Officer Cleared
Three years ago, Chicago police Officer Craig Swistowicz was working on a task force, targeting drug traffickers alongside federal colleagues.
After he made an arrest, one suspect accused Swistowicz of beating him, and eventually a federal agent corroborated the report. The officer found himself charged with federal civil rights violations.
On Friday, a federal jury acquitted the 14-year veteran of wrongdoing.
Michael A. Ficaro, Swistowicz's attorney, credited the acquittal to testimony by a defense expert that challenged suspect Jose Parra's story that he was handcuffed when he was struck. Swistowicz took the stand in his defense, re-enacting the arrest for the jury during the eight-day trial.
Ficaro said that Parra was resisting arrest and that Swistowicz was trying to get him under control when he struck him. Parra had a gun in his waistband, Ficaro said.

Weis... hello...
...anyone!
(cricket chirp, chirp, chirp)
Fuck you FBI dick-bags! You owe your lifes to this Chicago policeman's actions. You'll never be the police. You'll never be respected!!!!
We are SO happy for you SWISS!
Keep fighting the good fight!

For the record their was a DEA Agent who admmitted to lying and perjury, how come our media does nothing to bring this to light.
What Swiss went through was horrific yet he kept his head up and I commend him for that. This should be a lesson for all of CPD who work on these Task Forces'. I by no means am saying that all feds are rats because they are not, that was proven by the support he received in court from the DEA and other agencies.
One other thing I read that disturbed me was that somebody accused Tobias of testifying for the prosecution, I can assure you that did not happen, he testified on our Use of Force Policy and I truly believe it helped Swiss.
The bottom line is he was found not guilty.
Congratulations Craig I hope your holidays are enjoyable this year because I know it was hell on you for the past few years.
Now let's see if he goes back to work for the people that tried to put him in jail. Hope he learned a lesson about never trusting a Fed.
gEE THE FEDS MUST LOVE US!!
I know a few guys on various task forces. I know this is considered a great spot, but you have to be seriously out of your minds to stay on a federal task force. After what was done to Swiss let them man their own task forces. Swiss did what he was supposed to do, did it correctly and then was a victim of a federal witch hunt. He was aquitted at trial but at what cost, how much did this cost him money, reputation, stress and general disruption of one's life. You have seen what the feds will do, if you choose to stay on their task force well, shame on you.
Congratulations Officer Swistowicz. I cannot begin to imagine the hell you have been through. I was completely sickened when I first heard your story. Sickened, pissed off, demoralized..... Sounds like after everything you went through you stayed positive and now still want to work. My hat is off to you, sir. Good luck.
Congratulations! I was in the academy with this guy. Always a cool dude.
remember guys trust the FEDS!
He should be back working now!
Name the Feds involved.
Of course the media is downplaying the whole thing. guaranteed that if he was found guilty it would be front page news, but since he was found not guilty it will be buried somewhere after page 5 maybe.
AND there was no mention of the history of this case. It was first indicted in wisconsin due to an apparent conflict of interest in the northern district of Illinois. then wisconsin AUSA dropped the charges. shortly thereafter, the northern district indicted CS. what was up with this turn of events? maybe the innocence project of northwestern will take up this travesty of justice? hahaha whadamithinkin! or maybe the people's law office will stand up for a p.o. wrongly accused, by no less than a federal agent
Anyways, CONGRATS to Swiss.
God Bless You.
NEVER TRUST A FED !
Feds are slimy wanna be cop pieces of shit. More like secretaries with a badge who could not shine my shoes.
The Feds are NOT our friends, if they ever want to talk to you tell them to show you a warrant or fuck off because they will try and screw you
The good guys in this saga are Dean Polales and Mike Ficaro. They did an excellent job in defending Swisto.
On Thursday the jury went home early after the foreman sent a note to Judge Lefkow that they were going home to prevent physical iolence in the jury room. Apparently the one holdout came to his senses the next day and agreed to acquit.
Polales and Ficaro are great lawyers!
Did the Feds involved just stand and watch? Were they paralyzed when it's was learned the bad guy had a gun?
Or was it the whole putting hands on a bad guy that was the problem.
Nothing like interagency cooperation.
These feds think they're like some "special" creature that is above all else. Many of these clowns don't have a clue or don't want one regarding grunt police work. Unless the fed swat team is shooting the offender, most of 'em wouldn't know what to do with a garden variety police fighter. They didn't sign on for that, doncha know?
Heard all the Federal agents lied on the stand~typical!
The Federal "officers" should now be indicted and tried. I also urge officer Sistowicz to sue the living shit out of them.
jump into a beat car ride around and get your pay check dont do anything it cost the officer and fop close to one millom dollars just to say i work for the dea or fbi fuck them the real police
NEVER !!!!!!!!!! Trust a FED ! He tried to stick it up Craigs ass .
Funny how the media report doesn't say anything about how federal agents were less than truthful in their statements to investigators, to their superiors and while testifying under oath.

Dem Fed-boys are full of S%$T ! Look at the Fed the CPD is stuck with, a liar & COWARD !!
worked w/ swiss in 008, great guy!! fuck these feds
This case was complete bullshit from the beginning;
While I'm glad to see that this officer prevailed, it should serve as a warning to all who work or are assigned to federal task forces, or combined LE investigative units. Everybody out there is NOT your friend, and in many cases, being assigned to these 'elite' investigative units is more trouble than it's worth.
And I know this is beating a dead horse here (no puns intended), but don't forget what happened to the late Detective Joe Airhart. First in the door, left on the floor, by his FED backup.
Sorry,but anybody who voluntarily works with fed punks shouldn't be surprised when they get fucked.
Ladies and gents remember when working with the Feds do everything by the book including all CPD reports. The Feds jammed up Swiss for not doing a TRR.
The Feds are not us. The Fed supervisor on the scene with Swiss was the one who fucked him. The other agents wanted no part of this. The difference is the supervisor threatened the other lower ranking agents if they didn't go along with his version of what happened. The other agents knowing how the fed bureaucrat system works played ball rather than having their careers ruined. The CPD doesn't have nearly as bad of system.
Either this Fed is straight up lying or it has no idea what police work is / involves. Either way this Fed is an ignorant coward who should leave law enforcement to the people who have the knowledge and cajones to do the job.
P.S. As has been stated on here before: “Never trust a Fed!”
How is it against civil rights to strike a suspect being apprehended with a GUN IN HIS PANTS?!
If he's resisting, he's a direct threat to your life. By all means, get that fucker under control!
-Edison Park Resident
Anybody in their right mind who is a CPD officer and wants to work on any task force with any federal agent is really a jagoff. See what happens when you need to make a pinch, use the training you have received, take control of a situation and do real police work in their presence? They turn on you and testify against you. Come on guys and gals stay away from these people and wake up!!!!
Federal Agents lying to sandbag a Chicago Police Officer?!
HOW DARE YOU SIR!
Some Federal Officers lying on statements?
Sure, why not--JFled did it all the time (proven fact) when he went after FBI agents he didn't like here in Chicago and Philly.
A big hearty fuck you to the fed bitch boy that took the side of the shitbird.
What a douche bag.
How were the federal agents less than truthful?
All I know about this case is what's been reported in the media. I discount all the rumors I've heard.
Now it's possible the Fed testified to what he saw and believed happened. Perhaps he missed the lack of cuffs. Perhaps like much eyewitness testimony it's flawed as memories generally suck.
In any case I wish Officer Swiss... well and hope the department deals with the administrative issues quickly.
The fed wasn't lying, he was just running the other way when the PO was making the arrest.
Why the hell would ANYONE work with the Feds on a taskforce? These guys are not your friends. Iam very happy for the PO involved. What a nightmare. Remeber, YOU are the biggest catch for a Fed. Your arrest is more prestigious then any dope dealer,gang banger, or murder offender. Feds don't work the street and are not familiar with everyday danger. This PO SAVED these feds lives. And what does he get for it, a trip to the Dirksen Federal building. What a disgrace.
what was the federal agents name? it should be public record, how can one look that up themselves?
now lets see how long it takes for the department to send this officer back on the street--- he also may have to contend with administrative issues--- when you deal with the department at this level professionalism goes right out the window and it comes down to a personality contest---- if they don't like you they just jack with you a little more.....
No good deed goes unpunished in the CPD. Bust dangerous dope-dealing psycho gang bangers, your reward? Get INDICTED! Just great leadership. Decisions made on Political-Correctness and politic-ing, no what's right and logical. INDICTED. CHARGED WITH CRIMES. SIMPLY AMAZING. Keep working hard for the police-hating democrat City of Chicago/CPD Leadership.
Great job Craig, some really do appreciate it. Now sue the shit out of all who screwed you, and stay smart anddon't do shit on the job anymore, it's all the Democrat re-distribution ow Wealth scam. You, the working copper[s] ARE one of their targets. Their allies are judges, attorneys, states attorneys, trial lawyers, etc; and non-street police administrative police brass, bent on the destruction of good law enforcement officers everywhere. The are the Socialists who have silently crept into our system. They are everywhere, and are bent on destruction of America.
Will the government now indict their own employees for perjury and providing false statements to the investigators? They should.
I sat in one day at the trial and I thought Dean Polales did a wonderful job in discrediting the government witnesses.
Swiss is a great guy, family man, let this be a lesson to ANYONE working these details with the feds, one minute they are having a beer with you, next, they will indict you, that it how they are taught from the start....they are loyal ONLY to the government...GOD BLESS YOU SWISS AND YOUR FAMILY!!
It amazes me of how many idiots line up and burn phone calls to work on a sooper cool feeb task force. F*ck that, not only do you have to worry about the shitheads, but a two faced fed looking to jam up a copper for their advancement.
They threw swiss under the bus and they'll do it to someone else.
They view us as uneducated buffoons.
You work for a lying Fed and you are amazed by this? Thank god the Officer was cleared not everyone are sheeple.
Sounds like that officers civil rights were violated by the less than truthful agents and the offender. What goes around comes around!
Congrats Swiss
Any Chicago Police Officer who works with or is thinking about working with the Feds on any task force should read the stories of Det. Joe Airhart Jr. and Officer Craig Swistowicz.
You think you are hot shit being a CPD Officer running around on that bank robbery or fugitive or drug task force?
No, you are EXPENDABLE.
You are the local population and they are the foreign army, they are on career paths, you are just a Chicago cop, they look down on us, they think we are all poorly trained, poorly disciplined and something to be thrown to the wolves in times of trouble.
Do NOT do it! Don't work with these maggot lying backstabbing Feds.
I have to make a comment, I see a lot of people on here saying people aren't "our friends". It's not about friends or enemies it's about people having commonsense. I don't want friends, I have friends, I want people to get their heads out of their asses and use their brains. This is a dangerous fucking job and at some point people have forgotten that.
Congratulations, Officer! Hold your head high and know that we support you! Stay safe!
006th District PO
Let's see the media control arm of Daley Inc. rummage through the feebs underwear drawer the same way they do when a member of CPD is in the spotlight.
Every one of those feebs who lied on the stand should be on the fucking 10:00 news being perp-walked into the MCC along with j-fled while wearing pastel colored paper jump suits and all of them with that famous "I just shit on myself... Really really hard!" look on their faces.
The feds only want local L.E. on these task forces for the same reason as what happened to Swiss...
A deflector and expendable component for when shit goes sour.
Every copper on a task force should just walk the fuck away. The feebs know every damn thing about Policing anyway. Just ask j-fled.
(R.I.P Joe Airhart. Fuck you j-fled & feebs for leaving our BROTHER behind. That dirty cocksucker Salley should be rotting in hell courtesy of CPD gunfire and you bastards know this! Mad dogs get put down... Period. No questions, no negotiation! Get the fuck out of our lane if you can't drive!)
The
Feds are taught totally different rules of engagement, this is fucked up when you are on these task force with these feds. This asshole who testifed against this copper should be sued personally, since the Feds will laugh it off as nothing, it was only some low life local copper. Fuck these Task Forces because you start thinking like these goofs and become one, like the Stockholm Syndrome.
Remember, it is just like the street. When you run with the GD-Feds, you are the shorty. You mule the product, are fronted, do the physical stuff and the shooting. And are given up when the shit hits the fan. Stay with your own gang
i sure hope swizz didn't have to re-mortgage his house to pay for his defense.....
most times with federal charges, even if you win, you really lose. :(
OT: In an earlier post of "ASA Alvarez is not your friend" comments were made about her having her Public Integrity Unit look into and reopen excessive force cases from the last 5 years. Appeared to be a rumor but after reading the Sun Times today it appears to be true The unit searched Maywood Police HQ regarding a case from 2007 involving one of their Sgts that shot and killed a man during a drug investigation.
I am glad the officer was vindicated, but I cannot for the life of me understand why any CPD cop would work on an outside task force.
If you want to work for the feebs, then why don't you sign up to work for them instead of being an outsider working with them?
If FBI agents were assigned to work with me, I would not even speak to them because I would never trust them. I would not go out of my way to help them because I do not care about them. I have no doubt that they feel the same way about me.
If this happens to another CPD cop on some detached task force, I have no pity you. After this fiasco, you should have seen it coming.
I think you kids are finally geeting it.......
Never, Never Ever trust a fed....
God Save the CPD.......
God Bless the United States.....
We all seen how well the task force gig worked out for Joe Airhart? RIP Joe
Officers and citizens--do not chastise our federal agents so severely. After all, these are the fine folks who brought us Waco and Ruby Ridge. And, I dare say, all without laying hands on any suspect.
I would love to go on and on about why the FEDS are useless and never trustworthy. Along with pointing out all the tragidy that the FEDS have caused CPD officers over the years. The examples and false arrests are many, but this is Swiss day and I am extremely happy for Swiss. Great guy that you can always trust. Stayed positive through out and I am happy that the truth prevailed. Congrates SWISS!!!
I hope he sues the Federal Government, and all agents involved that lied and framed him; false arrest, defamation of character and civil rights violations!!
Parra, hmmmmmmm let's see, any relation to Capt. Art Parra???? Just asking...
The DEA agent committed perjury and admitted lying in the past where I'd Jody demanding the Fed be investigated and arrested. Typical Jfraud one way street the DEA agent lied and was caught lying but Fitzgerald doesn't give a shit.
The good guys in this saga are Dean Polales and Mike Ficaro. They did an excellent job in defending Swisto.
Oooooooooohhhhh. Nnnnoooooooooo
Polales is ok, but ficaro? A dally hack if ever there were one. Former ASA. Heavy as whaleshit. Not much to watch in the courtroom. The facts won this case! Not the lawyers.
It's great to see Swiss cleared of everything. There was more then just one rat Fed involved in this. One of the RATS was once CPD for a couple of years prior to going over to DEA. Those of us that have worked with him know what type of person he is you cann't trust him. He RATTED out his boss. Quantico must have changed him. Everyone that goes to work on these task forces you need to be careful and remember they are FEDS. GOD bless Swiss and his family.
First off Tobias did hurt Swiss....he should of said the same shit the state and fed use of force expert said!!! One fed punk doesn't make em all bad they do have some good guys...just like one bad SOS guy or Finnegan shouldn't make all of us look bad (i think you would all agree)....case was total shit from the word go and the AUSA knew it....congrats swiss....alot of feds sat everyday to support him cuz they knew the fed punk was full of shit and tryin to save his own ass...it was nice to see those guys show up and support us!!!!
Just listen when J-Fled Pinacchio makes statements and see how truthful they are. I believe it is the blood to lie. They are not stand-up, will through you under the bus in a heart beat.
Fuck you FBI dick-bags! You owe your lifes to this Chicago policeman's actions. You'll never be the police. You'll never be respected!!!!

I say to every Police Officer work. But don't put your self in jeopardy.
So what is up on fox news monday at 9pm? A juicy bit of info you might want to look into......................................
Congrats on getting your life back, Swiss.
Get your stories straight.
It was a DEA guy-not a FBI guy.
Rumor has it that the DEA guy was granted a transfer to South America b/c no one would work with him after all of this happened.
First off Tobias did hurt Swiss....he should of said the same shit the state and fed use of force expert said!!!
________________________
Wrong. Tobias called by USAtty but gave helpful testimony to Swiss; also came back and testified for Swiss on TRR issue
What breaking news is happening on monday??
Any officer who works with the FEDS has to be crazy. You do the police work, all of the dirty police work. They supply the analysts and some intelligence, that's it. Remember: FEDS don't get their hands dirty with real police work, mainly because they don't know how. They ran away when one of our own was shot and left for dead. And they will turn on you in a minute.

What about everybody left to rot at 376 for pure politics?
What about every copper past, present and yet to come who was/will be railroaded by IAD, IPRA and CCSAO in addition to the alphabet soup of feds?
We hope to see the day when a whole bunch of people are swinging from the same scaffold they joyously built to dangle Police Officers from.
It's as if Chicago Policemen collectively stand accused for planting and watering the knotty pine and forging the nails used for the Crucifixion.
We're literally being chased down and hunted in the streets just for wearing a blue suit with brass buttons.
Make yourselves hard targets. If they can't find coppers to hurt they'll focus more on Daley Inc.
...What about Cozzi indeed!
22 Tact did a search warrant in disrict with the feds and for the feds about 8 yrs ago. 22 did the entry and the fng feds stood in the street with rifles looking pretty. Didn't expect any different. I figure the were watching to see if CPD fucked up.

Who runs DEA...City, State, County or Fed?
It should be pointed out that one of the expert witnesses who testified for Swis, (free of charge by the way) is retired FBI who has 2 sons on CPD. So, while it may be a good idea to keep Fed agents at arms length unless you know better, they certainly aren't all bad or all against us.
Some wrote that:

Let's get the facts right, the SGT who was assigned to the team at the time did not do the TRR. The SGT is still assigned to a HIDTA team. what is going on there? One of the agents who was a RAT and is an ex-CPD missed the gun. If it wasn't for Swiss finding the gun on the bad guy a couple of those agents wouldn't be home today. Thank you Swiss for being a good cop.
Let's get the facts right, the SGT who was assigned to the team at the time did not do the TRR. The SGT is still assigned to a HIDTA team.
If you work on the 2nd floor at Homan Square, it shouldn't be difficult figuring out who this Sgt is. Think H.I.D.T.A. Sgt who WASN'T recently promoted. No surprise to this Homan Square veteran.

The Feds are totally Polictically motivated, and no longer a credible Law Enforcement Organization. Them and their little Gold Badges are now a symbol of the gone wild Political Correctness in Law Enforcement, not true impartial Justice for ALL. A perfect example is their one-sided Hate-Crimes Law Enforcement in the U.S.A. Totally one-sided and disgraceful. These weasels deserve NO respect from any real Cops or Military personnel. They are total tools of the Current Police-Hating Socialist Regime in Washington D.C.
The newly elected Republican House is fully expected to straighted this crap out immediately, or they can be out the door too, just like the DemocRATS they replaced. RESTORE AMERICA !

If you don't stand up to something, you'll lay down for anything.

Not exactly true. The order says any member who uses force will complete a TRR. Does not separate on-duty, off-duty, detailed, etc. Any member. There are no exemptions listed. If the involved officer cannot complete it, the supervisor is responsible for completing it.

Were the FEDS named in the search warrant? If they are not specifically written into the search warrant, they CANNOT go in! They are not covered as peace officers unless written into the warrant. If its an ongoing case, the Feds may not want the bad guys to know they are being investigated. Therefore, they can't be named in the search warrant. Sorry if that simple explanation doesn't fall in line with your "all feds are chicken shit moronic assholes out to fuck over cops" theory.
The feebs supposedly cut a deal with Parra to testi-lie against Swiss. Parra was looking at doing damn near a life long stretch at Club Fed.
If this shit is true then we certainly expect for some federales to pay CPD style freight.
How many other back-door deals with lying dogs were cut so the feebs can point and laugh at coppers as they swing in the wind dangling from the hangin' tree?
You funky-assed bastards!
We will bet you j-edgar's long dead & decayed ass that the DEA agent was sent away on a looooonnng term south of the Equator assignment so as to avoid DOJ oberfurhers from having to answer hard, cold, awkward and pointy like a muthafuckah questions.

OK, thanks, that clears that up. Thanks for the FOP legal defense fund.
The TRR was not done because as a member of a Fed Task Force you follow their rules..... the City has a Letter of understanding with the FEDS besides that is a dept. issue not a criminal one........... if you were so interested in what happened you should have been in court watching it it went on for two weeks No excuses if you did nt aT LAST SHOW UP ONE DAY....... AT TIMES THERE WERE MORE FEDERAL AGENTS IN THE COURT ROOM FOR SWISS THAN US.......................
Got the facts from the horse’s mouth;
1. An agent missed the loaded hand gun on Jose PARRA who had first contact with PARRA. Swiss being a good cop found the gun after the agent leaves Swiss with PARRA without searching him. Those of us who have worked with this agent knows he’s a crying bitch!!! And was ex-CPD!!!
2. The DEA Supervisor sent PARRA to the hospital and PARRA was cleared by the hospital doctor.
3. The following day PARRA is transferred to MCC downtown, where the MCC doctor sends a referral to DOJ/OIG about a possible miss conduct. FYI….DOJ/OIG pays for referrals.
4. Swiss did not know if he needed to do a TRR. HOWEVER, the SGT assigned to the HIDTA team was give all of the paperwork and was asked should a TRR be done here and the SGT just blows it off. BIG MISTAKE
5. During the DOJ/OIG and DEA/IA interviews the DEA agents began to RAT out each other. The word from downtown is that all of the agents are going to get days off. As they should for being RATS. The team was broken up and all of the agents were transferred to different teams. Do not trust the FEDS!!!!!
Good job Swiss and keep your head up!!!
You were wrong, I corrected you. Get over it.

No one is holding you responsible for the sniper, but you do seem hot under the collar about it. Does it bother you when someone on a police blog you're trolling on points out that you feebs aren't as perfect as you like everyone to believe?
Now what about Airhart? Better yet, don't respond. No cop wants the feeb version.
God Bless you Swiss your a great copper,a good friend and great family man! Please never ever do any macho shit,the 1st and the 16th family first everything else fuck it!
Real cop? More like a bitter old woman gossiping about something she knows nothing about. You're holding me responsible for what some sniper in Idaho did almost 20 years ago? Do I blame you for every "fuckup" ever committed by local law enforcement? That would be moronic. You were wrong, I corrected you. Get over it.
FBI dickbag who doesn't want a pass
Yeah all that might be well and true, fedboy, but the FBI still gave us J.Edgar Hoover.
AND Jody P. Weis.
Whoever taught you guys management and leadership in Quantico ought to be fired and indicted for treason.
Name the movie "While would someone claim to be a Federal Agent who isn't"

The Untouchables; Sean Connery in an unforgettable Oscar winning CPD role, and Kevin "Waterworld" Costner, playing a bland Fed.
Life imitates art.

Weiss is our fault. Who hired him? You mnetion Hoover. Look at the history of CPD superintendents. CPD brings heat on themselves. Do not lump everyone into one group. I am sure FBI are embarassed by Weiss. We all have our problems. Someone should be indicted for lack of leadership in CPD.
To the FBI dick-bag that wants no pass on this one:
The vast majority of the CPD is comprised of good, honest, hard working cops that know their job well, and do it on a daily basis. CPD has a very small minority of "bad apples" as with all organizations.
The FBI, and other Fed L.E. agencies are filled with a majority of punk bitches with guns and badges that parade around as some sort of elite force, when in reality the are nothing more than glorified "after the fact" investigators with an unlimited budget and ZERO sense of reality on the mean streets of any big city. The decent FBI guys are a very small minute minority in a sea of college educated pricks that act like they were born and bred in Ohio!
The sole reason all you Fed Fucks go after us, is the exact same reason a chicken-shit copper sits on an intersection watching car loads of shit-head gang-bangers drive by in a car with no plates, riding 4 deep, only to stop that soccer mom in a mini van to give her a ticket for turning right on red!
Get it? Most of you Fucks are lying spineless cowards, pencil neck paper pushers parading as Law Enforcement. Most Chicago Cops are brave hero's doing the nuts and bolt, dirt, nasty street policing that keeps you're sissy ass safe in your fortress on Roosevelt!

look here, federal fellow, are we gonna go back n forth all day bout this?
Yeah we had Supt's that suck. But at least they only destroyed the dept, and not the country, like J edgar did.
And if it wasn't for the FBI, Weis would never have been in law enforcement and we wouldn't have been stuck with him.
You guys really do Quantico proud.
When you are the real police you will face different kinds of obstacles which include the J-fled club who will always wonder what pumps through the heart of the real police.
Let me say this we never run, we stand face to face in the eye of danger and we are always there to support our fellow real police officers.
Anon was quoted to say:
Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst, a spark that creates extraordinary results.
Congrats and be safe
Wishing you and you'r family the best Swiss...(You'r old 861 team)

More like a number of someones. The lack of leadership has been appalling. And tragic. If the shit hits the fan there is no supervisor on my watch whose orders I would follow without question. They are all bumbling individuals who would be feeling their way through. None are former military. I would form up with the former Army & Marines among us and use individual initiative. Highest military rank would be the leader.
But these sergeants and Lt's? No fucking way.

No. He's showing the huge double standard between local law enforcement and the Feds. Lon the sniper was suspended for 15 days for shooting an unarmed woman in the back. Cozzi slapped a piss drunk and is doing hard time. There is your difference a-hole.
As being a CPD member who was recently assigned to assist the FBI with the TVL round up a few days ago let me say this. I have never seen so may 20 years old college nerds thats couldnt fight their way out of a paper bag. They only had Arrest Warrants for the offenders and no search warrants for thier residence. They wanted to knock and announce and if no response make forced entry, guessed who they tried to trick into knocking down the doors? Yes CPD, we politely told them it was thier show and we were only here to assist. Then they tried again by claiming not having enough tools to breach multiple tools. Again we offered them them our balistic shield and tools to use reiterating that we would not be knocking down any doors. Upon making entry they got consent to search the residence and not one CPD helped with the search,why? Because we dont trust none of those yellow belly feebs! Just for your information Mr. Fed commenting here, the next time you see a REAL POLICE OFFICER looking at you with a look of awe, he is really thinking of how much of a PUSSY you are and remembering what you guys did to Detective Airhart!
NEVER TRUST A FED!!!!!!!
Fuck the pussy FBI and all the other pussy feds. You're known around the world as a pack of prima dona ass wipes who don't want to get their hands dirty doing real law enforcement work.
I'll take a seasoned big city cop over one of those little sissies any day. I guess you fed assholes would too; that's why you create task forces to get the job done so you can take the credit for the hard work of the cops that are stupid enough to go there.
Any cop falling for that task force crap ought to have his head examined. This is a perfect example of why you NEVER TRUST A FED.
They have no honor, no loyalty and no balls. Case in point, J-Fled.
Here endeth the lesson.

NOW THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT!
We would have loved to see with our own eyes how "smooth to death" you and your partners played the the feebs.
"Onward for the greater glory of the Bureau!"
Heh... You first. Suckah!
The more coppers invest into being hard targets, the better.
No doubt the federals were looking real crazy. O_o?
They'll have every opportunity to look even crazier when they realize they have much more of this hands off treatment coming.
They wanna play "get the bad guy" in Chicago they can kick their own doors and provide their own security. Comedy ensues when the catered to constituents call IPRA to get a cr# on the feds. The request CPD supervisor calls and rev'run/alderfool nasty-grams to the district regarding the federals promises to be real funny shit indeed.
"Who dey say dey wuz? Oh, dey wasn't po-leece? Can ah still git a numbah on dey ass? I gotta call WHO? Fuck dat shit, my phone don't dial numbahs dat high. Bitch! *click-beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep*!"

Hey, MR REAL POLICE OFFICER-
Let me get this straight-
You didn't help kick in the door.
No assistance on the search...
How about transport/interview of the prisoner?
I guess its safe to assume you didn't have anything to do with the wiretap or the investigation leading up to the arrest of the over 100 TVL gang members...
So your "assistance," Mr. REAL POLICE OFFICER, consisted of commenting on the incompetance of the nerdy yellow bellied FEEBS...
You should be very proud of yourself. Especially since this case started as a result of the shooting death of Sgt Soto.
Next time, PLEASE, take your "assistance" elsewhere!
Mr. Fed
