What Now?
Anyone have any info on a rumor that an Officer's spouse shot and wounded a burglar in their house tonight? And that an exempt member attempted to have her arrested on UUW charges, and when the Detectives refused, he sought a Log Number (the old CR) on the Officer for "failure to secure" a firearm?
Because if this is true, we are sure everyone would be interested.
UPDATE: Can't seem to nail down an event or RD# yet.
UPDATE: According to a couple of people, 006 District. And it's in the 24 hour report?
UPDATE: Apparently, it's the duty status of the Officer involved that is leading to the rumor mill and reality combining into this steaming heap.

this exempt should be fired or demoted for incompetence. what say you McCarthy?
I true, an exempt with no common sense - and an exempt who refuses to "have our back" as McCarthy instructed. Therefore, an exempt who should not be trusted to make impoortant decisions - AKA someone who needs to be returned to their civil service rank.
Well, if it's true, thank God she had access to that secured weapon (and I'm sure it was properly secured against children and their mischief) and knew how to use it.
Failure to secure? Seriously? It sounds like that weapon was EXACTLY where it was supposed to be.
Balless prick of a boss! See a Cop's wife is the keeper at home while he is busy on the streets. Way to my dear!!
Supposedly happened in 004. Nothing at all about this on Chgo Breaking News site. Someone sent me a text about it around 6:30pm. Never heard another word about it until I read it here.
Huh????? So if I have a spouse (obviously over the age of 18), why shouldn't she be able to defend herself in a residence? Secure this! Any boss that thinks otherwise is a fucking goof!
Good job to the Officers Spouse! Hope all os going well with them!
If its true about the boss, FUCK HIM!
"Because if this is true, we are sure everyone would be interested."
<><><><><><><><><><>
How about: if true, this piece of shit exempt needs to have his or her ass handed to him or her eight ways to Sunday.
Attempt to confirm. If confirmed, out the miserable cocksucker and lambast him or her mercilessly until they issue a public apology to everyone involved.
AND THEN DEMOTE THEM BACK TO THEIR CIVIL SERVICE RANK FOR BEING SO FUCKING IGNORANT.
Enough is enough already. This shit has got to stop. We have enough to worry about to be concerned about some gold star hack that isn't worthy of playing Cops & Robbers trying to stick it in the ass of a copper's wife that defended herself from what actually sounds like a home invader. And then to try and jam up the responding officers? Unfuckingbelievable!!
Please make sure this one doesn't die until it's officially confirmed or refuted, SCC. This one got my Irish up.
It better not be true! Who is the exempt?
gotta be in mt, greenwood, only a clout baby sgt. would make that call,
I keep my firearm secure.
My wife knows how to unlock it and how to use it (much to the dismay of some of my friends, but we'll save that for another post).
I fully expect her to use the firearm if she needs to and while I hope this isn't true, would not be a bit surprised if it is.
Ok- wasn't there, but if true...
Charges? Assinine and wrong.
Log number? If it was registered as a duty weapon, thats probably what is supposed to happen, not saying I agree with it, but I believe that is the G.O. ...
Administrative action by an exempt against an Officer for the Officer's wife using his sidearm in an emergency situation to defend herself and the home?
Hmmm... It's an emergency...
Something ugly just climbed over the fort wall and not to have tea and scones either.
By virtue of marriage, could she not be considered "duly deputized" to take possession of of his weapon and use it in his stead/absence?
What if the Copper was home and somehow shithead got the drop on him and the wife ka-boomed shithead instead?
Isn't there a passage of state law covering and exempting those "duly deputized?"
The lefty lib-tard, "wah! don't fight! give it what it wants and it'll go away!" thinking has infected the exempt ranks.
Notice that these mouth-breathers aren't content anymore to hit a lick and get gone... They stick around and entertain every twisted notion in their corroded peanut of a brain... These scenarios can and often do turn very bad.
Not sayin'...
Just axin'...
The exempt echelon are a bunch of idiots.
*Hey boss! Look at me turn a Copper's life upside down! Can I have ANOTHER gold star? Huh? Can I?*
Too much overall clout gaming and ass-kissery to obtain a gold star and not enough time doing actual Police-y type stuff.
The exempt member zealously sought to put a Policeman's head on a pike and exposed the officer and spouse to potential civil harm.
We reckon the exempt member would have been waiting at the hospital to be first in line to shit-talk about "Failure To Secure" right after the Copper received condolences from the E/R staff...
Thank God that was NOT the case.
Just flat out wrong and chilling in it's intent.
Does "Self Defense" and "Castle Doctrine" mean a damned thing here?
Just run a cover spread for both soiled bowel-rag newspapers declaring Rahm's intent to lobby Springfield and have Chicago Policemen and their families declared as three-fifths human and fit only for indentured servitude.
Good on the spouse for handling her business like a boss.
Sounds right up C.W.'s alley.

Anyone in a command position that would do that should never have been a boss or even a police officer for that matter. If true they don't know the first thing about survival, good and evil, and freedom! If true this boss is a self interested dumb jerk that has no concern for family. If true McCarthy should strip him back down to LT. and put him somewhere where he has no contact with police officers. Shamefull AND stupid story!
If true, that exempt should be made an example of.
This idiocy has to stop.
Who is the exempt moron this time?
UUW? It sounds like some exempt needs to go back to the academy to re-learn the ILCS.
Log number? Idiocy...
Well, my wife has the key to my safe. Plus it's her fucking house as much as it is mine, UUW doesn't apply on a persons home/property/place of business...wait, a boss might have actually had to make a UUW arrest to know that. This job and department are a joke. I hope they sue and get loads of $$$$ out of it.
sounds like something that an exempt would do. clout rules!
Do Tell.....
Out the name of the spineless backstabbing jag off boss. This is what has become of our police department we leave our family member the means to defend themselves in their own home and some pussy ass ball less boss finds issue with this. Give the women the Nobel peace prize.
Unless the Po's wife is a convicted felon, she cant be UUWed in her own home.
One national embarassment after another, one civil rights violation after another.
Welcome to the Commie world of Rahmie!
this has happened hundreds of times in Chicago to people who are not related to cops. why should the practice be any different because a cop family member is involved?
If a cop actually refused a lawful order in this case, he will face the potential consequences.
The firearm was secured. The burglary was a failure (any guess as to the description of the perp /s). They should leave this one alone.
I could believe anything in this day and age on the CPD. My response would be "It was secured. It was secured in my locked house." If any of this is true then I commend the detectives for telling this useless asshole exactly where to go.
Race card? ?
OT- But just as important. Is there a pattern of burglaries specifically targeting P.O's homes on the Northwest side?
If true, that would be another boss with no balls. A far too common sight nowadays. What is the spouse suppose to do? get burglarized, raped , and killed?
If true, our wrath should be merciless!!
They'll probably want to see her FOID card.
As far as I am concerned it was SECURED in a LOCKED home that no one should enter without permission. Good job! Someone breaking into our house when I am here alone is my biggest fear. Hearing this validates that a weapon at home IS the answer.
A Chicago Police Wife
I got word that it happened in 006. NOT 004 NOT 022
FOP should organize a protest at exempts home , let his neighbors know , he's a merit clout
my wife can really swing a wooden spatula with great force and it stings for a good couple of minutes--- she learned this skill from my mother-in-law--- for a burglar, I could see ditching the spatula and going to the pistola for a well placed shot to his forehead or crotch--- I really can't believe that a boss would try to pull this on a cop's wife....
Perfect example if true, as to why I have De-Policed and consider myself retired on duty!
Fuck this Dept. and City!
No Balls Exempt! Hey Stupid Exempt: What about the right to protect yourself in your home? You stupid FUCK!
Da Pelon
This Exempt Officer should be stripped immediately for incompetence!
Da Pelon
Almost all of the exempts are merit promotions- so what would you expect.??
no story on the gun running, feeb mole, arab copper thats in call back now, really???
Please vet this story and if true post his name and photo.
Make him as well known as Derrick King.
If this is true, it's SICK.
All these screwy laws law-abiders must fullow and then the law protects people like this clout-fuck and Derrick King????
The world has gone insane.
-not a cop
I work in 004, I would know if something like this occurred in my own district. No, it did not. Where did this rumor derive from? Can someone simply look up the background law to a circumstance as this and put an end to the "if's" of this story? I know there are officers who have passed the Bar.....guys/ladies?
Sounds like something a CPD exempt would do!
Exempt:
Exempt from the rules, regulations,
general orders, and in a lot of cases
state law.
Exempt from common sense.
Please add your own.
Nothing in the news so far?
2 killed in late night shootings on South Side
Chicago Tribune - 51 minutes ago
Two men in their late teens were killed in separate shootings on the South Side overnight, Chicago police said. The first slaying occurred at about 9 p.m. Tuesday in the 6900 block of South Princeton Avenue in the Englewood neighborhood, police said.
18-year-old fatally shot on South Side
Chicago Sun-Times - 1 hour ago
The Cook County Medical Examiner's office, however, said Coleman, of the 13000 block of South Evans Avenue, was shot in the chest and taken to the University of Chicago Hospital, where he died at 9:03 p.m.. Area South detectives are investigating the ...
Well to play the devils advocate some would say the law is the law boys and girls. Why should it not apply to your family? Plead your case with the judge when you have your day in court cuz ya know...the exempt is just "doing his job" as they often say.
I mean many of us endorsed this very behavior of nit picking on joe citizen trying to exercise their rights to such things as free speech so it shouldn't be a surprise that your superiors would use the same tricks on you.
I'll bet they even told the offender "I'm just doing my job" to justify it all in their own minds so that they can come to terms with their conscience and remove the guilt.
How about doing what's right and not hiding behind the "I'm just doing my job" bull which is essence a shifting of blame to your superiors like they made me do it, it's not me I'm just doing my job following orders.
Yeah I know. There's the law and there's what's morally right.
At what point do we sell out our values and just "do our job" do what you are told even though deep down you know it ain't right.
You want special treatment above the law. You're part of the problem. Change the law or get the law off the books. We do the same thing with Illegal immigration and now with pot possession so that the clouted ones can pick and choose who to enforce the laws on.
Like for example if a Chick-Fil-A comes to town and the alderman or mayor don't like the guy. All those normally non-enforced laws now apply to him right at will?
Corrupt rigged system of bullshit and it doesn't feel so nice when it happens to us now does it?
I taught my wife to use every weapon I have in defense of my families safety in event of an unwanted guest. Whoever exempt would do this, first order of business would be to speak to that boss in the alley, then go and resign from this rediculous job.
Demote this merit POS to P.O.! He obviously can me any decision correctly
Sounds like it would have been a nice 1983 action if arrested.
Why was a convicted felon in 7 allowed to protect his bar during a robbery and have charges dropped but not a wife of a po. I guess anyone associated with the police lose thier rights to defend themselves Ass of a boss if true

And who's to say she didn't unlock and load the weapon when she heard the animal at the door?
Reading this creates a whole new level of distrust in ANYTHING the CPD puts down as policy.
This exempt should be relieved of duty - not just demoted back to civil service rank - fired.
WHY? Because it looks like they don't have a clue. Where is the Chicago media on this?
Oh I know - following Rahm at the DNC Convention. So many cheerleaders and groupies - not enough hardcore jounralists.
I have made it a point to avoid spending any money in Cook County on anything.
This bureaucracy of incompetents has to go. Now.
Not a LEO, JAFO
Where is the FOP???????????
This prick does not even know the law, how sad.
Off top SCC, but this to is important. New cleanup crew that works inside the 008th District, both looked like thugs, so a curious P.O. Looked up the dudes name, get this..... Over 20 arrests, and 5 FELONY convictions!!! WTF, this dude had access to lock up, tac office, let alone the front office. Needless to say he was booted from 008, but I'm sure just put somewhere. No one knows this, but Rahm got rid of the Union cleanup crews!! Now look what we get! Please check up on these mutts.
what did this commander want her to do? Get raped and killed?
I hope she is ok & 100% comfortable with the good decision she was forced to take. I'll buy her a beer.
gotta be in mt, greenwood, only a clout baby sgt. would make that call.
For your info, whoever made THIS comment is a TOTAL IDIOT! Sergeants can be meritoriously promoted, however, I believe they said it was an EXEMPT RANK. That would be COMMANDER and above. Nice going Asshat. Get to know and understand the hierarchy of the department. Again another officer who sits behind a desk and thinks they know the department then opens their mouth and makes all LOOK BAD.
Ummmmm, SECOND AMENDMENT anyone !!???
Go a head and charge her!! MEGA lawsuit
Bring it, Commander Skippy, you are Box 1
After what happened in St. Louis, Mo to Megan Boken, and also to Kelli O'laughlin in Indian Head Park, IL, my fourteen-year-old daughter, and my wife understand that they WILL, in my absence, dispatch the savage with one of my fully assembled and loaded firearms. And no triple merit exempt will bring the savage back.
This needs to be verified. If true that "boss" has to be outed. Every P/O should know exactly who this jagoff is and don't do shtt for him/her.
Does anyone know if Rahm's wife has her Chicago gun license and FOID ??
Would someone shed light before this blows up!!!!!!!!!!
The wife should be exempt from prosecution under the Hale DeMare act.
I'm calling BS on this one.If any exempt were that stupid,his/her name would be all over this page by now.
Two thoughts.... 2nd amendment and castle doctrine, maybe the ultra smart exempt should have perused those two things first before wanting a homeowner charged for 1. Possessing a firearm within their own home and 2. Using that weapon to defend that home from unwanted invasion.
New state law says affirmative defense if illegal gun used to protect self inside of own home. No charges. That's the law.
Holy Shit !!
Another clout baby who earned his/her promotion under the desk of a political hack.
If an incident like this happened in their home, I have to wonder what they would do besides shitting their pants ?
How about everyone stfu until this is verified. We all know today's bosses are everything you say they are. Why get so fired up about a RUMOR? Take a pill already.
Nothing will happen to the boss. You can be sure it was all a "misunderstanding". Wanna bet the Exempt's wife wouldn't be hassled if she shot a burglar. Clout still rules in Chicago. Fucking unreal!
My wife, my children have access to my weapons. they are trained, card carrying FOID, NRA members and authorized to defend themselves and their home against any threat. Come arrest one of them after an incident like that. You got to be kidd'n me. Were in worse shape then I thought. I am a detective and I would not arrest given that example. Don't rush to judgment don't know the whole story.
This should help you guys:
720 ILCS 5/) Criminal Code of 1961
Section 7. Justifiable use of force. Use of deadly force justified if the person reasonably believes they are in danger of death or great physical harm. Use of deadly force justified if the unlawful entry is violent, or the person believes the attacker will commit a felony upon gaining entry.
Section 7-2(b). Prevents the aggressor from filing any claim against the defender unless the use of force involved "willful or wanton misconduct".
Illinois has no requirement of retreat. (People v. Bush, 111 N.E.2d 326 Ill. 1953).
wow the rules don't apply in 20th dist.The desk has 3 po's one is on the schedule as a foot person sitting at the desk with an injured foot and the ss supv hides in her office instead of sitting at the front desk as directed .
OT The new show on National Geographic channel Chicago Trauma was a eye opener.
What kind of hack supervisor would try to do that to a policeman's wife? She should get a medal for defending herself and the house, not a uuw charge! Whoever thought that one up is total clown and should never be allowed to supervise anything again, except a mop and bucket! Where the hell do we live that we are not allowed to shoot an intruder in our own home without being subjected to an inquisition and trial? And as for the mutt that broke in the house, how long is his rap sheet?? How many instances where judges reduced sentencing and nullified cases to allow him to be on the street again??
Please Please don't letthis fade away.........need to be verified one way or another....
Not true.
Please find out that exempts name people like this should be held accountable for their stupidity. Nice job MRS. don't ever give up your right to defend yourself because of some dumb ass kissing boss who could never do what you did!
WTF??? Yet a 92 year old WWII vet can shoot a burglar with a .22 rifle and nobody tried to arrest him? Someone is in your freaking home and you have no idea if they're going to rape, kidnap or kill you and you're not allowed to shoot??? C'mon!!!
It's enough that you guys have to worry about getting home in one piece. Now you have to worry if there is snyone breaking in while you're at work? Sorry, if the only thing in the house is a bazooka I'm going to protect my kids first, than myself. What do you think of that Mr. exempt??
It has reached the point where I am ashamed to tell anyone that I am a retired Chicago police officer. I tell everyone that I am a retired city sanitation worker who cleaned toilets in the projects. At least that why I can have some self respect.
Got the text too but can we confirm?
Yes it's true. The 004th District Commander asked for charges.
My husband is on the job and works nights. I have our kids at home with me. I applaud this woman for defending herself. God forbid this happened to us, it isn't going to be me or my kids harmed... it will be the intruder. Count on that. My family lives in Texas. You don't break into homes there unless you want to get shot. It's a shame how it is in Illinois. Too many rights for criminals and they know it.
Worked in 012 back in the 70's and one night ,before cell phones,got a message to call home. The wife thought someone was breaking in and wanted to know if the gun was loaded and how to fire. Make sure they know how if you leave one at home.
Shitty thing to do, but it is the Order. Easily Exonerated or Administratively Unfounded...unless it goes to IPRA.
the democrats have removed GOD from there platform. dickhead durbin said it was a trifull.
something strange here Cant nail down a RD no? No way can it be hid when a person is shot during a burglary. News would be all over any person being shot in Chicago
Well hey the DNC wants to know if you're any better off Chicago?
Well let's see.
The Feds gave us a tax break on our payroll taxes, better known as our FICA social security money -- then Illinois immediately grabbed all of that money with a state income tax increase before anyone could see the difference in their take home pay check.
Thereby good ol' Quinn and Madigan and crew transferring the money from our personal retirement funds to the state of Illinois treasury. Hoo-ray for them and eff you!
Hey but you don't miss what you never had right? That's why you have to move fast. Never saw a penny of it.
Stay tuned for the Social Security is going broke much faster than expected reports after Nov. elections.
Then the State of Illinois closed mental health clinics, cut seniors health care and closed prisons and is now in the process of mass public sector layoffs.
The Sanctuary city of Chicago better know as Rahm-allah-land raised fines fees, licenses cost, parking, taxes and water rates. Then they took away free CTA rides for seniors on the CTA and are now in the process of cutting service on the CTA so that the packed buses are even more packed while telling us that the service cuts will make things less crowded. ha! Seriously.
The homicide rate is up 50% over last Aug and the ER rooms are jammed packed with shooting victims. But like the CTA cuts will provide less crowded trains and buses we're told crime is down.
We are giving out million of dollars in corporate tax breaks that are funded by our stolen social security money in order to cover up the massive corporate layoffs.
Oh-look we are saving no-no-no not laying off we're saving. ( Just like the CTA service cuts and crime rates..hahaha.)
Sears cut jobs, Motorola cut jobs the tax break money is a cover up.
The DNC points to some 24 million so-called new jobs Obama created but don't look at the trillions of dollars of debt created and spent to create those jobs. What does that come out to about $100K per job? Oh and don't look at the 50% increase in the food stamp caseloads from about 31 million people in 2008 to the record of approx. 47 million people today.
That's not quite 50% but hang in there because the year is not over and we have the back door illegal immigrant amnesty program that will begin to show up soon in the numbers so don't worry.
And if that don't do it remember that we are now in the process of massive US postal worker cuts. Oh but don't look for all them to show up in the unemployment reports because the way we get around that is to just offer early retirement to some and cut the rest of them down to one or two days a week with no benefits. Think I'm making it up? Google "USPS cuts"
We got no teacher contract and no police contract to hell with the kids and the future workforces education. What we need is a $55 million dollar park renovation, miles of $140,000 per mile bike lanes, and a phony attempt at speed trap camera for the school zones that will likely never get off the ground but provide yet another distraction away from other clouted deals going down.
We lowered interest rates with the Fed reserve game of so-called "quantitative easing" and directed the media to hammer through you heads that this is a good thing because it frees up money for the job creators to create jobs. What they don't want you to look at is that those lower interest rates that they manipulated also hit ever single retirement account with an investment in the bond or treasury market. Retirees money has been stolen through this transfer of wealth. Retirees planned on maybe a 5% interest rate can now only get 1.5% on ten year t-bills. Now do the math on that and see what it does to you fixed income or your pension growth plans.
So yeah...Any better off Chicago?
Other then that everything is just peachy!
Maybe the burglar was a family member of the exempt....
A.M. ASS BANDIT HELD ON $500,000 BOND
Prosecutors: Robber demanded victims hand over their shorts
August 27, 2012
"An armed robber demanded that two victims on the West Side give him their shorts...
"Twice on Saturday morning in the West Garfield Park neighborhood, David A. Ray, 29, sprang from a vehicle, brandished a handgun and asked a male victim to hand over his property, including his shorts...He was arrested after shooting at one of the victims, who pursued him, and then fleeing from officers...
"On Sunday, Judge James Brown ordered him held on $500,000 bond on a slate of charges including armed robbery and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
"About 7:15 a.m., Ray jumped out of a green SUV driven by another person, approached the first victim and demanded his shorts before hitting him in the head with the gun, Engebretson said. He took property from the victim and left in the SUV, Engebretson said. Around 8 a.m., he did nearly the same thing to another man, but that man tried to chase Ray, who shot at him and hit his vehicle’s windshield...
"Less than an hour after that, police responding to a call of a man with a gun at a gas station nearby spotted the SUV, Engebretson said. The driver sped off and, after failing to pull over for two miles, stopped and both men jumped out of the SUV in the 5000 block of West Fulton Street...The driver escaped...
"In the SUV, officers found a gun, two wallets, ammunition and a cell phone..."

Speeding around in SUVs (or jumping out of stretch limos) to do armed violence, but can't find a store with fresh produce. "Food desert."
Hey, Mayor Ballerina. Where's our Fruit Bus, huh?
Remember, you promised.

If she had a FOID. HALE DEMARE. What kind of idiots are running the CPD. Even if she didn't have a FOID, she has the positive defense of necessity.
File a Lawsuit against that Boss and CPD. CPD cannot dictate what you do in your own home. If this wasn't the ultra corrupt Obamaland of Chicago, this would never be an issue. Everyone has the Right to Self Defense against intruders into their home, except here in the Socialist Mecca
About the only thing she could possibly be ch'd with would be failure to possess a valid FOID card, a class A misdemeanor.
Not saying exempt was right, just saying that at best she might be guilty of a State misdemeanor and its very unlikely given these facts that she would be convicted.
Why are there NEVER any Demotions of incompetent Screwball Bosses on CPD when they screw up with incompetence and bad judgement? No wonder the Department is terminally screwed up. Seems like these Bosses all know too much about inside misconduct of High-Ups, or they're doing the kickback $'s to ??? Take a guess. Typical Double Standard Leadership here in Obamatown.
"Can't seem to nail down an event or RD# yet."
The home invasion/shooting right in Obamaville go down the crapper too?
Don't expect to find our million dollars at this rate. Hey! Dr. Gary Slutkin! What did your "CeaseFire" do with all that money?
Man this City and State are sooooo Socialist
Notice how every post is.."If true?"
So you can't even defend yourself in YOUR OWN HOME now??? Lovely....
This story doesn't sound believeable. Someone would have posted the RD and better details of the incident by now. What does sound believeable is a boss doing something like that. As we all know treating P.O.'s like shit gets you noticed and promoted.

I have the amended version to that MCC code. It reads "GO FUCK YOURSELF" I'm not afraid of no stinking MCC code
off the topic the school teachers stick together better than p.o's.
Anyone know where I can get a Romney Lawn sign from my local(South Side) Republican Organization.I see a few out there.
CPD policy?
Punishment first.
Abiding by the law... a distant second.
Allowing common sense and decency to influence exempt member decision making?
Not even part of the equation.
Chicago Policemen... No better than slaves.
And just like slaves, Chicago Policemen are told every damn day they're on this job to forget about justice and being treated decently in this life.
*Your reward in in the Sweet By & By, office... Now fifty lashes for daring to want to be free...*
Work the job like everybody is your enemy and fixate on mental, physical and financial survival.
come visit chicago and check all its welfare ghetto rats and illegal immigrants that hardly abide by laws that liberals pump out, i guess the laws only apply to working american citizens. that should have of been rahm opening for his speech.
If a log# has been generated, you can bet your ass this officer's life will be turned inside out by IPRA...
There is no one in the chain of command with good damn sense enough to see this for what it is and make sure the appropriate decision is rendered when the adminstrative stuff is done.
We see this officer being made to rot at 376 for years for this silly shit.
The other worry is Anita Alvarez picking this up and trying to make hay out of it.
All checks and safeguards have been intentionally destroyed and The Policeman has no one to protect him and his family.
Sounds like something Phat Phil would do
So who's the RETARD that does not know how to type up a to-from ?

Charges not likely
Could verify it did NOT happen in 004. 006 had something, but not sure the details.
In this day it is hard to dismiss the rumor that a CPD exempt would order the arrest of any citizen, especially a LEO's wife for defending herself in her house.
As others above have cited "Castle Doctrine."
Unfortunately the international socialists have eroded that basic tenet of human rights.
In England, people have gone to prison for shooting armed burglars in their own homes. In a recent incident, a couple is facing charges over shooting an armed burglar. If convicted they could get 10 years. The burglar could get 3.
That my friends is what the Democrats, Socialist (same thing)and Obamaists have in mind for the USA.
If the LEO's wife was in such clear violation of the law, then the exempt rank, as the ranking supervisor on the scene should have made the arrest. But like most bosses, he lays the sh1t on someone else.
As for the exempt being demoted for incompetence: Come on!!! Why should he be demoted for incompetence?? He wasn't promoted in the first place for competence.
most exempts and white shirts on this job now are balless scared pussies....
Mine is loaded and under the pillow at night! Dare anyone to break in and walk in my bedroom!!

this has happened hundreds of times in Chicago to people who are not related to cops. why should the practice be any different because a cop family member is involved?
If a cop actually refused a lawful order in this case, he will face the potential consequences.
9/05/2012 05:16:00 AM
OK dumb ass, listen up. She's not just related to the cop, she's married to him and lives in the same household as him. He is REQUIRED to own the gun due to his job. The gun is a registered duty weapon that he is legally authorized to have by the City of Chicago and the State of Illinois. Does that explain to you how it's different? Should she have hit the intruder in the head with a baseball bat instead? Would that be better in your small mind than her shooting him with a legally owned gun that was sitting in her house? It saddens me how ignorant the general public really is.
About the only thing she could possibly be ch'd with would be failure to possess a valid FOID card, a class A misdemeanor.
Not saying exempt was right, just saying that at best she might be guilty of a State misdemeanor and its very unlikely given these facts that she would be convicted.
9/05/2012 03:03:00 PM
How so? The weapon doesn't belong to her it's owned by her husband and stored in the home. She just used it for self defense just like she could have used a kitchen knife or a baseball bat. She wasn't on the public way or in her vehicle. She was in her home. If she impaled the burglar with a fishing rod would you check her fishing license?
Does no one know how to look up major incidents anymore. Plain as day, happened in 006 on 05sep12. What's weird is that it wasn't classified.
It is true about the burglary and shots fired. Not sure about exempt but it was in the major incidents this morning. Not very hard to find.
The entitlement society now wants police to write notes excusing their kids for being late for school. Guy comes in to the station. 2nd day of school. Wants the desk crew to write him a police report saying the kid was late for school because of him, the father. Doesn't work, they all overslept, of course, probably up all night.
I couldn't believe my ears. He actually stood there and kept asking for the report, finally said he was in a car accident but didn't want to say it because he has no license, naturally.
The kid is learning at the foot of the master, late on the second day and dad wants the poleese to help him with his lie. Good future ahead for that kid. Mom, of course the mom, is at work. Dad hasn't been offered a position of the right high stature and salary for his taste. A CEO spot is sure to open up soon.

Hey Scc, a day or two ago joseph coleman, a 18 year old "honor student" was shot and killed on the southeast side. Well, doing a little research online and joseph colemans was a "rapper" named JOJO. He was enemys with Chief Keef.. You know Chief keef.. the Kid who pointed a gun at the police then the city let him perform at the taste of chicago. So, JOJO created a rap video two days ago and posted it on twitter facebook and youtube. The video is called BDK and is directed at chief keef. Well, the young JOJO was shot and killed and about a half hour after the murder chief keef starts posting twitter messages mocking how jojo just got murdered and pretty much claiming how he may have played a part in it. I have a link to the crap that got this idiot killed. but if you watch the video it shows how gunned up these guys are and what they are getting killed over.. also, its a great view for the liberal media to look at what the "hero" chief keef and his little high school friends are REALLY about. I would ask you to make this a thread, just so those types can see what we are up against and the blatent disrespect they have for EVERYONE. Be careful boys and girls... thats a lot of guns.

You are retarded. I hope that you are not a cop. You are an embarrassment.
And here is another link Scc which shows our "honor roll" student JoJO confroting LIL reese who is chief keefs boy.. after this video was posted JOJO was killed that night. its just more brick squad / lamron GD crap in englewood. I know many coppers dont care and really either do I, but i really want the media to see this. I want the public to see these videos. I want them to know that THEY(the thugs) are the problem and NOT US! Here is the second video showing them confronting eachother and shouting gang slogans and threatening to kill eachother... and yep, hes the one who got killed. Hopefully the detectives are aware of these videos. All of this is happening in 007.

I never shot anybody.
But she did. She actually did shoot somebody, back in WV, long before I met her.
Of course she didn't tell me that story until we were married.

The post clearly stated " attempted to have her arrested" for UUW, this exempt is a person who never was a street cop and promoted way past their IQ. We all know we cannot and have never charged anyone with UUW when in possession of a firearm in their residence. The only chargeable offenses were failure to register, no foid, or UUW by convicted felon. Now as for the log number who the fuck is any p.o. , sgt, lt, or exempt to tell me and prove my weapon for home protection was not secured before my spouse made it ready for a criminal attempting to harm her or my family. I welcome that log number, bring it bitches!
All this bullshit going on and most of your who complain will still vote for the liberal politicians that put many of these bosses In their spots!
Yes it's true. The 004th District Commander asked for charges.
WRONG!!! It wasn't the 004th it was 006. I doubt it you will get many details about this unless you know someone in 006. After the BGA "Bullshit government Assholeation" shutdown one blog, I'm sure they would love to hang another p.o.

This is either a clueless copper or a boss with delusions of grandeur. Just in case it's not, here's a quick lesson for the uninformed. Chicago Police Officers are not required to obey UNLAWFUL orders. Get that through your fucking heads. Would you shoot an innocent 3 year old because some moron boss is trying to impress himself by ordering you around?? Fuck no. Why? Because it is fucking UNLAWFUL. Does anyone need a clearer example??
Not a fan of our department or bosses, but this is not the whole story. The Officer is stripped. His wife while I say I am happy she had access, shot a weapon, did not have an FOID card, may have struck the offender and this department did all it could to cover him and his family. She was not arrested, the detectives and the district worked together. All of this talk is just opening us up for further investigation and a legal issues, especially of the offender she shot surfaces. Anything to case more havoc before our contract. Posters need to get the story right. The Exempt members followed what the Detective Division suggested. Nothing else was done and no deviation was made period!
"720 ILCS 5/) Criminal Code of 1961"
--Detective 9/05/2012 11:00:00 AM
Thank you, sir!
Section 7. Justifiable use of force. Use of deadly force justified if the person reasonably believes they are in danger of death or great physical harm. Use of deadly force justified if the unlawful entry is violent, or the person believes the attacker will commit a felony upon gaining entry.
That "or" is a game-changer.
Paraphrasing -- Entry does not have to be violent if the person believes that a felony will be committed if entry -- through whatever means -- is allowed to occur.
This has the potential to cut down on the number of CDTP and trespass cases.
That would be a good thing, huh?
Free seat to the officer's wife at the next personal protection course offered at GSL Defense Training ( http://www.gsldefensetraining.com ) to help her with her technique, aim and basic tactics to help her shoot even truer.
Kudos to her for a job well done.

It's actually The "Hale DeMar" act.
Maybe we shouldn't jump to conclusions. Maybe the boss had no intention of screwing anyone but is simply following procedure/closing any loopholes an outsider could use to bring discredit to dept procedures or to the member involved. Paper is used as a valid record of actions taken. It never hurts to follow through on procedure or covering everyone's actions. This officer nor his wife will be disciplined or see a day in court. I don't see anything wrong with protecting ourselves both by the actions the officers wife took and by protecting our members via documentation and procedure.

(720 ILCS 5/24-10)
Sec. 24-10. Municipal ordinance regulating firearms; affirmative defense to a violation. It is an affirmative defense to a violation of a municipal ordinance that prohibits, regulates, or restricts the private ownership of firearms if the individual who is charged with the violation used the firearm in an act of self-defense or defense of another as defined in Sections 7-1 and 7-2 of this Code when on his or her land or in his or her abode or fixed place of business.
(Source: P.A. 93-1048, eff. 11-16-04.)
However they may be charged for no FOID card if applicable....:
Unless specifically exempted by statute, any Illinois resident who acquires or possesses firearm or firearm ammunition within the State must have in their possession a valid Firearm Owner's Identification (FOID) card issued in his or her name.
My weapon(s) are all loaded and ready t go. I've trained my cat and dog to fire upon any intruder. I have to admit the cat is a better shot though.
We lowered interest rates with the Fed reserve game of so-called "quantitative easing" and directed the media to hammer through you heads that this is a good thing because it frees up money for the job creators to create jobs. What they don't want you to look at is that those lower interest rates that they manipulated also hit ever single retirement account with an investment in the bond or treasury market. Retirees money has been stolen through this transfer of wealth. Retirees planned on maybe a 5% interest rate can now only get 1.5% on ten year t-bills. Now do the math on that and see what it does to you fixed income or your pension growth plans.

Sucks, but don't be a trick. The PO can't do much if their foot is messed up so it won't affect ur job. Be stronger and let this stuff roll off your back.
Well to play the devils advocate some would say the law is the law boys and girls. Why should it not apply to your family? Plead your case with the judge when you have your day in court cuz ya know...the exempt is just "doing his job" as they often say.
I mean many of us endorsed this very behavior of nit picking on joe citizen trying to exercise their rights to such things as free speech so it shouldn't be a surprise that your superiors would use the same tricks on you.
I'll bet they even told the offender "I'm just doing my job" to justify it all in their own minds so that they can come to terms with their conscience and remove the guilt.
How about doing what's right and not hiding behind the "I'm just doing my job" bull which is essence a shifting of blame to your superiors like they made me do it, it's not me I'm just doing my job following orders.
Yeah I know. There's the law and there's what's morally right.
At what point do we sell out our values and just "do our job" do what you are told even though deep down you know it ain't right.
You want special treatment above the law. You're part of the problem. Change the law or get the law off the books. We do the same thing with Illegal immigration and now with pot possession so that the clouted ones can pick and choose who to enforce the laws on.
Like for example if a Chick-Fil-A comes to town and the alderman or mayor don't like the guy. All those normally non-enforced laws now apply to him right at will?
Corrupt rigged system of bullshit and it doesn't feel so nice when it happens to us now does it?
9/05/2012 08:58:00 AM
Who has wronged you my brother? You need to see someone and get peace. You've got some anger issues and are distorting things.
The sad part is that even though no criminal charge would ever stick, the CL will probably be sustained.

Tell me one place he has not worked the street. Tell me one time he has had a cush job. Please, I call bullshit. Funny how no one on the scene is calling this bluff. That is not what happened. He told us to see how the Detectives wanted to play it and go from there. The spineless two sergeants could not find their ass in a toilet did not know what to do. IAD is who said for a CR# to be gotten for failure to secure to not only protect this department from another law suit, but to protect the officer who is not assigned to a district and who has his own issues that called for him not to have a loaded gun in his home. I agree, more to this story than is being shared. It is always easy to to go with BS than find out facts.
What law suit are you going to file against the Exempt, for not locking her ass up. I would love to see that one. Keep opening a can of worms for this family. The police officer barely has a job now as it is.

You do not know what you are talking about. Pension plans MUST keep assets in conservative asset classes. The drop in rates has a DIRECT effect on retirees and defined benefit pension plans.
Great idea. Have the retirement fund manager move all the money to stocks and wait for the next 40% drop!
An Investment Manager...
Just wait a minute... maybe this is just procedure, maybe even a smart move if done right.
Isn't a C.R. Log initiated every time an officer fires his/her weapon and there is a hit on a human being?
It may make sense that a C.R Log be initiated for the use of an officer's weapon in the officer's home by the officer's wife/husband/significant other or any household member.
Just a procedural move since the scumbag is almost certainly going to sue everybody including the Department.
Findings of the C.R. Log: EXONERATED.
Maybe this is just procedure, like if you get a gun stolen, or an unintentional discharge.
Well that just goes to show some of the idiots we have as leaders in the dept. from the rahmweasel to peabrain garry to the dumb fuck exempts down to the birdbrain sergeants!!!!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
We get it from Illiniois State Law....Go learn the meaning of the word "possess" as outlined in the FOID statute......
Just holding of the weapon is possession.....has nothing to do with who owns it etc...thats why ranges require FOID on all shooters....same if your wife is home alone with your weapon in the home unsecured, she is in possession.....better have a FOID
You are not a cop or shouldn't be one if you don't understand that.
Just clarifing the law, not saying any wives should be arrested......
This may not be as sinister pr ball-less as you might think at first.
ANYTIME... a Chicago Police Officer's firearm is involved in a shooting, no matter how justified a C.R. Log will be issued.
The gun may have even been lost, stolen from or even legally of by the officer. If it is connected to a shooting incident and is found to be registered or linked to a Chicago cop the incident will get a C.R. Log to investigate the matter,
Some gray-haired wisdom for you is that if you dispose of a firearm, give it away, sell it to another cop or to a licensed dealer, there is a small pink and gray Firearm Transfer Form (no fee for this) to be filled out and sent to Gun Registration.
Stay Safe, look over how your weapons are store at home and are your family members properly prepare to use deadly force if needed.
P.S. to Gray-haired Wisdom.
This is not as stupid as it sounds. If you leave a handgun for home defense make sure it is something the other person can physically use. I had a small 9mm S&W that I could make tin cans fly plinking out in the boondocks. But it would continually jam if my wife fired it due to weak wrists. So it was a simple, no frills revolver for her when I wasn't home.
To the guy whose wife shot someone in WV before they got married and did get married before telling him of the incident. First of all, sorry for your loss. Second, maybe it was her first husband who she shot. Wives have a way of not telling their intended everything.
.thats why ranges require FOID on all shooters
NOT TRUE. In Illinois only one person in the party needs a FOID. Some ranges are stricter BUT that is their policy.

I agree that we all need to stand united; however, it's career service, not civil service and most of the exempt currently in positions made rank (with the exception of captain which is "senior executive service") off the list for the ranks they were promoted to. Those who have such a hatred of white shirts and especially exempt for whatever reasons, reasons they themselves don't understand, would LIKE to believe they were all merit promotions to their respective ranks but the fact is, the current crop and most of the recently retired exempts were all promoted from lists they were on. Sorry to burst your bubble.

We get it from Illiniois State Law....Go learn the meaning of the word "possess" as outlined in the FOID statute......
Just holding of the weapon is possession.....has nothing to do with who owns it etc...thats why ranges require FOID on all shooters....same if your wife is home alone with your weapon in the home unsecured, she is in possession.....better have a FOID
You are not a cop or shouldn't be one if you don't understand that.
Just clarifing the law, not saying any wives should be arrested......

You better go check the laws again because most of what you're saying is wrong. Just look at 720 ILCS 5/24-9 as one example... If it doesn't apply to minors under the age of 14 using the weapon in defense of self and home then how does it apply to an adult spouse living in the home? I am a cop and I understand that you don't need a FOID card to pick up a firearm that is legally owned by the head of your household and use it in self defense inside your residence.
Federal Reserve is not a govt. entity nor controlled by the govt. Retirement Fund money managers must watch the market and move funds from one asset class to the next. Their failure to do what they are educated and paid to do is the crime. Just sayin.
You do not know what you are talking about. Pension plans MUST keep assets in conservative asset classes. The drop in rates has a DIRECT effect on retirees and defined benefit pension plans.
Great idea. Have the retirement fund manager move all the money to stocks and wait for the next 40% drop!

Mr or Mrs Investment Manager...if you think bonds are the only conservative asset classes, you're not a very good manager. Maybe you work for the companies that put our money in consistently stalled investments.
Oh shut up already, E.P.

I am sorry to hear that you are a cop. You are just retarded. "legally owned by the head of the household" and therefore someone else can posses it?

Apparently you can't read either. I just posted the state statute for you and you still don't get it. Let me spell it out for you in plain English. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE A FOID CARD NOR WILL YOU BE CHARGED WITH SUCH A VIOLATION WHEN YOU USE A HANDGUN IN YOUR OWN DWELLING IN SELF DEFENSE AND SAID HANDGUN IS LEGALLY OWNED AND REGISTERED BY SOMEONE LIVING IN THAT DWELLING. Can you get that through your thick skull?

I pulled the statute. You are still retarded. It is not even close to what you are saying. Now, even more, I cannot believe that you are a cop. Moreover, you cannot read plain English. I do not need (nor want) you to spell anything out for me. Believe me, I am very well trained in the academic area. You posted a statute that you cannot read. Do yourself a favor and get help for your illiteracy.

It is you sir that comprehend what you're reading. You're probably the exempt that tried to order the detectives to arrest the wife for UUW and not possessing a FOID card and were told where to go by said detectives because you're an ignorant fool. Now go away mister well trained academic that thinks you can charge people with not having a FOID card when they're defending their life inside their home and the gun is legally owned by a FOID card holder.
All the police who this site is dedicated to know who he is, so what did you think, you solved a great mystery, no you just confirmed what many of us already knew, you are trying to help foster a lie that we all know here in 006 is fabricated by idiots like you. You are also hating on his right hand EP. She has more class than you to argue anonymously and guess what, you still won't get the chance to try and use what you think you've got to get what you want. She will still be blocking the door as you continue to make up BS. I don't blame you, he is the finest Commands that we have ever had.
