actually do a decent job than to keep them on the road where they can really fuck things up.
And every so often they actually do promote someone who deserves it. I knew a hardworking non-clout guy who never got any thanks from his bosses. One afternoon some breaking shit spills over from the burbs and he not only serves the burbs warrant but goes beyond that to recover a shitload of stolen property from the burbs and cracks a burglary ring with some terrorist links. Burbs chief drops a dime on Shortshanks and voila, promotion.
Yes, that's the exception. But anyone who thinks that a test score is the end all and be all is, well, "very misinformed."
The Mayor is more concerned with his re-election bid since he only has about a 25% approval rating. Any Police or Fire employee who votes for him is insane.
People are always telling me I'm crazy for working so I guess I verify it by voting for the mayor.
Open posting...there was a trial last week in federal court regarding civil rights violations on a 14th District search warrant. The trial was on damages only. Plaintiff was awarded the grand total of one dollar. Her attorney will not now get fees. If he was on a contingency basis he gets forty cents now. Earlier in the week a jury came back with a finding of not liable for the police officers. Just thought you should know that.

Attorney will get fees if any amount is awarded. This is called a "mock" award from a jury. Since this is a lawsuit against a municipality, the lawyers' fees get paid for by the municipality under the 1983 civil rights law enacted by none other than Teddy Kennedy.
Teddy, you were a genious!
This Foot Patrol idea came from Philly, Ramsey is the chief out there and is a friend of J-Fed, J-Fed thinks Ramsey walks on water and it seems to be doing OK in Philly so here it comes Chicago, These dumb Fucks that call themselves
Bosses can't figure out crap. Crime Stats are down here, some numbers messing around going on .Daley is setting us up for the kill, He is going to get manpower down to about 8,000 or if we get a good raise, watch this little fucker to lay off 300- 400 coppers, Sgts. included, HE knows that there is nobody that will run against him and this little man is a sure winner, He will get some lowly minorities to run against him and then when he wins he will be cockier than ever, have beer muscles and raise the fuck out of taxes. Tuck your heads into between your legs and enjoy the trip boys and girls
Every officer and detective in the city would have to be laid off before one Sgt. can be, it's in their contract...

What? they only get paid if they win, if they lose they get nothing, in fact, the city can now charge them for THEIR fees to defend the case....

Plaintiff's attorney will NOT be getting a dime in fees under Section 1983. There is such a thing as an offer of judgment. If plaintiff rejects the offer and the verdict comes in under the judgment, the attorney doesn't get anything.
Slow down big guy....this is probably what got you in the program in the first place!

EAsy bunkie dont burst(brust) a vessel there Gel head. And you should lay off the roids and testosterone punch in the "tact" office while youre at it. I know I know you are "all that" in your Cubs hat and jeans with your 150 dollar Jordans and such but PLEASE try to CALM DOWN and try decaf....
Repeat after me "Im not all that.....Im not all that......Im not all that....." ok good now take your thumb out of your mouth wipe those tears from your eyes,kiss that picture of JPW you have on your desk and..........
GO WRITE ME SOME FELONY ANOV's DAMMIT.
To 3/13/2010 08:31:00 AM, your suggestions for promotions, demotions, and "diversity" assumes that all those in your listed demographics are equally qualified. why can't we just say that some people need to step up their game in order to get promoted. but in your defense, most of those promotions are based on "who you know, not what you know." so you may have a good case for "diversifying" the top. still, i would hate to see someone get promoted just to fulfill some statistical survey and because they were white, black, hispanic, other, male or female. the news recently reported ( http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/2010/03/10/2010-03-10_study_more_minority_babies_likely_to_be_born_in_united_states_during_2010_than_w.html ) that 48 percent of new babies born in this country are minorities, which means by 2050 there will be no more "minorities" per se. it's time to stop these promotions for the sake of "diversity" and start doing it by "qualification," regardless of what you look like.
There are some who DESERVE a meritorious promotion, someone who has done the work, been in sh*t and survived, who happens to be a poor test taker. To promote only those who do well on the tests is to promote those who are only good test takers and can study. just because you are a good test taker, does not mean you are a good police officer. i once saw a sergeant who was promoted on the first list of promotions for having a top test score. that sergeant showed up at a shooting scene and did not know what was going on. the experienced officers at the scene had to tell the sergeant what to do. guess who got the credit for a job well done? the sergeant who never thanked those officers.

WAH, WAH, WAH!
BLAH, BLAH, BLAH! Too bad, who cares, cry to your mommy.
This is a CIVIL SERVICE JOB. If you hired, promoted based on legitimate test scores,seniority, and age the moral would simply be better on this department.
Some assholes will still be promoted, but they will be deserving civil servant assholes.
If you're going to cry about being a poor test taker than don't be a civil servant because that's what it's all about. All I care about is the TEST SCORE.

I never made MY OWN SUGGESTION for promotions, demotions with regard to diversity, I stated:
IF CPD WANTS TO REALLY PLAY THE DIVERSITY GAME ACROSS THE BOARD THEN......
I don't condone any of it and I would never want a promotion based on the color of my skin or my sex. I just got tired of the crying about race over the Lopez demotion and subsequent re-promotion, so I posted the facts surrounding the race and gender breakdown of exempts.
I think that hard work and qualifications should always trump someone's race and sex, however, we all know that doesn't always happen. There are some very qualified male white exempts as well as very qualified minorities.
I don't agree that people should step up their game. I think that they either have a good work ethic and know how to take care of their troops or they don't.
I have also seen a number of intelligent and book smart people get promoted off of the test, but they lack leadership skills and the ability see beyond their own agendas and take care of the blue shirts.
I agree, I would also not like seeing people get promoted just based on who they know, the color of their skin and their sex.
Thank you for your intelligent response rather than responding with an off topic rant like some. I appreciate it. I just posted the facts for all to see, that's all. It doesn't mean that I concur with any of it per the paragraph that followed the stats. Thanks again.
Yes, that's the exception. But anyone who thinks that a test score is the end all and be all is, well, "very misinformed."

No shit, Sherlock.
The bottom line is that for every street smart, professional, productive, and overall "nice guy" officer there are ten other officers with equal qualifications that will not be "Politically Anointed" and thus we have dissent ion and low moral. Meritorious selection process is and always will be unfair. Who makes the final decision? Mayor Daley? Jody Weis? An Alderman?
So to the blind, stupid and past and future "politically anointed" dumb asses the only thing that can matter in the promotional process is unfortunately the TEST SCORE, SENORITY, AND AGE.
So anyone that doesn't understand the CPD promotional practice fuckery is, well, a dummy and "Politically Anointed".
All I care about is the TEST SCORE!
