What's This?

Can anyone confirm?
  • "Be careful what you do to an IPRA employee's son. If he is an asshole or not, momma is gonna protect her baby."
Some might claim IPRA shouldn't be investigating if someone they employ has an axe to grind. They'd have a good argument in that case.

Anyone who lets their temper get the best of them in this climate needs to wake up. This supt. will jam us up in a heartbeat.

If asshole throws a beer, call in enough officers with pepper spray and tasers and arrest the clown without a beating and charge him with Agg Batt to a PO and if momma works for IPRA let her be on the news explaining her son's egregious conduct.

Doesn't sound like much compared to many we've all seen but with this sissified coward weis a slap is grounds for federal charges and prison.

Be careful, keep your wits about you, keep cool no matter what. If you are going to go off, leave and let others handle it.

It just isn't worth it for this city, remember your family and your future.

IPRA handles all complaints where there is an allegation of excessive force or all shootings. IAD and your District or Unit sergeants handle the rest, with the majority of all Complaint Log numbers being handled by the District or Unit sergeants. Know your profession, know the orders and especially know your contract. The more you know, the better chance you have of not getting fucked if you ever get caught up in a jam.

I would second that.

I hope they didn't tune up the offender in question. It's a new day now, they will fire and jail us if we allow ourselves to lose our tempers. It's just business, even though the shits we deal with try to make it personal, we have too much to lose.

If a handcuffed prisoner is spitting on police he is committing a battery and is an Active Resistor at the very least. An open hand stunning blow to the face is a perfectly Justified Use of Force according to the department Use of Force Model against an active resistor (handcuffed or not as taught by the academy). I was not there but hopefully that is all that is on this tape.

------------------
Jody doesn't understand this because he would have ran away long before he had the chance to encounter a resister.

Every time that I got into even a slight scuffle with an offender I aways made out an IOD and went to the hospital. Always make sure to tell teh ER Nurse that you are in pain(at least 7 on the scale) and need to get treated. Always take a pain pill if they offer it and if not, request one. If you need a few days off then call in the next day and you know the rest. Well, most of you hair gels wont know what I am talking about.

From IPRA's website:

An allegation that a Chicago Police Officer committed misconduct is a serious event for the person alleging misconduct and the officer. Both deserve a thorough, fair and timely investigation of the allegation.

79th & Vincennes is a shit corner.
Anyone hanging out there was probably in need of whatever hand was dealt them by LEOs. Having said that, we all know there are cameras everywhere. Do only what you need to do, and no more. Drive away with the windows up and the music loud if you must. Protecting your job should be on top of your 'to-do' list every tour of duty.
Last, I concur with the poster who said to bring in the Feds to investigate this incident. I think IPRA can't be trusted on this one, and IAD can't be either (full of political hacks who will do whatever the Hall wants them to). Let the Feds check out all the facts, and allow them to call the investigative 'ball' on this one. Anything less will be a farce.

But we have a carbine program !!! Right ?!!
Try signing up for the non-existent class on e-learning !
Hey, Iwas already trained with a shotgun over twenty years ago,if I buy my own,can I bring it to work and lock it in the trunk instead of the carbine ?11
What do you say boss???

10/19/2010 01:02:00 AM

THATS ALL THIS CITY NEEDS.... Officers armed and ready to defend the citizens against this "Mumbai" type of attack everyone fears may happen again. The carbine programs is withering away. The shotgun is the simplest weapon to use and much more economical to purchase and maintain. Ammo is cheap. The training is minimal and its a very effective tool. It is an alternative or sometimes more appropriate weapon for an urban environment. The ammo doesnt travel as far as a .556 (M4 round) in case of a stray round and you dont need as much precision with the round placement. The sight of them alone has a psycological effect to disperse most unruly crowds and calm down the aggressors (nice attention get'er), saving Police and people from injury. The more importatant question is..... "WTF do you mean I may not have a pension at the end of my service here!?!?"

If this kid is the family member of an IPRA employee, then any investigation IPRA conducts wont mean shit since the appearance of it being tainted will negate the results.

A smart move would be to ask the Illinois State Police Public Integrity Unit to investigate. They already investigate shootings for most suburban departments. It's a way to have an impartial, fair and balanced investigation without the politics.

IPRA is not INDEPENDENT. They have an agenda. I guess if the media does not dig into this story they are following their own agenda, again and not an agenda of truth.

They happen in locker rooms, bars and parking lots. Fathers deliver them to sons that need them. Some moms do to. They do not constitute brutality.

J-Fled is on a whirl wind TV tour to rejuvenate his embarrassing career. To do this he will throw seven family members under the bus, and not give a thought as to how this will effect wives, children, moms and dads. He is despicable and has absolutely no honor.

He does not care how fluffing up this non-event will cost the taxpayers a bundle when the low life attorneys pick up this streaming pile of crap.

Indictment Against Chicago Cop Reinstated

October 19, 2010 2:28 PM

"A Chicago police officer once again faces felony criminal charges after an appellate court struck down a Cook County judge's decision to dismiss the indictment against him.

"The ruling reinstates charges of official misconduct, perjury and obstruction of justice against John Haleas, the Chicago police officer once lauded for racking up the most arrests for DUI in the city.

"The case stems from a 2005 arrest Haleas performed while two prosecutors were riding along with him. He allegedly failed to administer a field sobriety test to the suspect, but the prosecutors later noted that he wrote reports reflecting that he had performed the test. Following an internal investigation, the police department suspended Haleas for one day in July 2007 and in April 2008 he was indicted on the criminal charges.

"In August 2009, Circuit Judge James Obbish dismissed the indictment after finding that the state's use of the internal police statement violated Haleas' Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and tainted the rest of the case against him...."

Saw Daley earlier on Channel 7 News putting in his two-cents-worth about how incidents like this are intolerable.

He was surrounded by a group of male black teens who collectively shook their head in disgust at his every word.

I wanted to vomit.

Again...ANYONE* who does any kind of proactive police work is a fucking fool. And don't give me the "court is the best part time job" spiel. If you need the extra cash that bad, find anything else that doesn't require you to gamble every time you put handcuffs on someone or every time you raise your right hand and "solemnly swear".

When you stick your neck out (even a little) to bring in bullshit numbers to keep the supervisors off your back/make some money in court, you are rolling the dice with your freedom, assets, character and overall well being. You don't have to be a genius to figure out the climate has not been in our favor for quite some time, and probably won't be any time soon.

Weis is just pissed that Anita Alvarez, who you all seem to hate, declined to prosecute the case. Maybe she's not so bad after all. And everyone know that the FED won't prosecute shit here because the offender (sarge) and victim are both black. The white police just stood around. They didn't lay a finger on the guy. No white police slapping people = no civil rights prosecution. Take that shit to the bank, Yo.

I've seen a lot of bizzare crap over 30 years on this job, but this little outburst on the part of JFled is really over the top. Having worked at IAD when it was at 11th and State (a long time ago) it was NEVER the practice to strip anyone unless there was clear criminality involved - and only when an arrest was probable. This situation as reported does not rise to that standard. Touching up a guy who throws an object at an officer or in some way attempts to defeat the arrest is not grounds to immediately strip that officer - especially a supervisor, let alone call a f'n press conference to announce it to the media. Where the f did that shit come from? A situation in which brutality was alleged, OPS (now IPRA), would conduct an investigation and we would do a parallel investigation - depending upon the circumstances. Great pains were taken NOT to violate the officers rights. And, contrary to common belief, most guys who worked IAD had no axe to grind with the rank and file. If you had worked there and actually seen the goofs compared to the actual working coppers who put their safety and health on the line for the city, you would fully understand that petty beefs had no place there. Real criminals, medical abusers, thiefs, gangbangers and dope dealers that wore the uniform were the targets of that division. OPS(IPRA) on the other hand, is merely a political aminal and window dressing for the reverends and criminals who are trying to control this city.
For JFled to jump out and make a pronouncement in the manner he did just shows how much of an opportunist and scumbag he is.
Well, at least he stopped wearing the uniform since Phil busted him out.

OT: City of Chicago Pension Funds.

john said...

Does it make a difference with no pension. ? I have posted before with the following
Pension goes belly up
earliest -2018
latest -2022
Now there is a study out by Finance geeks saying city pension funds will be bellyup by 2020.
Not bad for an old retired guy

10/12/2010 11:17:00 AM

Per Channel 5/WMAQ 5:00 PM News, Alderman Ed Burke told the city council earlier today that 4 of the city pension funds will be belly up by the year 2030 and the only way to stop it would be for the city to put 650 million a year towards pensions for the next 40 years!

Boys and girls, things are not looking good!

10/19/2010 05:15:00 PM


Take this to the bank: Burke is doing Daley's bidding in public. Remember, the Mayor, you know, Daley as in the guy who likes to get aldermen to do his bidding and support his dirty underhanded plans out loud in public before the fact.

Burke, and Daley through Burke, is posturing for changes to the pension system. They are telling the public that gee folks, we will have to fuck you all in the ass to continue paying these greedy city employees those god damned exorbitant pensions; unless, unless you let us change the pension laws to our liking and allow the city get out from under the pension fund payments so that we (Daley) don't have to answer for the years of corruption and mismanagement.

They are seeking to put everything wrong in city government on the backs of retired city workers and skate on billions of pension fund obligations.

Do you really think that Ed Burke, alderman, finance committee chairman, most powerful member of the city council , who knows where all the bodies are buried, is just blowing the fiscal responsibility trumpet because he feels it is wise and prudent to do so?

Yeah? Really? Wow, what a wonderful thing for the wise old Alderman Burke to do for all of us!

Come on! These are the people who have made careers of fucking other people in the ass in political maneuvers and now it is our turn to squeal!

It is posturing, priming the pump to get the pension reforms daley wants, nothing more.

All that hogwash about being partners with the unions and jointly finding a solution?

Pure bullshit.

All the while daley & company were cooking up the real "pension reform" scheme and it isn't to benefit us!

October 18, 2010

Some aldermen heaped praise on Weis, who has faced intense criticism from the union that represents officers.

"Keep on doing it, and if it rubs people the wrong way, so be it, just keep doing your job," said Ald. Ed Smith, 28th.

Serena Maria Daniels and John Byrne contributed to this report.

Corn hole ran and got caught with a gun. MF's the police, tussled with them. then once handcuffed, battered the police by spitting in their face (Lets hope dummy doesn't have any diseases). That is a battery to a police officer. If a police officer then pushes, slaps or bends the offenders face away to stop him from continuing to batter any other officers, you're justified.

Not to my way of thinking. I am in a district, I am left alone mostly. I work alone. I have none of the problems I read about in a unit. I've been to units. There is absolutely no pressure on me to perform. I am already at the bottom rung. I can't get any lower. I smile every day. The worst part is just going to work. Really, this is not bad and I get a nap in on most days.

I answer my calls and go home. No aggravation, no complaining "look what so-and-so got" Just riding out the string.

It is all attitude. This isn't bad. I look busy while doing little. Those who are all pissed off just aren't playing the game properly. Use your head, don't worry, be happy.
