Wah Wah Wah!
We'd say "unbelievable" is it wasn't something we've read far too often in one of the local rags:
- Jerome Williams kissed his mother on her forehead Monday night in her Englewood apartment house when he told her he was going to run a store errand.
Two hours later, the 27-year-old was killed when, police say, he exchanged gunfire with Chicago police at a Family Dollar Store a few blocks away, leaving one officer wounded. Police said the shooting was sparked by Williams -- a parolee who was also a father of two with a third child on the way -- sticking up the store.
Gee whiz. A parolee in trouble with the law. And with three different babies by three different women. What a fucking surprise. But wait, it gets better:
- Court records show that Williams was sentenced to 5 years in prison for aggravated discharge of a firearm in 2001 and 14 years for conspiracy to commit murder in 2005. He was paroled in December 2009 for the conspiracy conviction, and his parole was set to end later this year, according to a spokeswoman for the Illinois Department of Corrections.
Let's see - convicted in 2001; sentence to 14 years; that should be sentence discharged in 2015. But he was paroled in 2009, a mere 8 years, which isn't even close to what "truth-in-sentencing" might lead you to believe - oh wait, we don't have truth-in-sentencing here. Might this be another one of Quinn's 1,800 early parolees? But wait, it gets even better:
- “What made him go in that store? I don’t know. I don’t know what was going through his mind,” his mother, Vanessa Williams, said Tuesday afternoon from the hallway outside her apartment. “But I know he’s not a killer.”
He's not a killer - just a convicted aggravated discharge of a firearm offender, convicted murder conspirator, AND attempted murderer of police officers. We guess it's not from lack of trying though, just lack of better aim. And the cherry on top?
- Vanessa Williams had an older son, Tony Williams, who was shot and killed on the South Side in June 1999. She has two other children, a son and daughter.
Evidently, this absentee momma has a habit of raising children with no impulse control, easy access to illegal firearms, and a nasty habit of being on the wrong end of gun crimes. And the Tribune company gives her ink to spout her bullshit while we pay for it.
UPDATE: We're being told our calendar and math are wrong in the comment section and that he served less than 4 years on the second charge.

and his mama cried.....in the ghetto
maybe this is the CHANGE we were promised over two years ago?
SCC, it's worse than you thought. It says he was sentenced to 14 years for the conspiracy in 2005,
and he was released for that in 2009. So, he only
served 4 years out of 14.
He'd have had better luck in prison. At least he'd
probably still be alive now (I'm not saying the
outcome was a bad thing though).
he was going to harvard in the fall and was going to be an expert in lead dispersal in mammals--- a tragedy that he lost his life shooting at the police while committing an armed robbery--- it's all just a big misunderstanding....mama said soo....
He was going to the dollar store to buy items to donate to the needy. He found the gun on the floor, saw the police and was trying to turn it in when the police shot him for no reason.
How long 'till the other two angels meet the fate of their siblings?
Jerome Williams kissed his mother on her forehead Monday night in her Englewood apartment house when he told her he was going to run a store errand.
Run an errand - rob some place.
Is there a difference to a ghetto rat?
Its worse. He got 5 years in 2001. Then he got 14 years in 2005. Paroled in 2009. So he did maybe 4 years of a 14 year stint.
No, SCC. Looks like he was convicted and sentenced to 5years for agg discharge in 2001. So, he should still have been in prison at the time he committed his attempt murder in 2004 or 2005.
In 2005, he was convicted of attempt/conspiracy to murder, and was sentenced to 14 years. He should be in prison for THAT until 2019. He got 14 years, but he served six?
Can anybody determine if this is part of Quinn's early-release idiocy?
Where's the headline that reads, "Policeman's mother laments near-murder of her son"?
God, what has this society become, to vilify the hero and sanctify the criminal?
no scc, he went back to the joint in 2005 for the conspiracy to commit murder and got 14 years. in 2001 he got agg discharge and took 5 years. they were two seperate cases. so he went in the joint in 2005 and was released on parole in 2009 so he only did 4 years of 14 years.. was he one of gov quinns early releases??? hmmmmm, you really need to update it because released only 4 years after getting 14 years is a crime and needs to be investigated.
Here we go... If she tries to sue the officer or the city, I hope the officer counters for him being injured from doing his job answering the robbery in progress call that was being commited by her son. This is like sooo redundant. When do you step up to the plate and take responsibility as a parent and say I'm not taking up for your ass if you did it??!! And it has nothing to do with being black, poor or in the "ghetto" as some people like to say. I'm an African American female and don't believe in that crap...family or not...you do wrong, you have to face the consequences. There are consequences for your actions good or bad. I wasn't raised like that...well, whoop there it is!
standard ops for the mutts to go, "who me??" we all know that, but what the media is doing here is a fucking disgrace. Sell out clowns. Gotta make sure the subaru and the house in lagrange get paid every month, without working too hard though.
Sounds familiar. Ahh yes!...
He was a sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan, you swore that you'd never never do it again
Of course you won't

The 911 call reporting the armed robbery came from the surveilence team of the security firm that Family Dollar hired.
That firm and surveilence team and call - North Carolina!!!!
A 911 call from North Carolina reporting this crime in progress.
Hope all the news stations show the video!!!!!
And the Tribune company gives her ink to spout her bullshit while we pay for it.
well, somebody's got to buy their raggedy assed bullshit product, and it's no longer people with brains that use them, so what's left for the tribune to cater to?
The worst run-in with the law I've ever had was a speeding ticket about 10 years ago. BUT according to the Chicago Powers I shouldn't be allowed to carry a gun to protect myself. If they allowed it there would be "blood in the streets."
Oh, would that be different from now? How?
I've said it countless times before and the fact that I have to repeat myself is really pissing me off. It's KILT...not KILLED. The fine upstanding workaholics and law abiding citizens of "Da Wood" don't get KILLED....they get KILT! Hee Haw....Hee haw!
What about the Police Officers mother? Her son could of been killed. A hero was made and the papers interview the mother of a man who tried to kill a Police Officer after committing an armed robbery? Where is the interview of the mothers of the employees this offender was trying to rob? How close to death those innocent victims came? That's a story!

There isn't any recognizable or acceptable society in Englewood.
It is Bizzaro World. Bad is good, ugly is beautiful, broken is great, everything is backwards, broken mirrors are better, upside down, topsy-turvy, evil is really goodness in disguise, prison is a graduate school, a right of passage, a way to manhood in the ghetto, nothing to be ashamed of, just more oppression by the evil blue eyed devils.
Stealing and robbery and murder and drunkenness and drug use is the norm. A child like mentality denying reality is the accepted condition.
"He din' do nuffins to be kilt by the po-leece." Mama says so. Good enough for the stellar reporters at the Trib. No wonder the Trib was shut out in the Pulitzer awards and is in bankruptcy. They can't go out of business soon enough to suit me!

Chicago should hire them and/or their equipment to watch all of our worthless podcams!
Haven't paid for the Fibune in years, but it's hard to believe they could write crap like this and call it "Journalism".
I'll buy it again when the paper quality becomes soft enough to wipe my ass with though, because that's all it's good for.
Chicago-West Detroit.
I feel sorry for his two illegitimate children and the two separate baby mommas. I also feel sorry for the third baby momma with a child on the way by this poor underprivileged and misunderstood victim.
Will they continue to get LINK and WIC so that we can continue to support them? I hope so, because they clearly lead lives worth living and contribute so much to society.
Handouts have made a great people of them. I want to continue to do my part so that they can grow up to be the finest citizens in our society. If only more out of my paycheck can go to them so that they don't have to work and have time to plan violent robberies and other crimes.
That 14 yr sentence was given in 2005 and he only served 4 yrs of it. The 2001 sentence was a 5 yr sentence & he was able to commit another crime 4 yrs later in 2005. But the best part is that the POS will not be causing any more havoc around here.
Maybe he just lost it when he found out that everything in the Dollar Store cost more than a dollar.
Wa Wa Wee Wah
No, I got it, I got it! He found a gun in the Family Dollar and was going to turn it in (to prevent the little chilluns from gettin hurt), when the police came in and pointed their guns at him FOR NO REASON (!) In his confusion, he ACCIDENTALLY pulled the trigger and it went off, striking the RACIST POLICE OFFICER. That's what happened, his Mommy said so.
Keep on blaming the police. This asshole was sentenced to 14 years in 2005 and got out in 2009. We lock them up, they let them out!
city wins another lawsuit!

Wait until Y'al find out that iffen yo daddy get kilt in a gunbattle, you get extra $$$ from SSI.
One dead daddy, three SSI payouts! The true ghetto lottery winer.
"HEY MOM GOING OUT TO FAMILY DOLLAR TO ROB THE PLACE NEED ANYTHING" If thie shitbird only had a chance and a chance another chance wait this time he changing his life. Ghetto Bs lawsuit.
Great photos in the Tribune. Girl and boy connect on internet (apparently with the help of Al Gore). Girl and boy meet, boy kills girl. Girls mama is photoed holding picture of girl. Aaah we all feel the pain, But mama, on the opposing side ,is pictured in the the same article holding picture of live boy (killer man). Now it's a battle of whose picture is bigger. The news is getting better and better.
A little off topic but ....ASU alum and a Chicago policeman was quoted in the Arizona Republic saying theres concern a local gang are going to start donning ASU clothing because of the similarities between logos of the two, raising concerns that others could be unintended victims of gang wars if they wear the new ASU gear.
An ASU associate “If they were to use it in that way, we would take all legal action to protect our mark.”
My question is how often have gangs been leagally sued?
Spin cycle?
OT:
Already one of Rahm's picks is not looking so good. An uh-oh moment occurred with Rahm's pick for school chief. Channel 7 found some shit that Rahm's crack team didn't. Not looking good for the new CPS guy. It isn't good to come into a new job for a new mayor and already have shit on your shoes.
And what is with Claypool for CTA chief? This is reform? From what, Samuel Insull?
You might as well bring Honest Frank Kruesi back.
city wins another lawsuit!

The best part..."Jury had no knowledge that if Butler prevailed, even for $500, his lawyer would have been able to petition the Court for the City of Chicago to pay his attorneys fees, which could have been tens of thousands of dollars."
No wonder these scum bags take the cases.

Fold it in half and rub it together real fast. It softens up enough to use at the cabin. I do prefer to wipe with the Scum Times, but the Fibbune is right there next to it.
Other uses include lining dog crates or bird cages and starting fires in the wood burner. Of course, I never buy those rags, just pick them up for free.
When they say, "He got kilt," does that mean something like, "He got game?" Does it somehow refer to the Celtic proclivity to the drink?
My people don't come from that island across the pond, but I myself got Kilt in spades. In fact, i'm heading back to the pub right now to "Get my kilt on."
And I got a great head of hair.
This city makes me sick!!! A piece of sh*t gets praised his momma gets interviewed by the media and the real HEROS of the whole ordeal don't even get noticed!!!! WOW

Very glad that the Officer is ok. The good guys won this one.
All mother's will have a hard time seeing anything that their child can do wrong. Denial is not morally right, but emotionally and psychologically understandable. Delusions are often the only means of survival for many people. The disgrace here is in the justice system and the "free" press that Americans have, as a whole, become delusional. The press ought to let the mother tell her story, and the judicial system, and anyone else. That is responsible reporting. But then. we no longer have a free press or responsible reporting.
