Brutal Sat night. 7 shot in a bar in 003 with 1 dead. 4 shot in 008. A couple killed elsewhere and about 17 shot overnight? Het JFed, if the gang meeting reduced violence to nothing since your talk with the leaders why aren't you in the districts like 003, 008 and 007 where it's all wild west? Maybe because there are a lot of other factors to the violence than you think. A night like last night shows just how much impact MSF, TRU and GEU have - none. But rebuilding the districts' authorized stenght may have an impact. How about trying it? Maybe the old way really is the best way: cops on the beats where they are needed.
halloween is just a great holiday--- adults drinking themselves silly in front of their kids and acting like idiots--- packs of youths roaming the streets throwing eggs and shaving cream at everything while destroying public and private property--- at least we don't burn everything like they do in detroit---- happy halloween and to all the poor guys who have to work 3rd or 1st watch, be safe....
Regarding the tac team/U of C incident; it would take all of 42 seconds to get their info if they did not want to handle the arrest. Put them in box 1, notate they are arresting officers in the narrative, done. Still get credit for arrest and gun, and not looking at 30 pending.

Unfortunately, this cartoon could be seen as the modern-day replacement for John T. McCutcheon's famous drawing of the season, "Injun Summer," which the Chicago Tribune ran on the front page of its magazine from September 30, 1907 to October 25, 1992. For me, it more than anything else announced the arrival of fall.
The Tribune claims that "The drawings may be timeless, but the text had outlived its day. Complaints had been voiced for several years about its offensiveness to Native Americans." While the Tribune no longer runs this gentle, utterly harmless, mystical tribute to autumn and memorial to the area's Indian tribes of the past, it knows a good thing when it sees it, and will happily sell you a copy; unmounted $5.95, mounted $59.00.
Such is the "sperrit" of our times today...do you take VISA?

Man Could Face Death Penalty In Ill. Student Death
The Associated Press Saturday, October 30, 2010; 9:57 PM
"DEKALB, Ill. -- An Illinois man may face the death penalty if convicted in the slaying of a college freshman who went missing earlier this month.
"William Curl is jailed on $5 million bail in the death of Northern Illinois University freshman Antinette "Toni" Keller. The 34-year-old Curl of DeKalb appeared in court Saturday via closed-circuit TV.
"He has been charged with first-degree murder, criminal sexual assault and arson.
"DeKalb County Judge James Donnelly told Curl about the death penalty possibility in court.
"The 18-year-old Keller was last seen Oct. 14. Two days later, burned human remains were found in a park near the university in DeKalb, 65 miles west of Chicago."
"DEKALB -- The man accused of murdering 18-year-old Antinette “Toni” J. Keller of Plainfield was unemployed and lived in a public housing unit meant mainly for senior citizens and the disabled...DeKalb police have said Curl is believed to be jobless and had never been a student at or worked for NIU. He had lived in the public housing complex for about four years...A neighbor of Curl's in the 16-story public housing complex Golden Years Plaza, said he used to live on her floor before moving to his current eighth floor apartment."
"No one from Keller's family attended the first hearing Saturday morning for William “Billy” P. Curl, who faces nine charges for allegedly raping, burning and killing Keller: five counts of first-degree murder, and charges of arson, criminal sexual assault, unlawful possession of a converted motor vehicle and obstructing justice."
Talk about early retirement -- it must be nice to move into the "Golden Years Plaza" at age 34 and to spend one's endless, idle days stalking victims in the parks for sport.
"The remains were so badly burned, officials said, that they had to be sent to an out-of-state forensic expert to confirm they were human."
Think about that for a minute.
Lethal injection is too good for some people. Thank God he was captured so quickly, before he could harm anyone else.
All I can do is to offer a prayer for the victim and her family and friends.
Hats off to Commander Fletcher 003 for backing up his troops in that 10-1 for the 7 people shot. It was wild out there and he was on scene as quick as anyone assisting with getting those animals under control. Big thanks to 2nd district for backing us up, we needed the extra manpower big time.
Does anybody know if Capt Zawis 018 was able to get his retirement star while under investigation for the lawsuit and committing perjury in Federal Court while testifying, for the plaintiff, against 4 Police Officers.

WRONG!!!!
This is almost 30 years experience saying this, most cops that do vote will vote Republican, certainly on the state and national tickets.
The problem is that MOST COPS DON'T VOTE AT ALL.
It was said in recent elections that only 25% of CPD voted, and I assume that also includes that all the people, family and so forth that they can influence. No wonder Shorty wants to keep the residency requirement and can push us around. He can take our tax dollars and not worry about a backlash at the polls because we don't bother.
Try to find an older CPD cop who ever voted for Shorty.
Stay safe. Have you voted yet, do you plan to vote November 2nd. If not you are playing right into Shorty's hands.
P.S. To SCC How can we get an estimate of how many cops will have voted this election?
I noticed fewer elaborate Halloween displays this year; it was really going during the real estate balloon, when it became Halloween instantly on the day after Labor Day, with a red-hot 45-day-long retail season fit to rival Christmas.
I was actively starting to resent Halloween, as it had become the desperate, forcible mercantile replacement for the entire season of Autumn, and for Thanksgiving -- but people have flipped their last condo, and have blown their home equity loan on big-screens and pairs of matching Hummers and all that plastic-tombstone junk by now.
It's kind of a relief. There was getting to be something juvenile, childish -- in the pejorative sense, as opposed to "childlike," "innocent" -- about the whole thing. Every single day can't be a holiday, no matter how badly Mr. and Mrs. Twentysomething "want the good stuff."
I hope the little kids have fun running around in the dark with flashlights (a "ray gun" that turns different colors and beeps is even better, in my personal experience with space weaponry), screaming and making weird noises, and I hope they get lots of good candy. Nothing beats the family getting together and making a homemade costume. That's really what it's supposed to be.
Over on the idiot side of things, everyone watch out for the DUIs and domestics and the parties gone suddenly, explosively bad when someone starts throwing up s__t and someone else runs to their car for a gun(sigh)...
God bless all on this beautiful afternoon. Be safe tonight.

If you are familiar with the postings on this blog, it is not a reach to view any post, no matter how outrageous or inane, as legitimate. It is beneath sophomoric to find criticism or humor in something as asinine as falsely yelling "fire" in a crowd and then laughing at those who believe the alarm. Punked by a punk.
Thanks for the JibJabs. I laughed so hard i spit candy all over my screen. Monster mash was ny far the funniest thing since the boys dancing in their tights! Again thank you-

What's with all the nonsense by Mt. Greenwood park every year? Garbage everywhere. This has got to stop. Doesnt 022 know it's coming and do something about it? What do we pay taxes for?
Once again Halloween in Beverly/West Beverly, where there is no parking because the ghetto has emptied out because they have screwed up their neighborhoods so bad. Packs of wild animals, half teenagers not even in costumes, pushing, shoving and grabbing for candy. And of course mama has a bag for herself!
Hey you dumped Dugan for one violent weekend back during the summer. How about dumping Ernie Brown for all the violence in the ghetto yesterday. It's only fair Mr Weis or are you color blind?
Wake up and Vote on Tuesday people!! I suggest we vote incumbents out, and vote small government politicians in. Obama socialism is flushing America and Illinois right down the toilet......wake up America!!!
the Hair Gel bit is funny as hell!!!!! but right on the money. Another thing, MSF, GEU, and the other fkn unit get their quality of life arrest and all 8 go on the paper and leave home before 2am. Send all these MF's back to the beat. 99 unit on views the blood bath in 003 last night! 7 shot one dead.

Well said!
My friend (who is black) said to me yesterday, "I don't know why all you white people get so excited about Halloween. All it means for us is someones going to get shot."
Doesnt 022 know it's coming and do something about it? What do we pay taxes for? ********** Hey, curb your kids, and call the park district or streets and san to clean up the garbage your kids left there....
I live in Beverly and noticed all of the children (not from the neighborhood) being dropped off in cars to trick or treat. My 5-year old took his own informal poll as he handed out candy and asked the kids where they went to school. There was not one from Christ the King, Barnabas, Sutherland or Kellog! They would mention the school name and then announce, "it's "Engwood" or "Rozelan". Why can't these kids trick or treat in their own neighborhoods? Don't the residents of these areas purchase candy for the little darlings?
To whomever keeps posting about Zawis (Brian): I worked for him and never had a problem. The key word there is "worked". Try it sometime. Never had a boss bother me. Never.
Every dog out there thinks the bosses have nothing better to do than sit around and decide who to mess with. Like it's a hobby. Every guy that worked never thought twice about it, too busy doing the job they are paid to do. Go whine somewhere else.
To 11/01 at 3:06AM.... ---------------------------------
If some black folks realize that Halloween means someone will get shot/killed in their neighborhood, then they had better move out of that neighborhood, and live among civilized people who know how to conduct themselves.
Certain elements of certain races prefer to live in chaos...they like the excitement....and then they're rewarded with entitlements by the democrats/socialists, in return for their vote. If you happen to disagree with the climate/mentality of your neighborhood, move out. But, if all you can say is, "woe is me...folks gonna get killed on Halloween", then, a-hole, you are living where you belong...you'll get no sympathy from me.
Try to find an older CPD cop who ever voted for Shorty.
Stay safe. Have you voted yet, do you plan to vote November 2nd. If not you are playing right into Shorty's hands.
P.S. To SCC How can we get an estimate of how many cops will have voted this election?
10/31/2010 03:25:00 PM
-- I've been able to vote since the early 80's and never voted for Daley. What's more important, though, is that I voted for someone else.
It isn't enough to NOT vote for a particular office. You have to actually vote for the 'other' guy.
And, as for finding out how many of us voted, sorry Charlie. It's one of the few rights to privacy we still hold in this country. Who we vote for and IF we vote is none of your business. (Of course, if we don't vote, we absolutley forfeit our right to bitch, moan and complain about those elected to office.)
What choice do they have? Mt Greenwood park gets an estimated 400-500 kids throwing eggs and shaving cream every year in the park. In the past, they were driven out of the park, and tore up private property in the neighborhood. Also, the vast majority of the little darlings are firemen and policemen's kids. The stacks of beefs against the PO's was brutal when efforts were made to drive them out of the park. Lastly, remember about 4 years ago, the guy who tried to confront 4 kids at 111 and Central Park over throwing eggs (not at his car, he just felt like giving a civics lesson)? I wonder how he felt the next morning with his cracked skull. To stop them , it would take a plan the size of the South Side Parade, and we know how well that turned out every year.

Illinois is a really bad state as far as placing violent felons and sex offenders and so forth into nursing facilities with the elderly. Old folks are routinely robbed, hit, beaten, raped, even killed.
I got a name for ya. Let's get Lisa Madigan to explain this.

Yeah, there is just something especially horrible about this stuff going on over a turkey dinner, or as Christmas music plays. I'll never forget happening to hear the Evanston police radio one holiday night, big party, where some 19-year-old Hit The Big One playing Russian Roulette. All over the place. Oh, the hysterics, the screaming in the background as the officer tried to get over, "YEAH, SQUAD, THIS IS BONA FIDE..."
...and they wonder why coppers sometimes have a few too many...(shudder)

I saw how one grocery store in Jeff Park handled this. On Halloween eve, six hulking teens approaching the checkout with double armloads of egg cartons were told "No. Put those back. We won't sell them to you tonight. Come back tomorrow if you still want them."
It worked fine. I mean, even the worst s__tass parents aren't going to get excited enough to try hiring a lawyer. "The store reserves the right to limit quantities." "The store reserves the right to refuse service to anyone." Says so right here in the sale flyer.
And get those skateboards out of the store too.
Amazing what happens when people say "no."
Get out the hoses and start cleaning up the mess in the park while they're throwing. Been told not to. No one's fault if they stay there and get wet, we got a job to do. Go cry to da boss over dere.

Thats the comedy relief we need everyday. He is a dumbass for putting himself in that spot for saying shit like that. Unless u have clout, forget about it and get an event number.
This reminds me a first meet with jfled called "tell me all your troubles" at 35th . Dude opened his mouth a complained about the fact that he has 5 years on the job and cant get into marine unit. Priceless!!!
copper shot tonight.. either in 009 or 012.. any details?

If you are familiar with the postings on this blog, it is not a reach to view any post, no matter how outrageous or inane, as legitimate. It is beneath sophomoric to find criticism or humor in something as asinine as falsely yelling "fire" in a crowd and then laughing at those who believe the alarm. Punked by a punk.
Msf officer just shot in 011 on traffic stop. hope he is doing well
Thanks for the JibJabs. I laughed so hard i spit candy all over my screen. Monster mash was ny far the funniest thing since the boys dancing in their tights! Again thank you-
Some interesting posts here this week.
Regarding the tac team/U of C incident; it would take all of 42 seconds to get their info if they did not want to handle the arrest. Put them in box 1, notate they are arresting officers in the narrative, done. Still get credit for arrest and gun, and not looking at 30 pending.

U of C can not go in box 1 or 2. You are right though about the narrative. That is all they had to do. U of C gave chase, Shit head in custody and turned over to yada yada
Lets find out who authorized him to live in this housing unit and give out his name and reason.
Sounds like cabrini green where a man lived rent free for 59 Years.
Lets douse this creep with gas,(while still alive) and save the injection for the creep who authorized him.

What's with all the nonsense by Mt. Greenwood park every year? Garbage everywhere. This has got to stop. Doesnt 022 know it's coming and do something about it? What do we pay taxes for?

Once again Halloween in Beverly/West Beverly, where there is no parking because the ghetto has emptied out because they have screwed up their neighborhoods so bad. Packs of wild animals, half teenagers not even in costumes, pushing, shoving and grabbing for candy. And of course mama has a bag for herself!
I love it! How ap..ra...poh? I can't spell it...
Hey you dumped Dugan for one violent weekend back during the summer. How about dumping Ernie Brown for all the violence in the ghetto yesterday. It's only fair Mr Weis or are you color blind?
Wake up and Vote on Tuesday people!! I suggest we vote incumbents out, and vote small government politicians in. Obama socialism is flushing America and Illinois right down the toilet......wake up America!!!
the Hair Gel bit is funny as hell!!!!! but right on the money.
Another thing, MSF, GEU, and the other fkn unit get their quality of life arrest and all 8 go on the paper and leave home before 2am. Send all these MF's back to the beat. 99 unit on views the blood bath in 003 last night! 7 shot one dead.
I noticed fewer elaborate Halloween displays this year; it was really going during the real estate balloon, when it became Halloween instantly on the day after Labor Day, with a red-hot 45-day-long retail season fit to rival Christmas.
I was actively starting to resent Halloween, as it had become the desperate, forcible mercantile replacement for the entire season of Autumn, and for Thanksgiving -- but people have flipped their last condo, and have blown their home equity loan on big-screens and pairs of matching Hummers and all that plastic-tombstone junk by now.
It's kind of a relief. There was getting to be something juvenile, childish -- in the pejorative sense, as opposed to "childlike," "innocent" -- about the whole thing. Every single day can't be a holiday, no matter how badly Mr. and Mrs. Twentysomething "want the good stuff."
I hope the little kids have fun running around in the dark with flashlights (a "ray gun" that turns different colors and beeps is even better, in my personal experience with space weaponry), screaming and making weird noises, and I hope they get lots of good candy. Nothing beats the family getting together and making a homemade costume. That's really what it's supposed to be.
Over on the idiot side of things, everyone watch out for the DUIs and domestics and the parties gone suddenly, explosively bad when someone starts throwing up s__t and someone else runs to their car for a gun(sigh)...
God bless all on this beautiful afternoon. Be safe tonight.

Well said!
My friend (who is black) said to me yesterday, "I don't know why all you white people get so excited about Halloween. All it means for us is someones going to get shot."
Doesnt 022 know it's coming and do something about it? What do we pay taxes for?

Hey, curb your kids, and call the park district or streets and san to clean up the garbage your kids left there....
I live in Beverly and noticed all of the children (not from the neighborhood) being dropped off in cars to trick or treat. My 5-year old took his own informal poll as he handed out candy and asked the kids where they went to school. There was not one from Christ the King, Barnabas, Sutherland or Kellog! They would mention the school name and then announce, "it's
"Engwood" or "Rozelan". Why can't these kids trick or treat in their own neighborhoods? Don't the residents of these areas purchase candy for the little darlings?
To whomever keeps posting about Zawis (Brian): I worked for him and never had a problem. The key word there is "worked". Try it sometime. Never had a boss bother me. Never.
Every dog out there thinks the bosses have nothing better to do than sit around and decide who to mess with. Like it's a hobby. Every guy that worked never thought twice about it, too busy doing the job they are paid to do. Go whine somewhere else.
but, he sounded so sincere......

Two instances of subtle sarcasm.
LOVE this cartoon!
To 11/01 at 3:06AM....

If some black folks realize that Halloween means someone will get shot/killed in their neighborhood, then they had better move out of that neighborhood, and live among civilized people who know how to conduct themselves.
Certain elements of certain races prefer to live in chaos...they like the excitement....and then they're rewarded with entitlements by the democrats/socialists, in return for their vote. If you happen to disagree with the climate/mentality of your neighborhood, move out. But, if all you can say is, "woe is me...folks gonna get killed on Halloween", then, a-hole, you are living where you belong...you'll get no sympathy from me.
To 0819 Am, or should I say Dave, who's ass are you going to kiss after zawis is gone.
Try to find an older CPD cop who ever voted for Shorty.
Stay safe. Have you voted yet, do you plan to vote November 2nd. If not you are playing right into Shorty's hands.
P.S. To SCC How can we get an estimate of how many cops will have voted this election?

I've been able to vote since the early 80's and never voted for Daley. What's more important, though, is that I voted for someone else.
It isn't enough to NOT vote for a particular office. You have to actually vote for the 'other' guy.
And, as for finding out how many of us voted, sorry Charlie. It's one of the few rights to privacy we still hold in this country. Who we vote for and IF we vote is none of your business. (Of course, if we don't vote, we absolutley forfeit our right to bitch, moan and complain about those elected to office.)
What choice do they have? Mt Greenwood park gets an estimated 400-500 kids throwing eggs and shaving cream every year in the park. In the past, they were driven out of the park, and tore up private property in the neighborhood.
Also, the vast majority of the little darlings are firemen and policemen's kids. The stacks of beefs against the PO's was brutal when efforts were made to drive them out of the park.
Lastly, remember about 4 years ago, the guy who tried to confront 4 kids at 111 and Central Park over throwing eggs (not at his car, he just felt like giving a civics lesson)? I wonder how he felt the next morning with his cracked skull.
To stop them , it would take a plan the size of the South Side Parade, and we know how well that turned out every year.

Illinois is a really bad state as far as placing violent felons and sex offenders and so forth into nursing facilities with the elderly. Old folks are routinely robbed, hit, beaten, raped, even killed.
I got a name for ya. Let's get Lisa Madigan to explain this.

Yeah, there is just something especially horrible about this stuff going on over a turkey dinner, or as Christmas music plays. I'll never forget happening to hear the Evanston police radio one holiday night, big party, where some 19-year-old Hit The Big One playing Russian Roulette. All over the place. Oh, the hysterics, the screaming in the background as the officer tried to get over, "YEAH, SQUAD, THIS IS BONA FIDE..."
...and they wonder why coppers sometimes have a few too many...(shudder)
Think, kids. Think before you do s__t.
Please?

I saw how one grocery store in Jeff Park handled this. On Halloween eve, six hulking teens approaching the checkout with double armloads of egg cartons were told "No. Put those back. We won't sell them to you tonight. Come back tomorrow if you still want them."
It worked fine. I mean, even the worst s__tass parents aren't going to get excited enough to try hiring a lawyer. "The store reserves the right to limit quantities." "The store reserves the right to refuse service to anyone." Says so right here in the sale flyer.
And get those skateboards out of the store too.
Amazing what happens when people say "no."
Get out the hoses and start cleaning up the mess in the park while they're throwing. Been told not to. No one's fault if they stay there and get wet, we got a job to do. Go cry to da boss over dere.
No one likes "wet and cold."
"worked". Try it sometime. Never had a boss bother me. Never.
Go back to sucking his ass.
