Beyond the Celebrations
The whiskey and scotch are flowing tonight. We're actually drinking with the curtains open and the lights on in the bunker tonight. Every hour or so, we're peeking into the yard to make sure J-Fled isn't lurking in the alley while we enjoy a celebratory drink. We don't even care that we've got court in the morning.
Now begins the process of picking up the pieces. And unfortunately, there seem to be quite a few of them missing. We aren't even sure if the damn thing can be put back together again.
Question #1 - who takes over now? Hillard is a stop gap. A memory of somewhat happier times (notice we aren't saying perfect times) in most coppers' minds. But who is left who can actually run the department from those days? Most of the current top brass is a joke. The skeletons in these closets are rattling around just begging to be let out. They sold their souls for a gold star and in turn, certain events were overlooked.
Question #2 - who gets demoted or disbanded? J-Fled created how many extra exempt spots? We've got more Chiefs, Deputy Chiefs, Assistant Deputies, etc than ever before. We've got more specialized units, a large number of which are redundant, draining patrol, increasing response times, being utilized for all sorts of crap that has nothing to do with actual crime prevention.
Question #3 - what programs get shit-canned? In our opinion, all of them. Start from scratch. Too much of what's going on is useless number generating and has no impact aside from some useless gold star claiming "my numbers are better than your numbers." You want numbers? Go back to index numbers and head counts, but be honest about it. Stop dressing it up. You want crime to go down, lock people up that need to be locked up and back your officers.
Serious issues for next administrations, both city and department. Where to go, what to do. Opinions?

"we're peeking into the yard to make sure J-Fled isn't lurking in the alley"
Hard to lurk with a head that big. I mean, come on... you wouldent notice the Goodyear blimp in the yard?
Yeah, Emanuel wants a Sup "who is interested in community policing." CAPS again, and again, and again, won't die...
How about "community policing," we drive around the community and listen to handwavers and chase the radio and see what we can do?
Huh?
Have a snort for me...
First Jfled, next Hizzoner his miserable self.
Even Emanuel isn't Daley.
Hillard was Chief of Dets before he became Supe, make Chief of Dets Tom Byrne the next Supe. He's articulate & can speak in complete sentences, maybe that makes him overqualified?
Question #2 - who gets demoted or disbanded? J-Fled created how many extra exempt spots? We've got more Chiefs, Deputy Chiefs, Assistant Deputies, etc
-------
Pay em their non-exempt pay...
and a stipend to it and then they are entitled to ONLY a pension on the LT. or CAPTS pay!!!!!
GOLD BRAID pension problem SOLVED!!!!!!!!!!
"Opinions?"
We'll all have better opinions tomorrow.
Drain that tumbler (Hallelujah!) and go get some sleep.
I don't know about a lot of others, but we'll come out OK, day by day.
Without Mayor Daley, either...
You know, I think deep down Emanuel is at least half scared of this job. He saw Chicago bring down another outsider. You could lose a finger or, or, or something! Let's all do what we can to keep it dat way, over by dere.
We don't even care that we've got court in the morning.
-------
sucker!!
I AIN'T got court because I AIN't lockin up NO ONE and AIN'T writing a ticket
Off topic....you have a shout out on Chicago breaking news SCC!
http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/news/local/ct-live-0302-chicago-code-20110301,0,4070023.column
If the Mayor or Mayor Elect wants to take a bite out of crime they would stop all this BS and lobby to keep repeat criminals behind bars. We do our part the jails have more early release programs.
I don't except much from this Department at this point. I think it will take 10 to 15 years for us to turn things around. The public does not support us.
In the academy the left out a justice triangle. Criminals - Courts - Jail. Hard time. The city needs to launch a media blitz and add campaign to win the public back. A policemans word don't mean squat
Ahhhh SCC you are truly timely with this one!
When this begins to be addressed you might want to bust out the the sammitches drinks and chips cuz the best CPD related entertainment is about to begin at 3510.
Bitter crying and group hugging in the halls.
Muffled single gunshots echoing from the executive suites.
The crunch of capsules between gritted teeth.
Frantic phone calls to disconnected numbers.
The sound of deranged, simultaneous crying and laughter.
Involuntary bowel movements broken by cries for mercy as the doors are kicked open.
Shoes on the wrong feet running clumsily on air as the chair falls over.
Screams of dispair as the ground rushes up after an exit from a high window.
Exempt sedans and suv's found with grinning occupants in forest preserves and at the bottom of flooded stone quarries many months after they were reported missing.
Yeah...
The Policeman could use a good belly laugh after this 3 yr experiment in fuckery...
Serious issues for next administrations, both city and department. Where to go, what to do. Opinions?

get real . . .
nothing will change..
CAPS is a great tool for politicians so they can bullshit the public ...
it's a great tool for exempts
because they can bullshit the politicans ..
it's great for the inside COWARDS who took this job because they NEVER wanted to be the real police.
If the new mayor was smart he would pay exempts their NON-exempt pay and give them the extra stipend for being a commander / deputy etc...
THIS would put a stop to the bastards $145,000 a year pensions that we ALL are paying for.
Jackson should either be supt or stay where he is at... some commanders should stay. Gorman from gangs should shoot up like a rocket(possibly one of the best bosses on this job), john Kupczyk(cmdr 008) should move up fantastic boss... leo, well hes ok, I guess he can stay... peterson, harmless where he is at, hes pretty knowledgeable when it comes to the dic's... bea, hopefully your be packing your bags... Earnie Brown, You know you should be sitting in Federal Prison right now with the Housing scandal that was swept under the rug so maybe retire ernie... everyone else, cmdr of mass transit graber should move up, what a great guy and great boss.. everyone else, dump back to lt and bring men up to lead us.
Chief Byrne or Roti, but my money would be on Joe Patterson.
As far as disbanding, I think consolidating would be better. To many units doing the same thing but under a different heading. This would eliminate a few exempt spots and keep a more unified approach to the "mission".
The number one thing that this city can do is to end the sanctuary city status.
Look, it's been reported that we have over 100,000 gang members here and the drug cartels are feeding them all.
In many cases we don't know who they are or where they are and if just 1% of them have ties to terrorist... that my friends is 1,000 people that could take down this city in a minute.
Regardless, don't get caught in the cross fire either when the turf battles hit this spring.
This sanctuary stuff is making a mockery of all our laws. It hurts us financially. It hurts us socially. It hurts us morally.
It has nothing what-so-ever to do with profiling or being a racist.
Hell, yeah sure we all want a better life so why not use that as a defense for everything eh. Those two crew members we just busted for the homicides. Hey, ask them, they were only trying to make themselves a better life. Let 'em out. You know? And the list goes on...
The politicians love the crisis that ignoring problems creates. They can use it for personal gain and job justification.

You people here are all fucking crazy. Everyone cried about having Jody now you are all crying about Shields. WTF ?
Shields may not be great but ain't no fed, punk, bitch, snitch, coward, piece of shit garbage, mother fucker either!!
I'll take Shields over Jody any day but then again I would take my dogs shit over Jody!
3/01/2011 08:45:00 PM
Been reading comments like this about Jody and have been laughing so fucking hard!!! There was a great one about if he's taking his uniform and big hat to cover his alien nonfinite head too. These comments are fucking great. I love police humor. This was the best job in the world and I can only pray that we'll get back to some if those old fun times again. I miss them dearly. Everyone has been on pins and needles with alien head here. It's been the worst time I've had on the job. I took this job to help people and have fun. I can't wait to get the fun back!!
Getting rid of J Fled shows a few things about the City managers.
1. They were aware he was a problem.
2. They cared enough to get rid of them.
But the Shields thing is perplexing. If he gets it, it show They don't understand us. They don't understand what we do. They don't understand why we do this.
" you want crime to go down, lock people up that need to be locked up and back your officers"--- the author of this statement speaks from the heart and means well but lets face it, nobody in patrol believes that anyone has their back or will go to bat for them if they catch a bad beef--- the result is guys laying down doing nothing except the bare minimum--- glad to see that j-fled is gone, he was a poison to the department....
Watch TH bring philly back up here from florida to help straighten crappolla out for 3 months. As a consultant! Probably charging $100 grand each.
Our three year long nightmare is finally over. We can go back to work again. Movers, parkers, arrests, again OK.
Members of the public: better stop for those red lights and stop signs because the hammer is coming down.
And some of those exempt bastards who hitched their wagon to jodypweis, well it would surely be proper if many of them were to be returned soon to their civil service rank shortly before they get their time in as exempt. That would save a lot from our pension fund.
What about their unpaid furlough days? Does that extend the time they would need to be an exempt before qualifying to swill at our pension fund trough as gold braid?
I know of only one DC in A3 who should keep his job, over in 018. New Deputy Chief is in order there too. The rest can start packing.
What I got a real kick about was the way the talking heads described why we had such great distain for the man. Conn-Roper-Magers on WLS yesterday were a hoot. Had us hating him because he was a Fed. Personally, I didn't have that much of a problem with that part of the equation. Those fools failed to realize he lost us with Bill Cozzi. They finally got around to mentioning that after about 15 minutes of pontification of thier intemate knowledge of the police department. Screw all of them - they claim they have respect for us and what we do but that's abunch of bull. Mr. Roe Conn stick to watching reruns of Miami Vice and stay away from us. F-ing Wannabe period stop.
1st step, get rid oof that Predictive Analysis Bullshit. It hasn't predicted anything yet.
Terry Hillard? There is no one in the Whole CPD that could run the Department until the new Mayor installs his puppet? The city is doomed!!!
Level 35th St. to the ground and start all over. Get rid of all the assholes with baggage like DTEB, etc. It makes no sense to reward bad behavior. Lawd help us if Penny gets it. We be prayin' on the cawners Lawd!
Get rid of either TRU and MSF. They both do the same thing.
I would like to feel sorry for Jody Weis. Like most Police Officers, I am a compassionate guy, but I can't drum up any sympathy.
Mr. Weis came into this Department with some mandate to clean it up. Maybe he believed that when he took the job, but he knew that mandate was nonsense after he got here. Unfortunately, he stayed with the party line.
Our problem was with a few connected Officers that thought they couldn't be touched. Drunks, thieves and people that were foisted upon this Department, this City, for the sake of political correctness. Officers that the politicians and connected bosses protected to the detriment of the entire Department.
Mr. Weis then surrounded himself with yes men and sycophants because that's what people in need of reassurance do. Good leaders find good people to challenge them.
Your exorbitant salary was your thirty pieces of silver to dismantle this Department. The second job you were supposed to do was a lie and the fact that you only had it on paper for a few months proves it. Ultimately you were a politicians pawn and I believe you knew that from the start, but like the criminals we encounter, the money was too good.
So goodbye Mr. Weis. I think that deep down in that arrogant mind of yours you know that this has been an embarrassing time for you and the Department. I think that in your heart you wish, almost as much as we do, that you had not taken this job.
I just checked jfled's blog 501, he didnt even give us a goodbye! so long piece of shit...what an asswipe
I think hiring Shields as Supernintendo will continue the downward spiral.
Cant Michelle find him a high paid, do nothing job at Homeland Security counting paperclips somewhere?
Reform in the City of Chicago? Forget it. I hope Rhambo isn't that stupid, but he does have to be loyal to his master.
I guess I'll still do the same thing I did before. Back up every serious call if i'm not doing anything.... Like them or not! EVEN if im the first one there BULLSHIT (I know! I know!) . Stop them if they need to be stopped. [Patrol Genius]
please remember our POW in JFED's dirty war against us: Bill Cozzi.
Gorman and roti? What makes them so great? Because they both realize they have been promoted beyond their capabilities and they surround themselves with workers.....give me a break......anyone that has been promoted meritoriously 3 or 4 times better be able to walk on water, last I checked neither of these guys can.
As Glen Beck would say we need a top down – bottom up approach. Top down; start by making the command staff not so heavy. Do away with a lot of the gold stars. A great majority of the gold stars are incompetent do nothings. Bottom up; have a legit hiring and promotion process. I know a lot of good Sgts., a few good Lts. And one good Capt. These are the people that should have gold stars. To start make, Commander Kupchik [sic] (008) Chief of Patrol.
Mr. Mumbles is back....
How can Terry Hillard work when he is 67 years old when mandatory retiement is 63? A prime example once again of special treatment and the department does exactly wha,t it wants when it wants.
What happened to forcign people out at 63? Terry is 67.
Well, Terry has some kind words for those in patrol to start off this stint:
"They [Weis’ administration] took all the good cops and put them in special sections and units"
In today's Sneed snip in the Suntimes. F'in thanks Terry!
Does it really matter who takes over? "Tiny dancer" needs to remove the politicians from the police department. We still don't have a fair testing system, an fto program and way to many phone calls. who ever takes over the helm of this tug boat of a department it will remain the same. reality check, not to many bosses on this job have ever been in patrol that long. all basses on this job have one thing in common, they made a phone call to GET THE FuCK OuT OF PATROL!!!!
Dear insignificant blogger then news media has the gall to mention you again...
While most TV critics praised the show, some closer to the scenarios it portrays have not. On "Second City Cop," a blog claiming to be written by an anonymous Chicago police officer, most of the comments are sharply critical of the show's procedures and events, including the idea that an "Irish mob" is the big criminal enterprise. A few, however, urge readers to make allowances for the demands of mass entertainment.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/ct-live-0302-chicago-code-20110301,0,631138.column
FUCK YOU JODY AND A TRIPLE FUCK YOU TO MASTERS. Good fucking riddance. Finally, we have a respectable leader/head of this fine department. At least as a beat cop I know Terry Hillard isn't going to run away from a call of shots fired.
You know, I think deep down Emanuel is at least half scared of this job. He saw Chicago bring down another outsider. You could lose a finger or, or, or something! Let's all do what we can to keep it dat way, over by dere.
Emanuel has known for years this job was his...he is going to break this bucking horse..watch and see
Hillard was Chief of Dets before he became Supe, make Chief of Dets Tom Byrne the next Supe. He's articulate & can speak in complete sentences, maybe that makes him overqualified?
3/02/2011 12:57:00 AM
Yes just what we need another Irish boss. Great if you are Irish. Oh you must be. Taken care of his whole career, Tact Sgt in 018 etc. etc La De Da same story.
Word on the street is that 3rd watch Captain Lemmer from 023 has his eyes on filling the position for Superintendent. This guy needs to leave 023 soon before the morale in the district begins to hit rock bottom
Weis sucked the Districts dry.
Zero detectives classes made in his three years.
Slim to none hires of new officers.
Fuck the blue shirts thats all he did.
Joe Patterson would make a great Sup. He is the only person I ever saw other than Spratte stand up to Weis in front of his pussy hand picked command staff of losers. and Joe was 100% correct. Joe Knows this job and is fair.
Patterson, Gorman, Byrne? I think most of you half-wits might have a fatal allergic reaction if you recommended three people who actually passed a promotional examination. What happened to this job...
Now that Fled is gone, I predict...
Nothing will change.
How about bringing back Kushner the former Berwyn Chief? Was a Lt here and did some good over there.
Finally. I can give j fled an honest thank you for something he did and something he does well. Run. And run fast. I suggest you find something to do far from here because I am sure there is a seat for you at traffic court with tickets in hand. For all the disaster moves. They need to go. Start with penny. How do we have an exempt that has taken 30 in the last year with a cb attached. Rousell will probably be gone. He has pissed off every exempt by going over their head directly to big head for approval EB. We all know his drama but seeing how the Feds won't give him security clearance how can he be in charge. He couldnt lead a cub scout pack Ladner is cluless and has cost the city how much money?
People to move up. Gorman. Kennedy. Angorone. Patterson.
Area 3 dc. Gonna take Rahm chief of staff spot
Bring back the Insane Double-Dong-Weilding Clown Patrol!
peterson, harmless where he is at, hes pretty knowledgeable when it comes to the dic's...
you mean the same peterson who kisses jodys ass? that peterson? same peterson who was on jodys transision team? same peterson who backed jody?
naaa, that peterson can go too!
Took a while to come out with the perfect nickname for the Mayor elect but..." Out with Shortshanks,in with Mortshanks"!
Hey maybe Hillard could make a call to the Fed and have Cozi released early...that would boost moral almost immediately, or at least a positive step in a better direction!
The biggest thing that J Fled did that was wrong was wear OUR uniform, he never earned the Right to wear our uniform. J Fled though that he could wear our uniform and be respected. Respect is earnded not given. He also lied to all of us, how many times were we told that in order to go to a specialized unit a resume or interview was needed, chck out last transfer order. If they ask for a resume you are not going it's just something to say they were looking they already have or know who's going there. And last how do keep Command Personnel, who have active CR #s (2) and arrested PH, were the subject of a search warrant on a condo she owned Bea, or no clue on how to Command TC, and why make a Patrolman with under 2 years on the job a Director BG, by the way I bet everyone would like a Blue light camera on the corner where they live Brent.
Bring back Dugan. He has the stones to do what needs to be done and get rid of j fleds left over garbage. He knows this job and stands up for coppers who work which is what we need to do now. We had an excuse for 3 years. Shorty and J Fled are gone. No more excuses. No more whining. No more bitching. The only ones that will get this department back to a happy place is us. This used to be the best job on earth. Bitching everyday ain't gonna get it back. I'm not a Rahm fan by any means but he got rid of our biggest problem. If he doesn't screw our pention worse than it already is then doesn't he deserve a chance. Regardless who he picks as the next boss it will be an improvement (unless it's EB or PT). Shouldn't we make the effort to make this job fun again. I know I am tired of the misery and low morale. I hope we can turn it around soon. 3 years is long enough. I'm ready for better days. Hopefully they are right around the corner
Bring back Phil C, and lets get back to having fun!!!!!!

AMEN!
Emanuel bringing back Caps?...Please tell me he's kidding...never in the department has their been a more useless waste of manpower or shouldI say female power....Please tell me it ain't so....Maybe he'll bring back district managers...another waste of our taxpayers money....Get rid of all exempts appointed by Jfled....start with 1st district and go down the line..
I listened to the Conn/Roeper/Magers show yesterday and it also took them a while to mention how he decimated the District Commanders with about a month on.
He couldn't even have read about their backgrounds in that amount of time, and my big question was "who was pulling the strings" on that big shakeup?
What a goof! He did almost as much damage to the CPD as Terry Gainer did to the ISP.

Q: Does he get to keep his uniform or that pumpkin sized hat that covered that Eddie Munster mongoloid head?
A: He had two matching class A traditional uniform hats.
They will put them on the Lions in front of the Art Institute on St. Jude Sunday.
Here's maybe a bright siade to the recent elections. Daley was very connected down to the grass-roots level. Conecte to people who knew guys on the police force, guys who wanted to get promoted and who used their connections to Daley to get that done.
The Ballerino, on the other hand - his friends are financiers and other very large big shots. They don't know any actual cops short of the guy who wrote them a traffic ticket long ago.
So maybe promotions get more rational, and less clout-y.
That ends our report from the bright side. We now return to our regularly scheduled doom and gloom.
There is a God and he loves working coppers.
How soon before he revamps that cantankerous bunch of clowns at 050/051?
GEU gone
TRU gone thats over 400 po's that include sgt's and 6 lt's
All of the people that JW set up in those goofy units under Chief Daley are gone too. All these officers are going back to patrol to get ready for the summer.
We the tax paying citizens of Chicago are very happy for our Police Officers. It is sad that so many had to pay the price for Daley horrendous error in judgment.
Officer Bill Cozzi, I don't think there are any words we can express to you for what you have been through. Unfortunately your hell will continue thanks to Daly and Weis. I suspect that JFled's departure will only be a small victory for you as JFed still walked away with almost a million dollars of tax payer money and Daley isn't in jail (yet).
For the rank and file, we know you have to put up with the scum on the streets all day long and it had to be hell for the past three years dealing with JFled and his minions. Thank you for hanging in there. More than ever us citizens need you and your service is truly appreciated. We can only hope that things will get better for all of you.
Fuck Beale! That fucker is not in touch with his ward. Crime is not down in his ward or in this City. There have been a minimal of 2 homicide and 6 agg batts in the last 24hrs. I may be under stating the true numbers, because I did not work the entire 24hr.
Do you think that "Moral Survey" we took left in the box with him? I would still like to see how it turned out, and how long ago he should have quit!
See ya Jo-Dee. You know the old adage about the screen door hittin' you in the ass.......
Start with 26 units: Office of the Supt and 25 Districts. Divide all available manpower among the 26 units and add / create only what is truly necessary.
Yes, the reign of the tyrant is over, and his flying monkey is gone. This, in and of itself, is reason to celebrate. But not reason to overreact. The biggest question is who will step into the superintendant role and can they handle it? Do we have someone that could do the job? The answer is a resounding "Yes." Who is this person? I don't have the answer to that, but that person is out there and a current member of this department.
We have had such a repressive work environment for the past three years that the cream has not had the opportunity to float to the top. Many well educated, hardworking coppers have had to keep quiet and kept their thoughts to themselves for fear of either being ridiculed, or being swept aside by the idiots. Now that the idiocy is over, the cream will once again begin to rise to the top.
What we have to do now is be open minded, accepting and supportive of our own. Names will come up, people will throw their hats in the ring and take a chance, and with that a leader will arise. He/she may come from the most unlikely place, some of his/her ideas might be radically different, that person might even be politically connected. But if that person can be a leader and truly lead, it is our obligation to follow.
There is an old Chinese proverb/curse that goes, "May you live in interesting times." The next few months is going to be interesting. When the smoke clears and things settle down, someone will most assuredly be in the top spot. Some of us will be happy with the choice and some will not. Such is life. At this point we can only hope that the true leaders that are out there step up and make themselves known and they are recognized for their abilities and are given the chance to return this department to some semblance of its once proud self.
Want suggestions?
Here are a few to start...
1. Reduce the diluted chain of Command.
way, way, way too many chiefs and clearly not enough injuns.
A. Superintendant who supervises:
Chief of Patrol who handles Ed & Training, Districts (just needs a E/O not a D/C and a Commander), Headquarters staff (ie; Special Events etc.),Canine, Mass Transit, R&D and Personnel along with Mngmt Labor Affairs into one unit,Traffic,no CAPS units period. Increase each District Commanders staff to handle problems related to quality of life or other such issues),Detail unit (executive protection to Mayor only!)never in the history of this city has anyone attempted an assasination on anyone in City Government other than the Mayor.) SWAT, AND ALL OTHER NON INVESTIGATIVE UNITS.
FIVE AREA DEPUTIES WHO REPORT DIRECTLY TO CHIEF OF PATROL. There is no logical explanation or rationalization for the other exempts spots. Eliminate MSF and other like units return them patrol. Gives enough man power to perhaps make a third tact team or other such incident cars. Oversee ARP and M/M too. Return all Gang Teams to District AND DISBAND. Tact teams should be doing that work anyway.
Next
Dep. Chief of Investigative Services, oversees all of Detective Division Operations,IAD(NO DEP.CHIEF OR COMMANDER REQUIRED THERE EITHER), ET'S Organized Crime and Misc. Detail Units, no need for Detective Division Commanders. Each Area will have an E/O who report directly to the Dep. Chief. Lt's on all three watches. Eliminate Gang Inteligence, or Intelligence Unit "redundent"
Keep the Rank of Captain to control watches from ego-manical Lt's
Re-District but do not decrease the manpower... rapid hiring needs to take place. And incentives for Officers to stay longer. Going to need experience to counter the youth movement. Create a liason officer to filter requests, complaints and other such meddling from Aldermen and other political interference. NO NO NO calls from CITY HALL, SPRINGFIELD, WASHINGTON related to EXEMPT APPOINTMENTS, and or PROMOTIONS.
CITY ORDINANCE REQUIRING POLICE DETAIL FOR ALL EVENTS OF CERTAIN SIZE (to wit; ALL SPORTING EVENTS, CONCERTS, FESTIVALS AND so on.) ALL MUST PAY FOR POLICE PROTECTION (offered to P/O's and Sgt's as Special Employment. no need to use tact teams during critical times of the summer to cover these useless events ( no permits will be granted to neighborhoods with high crime... making peer pressure work for us to make these areas eligible for permits in the future... This will have a two-fold affect. Make money for the City, eliminate all these fests and events during the summer that drain police resources. In the current configuration it's a money drain and puts district personnel at risk. WITH NEW SPECIAL EMPLOYMENT YOU WILL HAVE PLENTY OF OFFICERS TO COVER ALL THE EVENTS. ALSO SPECIAL EMPLOYMENT TO WORK RDO'S IN YOUR DIST. OF RESIDENCE OR HOME DIST. DURING 1ST AND 3RD WATCH. USE REVENUE COLLECTED FROM EVENTS TO COVER THAT COST.
Feel free to add your own ideas, suggestions, but this is just some thoughts off the top of my head.
AND BEFORE YOU ALL SAY IT! I KNOW, I KNOW... IT'LL NEVER HAPPEN.
Getting rid of J Fled shows a few things about the City managers.
1. They were aware he was a problem.
2. They cared enough to get rid of them.
But the Shields thing is perplexing. If he gets it, it show They don't understand us. They don't understand what we do. They don't understand why we do this.
3/02/2011 02:02:00 AM
OH BROTHER! Your head is in the clouds. Your #2 is appropriately numbered because it is a big load of #2! If you think for one millisecond they "care" about anything, but making themselves comfortable and sated, you must have landed here yesterday when you fell off a "tarnip" truck from Dogpatch, USA. They do not give a fat rat's ass about any or all of us, except for the connected meritcloutorious. Wake up!
Who cares about the excempts and who gets promoted or demoted or what units get disbanded. Start with your idea at the end "You want crime to go down, lock people up that need to be locked up and back your officers."
Gold Braid pensions have got to stop. The exempt have to stop caring about themselves and start looking out for the patrol officers.
Weis was offered the job of cleaning toilets at Midway Airport for $310,000 a year.
Now don't start talking shit about Hillard just because he is in charge. No matter who gets the next spot your shithead negativity will not accept him/her.
My time has finally cum!
We liked how Hillard put it to j-fled and his band of pantyless cheerleaders by saying though crime may be down, there's more to it than just numbers and stats...
Very well put by a veteran street cop... There is a human element on this side of the crime fighting equation that j-fled and his band of pantyless cheerleaders tried desperately to ignore...
This is the gist of our disdain toward this less than a human and those who gave it (him) material aid and support.
The next big question is what to do with the traitors?
"Hillard was Chief of Dets before he became Supe, make Chief of Dets Tom Byrne the next Supe. He's articulate & can speak in complete sentences, maybe that makes him overqualified?"
Yeah he was articulate when he told the salt trucks not to salt sheridan because it was killing the plants!
Sgt. HAYMAKER'S Family knows how articulate he is.

Y'all read that? Daley said it, Trib published it, it must be true, so you must be wrong. Morale is *not* low!
Haha!
OFF TOPIC BUT IMPORTANT!!!!! It appears that Sgt Tricky from 011 has again tried to put Pos in the "trickybag". The only positive was that these two officers were veterans and knew better. Tricky apparently ordered two Pos to sign complaints for a BS offense. These two officers were nowhere near the location at the time of the alleged offense, in fact, they were across the district and were called to the scene. The location of the offense was covered by a POD camera. Luckily these two officers told Tricky to pound sand and refused to sign them. Tricky is now attempting to make their lives miserable as he does. This sounds like Tricky may have another EEOC complaint on his hands. Stay tuned!
Word form 35th street is there is a possible list circulating around with some exempts names on it and its for them to be returning their gold braids for single LT. bars
A few names on that list included Henney Penney - Rick Flair - A. C. (007). stay tuned for more haha
So what happened to Masters, Masters, Masters? The full story isn't complete...Shields and Glombo in 2011!!!!!!!
jFed spotted in HQ parking lot today peering through the windows. Don't think he was allowed to come in.
Lets see. We are in a huge budget mess and what does Daley do, hire Hillard. Hillard will probably make 10 g's a month. We have a chain of command for this very situation. Every operation does. Like the people or not.
What a fucking idiot. Wasting the citizens dough all the way up till the last day of your crime ridden dictatorship.
Terry Hillard made a deal with the rev's to double all recomended suspensions and he attempted to break the contract many,many times. Let us also not forget that he convicted officers in the media before the investigation.
My point is Weiss and everyone of these guys are assholes who are only out for themselves and will do what ever hatchet job their political master dictates.
There never were any better days when it comes to 95% of supervisors.
More of Daleys irresponsible spending...Why hire Hillard back...Cant one of our Brass handle the Supt. job for three months..Couldnt we save three months Supt. salary since we are in a budget crisis. Wow...
Here is my advice:
1. Reduce the number of exempts. At least 20 should go.
2. Hire. Expedite the testing process even if you only hire small numbers it will be symbolic.
3. Disband some of the redundant units, units that serve no immediate need and bolster patrol. It starts and ends with patrol.
4. Promote, give the troops hope and something to work towards.
5.Identify people that can lead and get people back working. The trust and support system for the working officers is gone and has to be re established.
Yeah, Emanuel wants a Sup "who is interested in community policing." CAPS again, and again, and again, won't die...
--The next sup is Shields because he is the cuzin of Michelle Obama
at first i agreed with the majority that bringing terry hillard back was a big FU to the current exempts. But after a day of meditation in the sweat lodge i have changed my thinking.
Naming a interim supt from within would have been a mistake. Let's say they name, Jackson. He makes a bunch of necessary changes, Rahm steps in and names someone else Supt, Jackson is now screwed.
So more than likely Jackson leaves the status quo and things become stagnent till minimum, May 16th, more likely Jun 1st.
Hillard has no ties, and can dump anyone he wants with no fear of retribution from Daley, the revs, etc..
Of course my revelation is backed up by rumors.
1- a sgt and Lt recently dumped my Masters, are brought back.
2- the executive daily meeting is back on, and oh yeah, Masters is not invited, as he should of never been there in the first place.
3- Roman had his balls cut and has no command decision making powers, although he is still exempt.
Its only been a few hours, and if these rumors are true, Hillard did in a few hours what Weis couldnt do in three years.
"Emanuel has known for years this job was his...he is going to break this bucking horse..watch and see"

Sgt. Herman had his case reversed!!! Watch out Jfled.
Off Topic:
What happens to the money in the payroll when a police officer retires, since the retired officer's pension comes from the pension board, an entirely different source of money?
According to my calculations: for every officer that retires there should be enough money in the payroll for at least 1 1/2 to 2 new hires, to replace retired officer. Since there is no money in the payroll to hire new officers, where has this retired officers former paycheck money gone?
For every 300 retirees the dept should be able to hire 500-600 new hires. Maybe the new mayor could answer this.

Shortshanks is absolutely delusional!
On AM 890 today there's a soundbite of him saying "morale is good" referring to Dept. morale.
Can JFRAUD take this clueless wonder with him? Would Rahm be willing to start a little early?

One is an old-time political hack. One is a young, intelligent man with leadership abilities.
OFF TOPIC BUT IMPORTANT!!!!! It appears that Sgt Tricky from 011 has again tried to put Pos in the "trickybag".
That dude's an A1 jag. Thank God I made it off 3rd watch to 2nd watch. Dam shame, because 3rd watch has lots of really good po's. Too bad they have to suffer through JT and that other bipolar, crazy ass Sgt on the watch.
Why concern ourselves with who the new Superintendent will be. It has already been decided. This department will never be legit. Get over it.
Guess the "Precogs" did'nt see this coming. Oh wait its not to late we could drink the koolaid now before all the old timers on midnights turn us to the dark side.......Oh wait Lord Madigan can't appoint this doofus Chief for life.............lulz
he could go take the police exam ....for a nominal fee of course.
Yet another parting shot -- we're waiting and waiting for the magazine to finally go empty here.
This guy is almost as bad as the obviously psychotic Rod Blagojevich in the "Can't Shut Up About It" category.
Just now on ABC Channel 7 news --
"Weis learned that Chicago can be cliquish, and early on he decided to stop reading blogs that were critical of him."

Oh, the daily lashing that SCC delivered!

It's Burke's detail; they got lost and the GPS is all funny and the pizza is getting cold.
"4. Promote, give the troops hope and something to work towards."
While I agree that the department needs to make some promotions, I don't think that Patrol should be regarded as a place to escape from.
Patrol is the backbone of any police department. The other units are merely support functions to patrol.
Two things need to occur before this idea will take hold:
1) The blue shirts have to
A. Believe it
B. Let everyone else know that they believe it
2) The bosses have to commit to it and act on it
Opening some of the special employment to 9161's only was a first step.
Now we need the follow-through.
rb
check your paystubs you may be a day short. But we know the city would'nt do that they have our best interest at hand......This department is like the old Detroit Tigers stadium before it was destroyed. Seconds before charges went off RATS fled the site like a biblical plague/curse. Now the rats are amongst you trying to make phone calls to empty cubicles.............Aint life a bitch.....But dont listen to the old timers......lolololoollloll

Wrong Tom BYRNE, Dumb Ass.
I have updated Bill Cozzi on recent CPD developments.
He has written a couple of letters to Det. Ed Farley, Cold Case Homicide, who is terminally ill with Stage IV pancreatic cancer, remaining in hospice with a morphine drip for pain. Barring a miracle, the end is near. Pray for Ed.
As you may recall, it was among Ed's dying wishes to help Bill with a $1,000.00 donation to be used at the time of Bill's release, hopefully near year's end if not sooner. Initially reluctant until he learned of the circumstances, Bill has graciously accepted Ed's kind gesture, responding by mail.
Meanwhile, Bill's Petition for a Writ of Certiorari has been denied by the Supreme Court of the United States.
Bill asks that I thank all of you for your continuing letters of support. Keep them coming. They keep him strong. He responds to all mail. He also added "stay safe".
Thanks SCC for getting us through this "active news period."

3/02/2011 09:54:00 AM
Dugan is NOT the answer. He's a guy with loads of issues and he's got a screw loose.
And exactly how far down does your ignorance reach? The "reach 63 years of age and out" does not cover civilian hires. Hillard is a civilian and has been hired as a civilian superintendent, much like O. W. Wilson. But can he carry a gun? Sure, if he has fulfilled all the requirements of IROCC, but if he popped someone while serving as the interim superintendent, he technically would not be indemnified by the city because he is not a sworn peace officer. He cannot be hired as a sworn officer for CPD as he is over 63 years of age.
SCC: Now why in the world would you ashcan my posts regarding the FOP election? No one was mentioned, it was just a last call reminder to get the ballot in. Why on earth would you delete those?
Hey 3:30 , Where did you hear about John Herman ??????? Clue us in .
Since the Emanuel wants a CAPS person, maybe he'll bring back Charlie Ramsey. He practically created CAPS when it was introduced to the Department in '94, then went to head D.C.'s Department when Hilliard beat him out for Supe. Now he's in charge of the Philly P.D.
"Hillard was Chief of Dets before he became Supe, make Chief of Dets Tom Byrne the next Supe. He's articulate & can speak in complete sentences, maybe that makes him overqualified?"

Hey Stupid ass, wrong Byrne!!!!!
Are you that ignorant to think that the Chief of Detectives is the person responsible for salting the streets?
That was the Commish of Streets and San, I know hard to believe that two people in the world could have the same name.
O.T. sort of... Paul Meincke LOVES Weis, for some reason. Instead of asking serious questions, he simply accepts the platitudes spewing from Weis' mouth.
"If morale is truly down,and the usual indicators are, people aren't performing, how did the department achieve these incredible success stories if everybody's demoralized. I, I, I don't see how you, uh, define morale that way."
The full interview is up on abc7Chicago.com. I'm not sure I can stomach watching the whole thing.

Staff the Districts and eliminate TRU and MSF
Terry has served his time well in Chicago. A vietnam vet, worked his way up, shot in the line of duty,and actually locked up real gang members,not like the punks in GEU,TRU,MSF

Why do we have two first deputies? Why do you need Deputy Superintendents to run BAS, or even the Professional Bureau or what ever they are calling it now? Let a Chief do it, fuck even a D/C can do it. Why do the civilian directors get Commanders pay, give then Captains pay. They got rid of the streed deputies give all the civilian ADS positions commanders pay and all the sworn ADS positions can become D/C and put them somewhere in BOS or BIS.
Leo will be the next superintendent, just ask him.

He couldn't even have read about their backgrounds in that amount of time, and my big question was "who was pulling the strings" on that big shakeup?
Peterson was the person most responsible for the mass dumping of exempts when Weis arrived and for the disastrous policies of Weis's first year. He and Weis knew each other from Weis's time as an ASAC in Chicago. Peterson was the only one in Weis' Fed group (Weis, Brust, Daley) who knew CPD personnel and got rid of people he didn't like. He is far worse than any of the Feds because he is CPD and did this to his own. There is nothing more reprehensible and hopefully he gets what he deserves for what he has done to exempts, non-exempts, and the Department.

Wait till the civil lawsuit comes in from the store owner on behalf of his employee and Joe citizen that where both locked up after both their cases get thrown out at court. Maybe this time Tricky has to show up to court whether he wants too or not.
Today I heard Daley answering some nit wit reporters question about CPD morale. This goof, Daley actually said he did not think there is a morale problem in the CPD! He then added some dribble along the lines "we are all public servants", as if to equate him as a public servant with you cops. It was appalling that this self serving, self promoting, pandering, incompetent politican thinks of himself as equal to the police in service. I thought of the last couple of years, of Francis, Valadez, and all of the rest of the "public servants" like him and realized he is no man nor did he contribute nearly as much as most individual policemen do on any given day. Facing down the three assholes on the northside last night is the kind of service Daley cannot even imagine in his wildest dreams. And as a citizen, I am not buying bullshit that crime is down when LOD deaths rose to the level they have. Crime is down my ass.

Hope that the interim sup has someone look into the 30 cases that the alien or his buddy Brust signed off on and sent for seperation. Lots of these were bs cases and those guys/gals need someone to stand up for them. We all understand that those who have tried to help have been thwarted in their efforts by people in spots that were put there by the alien. They are now gone and its time to try and salvage these peoples careers along with their sanity. SCC CAN U HAVE A NEW POST JUST FOR THIS ? WE NEED HELP AND NEED TO GET SOMEONE To NOTICE AND ACT.

Just an Old Gresham Ranger: This post has just hit the nail on the head. The author of this post is apparently in the know about the early days of this farce of an administration, his statements about Peterson are true (just look at his and Weis's backround together).Hiram Grau should have worn a metal plate in the back panel of his vest. The word TRAITER comes to mind. so lets not forget the TRAITORS still among us.1) ALL MEMBERS OF THE POLICY GROUP 2) Peterson, 3)Crystal Ball Unit, ALL ENEMIES OF THE POLICE. REMBER REMBER REMBER.
"The neighborhood needs to feel that the new superintendent is not going to be a protector of police when they are wrong," said the Rev. Michael Pfleger, who had concerns about an insider being hired. "My worry is that you have to make sure that whoever is coming from the system is not going to protect the system."
A BIG FUCK YOU TO FATHER "SHITBAG" PFLEGER! YOUR WORRIED ABOUT THE WRONG THINGS YOU FUCK!
Patterson, Gorman, Byrne? I think most of you half-wits might have a fatal allergic reaction if you recommended three people who actually passed a promotional examination. What happened to this job...
Really, only people who passed the test are qualified to lead? Ok lets make Phylis Gill Supt...I dont know if any of the above three were merit or passed the test, but I have seen them on way to many police shootings, and they act as professionals and leaders.
Yes there are a large majority of merit assholes, but there are even more test passing dickweeds..Just look at some of the most repeated names on this blog, AZ and JT from 11, both passed the test, would you follow them into battle? I hope not!!!!

I agree these units could be combined, or shrunk, but you do have them mixed up. I was in 007 when MSF brought the arrest report to Capt Kulbida with 8 names on a DOPW. It wasnt a police fighter, just a jerk weed gang banger that actually needed to go to jail, but 8 names, come on...
Ryan has his faults, but generally tries to keep the best interest of his people in line. Rousell for a military man never followed chain of command, he would run to weis with any little problem. BUT Rousell is a good boss, he may of just got caught up in getting the best for his people.

As long as we have small-minded people running the department, numbers will be a big deal.
