The Return of Terry Hillard?
Yow:
- Reports indicate that veteran Daley aide Terry Hilliard will fill in for Weis in the interim, and that Mike Shields, a cousin of Michelle Obama's, and a member of the rank-and-file, is the top choice to take the Supt. job once Rahm Emanuel takes office.
At least the media is fronting off Shield's family connections early. That's a change from years past.

Hope they bring out all of Shields lady shennanigans. Here we go again people, Meet the New Boss, SAME as the old boss. As long as Daley is alive he will be the master puppeteer!
Terry Hillard will do exactly what Daly tells him, he never could think on his own. Also, he promoted Down Town Brown to Commander, also promoted Hands Shields. The big fool has a big ego.
Terry Hillard? The retired Supt. with all the privatized city contracts in his pocket? Boy, change really is in the air!!!
HILLARD, an absolute figure head, don't ever have to worry about him having an original thought. Will he get Barbra McDonald to think for him. The security consultant who can't pass the private detective exam. and his to function under someone ele's license.
Glad to be retired. Terry H what an original thought. He must be doing it for free, right? Mike Shields, are we forgetting all his baggage.
Now is the time for daley to dump all exempts with less than 3 years in grade , here's the mayors chance for pension reform
does he have the brains
he talks a good game
Not the sharpest knife in the drawer but Hillard is NOT a coward.
Gotta run!
I truly doubt that Hillard will recognize this place. This job does not even remotely resemble what it was even as late as 2003. We are still screwed. Be careful out there. This bus does not just stop because JFLED is gone. Be careful!
Welcome back, Terry. Anything after that jagoff is like a breath of fresh mountain air.
Please please please keep Hilliard!
Way to go Rahm. Shields as Superintendent. You got to be kidding me. A little tit for tat? What are his qualifications? Oh yeah, he's related to the Obama's. Things will never change in this city until a republican is voted in. When is everyone going to wake up? When the city and state are both bankrupt? I hope you don't fuck up this city like your ex-boss fucked up this country.
The fact that Shanx had to reach all the way back to Hillard (retired '03) speaks badly of all of the exempts in the 'inner circle' behind the WEISel. Are we that full of incompetent Hall Hacks within the Asst. Supt., Deputy Supt. and Chief ranks? Will the successor to the WEISel/Masters regime of infamy have to step in with a bigger broom than the one WEISel brought? Stay tuned...
Why not James Jackson? What is it 1999 again? Hillard, really?
TERRY HILLARD?
Y E S!
WTF!! He has a private company doing personnel stuff
In a healthy police department, all sworn members should aspire to be Superintendent. Every Chicago Poice Officer was hired in part because of their problem solving and leadership abilities. They should make themselves familiar with the general orders, special orders and rules and regulations of the CPD. In everything they do, they should prepare themselves to do their best when their number is called. That has not been the case with the Chicago Police Department in the last four years. Morale was at an all-time low. The main reason for the low morale was Mayor Daley's choice of Police Superintendent. CPD has plenty of qualified forward thinking officers who can rebuild our Department. Hopefully, R & D saved all the orders changed while CPD was mired on the dark side. They will serve as good reference during the rebuilding process. Bringing Terry Hillard back as the Interim Superintendent is a good start. God Bless Terry Hillard. Long live the Chicago Police Department.
Mike Shields a member of the rank and file?
Where do they get this shit?
Let's hope Rahm has more common sense than that.
Mike Shields as Supt. would be a huge mistake.
Between Mike Shields and Ernie Brown we'd need a lawyer from Corp. Counsel assigned to HQ just to handle all the sexual harassment beefs and lawsuits.
Yes Mike Shields did come up through the Dept.( albeit meritoriously..thanks to Michelle) he's still a very poor choice as Supt. Maybe marginally better than JFed but still a really poor choice.
To ensure the department gets back on track, the decaying corpse of John Townsend is being exhumed to become acting 1st Deputy.
Congrats to SCC!
You beat them! They will forever have their dream of "outing" you unfulfilled!
Is it a conflict of interest that Hilliard's company is doing the new recruit background checks and he's acting as Superintendent? Is it a package deal? Will he draw a salary as Supe? Just curious.....
Please not Shields, with all his baggage that's like putting Downtown Ernie Brown in as Superintendant. To get elected Rahm talked the talk now its time to walk the walk. If Rahm does this he is no better than Daley and business as usual in city hall.Shields is no leader just a political funkie.
Shields huh, I miss Jody already.
Isn't that the shit they are fighting over in the middle ease. ie:Passing down positions of influence to family and friends.
America fuck yeah!
let cuello or jackson take over until rahm appoints a new boss
Doesn't Stubby know that Mike Shields is probably one of the most UNQUALIFIED for the top spot.
Where is William Bratton? This department needs a leader, not another political stooge!!! Interim or permanent...Heard it hear first, the writing for him to take over (Bratton) is on the wall.
the good part is that JFLED has left the building!!!!
This ungreat ful SOB, could not agree on the money to stay!!!!
That MF just made a cool million and still wanted to steal more!!! Fuk him, let him b on his way.
This is AWESOME!!!! Hopefully Hilliard is sickened by the fake cop masters(cracker jack cop)and all the back stabbers(policy group) who sold their souls and looked down on the rest of us for J-Fled. The five year wonders walking around like they are so important because they work for J-Fled will hopefully come back down to earth. Hopefully many bosses will remember what they did.
Terry you told me about a year and a half ago to ride it out and things would be back to normal. Well lets see i d suggest a mass address of all sworn officers as to what to expect ..in some form and get "her" out of ur old office in 011 ASAP
Why are we paying him to comeback when Jimmy Jackson is there and can run the department until May when a permanent successor named??? Oh ya and JJ is already on the payroll!!!!
Well at least a REAL STREET COP will be in charge for a now. I thought Hillard was a fair boos & a good boss.
a good guy and well respected, a good choice for acouple of months in my opinion. adios jfed u were never a chicago cop. glad the madness is over. please take puppet masters with you. his parents cant donate to the daley crime family anymore and put that gun away dork. u never earned it!
Will he have to quit his lucrative security company or are we all being privatized?
So does Terry take a leave of absence from his security company?
Bring in Chief Wiggum!
not shields he will have more lawsuits with woman then EB.
What made any of you think things would be different, please just stop the bitching. Listen, it's going to be like this until you retire - news flash! It's like owning an orange grove and not having a ladder, no juice for the common peasant, just pile us up and stand on our backs until you reach the perfect one.
Well at least a REAL STREET COP will be in charge for a now. I thought Hillard was a fair boos & a good boss.
when was your last drug test??

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Hilliard's Co. DID NOT get the contract to do the background investigations.
Some Co. in the far South suburbs that is owned by a retired Detective and his partner.
Remember, Hillard came from the same Mayoral bodyguard unit you all beef about now. Same ol Shit.
Don't ever forget that Hillard threw many cops under the bus too. Bowing down to the reverends right after an incident happened without a decent investigation. Don't ever forget that!!!!!
Just watched Chuck Goudie, who refered to Shields as Michelle's cousin.
Lets get a list of all the crap that E Brown, and Shields has pulled. Domestics & Sex Beefs and post them.
Who is this "Chuckie" I've heard about at HQ?
Isn't he over 63.
Terry is 68 Years old, too old to be sworn with the CPD. It would open too many doors for the rest of us.
I will put off my retirement if Rahm brings in McGruff the Crime dog to run the department.
Woof. GRRRRRRRRrr
How about the finest cop to ever wear a uniform?? Deputy Sup John Risley??
HUH?
What?
He is dead?
Then I guess he is still dead?
Nevermind. Hillard will do, and maybe his daughter in 001 will have a chance to get promoted now.
Yeah the real chicago way!!!!How does PO PJ from 001Dist get assigned to Fugitive App. This guy was fired and got his job back because of who he knew. This guy should of been a rule 14 violation but is given a good spot because who he knows. When is it ever going to stop. He must of taken Weis to the Super Bowl this year.
3/01/2011 01:04:00 AM
This guy has been nothing but a
brown nose ass kisser his whole career so its no surprise that he made the fug app unit, no surprise at all. These are the types of people that make merit spots and get the choice units people, people like this that are total beatoffs while the other cops....the working cops... who deserve that spot by working their asses off and actually deserve either merit (overall bad test taker) or by application, but who constantly get passed over because of no clout. Its sickening and a slap in the face. PJ needs to wipe that smirk off his face cause people know how big of a stroke you really are........too bad your phonecall is blind/deaf or doesnt care.
The first thing Hillard should do is dump this goof back into patrol. It is no secret you and commander LS are good friends but you must of taken Weis to the Super Bowl for this move. This is a slap to every working PO. PJ you are a snake!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't expect Hillard to do too much. Shanks surely just wants him there as a figurehead to keep the seat warm until Rahm takes over and names an actual Supt.
It would be nice though if Hillard could stop the 2 year tailspin we're in. With Shanks still the mayor that probably won't happen. The dept. is as much a product of Shanks as it was JFraud.
what's the shields stalking story?
Well...You Folks...ummmm You Folks...ummm...Eyes Gots To Be Betta...ummm...You Folks....
The re-emergence of Terry Hillard has stopped the ascent of Ernie Brown dead in its tracks, and here's why:
1) Bringing Hillard back is a message that there is a lack of confidence in all of the higher ups directly behind Weis, from Jackson/Cuello on down.
No surprises that those ranks are largely filled
with ball warmers.
2) HIllard is a sign of stability, and we all know the CPD has been anything but stable for quite a while now.
Remember all of Weis's 'press conferences of desperation' for the past few months, on Sundays, just about always held by his lonesome? Pathetic.
Hillard will also serve in a valuable position as a mentor to whoever will be the successor to Weis.
Love him or hate him, things flowed well under Hillard, even during the Latonya Haggerty shooting and the R Kelly sex trial.
3) Ernie Brown can't possibly be considered worthy or ready to wear the crown of Supt., at least not by either Daley's or Emanuel's thinking. Brown will likely take his leave by summer. It's likely he'll politic
Emanuel for some sort of high paid largely worthless post a la Dana Starks. Don't count on Emanuel to placate EB, not even to gain favor with the Reverends. Emanuel has to know something about
all of EB's sexual shennanighans, and he'll have no reason to keep EB around or to offer him a 'golden parachute' nothing job when the City is struggling to
operate within a workable budget.
4) Best money is on Mike Shields. If EB doesn't have enough sense to be gone by the time that happens, look for Shields to 'make it so' shortly after he accepts the Top Cop Star. There's no love lost between the two, and EB knows he's history if
Shields gets the nod.
Terry Hillard-as interim Supt. Why doesn't Daley just walk over to the County side of the building and wake up LeRoy Martin? Apparently Preckwinkle hasn't located the closet that he is sleeping in as he continues on the
public payroll.
Watch the crew who worked under Hillard (and his former driver) to get promoted. The remaining from the original CAPS Office Project to move up quick! Three already work at 35th.
Where is William Bratton? This department needs a leader, not another political stooge!!! Interim or permanent...Heard it hear first, the writing for him to take over (Bratton) is on the wall.
3/01/2011 05:45:00 PM
--
Last week, Bratton stated he wasn't interested.
When Hillard was the Supt., he was a company man. He liked to suspend guys for petty crap. He's not a coward but he's also not our friend.
Now Obama will control the Chicago Police Dept. as well as the city. We're doomed. Doomed for sure.
It's not Terry...It's his son, Dana.
We are now an official FLED-FREE zone.
Mike Shields as Police superintendent and another Mike Shields as FOP President.
Ebony and Ivory, live together in perfect harmony...
Terry is 68 Years old, too old to be sworn with the CPD. It would open too many doors for the rest of us.
3/01/2011 06:20:00 PM
How about you get a life? There is more to life than this job.....
Shields as Supt
Shields as FOP President
Shields as Pension Board Trustee
Shields x 3
I just had to post this as some humor
How about bringing back Phil ( old country buffet) Cline?
I sure hope not. I can't think of anyone on the command staff I would want as the superintendent. I hope they look at Lt's or Sgts form patrol.
Boy, oh boy, I bet there are a lot of exempts at the top who already measured JFled's desk and just got the rug pulled out from under their very feet. How many of them will bail now that they've been shat upon?
www.hillardheintze.com
Congrats CPD on the departure of your idiot in charge. We were blessed two weeks ago on our Junior J-man getting bounced to the snow and flood police (IEMA). Not very likely but heres to "da boat of us"
getting a stand up leader who cares as much about the rank and file as he does lining his own pockets and resume. peeved.
Hope Lardner is right behind Masters?
Yeah, that's smart. Put someone in charge who's been gone for 8 years. Should be right on top of things. I bet Skull and the Bartender are pissed as hell. HAH!
I wonder if possum-head signed a no disclosure agreement or if he will write a tell-all?
does anyone know if J-Fraud walked out of HQ, or did he RUN?
does this mean his taser spokesperson deal is over?
OT--
LISA MADIGAN TRYING TO FORCE ISP TO RELEASE COMPLETE LIST OF ILLINOIS FOID CARD HOLDERS TO ASSOCIATED PRESS
WBBM radio is reporting this just now. ISP initially refused, Madigan ordered again, ISP refused again and says it's a privacy issue and it'll go to court to try to protect the records.
Daley appeared with a raft of antis and proposed a whole raft of new gun laws just yesterday; I find it impossible to believe that this move wasn't cooked up at that little coffee clatch.
It struck me today; the Daley administration is not going to end quietly. It's going the other way, exactly like a fireworks show, towards a grand finale of huge gouts of burning tax money being ejected skywards from the rooftop of City Hall as Daley's hysterical laugh echoes from the loudspeakers...
Why not Roland Burris?
He would have been able to carve a CPD star on his mausoleum along with everything else...
"I am the Superintendent of Police..." he'd repeat quietly to himself as he tottered gently off down the hall towards the Gentlemen's Lounge, the one with the nice leather chairs where he could watch the smoke of his cigar rise slowly, slowly towards the ceiling...
Hoo boy. Sorry Mrs. SCC, he's gonna be having dinner in front of the computer tonight...and there's a little party too...
We'll try to get him back to you tomorrow, in some kinda shape.
*
Hillard, an ex-superintendent as interim is not a bad choice for the short term. Choosing a new Supt. from within the ranks will not be easy. Lets face it, most of the ranking officers & exempts left are meritorious political appointees. Their careers have been carefully guided, to bolster appearances. It's pretty sad that this is what this department has become. I really hope that the new mayor takes time and effort to choose a deserving candidate instead of another political hack. I won't be holding my breath though.
My vote for our next is John Farrell, since were bringing retiree's back. He would be a fine Sup
Here's a Thought... Mandatory Retirement Age is 63! Hillard was born in 1944... Would that Not Make Him at Least 66? Would that Not open Pandora's box? Oh, I Forgot... We already opened pandora's box with Residency...
To ensure the department gets back on track, the decaying corpse of John Townsend is being exhumed to become acting 1st Deputy.
ROTFLMAO !!!!!
Now that Weis is gone he can take
Masters Masters masters with him because soon we wil have
Shields Shields Shields
let cuello or jackson take over until rahm appoints a new boss
3/01/2011 05:39:00 PM
No thanks. They both sold their souls to the weasely one.
Doesn't shield have to many skeletons in his closet? Heck they aren't even in his closet they are out in the open got anyone who wants to see.
Hasn't he been demoted by two different bosses?
There is one thing that we can look forward to once Rahm gets in. He doesn't owe a lot to the revruns because he didn't go to them to help get elected like Daley did each time he was up for re-election. So maybe seeing that he didn't go to them to get the office on the 5th floor he might just tell them to take a flying f#*&. We can only hope so.
OT; Heard Mike " Lover Boy" Picardi already grabbed Jfleds vehicle for his travels.
Anyone else hear or see this?
dont call it a comeback...ive been here for years....
-LL cool j-
THIS IS GETTING FKN NUTS! HEY TERRY, CAN YOU SAY ETHICS VIOLATIONS!!!
God Bless Terry Hilliard. Class act.
Charlie Sheen for Superintendent!
"Mike Shields, a cousin of Michelle Obama's, and a member of the rank-and-file [of everyday working coppers with cousins who are First Lady] is the top choice to take the Supt. job once Rahm Emanuel takes office."
Incest is cleaner and more straightforward.
Mike Shields as Supt. would be a huge mistake.
Between Mike Shields and Ernie Brown we'd need a lawyer from Corp. Counsel assigned to HQ just to handle all the sexual harassment beefs and lawsuits.
WE HAVE A LAWYER FROM CORP COUNSEL RUNNING PERSONAL OH DAMN I MEAN "HUMAN RESOURCE DIVISION" RENAMED BY TRACEY LADNER HERSELF
I dont mind Hilliard. unfortunately he wont be around for long. Shields is a different story, another clout hack. Same old shitcago
When Hillard was the Supt., he was a company man. He liked to suspend guys for petty crap. He's not a coward but he's also not our friend.
You nailed it! He's definitely no friend to the workin blue shirt. He's from that old regime that cared about stupid shit like losing your hat during fuckin foot persuit. The ONLY good thing about his appointment is that it's interim. I couldn't wait to see him go. Already can't wait for him to re-go. Unfuckingbelievable.
Rahm should anoit Det. Dan Varallo one of his biggest supporters!
If this wasn't so fkn pathetic, I'd die laughing!!! The best we can do for an interim superintendent is a fkn "RE-TREAD"? Gimme a break! Terry may have been a decent PREVIOUS supe, but he's still and NOW just another Daley HACK! Why don't someone look into all his dealings with the city as a private contractor after he "retired"? Just ask Lewin how much federal grant money was given to his "security company"! HEY INSPECTOR GENERAL AND GOWDY, SNIFF A LIL!!!
Who cares. He's not jfed. He is better than masters and a coward. Save cooter
With all three of the bosses being talked about on this thread...let the most current pending, as well as the new sexual harassment beefs begin!!!!
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!
Terry is 68 Years old, too old to be sworn with the CPD. It would open too many doors for the rest of us.
3/01/2011 06:20:00 PM
How about you get a life? There is more to life than this job
No fuckin shit! Why would anyone want to stay on this job well into their 60's? Don't get me wrong, I like the job, always have. But it's not my entire life. Christ, all mighty! Can't believe guys who don't look forward to the day when they can retire and leave being the police behind. I almost feel sad for them.
Who is this "Chuckie" I've heard about at HQ?
3/01/2011 06:18:00 PM
"Chucky" is the nickname for Lt. KM in Patrol. It was coined for her resemblance to the doll in the movie both in appearance and personality.
Anonymous said...
Remember, Hillard came from the same Mayoral bodyguard unit you all beef about now. Same ol Shit.
3/01/2011 06:15:00 PM
Different mayor.
Hey Weiss, wasn't it "rude" wasn't "amazing", isn't it "unbelievable" that the new boss did not talk to you, did not ask your opinion, did not ask you whats going on. He just left you out in the cold for you to figure out your fate. Sound familiar Mo-FO?????
This shows how bad of a state we are in. They can't have someone from in lead is for there an one half months. I just can't understand why everyone keeps voting for these goofs. Hillard back. NUTS!
One last fuck you by Daley...He wanted weis to stay, he didnt get his way so he put a 68 year old guy who has been retired since 2003. Hillard is a nice guy, but towards the end of his term bowed down to the revs.
This is a total FU to the current exempt staff. Yes some deserve a big FU, but there are decent ones.
Mike Shields, not gonna happen without big press cover up, which of course is possible in Chicago. You want to improve morale, put somebody like Chief Byrne in place.
Terry Hillard? The retired Supt. with all the privatized city contracts in his pocket? Boy, change really is in the air!!!
--Conflict of interest??? Wasn't his agency hired to do background checks on newcomers?
I will put off my retirement if Rahm brings in McGruff the Crime dog to run the department.
Woof. GRRRRRRRRrr
3/01/2011 06:21:00 PM
That's hilarious! You forgot the "take a bite out of crime" one liner McGruff had. Actually McGruff and Hillard look the same, baggy eyes, tired expression...
68 is too old...
The rule is 62 and out!!!
No Exceptions!!!!!!!!
The law suits are coming.....
I was forced out at 62, I'm 65 now. They owe me 3 years pay is how I see it.
What I don't understand is, that if Hilliard has to be brought in to run the Dept. For just a few months, what does that say about the number 2 & 3 , our Deputies who are the next in command? Aren't they even qualified enough to run the Dept. for just a few months? Why?
Looks like they must Pay-to-Play to me for their positions. Maybe Kass can figure it out, but thats my take. The powers to be don't even trust the number 2 or 3 in Dept. Command to take the reigns, even for just a few weeks.
What a 3 Ring Circus.
Heard that a certain female lawyer (MWC) on Team Shields is pissed. Her brother is getting fired for acting like an asshole off duty and the other Shields Teamers assigned to Deb Kirby's Legal Affairs didn't even give their girl the heads up before the axe dropped. Youch!
got rid of him once and now he is back. To bad he didn't have the brains or balls to stand up for the PD
mmmmmm....
Dugan Dugan Dugan!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Terry, get rid of Penny Trahanas. She is RUINING the 011th district. It's a hell hole, but we've had some great bosses that have made it tolerable...until Penny came along. She is sinking the ship!
We should hope for shields. He is one of us and there will be house cleaning.
Buh Bye Puddin head.
Hello Uncle Terrence.
Dats all wee need is more Hibbity Dibbity..
A slap in the face to Jimmy Jackson, Ernie Brown and Aunt Bea....I guess they'll all be cleaning out their offices and updating resumes.
Supt. Hilliard is a marine,a blue star Chicago Police Officer and a cancer survivor he is all man, not some little boy hiding in the closet. Welcome him back. If he was strict with petty things thats only because he wants you to be proud of the uniform you wear. There has been no one in charge of this department for the last three years! Welcome back sir.
Come on people... We complained about how shitty weis was. Finally on his last day of a 3 year contract, nearly a million dollars later the big headed jag does something positive for this department. He quits! We all know coppers complain but Jesus. Let's stop bitching and moaning and get this department back on track. We all know the sup isn't going to be out there locking up the bad guys. It's up to us. Big head lied about his stats for three years and hopefully that comes out with the next sup but it's time for us to stop bitching and get the job done. If it is shields just remember he got knocked down by weis because he stood up to him and told him his ideas would fail. Everyone who would be in the running for that spot has juice. Sure not presidential juice but they no somebody. He is one of us and I think he will get this department back to where it was prior to big head and 3m.
Scc made ch7 news!!
So of the 10,000 + members of the CPD, the ONLY one qualified to run it is Michelle's Cousin?!? Only in Shitcago.
So Jody "THE BUBBLEHEAD DOLL" Weis is gone. The new boss,for now is an old boss again. E. Brown or dep. shields are two of the front runners for supt. No disrepect intended but i hope they can come up with more choices,or could it be that on one else wants the job.
Terry Hillard seems to be a nice enough guy... His personal integrity seems to be hard to assail.
He has and always will take his marching orders from the 5th floor... Good and bad.
Marines are nothing if not obedient to the chain of command.
Marines ARE drilled to politely decline to follow illegal and or unethical orders.
Marines are drilled NOT TO ISSUE illegal or unethical orders to their subordinates...
BUT...
This here is that CPD thing... The rules of conduct and the rules of engagement are a bit different.
You have a command echelon not devoted to the safety and well being of their subordinates.
Screw ups as perpetrated by the command echelon of CPD would be damn near a cigarette & blindfold worthy offense in the military and in some other Police Departments.
Sanction for misdeeds is commensurate with rank in some places but not here.
Again... Hillard seems to be a nice enough guy...
With that said... The bozo circus of CPD fuckery is still ongoing.
Don't let your guards down and don't give 'em your 6...
MESSAGE TO RAHM!!
Rahm you want to save money and hire more coppers? Easy way withing budget is to elimate the rank of "security specialist" the D-3 paid "valet" positions! With the mayors detail,byrkes the treasurers guys making $18,000 base extra with overtime making over $30,000 extra per year times all of them would equal almost 1 million per year! Then you could hire at least 20 NEW NEEDED STREET COPPERS! They would all stay even at D-1,and that would also reduce the pensions these guys get saving the pension fund and city needed money! Great idea RAHM!!
3/01/2011 06:31:00 PM
He took LEO to the superbowl this year WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Hillard!!! What a total, stunning, beautiful, knockout, slap in the face to J-Fled’s handpicked command staff.
No Exempt is qualified as pretend Supt. Daley & Eman had to dig up a “has been” for the job.
Poor JJ, Skull, and Bartender. I feel sooooo sorry for you. Unfortunately, you all will get new government jobs and collect a Gold Star pension you don’t deserve. Shit floats.
SCC on Channel 7 tonight! Could anyone provide commentary (sorry, was watching a game on ESPN at a bar) -
-No Cop Here-
I hear they're bringing back Jimmy Carroll and he’s going to be the commander of the academy cafeteria.
Trying again...SCC on Channel 7 - anyone catch the report -
-No Cop Here-
Jody Weis is gone, just be thankful for that and stop hating on everyone else. Hell most PO's have too many bones in their closet to count. Let's just see what happens and stop being so damn cynical....
One reporter made the point that Hillard's main job is to get the Department ready for summer, its busiest time. It can't be easy to suddenly shoulder such a big load again; for everyone's sake, I will set all the politics aside for now, say "Thank You, Sir" for stepping in, and wish the man well in his efforts. His is a familiar face, and he knows the city throughly. I would urge everyone to go along in a better spirit now and help him out as best they can; just for the sake of the people of the city who need protection and order.
Stay safe and God bless all.
Will he have to quit his lucrative security company or are we all being privatized?
3/01/2011 06:01:00 PM
-----------
HEY!!!
Exempts are NOT allowed to run / own a company!!
Get a CR number NOW!!!!!
SHIELDS?? why not a box of rocks you'd get the same IQ.
Can we get someone qualified for once? Shields is a joke and the CPD will continue to be the butt of a joke. he will not help improve morale etc.
Rahm and Daley just made a statement with Terry as interim.
The new supt will not be Ernie, Aunt Bea, Jackson.
Remember what happened when Starks was the interim, the west side reverends pushed for him to be the supt as he was already in place and doing the job, that will not happen this time. The reverends, aldermen whoever won't be able to use that ploy this time. It cost a good penny to give Dana a do nothing job to get him out of the limelight to be the supt.
So let me get this straight, NO ONE on the Chicago Police Department is qualified to lead the Chicago Police Department. Funny because I know a bunch of good coppers that have Law degrees and management degrees. But that doesn't mean your qualified to be a supervisor on this dept. I guess you have to be a serial stalker or a mom of a child that sells dope out of her house..no no you can also have bad credit that's always a plus. WTF!
I'm not a Chicago Cop, but I always like Hillard....he HAS to be an improvement over Miss Jody!
I'll be pissed of Michelle's relative gets this post....this sets up Rahm to run for President in 2016, and Barack to run for Mayor. Sheesh.
Terry has guts, I think this will work out. Thanks for your service & sacrifice, folks!
rahm doesn't have much confidence in our current command staff that jfled handpicked
time for a major shake up and the sooner the better
shields will bring doty back because thats his guy
Charlie Sheen for Superintendent!
And Lindsay Lohen for 1st deputy, what a great pair of fun freaks!!
At least they have an answer for everything...
A really nice guy personally but not all that bright.

A slap in the face to Jimmy Jackson, Ernie Brown and Aunt Bea....I guess they'll all be cleaning out their offices and updating resumes.

Stop with the "slap in the face" stuff. It's only a slap when a qualified person isn't chosen and DTEB and Aunt Bea aren't qualified...seriously, can a bimbo like Bea really think she can run the department?
Hey blue: Has the Supt. ever mattered to you? I didn't think so. Me neither.
Same show - different producer. Happy to hear that the show will be airing reruns for a few months...they were pretty good episodes under Hilliard.
Welcome Back I say...ya didnt like Jody in a CPD uniform...We'll Hillard WAS and IS a Chicago Cop!! As far as his security company...c'mon people....we are really gonna get silly over a guy making money..what sort of side jobs have you worked?
I think I will figure out where to eat now. Be safe brothers.
How about bringing back Phil ( old country buffet) Cline?
Correct me, if I'm wrong, but when he sold his house, he moved out of the city...
So residency might apply, for some...
Everyone worried about the age issue, it is an appointed position

Terry Hillard? The retired Supt. with all the privatized city contracts in his pocket? Boy, change really is in the air!!!

Any Ethics violations here??
Jfled did not flee nor quit. Shortshanks would not extend his contract and there is no doubt that was made verbally clear to Jfled, in private.
Jfled thought he was playing Shorty's game by telling the press I would love to stay on with the cpd, as if that would really put Shortshanks in a predicament.
Welcome to our world Jfled. You sold your soul to the devil and it came back to bite you in the ass. Hope you saved some of your 900 thousand, you slut.
I thought this city was broke and did not have any money ? Why wouldnt this IDIOT pick Jimmy Jackson who this city is already paying ?
Uncle Ben!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on people... We complained about how shitty weis was. Finally on his last day of a 3 year contract, nearly a million dollars later the big headed jag does something positive for this department. He quits! We all know coppers complain but Jesus. Let's stop bitching and moaning and get this department back on track. We all know the sup isn't going to be out there locking up the bad guys. It's up to us. Big head lied about his stats for three years and hopefully that comes out with the next sup but it's time for us to stop bitching and get the job done. If it is shields just remember he got knocked down by weis because he stood up to him and told him his ideas would fail. Everyone who would be in the running for that spot has juice. Sure not presidential juice but they no somebody. He is one of us and I think he will get this department back to where it was prior to big head and 3m.

I second that. Shields will be good for this Department.
"Is it a conflict of interest that Hilliard's company is doing the new recruit background checks and he's acting as Superintendent?"
Conflict of interest?? In Chicago??
Never!
"Where is William Bratton? This department needs a leader, not another political stooge!!!"
In Chicago??
Never! No leaders. No one who will think n their own. ONLY political stooges.
By the time they debrief Hillard on all the uniform changes Cline and Jody made Hillards time will be up. How about having someone who in there now and knows what's going on take command. They haven't got a clue. That's why the city is going under. Hillard means well but is not up to speed on all the Units Cline created. We are going down fast. Everyone who knows anything knows we are close to 3,000 short of what we are budged at. We really need about 5,000 to get the job done. Its all playing with the numbers. And further more didn't Daley say around new years of 2000 that hillard was out of touch and had a jar head mentality for saying stock up on water and batteries. They just want control. They want someone to keep us quite. They want to control who gets there buddies out of trouble.
In parting if any Boss or City elected goof calls me to come out of retirement, I tell them where to get off. I hate to say it but the department is in shambles no thanks to DALEY and all his hand picked exampts. Georges is only forty and has a long way to go. The rest will be gone because they have the time.
"Why not Roland Burris?
He would have been able to carve a CPD star on his mausoleum along with everything else..."
Yeah! And maybe ANOTHER public pension to add to his collection!
68 is too old...
The rule is 62 and out!!!
No Exceptions!!!!!!!!
The law suits are coming.....
I was forced out at 62, I'm 65 now. They owe me 3 years pay is how I see it.
Terry Hillard can simply come back as a civilian. Exempt personnel can be either sworn of civilian. Civilian personnel have no mandatory retirement age.
shields will bring doty back because thats his guy
uugghhhh, say it aint so!
It also makes sense why EB shoved Lt ozveldo down Jfleds throat to send that goof to epic. Time was awasting...

the tow truck thing didnt quite work for me.
DING DONG WEIS IS GONE
Is their some OTHER Mike Shields on the department? The only one was the 10 year guy with the FOP and Pension Board. If he's related to Michelle Obama, that would be a surprise. But the The president is somehow related to Brad Pitt so there you go.
At 67 or 68 or whatever Hillard is likely not going to be sworn. However, he can be a civilian Superintendant of Police. I hope he takes the high ground and wears a suit. That would be an additional slap to possum head.
Hillard knows protocol as a former Marine and former CPD and should know he is not authorized to be sworn again once retired and past 63. He will acknowledge this if he shows up in a suit when he gets to work.
If I remember correctly,Hillard was the sup that started making clout bosses. Then Cline came and he made more a whole bunch more clout people. J-fled kicked it up a notch, and now we sit with a so top-heavy dept of those that don't belong, that they can't even find one worthy of a temp fill in. Lovely. The big question is which way will Rhambo go? More clout, or legit. Wait and see.
Hilliard won't be leaving anything behind in "his" private security company. He was the figurehead "boss" that allowed them to get minority-owned business status. He may have been a good cop, but his selling out the officers following the Hagarty shooting was the push that sent this department into it's downward spiral.
Bring Phil Kline back, you got to be kidding. That would mean they would have to bring back Marikay also.
I say give Charlie Sheen a shot.
Jackson and Cuello both delcined to be interim Supe, Brown volunteered and was turned down, they reached out to Hillard a s a last resort to keep the ship afloat until Rahm annoints Shields, who I think will be good for us; he was a good boss police-wise, just needs to cool it with the ladies and he'll be fine.
It also makes sense why EB shoved Lt ozveldo down Jfleds throat to send that goof to epic. Time was awasting...
It's Lt. osvaldo to YOU so get it right!
HE NEEDS TO GET RID OF ROMAN. HE ALREADY SET UP HIS SON "TOOTSIE" ON RAHM'S DETAIL. "TOOTSIE" WAS WALKING AROUND A PARTY THE OTHER DAY PLAYING A VOICE MESSAGE FROM RAHM ON HIS CELL PHONE TALKING HOW HE'S BEEN DRIVING RAHM AROUND ON CITY TIME IN A CITY CAR WHILE DALEY IS ON VACATION. HE HAS NEVER EVEN DONE ANY POLICE WORK, ALWAYS IN A GOOD SPOT. HE SAID RAHM ALREADY HAS 8 GUYS FOR HIS DETAIL AND HE WAS ASKED TO STAY ON. SO MUCH FOR GETTING ANYTHING LEGIT ON THIS DEPARTMENT.

Why Doty get's a gold braided pension and six figures from U of C. How much do you make?
I always felt that Hillard's backsliding (cozying up more to Shanks, to the rev'runs, et al) as the Supe coincided with the sudden passing of 1st Dep John Thomas. John Thomas was a special breed, God rest his soul.

Seiser for superintendent!

Enjoy your retirement. What are you doing reading a police blog anyway? I would be sitting in a beach laughing and really enjoying life.
Jennifer Beals for CPD superintendent! She seems more than capable in "The Chicago Code" :-D
didn't rahm say the city job is a privilage and city hall not an employment agency? he hasn't even been mayor elect a week and he's already hiring/promoting friends of his buddy obama....typical chicago bs politics.
Isn't he over 63.

Don't you understand yet? Only us jagoffs have to play by the rules.
We should hope for shields. He is one of us and there will be house cleaning
-- Oh Puleeeaassee

Uh...I seem to recall hearing that officers should have two weeks' supplies at home for Y2K...no one knew what was going to happen. We're very lucky that nothing much did.
"Why not Roland Burris?

Oh jeez...
I'm sure Shanks told Hillard to sit on his hands and smile for the cameras.
I'd love to see Hillard at least send some bodies back to the decimated Patrol Division but I won't get my hopes up.
When Hillard was the Supt., he was a company man. He liked to suspend guys for petty crap. He's not a coward but he's also not our friend.
You nailed it! He's definitely no friend to the workin blue shirt. He's from that old regime that cared about stupid shit like losing your hat during fuckin foot persuit. The ONLY good thing about his appointment is that it's interim. I couldn't wait to see him go. Already can't wait for him to re-go. Unfuckingbelievable.
3/01/2011 08:41:00 PM
re-go? I'm lovin it!!
To the unpublished NO BALLS:
You want to throw your name out there with your personal info and take the libel hit, have at it. But don't expect us to be left holding that bag with your anonymous comment. NO BALLS indeed. Asshat.
Bring Phil Kline back, you got to be kidding. That would mean they would have to bring back Marikay also.

OMG! She's the proverbial bad penny. It would be her 5th return to the department.
Business as usual, What else should we expect
