Code 049 Back?

We thought the Department had discontinued Code 049 except in very specific circumstances. What's all this then?
  • Scc how is it that the president of the wta (KB who is now detailed to intelligence) can be a WTA exhibitor at the Las Vegas "Shot Show", taking pictures with Matt Hughes (UFC) and Steven Segal WHILE BEING CARRIED CODE 49 by the department. Explain to me exactly what intel she is gathering and why my taxes are paying for it when I can't get code 49 to attend training at the academy. This is criminal. They are slick though, they haven't approved the A & A's yet. Sitting in preliminary waiting to see if there is any fallout first. Welcome to the unit Barbie Doll.
We recall a comment posted months ago about members of the Pipe & Drum bands not being allowed to be Code 049 for a trip that honored slain police officers in another jurisdiction. It must be nice to be connected to J-Fled, Ray Ray and Masters (Masters Masters) so you can run an outside organization on Department time and not have to burn through time due, all while on the taxpayer's dime.

Sorry to say, this is how the bosses on this job kiss these "hotties" asses.

Perhaps a dime should be dropped to all the appropiate media types on this one. It is BULLSHIT that are tax dollars are being wasted on this.

Is the department paying any extra for this? Transportation? Set-up fees etc ?

Jimmy John's goes "Code 049" wait, what?


---clip---

* Quinn was asked about the decision by Jimmy John’s founder to leave Illinois because of the income tax hike. He said he hoped that wouldn’t happen and then went on and on about why the tax hike was necessary and temporary. He also talked about the new companies coming to Illinois and said, “We’re the capital of the Midwest, let’s not sell ourselves short… I’m not ever gonna bum rap our state. We have the best of the best and we always will.”

…Adding… Treasurer Dan Rutherford was on WLS AM just now talking about Jimmy John’s [The company’s founder contributed $100,000 to Rutherford’s campaign in the last election cycle]. Rutherford said he talked to the founder just before the show, and predicted that the “dramatic” tax hike would effect other companies. Rutherford said the owner was also upset about the state’s minimum wage increase.

* The governor was also asked about this story…

The acting Director of the Illinois State Police is out of a job.

Jonathon Monken was appointed to the post by Governor Pat Quinn in March 2009 but never received Senate confirmation.

OT: New Illinois gun legislation aims to ease regulation

In the 10 days since U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was shot in Arizona, nine firearms-related bills have been filed in the Illinois House of Representatives. Their aims range from amending the process and requirements for registration of handguns to allowing registered owners to carry concealed weapons. All nine bills relax gun regulations, and all nine have the support of the Illinois State Rifle Association.

Illinois and Wisconsin are the only two states that do not allow concealed carry.

State Rep. Brandon Phelps, D-118th, filed the Family and Personal Protection Act, a "shall-issue" law that would allow adults who complete certification to conceal firearms

Maybe she is "hot" for "a cop" and that is what you MEANT to say....


Trust me, she is NOT hot. She is not a bad looking person, and I do not want this to become personal, but get out a little bit more and you will see "hot".

I am sure if the bosses think she is hot it is because they have "rank". Funny how so many stripes and bars start making a person better looking on this job.

I saw on Fox showing off the WTA last year.

My question is, if she was an inside person with the Policy Group, why was she allowed to take up a valuable spot in Carbine Training Program which has limited spots open for field officers.

My guess would be just like Ray Ray, to further their own personal agenda. She needed this class to carry the M4 to start up this joke organization so she would look good for the cameras holding a big bad rifle. I believe this is not a branch of the CPD but more like a club.

She looks like the Barbie series called Chicago Swat. And Ray Ray is Ken.

Both are such a jokes and have damaged their reputations by selling their souls to the Weis era that will be confined to HQ do eternity when Wesi leaves!

Does anyone know if Masters was trained with the M4?

Definition of CODE 049:

Code "049" is placed on the Attendance and Assignment sheets and allows the sworn police officer to attend things like Union Meetings which are allowed by contract for union trustees etc.

HOWEVER, the union (FOP or PBPA) is supposed to reimburse the department for the days pay.

KB is a WTA "trainer" as you say because she was able to go to Michigan (also code 49 and in her company car) for a week long training to become a shooting trainer (even though she shoots like shit). Either way, the Womans Tactical Association (wta) is a private business founded by KB and run on company time. This post is not at all being critical of the organization, they offer good training and an opportunity to network with other like minded police officers. The problem is the department paying her to take pictures with celebrities and play with guns in Las Vegas. She, and her Commander should be dumped.

Funny this should come up. Word is from the tower that both Weis and his little ball warmer 3M carry the M4, and have even cruised our mean streets together with them on occasion. But neither has qualified with the Dept. mandated M4 Carbine program....what do you think of that? Just suppose 3M's tiny, booger-infested trigger finger got shaky, and somebody went down, and records were checked. What would RayRay say?

First BH gets rewarded for doing Jack shit in the Policy group and sent to Narcotics and now KB gets to go to the Intelligence unit. Must be nice to have no clue on how to be the police and get rewarded. Weis/masters = joke!

The Shield Team is asking for money from us to support them. Hey "Clout Boys & Girls" wait till your in office to start spending our money for your cause. How about that deal they made with Pat "Clout" Camden how much of OUR money did they offer him already. Vote for Shield and watch you money disappear.

-----------------------
Let's be fair - Greg Bella and citywide are going to a PR firm if elected to be the FOP spokesperson know Greg can't put a sentence together. According to Trustee Kevin Graham, citywide tried to get Pat Camden, but he refused to work for them. He also said hiring a PR firm will be expensive. Have you heard those FOP commercials on the radio? Who even listens to the Drive? The commercial sounds like Bill Doughtery made it in his garage with Sid Davis on sound effects.

What the problem ,a female po in 005th district was told to burn her time by the Great Moron who retired last year on days. The po is a great worker in the schools,but they made her burn all her time cu,per,furl,and baby furl to assist with her husband who has cancer and on dialysis. Fuck this city 3years to go and out. The cmdr sec and district sgt manager made sure she used her time.Douche Bags.We arent like we use to code 49 bs.

------

I know a few PO's that have sick spouses and don't ask for diddly squat. Maybe some time due if necessary, but it's their time.

Not that I'm not sympathetic to the girl in 005, but if we all got "taken care of" when somebody is I'll, that wouldn't be very fair-now would it?

Code 049 exists but it's extremely limited. Karen is actually a trainer with WTA so she would be allowed to get it. In all honesty, she does a lot for WTA. And contrary to popular belief, they have male members as well.

Dont even attempt to justify this w/ bs. Some people on this job are just self promoters. And a "trainer" in what? What experience? Go away!
Your logic is because some husbands and boyfriends are members
we are to believe WTA is great, right

Who are you all kidding. This sh*t has been going on since creation w/CPD. If it bothers you that much than do something. Change is at your own disposal. Get some balls and do something or stop freakin whining. Typical CPD, half the department does nothing but b*tch and moan while the other half actually does their job. At least 20 years ago cops in this city had a little fidelity for each other.

Big scandal at the CPD:

I heard that KB got a DC from EB who then gave it to MT who left it in the office of BC. Then JW gave KB a BLT. But, EBtold JB that ZZ was getting some QT behind the old HQ so JW put ZZ on KP.

At best this is simply a theft of public funds by KB and her Commander who authorized, then concealed the theft.

If this is true that jody detailed KB to intelligence, then we want to know if she submitted an application, resume, writing sample and two letters of recommendation - as required when job openings were announced in December.

AND the interviews were just held in intelligence over the past two weeks. So how fair and transparent is Jody's system?

AND if she is the worldest greatest female tact officer, WTF would she be doing in a covert unit?

The reason YOU aren't denied 049 is because you're dispensable. No one would even realize an academy person is gone. With no one there to train, you could be gone for weeks before anyone noticed.

Why aren't academy personnel assigned to the street when there aren't any recruits (or so few recruits it doesn't matter, anyway)?

Your pampered, protected rear end should get out here and see what it's really like, before you try to teach somebody what you THINK it's like.

I've been on over 20 years working the streets on the southside. Yes I am the police but until this blog mentioned it I didn't know KB nor do I care to. I don't know what the fuck the WTA is and don't care. And actually don't know what code 49 is because I've never used it or asked for it. I used my own time due to take off for personal reasons.

Actually, we ARE detailed to the streets for holidays and OPY missions. I can only speak for myself (Acad Range and an outlying range...) but Monday thru Friday, if we don't have in service classes we're looking for people to qualify. Area___ range is a very busy place and we very rarely turn away shooters. So before you generalize on ALL instructors, the range stays busy!

This is completely VOLUNTARY on her part, yet gets "carried" all year round for planning a running event. As much as many believe it is for a good cause, this should be on her own time, NOT city time. If Phil C. wants all this work done by her, then he should pay her for her work from the memorial or she should be volunteering pro bono on her OFF time. Everybody knows this, but nothing is said..... the city-paid car with gas is more icing on top. Just how many investigations did she actually do as a detective last year? Your tax dollars at work.

If I worked for a charity during my work hours, I would be in callback now paying an attorney trying to get my job back.

WTA is not part of the Department and therefore she would not qualify for Code 049. I am not aware of her actually training anybody in the department or WTA. She has brought in some trainers for several different classes, which I suspect the department may have picked up some of the associated costs. I am also 80% certain that the WTA had the department purchase tactical clothing for WTA members. Code 049 incidentally, is nearly impossible to get at the District level. I tried several times to go to New Mexico Tech while assigned to a district, but no luck. The training is 100% paid by DHS, including airfare, and still the D.C. would not agree to Code 049. Once in a unit, there were fewer hassles and I was able to attend. BTW, New Mexico Tech is worth attending even if you have to use your own time. Hotel, plane, rental car, and per diem provided by DHS.

It's worse that that. I wont burn my source, but I work in a neighboring suburb and one of my jobs is meeting with some of the uniform reps for our uniforms. I've had two of them tell me that KB told them that she and her "Superintendents group" were doing all the uniform testing for the CPD. The guys said they gave her several thousand dollars worth of gear and uniform pieces to test. Over a year later nothing had been done, and when they kept finally asking what was going on, they were passed to the actual person who does the uniform testing.

The company reps said they were burned by KB for all the gear, and that KB has a reputation in their industry as someone not to deal with.
