Except in Cook County
- Making a false 911 call is now a felony under an Illinois law sponsored by state Rep. Lisa Dugan, D-Bradley, and signed Monday by Gov. Pat Quinn.
Dugan introduced House Bill 6101 in response to the bogus emergency telephone call that led to a car crash that left Kankakee County Deputy Sheriff Dave Stukenborg severely paralyzed.
Stukenborg and his family joined Dugan, Quinn and others at the bill signing Monday at the Rehab Institute of Chicago.
We can hardly wait to see how the CCSA Office screws up this law.

You can't get felony approval for Battery on a PO, you'll never see it for this law.
AA and her buddies at the SAO hate us, they'd rather indict one of us than a scumball who is a true criminal.
Okay just to be sure I am correct, CCSA wont approve charges on crap thats blantant but they will approve this? keep drinking the koolaid
If you read the law you would have noticed the asterisk at the end. It states that the law will not apply to crook county.
Prosecutorial Discretion. No charges at this time.
Good luck getting charges approved on that one.
Recorded 911 tape saying perhaps...
Caller: "My baby daddy is in front and he just keyed my car."
911 " Does he have any weapons?"
Caller "He got a car key. Is that a weapon? He just keyed my car bitch. If he had wespons don't you think I would have told your ass. Dum bitch. Send the police."
911 " Ok we are sending the police. Keep your door locked. What is your name?"
Caller " Why you need my name. I told you he's in front. Come get him. You are taking too long. My name is Ms. Smith. That better. Now send the dam police."
Next call 1 minute 5 seconds later.
Caller: "Where the police at? He still outside and he's laughing at me."
911 "Ok ma'am. The police will be there as soon as resources permit. What's your name?."
Caller: "My name. You all ready got my name. It's Annie Smith. Now he got a gun. A big gun. Get your ass over here and lock him up." Click and dial tone.
Police arrive with both parties onscene and what do you know no gun. Ms Smith first denies saying he had a gun then after being told of the recorded 911 tapes she admits to saying he had a gun. Then says she only did it to get the police there faster. She's locked up. Read miranda rights. Admits to lieing on the phone to 911 but says she don't care as long as the baby daddy got locked up too.
Officer has her admitting to placeing bogus gun call, call taker's event with Ms Smith's bogus gun comment, and the recorded 911 tapes with Ms Smith's voice and her giving her name while stating false statement regarding the gun.
Asa. "Why are you calling about this? Oh it's a felony now. We don't have enough evidence. Charges denied."
making a false 911 call was already a felony so what's the big deal----
you could lock up half the city. false police reports.
Just give 'em an ANOV.
Who's the person that always sends a 1,000 letter essay in every comment section??? sheesh!! get your own blog
Sure, what you gonna do against those disconnected cellphones? They love to crank the police.
This is an easy one...dial PO-5-1313 and ask for "Dick."
Even if they would simply CHARGE these mutts with the felony, even if they weren't SENTENCED to do time, it would do wonders to keep it from continually happening over and over again.
None of the Baby mommas WANT to get arrested, so if they are inconvenienced once with arrest and processing, maybe they might learn a lesson? NOT! Its all BS, in Cook County, anyway!
02:41:00 AM - I know that's how they roll. But that was funny. almost spit my coffee out reading that. So true. But thanks for the morning laugh. Stay Safe Office.
Alvarez couldn't prosecute a case if she witnessed it. She's a big joke just like her office. Look if you are a lawyer and make less than a veteran PO then somethings wrong. Which is exactly what most asa's make. So you aren't exactly getting the best and brightest. You get what you pay for.
another feel good law passed by our state legislature for the photo op and press op that is just unenforcable in the real world.
how about they start charging these mutts with all of these false complaints they just love to file on us.
and im not just talking about the cases that are kinda hinky, im talking about the blatant bullshit these goofs feed IPRA just to get us off their backs.
BULLSHIT!
Cook Co ASA's will never approve charges on this no matter how strong the case....too bad they can't be sued for negligence.
Perhaps the blog can be our voice for the asa's who deny charges. We have to document their names on the report, might as well start documenting their names here.
No it won't stick. Just more grandstanding. They are still not leveling charges on those who make false complaints on police even though they've signed affidavits. I know that's not the county's responsibility but still they could do something too. This is just attempts to mold public perception. I would love to see actual charges for this but I suspect this is the last we'll hear about it from the county.
OT- I heard after working the lakefront that 2 po's in 018 were stripped because their prisoner swallowed some dope and died. Since when do we get blamed for shit like that. Anybody hear more? They are real hush hush about it in 018. Watch your backs...

You are wrong. SCC, why do you allow this myth to be perpetuated?
Getting the charge from felony review is relatively easy. Collect the evidence, collect the witnesses, and notify the area. Usually the resistance comes from within the department: watch commanders, supervisors, detectives, PO's unwilling to do the work, etc. What happens in court is where you should focus.
While there are numerous incidents of the SAO felony review section dropping the ball, personal experience tells me that most problems with the SAO stem from a lack of understanding between them and us relative to the final objective. This can only be resolved at the top of both organizations. So, it's probably hopeless.
Making Phony or Over Stated Calls To The CPD,Has Been A Time Honored Tradition. It Would Be A Clear Violation Of A Person's Civil Rights, Not To Be Able To Have A Little Fun With The Police.
PS: Have A Nice Day ????
DOES THIS INCLUDE THE FAKE PERSON WITH A GUN CALL TO GET U THERE QUICKER?
It's been a felony for years. Does no one know the criminal code anymore? And we actually used to lock people up for it. But that was in the once upon a time CPD before everyone got an I- bond and we had steady watches.
cook county sa office=biggest fucking joke in this country. The only thing they EVER go to bat for 100% IS FUCKING COPPERS. They DO NOT work for the police and the good citizen. Fuck them.
They just keep making law after law but then they make you jump through hoops to use it. Dog and pony show to make it look like they're doing something, because crime is the #1 thing to run for an office with.
There is no such thing as a felony in Crook County.
Quinn shouldn't sign shit,he's not a real governor.
I never in my life understood why in the world we respond to "person gotta gun", "my baby daddy got a gun", "five to eight male blacks be fighting with bats, bottles, guns and bombs".
I will respond, but I won't be fucking going 80 miles per hour. But time and time again, many other cars respond to such bullshit. We are our own work enemies. We blame others but won't even reform our own behavior. Once again, we are our own worst enemy.
It WAS a misdemeanor!!
(12) Calls the number "911" for the purpose of
making or transmitting a false alarm or complaint and reporting information when, at the time the call or transmission is made, the person knows there is no reasonable ground for making the call or transmission and further knows that the call or transmission could result in the emergency response of any public safety agency.
(b) Sentence. A violation of subsection (a)(1) of this Section is a Class C misdemeanor. A violation of subsection (a)(5), (a)(11), or (a)(12) of this Section is a Class A misdemeanor.
Her new campaign slogan.
VOTE for Anita--I let your people go--Alvarez. I promise to let you pay your almost nothing bail on your links.
Every law abiding taxpayer needs to VOTE THEM OUT.

That was the phone umber for dial-a-beating
Just make every infraction a "felony" --i.e., potentially punishable by 365 days or more of incarceration. It'll only be enforced occasonally, in an arbitrary and capricious manner and generally on decent people -- who are easier to find and safer to arrest -- but when it is, it'll destroy at least one person's life.
Now, for the last time -- NO LAWN SPRINKLING ON THURSDAYS! (sound of gunfire crackling in distance)
"five to eight male blacks be fighting with bats, bottles, guns and bombs". ......
Oh I see you work on the West Side too.....:)
But that was in the once upon a time CPD before everyone got an I- bond and we had steady watches.

Ah yes, the good ol' daze...when you could slip the D/C, W/C and desk sgt. $$$ to have a steady watch...
