New Saturation Teams Up?
So they announced these new teams Thursday, accepted applications Friday and have the teams listed by Friday afternoon, we assume for deployment Sunday?
Where are they getting these people? Where are they getting the cars to use? Radios? This thing seems to have been thrown together pretty quick.
Anyone with info, the readers would appreciate it.

The Shitty part is that these teams have already been predetermined based on whoever worked for the certain sergeants in the past. Why not make it fair. Lets be honest, not many pro active police anymore, last thing we need is a bunch of do nothings hogging up spots that should rightfully go to the working police. Just saying.
A Dog from Area 2.
As long as it wasn't me, I could care less. The only thing here that's saturated is the Supe's liver.
Can I get an event number?
they took Six people reverse seniority from 012.
VRI getting cut.. Cars are getting taken from them. South saturation teams are pulling out of 61st st central from 51st and went worth and north from Belmont and western. The money to be saved is from the VRI cuts. Overtime on VRI will be near impossible now unles u have 20 plus years now. VRI will only be 50 people on the weekend
Po's Coming from the districts, there are plenty of beat up old cars at the areas, if not they will make the districts give up a car. At least in area south there will be a second day team deployed.
Downtown put an order out earlier this week that Each district has to give up a certain amount of bid spots and send that person back to the watch. Between the districts and mass transit the # is about 70. Of course none came from "special clouted units".
24-30 will go to sat teams the others will go to closed market on a 90 day detail.

I don't know about saturation teams, but they're dismantling most of the long term teams at homan and replacing them with buy bust teams comprised of old farts who haven't been on the street in years. Combine that strategy with sending the greenhorns to foot patrol in the hood and you have the makings of a disaster. But hey, the CompStat lackeys still keep pumping out useless numbers, so I guess their spots are secure. Or not. I hear there are competent civilians waiting to take over administrative duties in the next sixty days. No one is safe. Not even the Sergeants.
It's called making it happen in a "New York Minute".
That's the way we do it ... Big Apple Style!
Word on the street is Finkle footed the bill for these new teams and equipment. These elite units will be driving new Dodge Chargers and Cadillac Escalades.
Rahm get rid of McCompost! Mr Magoo could do a better job!!!

Its the New Mobile Strike Force Saturation Deployment Platoon.
The Dept can hop to it when they get in the mood to do so.
200 more cops on the beat but no-one said anything about putting them out there all at once at the same time.
We can rotate four coppers out there each day for the next fifty days and there you have it, we added 200 coppers on the beats.
Only need 4 radios and two cars.
Steve Georges to be the next Superintendent.
I wonder if the teams were already picked beforehand? Hmmmmmmm. smells fishy.
After the shooting, witnesses observed an intoxicated white male subject with a bad mustache pushing the victim's vehicle from Lake Shore Drive onto Interstate 55. It was unclear if the subject was involved in the shooting sources say.
this is funny shit...
Out of Homan?
Deputy chief-of-patrol Steve Georgas said law enforcement agencies across the nation are searching for ways to use their resources more efficiently.
McCarthy is clueless. Rahm & him do everything and make ever excuse or come us with lame ass ideas other than fixing the broken courts in Chicago and hiring the couple thousand officers we're short.
some of those cars came from Area Central RBT which is already short on cars. Great frickin plan.
They're filling them spots with the people who are getting kicked back to the streets from 35th street.
I heard people are going based off reverse seniority
From 'CALPSO LOUIE" Farakhan's body gaurds, led by the infamous phather phlager and mc gorgon . Where else?
Ot- fyi...a CFD Battalion chief and her driver stopped a vehicle in the 011 district at 0100 hours. They thought the driver was a 501 and took his keys from him. They flagged down a passing Cpd car and told them to make an arrest. Can you CFD heroes mind your own fucking business. The guy wasn't drunk. Maybe I should start doing 501s on off duty fireman that I seem to come across quite frequently.
Resumes were asked for a few months ago. Supposedly new teams were being formed. They didn't take as many as they said and called guys in whose resumes they already had and of course there were some chosen ones. Calls went out Wednesday to start on Sunday. Beats midnights in some shithole.
Cars? They are going to use public transportation.
Radios? There might be some old radios stashed away. (Or they are going to use one radio (or as many as possible) per group.)
Supervisors? They only need one supervisor to log the sets of officers.
Meeting place? They can set up shop just about anywhere. They might do it at the academy.
But the academy has spare radios. So, they are probably meeting at the academy and taking public transportation to the assigned spots.
(If this sounds too far fetched, then consider that it has been done before. They are going to reuse an old strategy.)
Almost all are reverse seniority. They were called on Friday told they start Sunday and were told they had no other information. Typical CPD bullshit, make it up as ya go.
Just off probation kids.
Hey garry, let's saturate the getto with desk dollies that haven't seen the street in years. SAM. OK
Anyone that signs up for this needs to remember that the city will stick it in your ass whenever they feel like it.
And will hang you out to dry.
Just ask the guys from TRU.
from the Chicago Sun-Times:
"Steve Robbins, former Patrolman's representative on the Policemen's Annuity & Benefit Fund of Chicago is back in custody of the Cook County Sheriff’s Office, Sheriff Thomas J. Dart said. Dart had admitted Friday “we let people down” by mistakenly allowing a convicted murderer to walk out the front door of his jail. But he vowed, “we’re going to fix this.”"
I couldn't think of who the Supt. looked like til the other day. He's almost a twin of j. jonah jameson. Must be a NY thing.
Reverse seniority (for you civilians that means the least experienced police officers who are not in probationary status) is being used. This is, of course, because the disbanding of SOS, MSF, TRU, etc. has taught every non-brain dead officer that you don't volunteer for this crap. If you do, know that you are volunteering to bend overmand take it(...........).
Officers got calls at home Friday morning that they were going. When they asked, "Where do I go, and what time do,I need to be there?" they were told, "We don't know. We'll call you back when we find out."
Soooo...City says, "Jump!" Officer says, "How high?" City replies, "Fuck you, we'll tell you when we feel like it!"
I am going to state an unpleasant truth. When the city disbanded MSF and TRU then that is when things started to fall apart. 10% of the department does the work for the other 90%. In my district I work 1st watch. In my district a small group of officers are pulling the weight for the whole watch.
Cooter will be in charge of Team 6

How can that count as taking officers from behind desks and putting them on the street? Weren't they on the street already?
The two McStupid's probably figure, 'hey, the media and public fell for this once, let's try it again.'
And Ferguson has no clue as to what jobs civilians could do, since he's not the police. Especially when you consider Chicago's labor pool as opposed to the 'burbs.
God help us all. I don't know how those two idiots sleep at night. Although GarBear has been looking mighty raggedy these days!
OMG i feel so bad just heard we had a person shot in 20. I feel if I had writtin just ONE more contactcard i could have stopped it.

That's brilliant. Too bad the guy they stopped didn't kick the crap out of both of them. Firemen are wanna-be police (just kidding, we love you guys--but hate the assholes).
It's an old idea, we had Saturation Teams working out of the Areas, also we had teams that worked Hot Spot areas across the city.
Remember TRU and MSF?
It is obvious that Rahm is secretly running the show but that was when we had over 11,000 blue shirts
Like we've been telling Rahm, outsiders can't run the Chicago Police Dept. He will get no respect from his subordinates and will not understand how criminals operate here.
That's why you look like a fool Mr. Mayor
I heard people are going based off reverse seniority ...
I could put together a better strategy and I don't have law enforcement background.
How dumb is the executive management of the CPD?????
Reading this blog used to be interesting and informative. Now, it is more aggravating and pathetic to read how people in a risk-taking job have idiots for bosses. (save for one or two exceptions)
We spend SO much money on people who are supposed to be in charge, who don't have a clue as to military leadership (and yes CPD should be run more like a military organization and not as a hack Cluster F@#k).
I am prior military and I believe I could outshoot, out-strategize and command CPD better than the last two jokers (and that is being nice as labeling them).
As a taxpayer, I cannot believe all the waste that we have in middle management CPD no-minds that got their job by merit (political hack) promotions.
Then you have a couple of military reserve or retired military officers (even a Colonel or two) that are only sergeants? They should be commanding a district or an area.
You manage resources, but you lead people. Most of the CPD "management" do not understand that distinction.
Leadership starts at the top and when you look at the organizational structure you can tell how strong a leader you have.
First-rate people hire first-rate subordinates. Second-rate people hire fourth-rate subordinates because they only want yes-men, they are insecure in their own position so they definitely are not going to hire anyone that will outshine them. Perfect example - CPD
I truly feel sorry for those who wanted to be a good CPD copper (throughout my years, I have known several and they were all good people who were dedicated to the job).
I guess this is the "new normal" for this country. Reward mediocrity, promote incompetence, and discourage dedicated role models.
This is just the beginning. Theyre looking at all tac teams numbers. So those districts with tax paying citizens can really kiss there police goodbye now. And those districts with anything more than 3 tac teams are the first to go. So 12/13, 19/23, 2/21 will all be down to 3 teams by spring
But who's going to watch my kids?

taking public transportation to the assigned spots
===========
one would think having some police presence on public transportation would be a good idea.
yet, I sense the poster sees this as not a desirable thing.
why is that? just curious.
one of the numerous not a cops who passes through here now and then
Well, looks like they finally woke up and took away Mark W.'s company car; 'ya know, the one he drove daily to the part timer at channel 7?
So now we basically have MSF and TRU again by area? Remember Supe, having a ready force to send in to a specific area doesn't work, hypocrite.

FYI, Tactical Barbie may be right handed but if she's not right eye dominant then it would be correct for her to use a rifle left handed. Try holding a rifle and aiming it with the opposite eye and you'll see. But I still think she's full if herself anyway.
It was more senior people from 014, including tact. The reverse seniority nonsense will be with the PPO foot patrol crap.
Its a mess, they were given 24 hours to fill the spots-and they expect the spots to be filled by the right people

Doing things in a New York minute has obviously not been this guy's best ideas. Meeting thar Dolly behind the club, blocked by his SUV (not really blocked well), testifying in the manor of a historic re -write, blaming today's crimes on slavory issues' that no one alive today had anything to do with, calling sober off duty officers weak and bragging about his drunken on and off duty escapades and sexcapades to unwanton and disgusted ears, sexting officers with text and images that would make Ron Jeremy puke, combing that magnum p.I. hair lip at a dinning table as the food arrives, ordering his driver to get hair dye fifteen minutes prior to a major news confrence, telling his soon to be x thanks for the memories as she boards the plane with samuel l jackson (snakes on a plane reference) to Laguardia, eating forty raw oyster in eight minutes to impress a Australian shelia at a dive bar on Ontario and then belching the brine in a smoke like mist before slamming down two snorts of whisky ( he called them Big apple mouthwash), annd yelled Im ready now,......hey Mcdumbideas why don't you go back to the Big Apple and on the way pick up a "slice" of humility pizza, do the Jersey Turnpike and shove that ""slice "" right up your flammable arse.

Just FYI,
In case you weren't aware, Rifle position isn't based on what handed you are. It's determined by your strong eye.
New teams are only focusing on contact cards and above.
And how many people did the Academy lose? That place is full of ghost payrollers who walk in and two hours later walk out- never to return for the day!
Hey Pam Zeckmen want a story - go hang out at Target by the Academy - it's full of staff from the Academy!
How many cars did Driving school contribute to the vehicle shortage. They have about 20 up there that sit idle most days. One week a month (maybe driving school class)
This is the Democrat Police version of Obamacare! Add 20 million homeless, then add 12 million illegals; of course no mention of more doctors or nurses; and look forward to equality of service; All Bad! Deploy cops who have been hiding for years inside, put recruits on foot beats and the result: 1.Medical Roll increases legit and and pretend. 2.Somebody will probably be killed either accidentally or by a felon. 3. Retirements will soar, again! And the quality of service in tax paying neighborhoods will be non-existent. Wow, this is Real Progress! The only positive here is that Rahm is shown as the bully failure that the little guy really is.

100 percent correct brother. I recently retired and the new kids on the block in those units did nothing about the true crime patterns going on.
In the old gand crime unit' in the early 1980', we made the banger' and their dope houses miserable. They dropped their eyes when they seen us. Now, the punks spit at the squad and the new breed take it. No time otj training the same.
And yes sir, the CPD is doomed ! Weis was not so bad after all !!! This drunk running the show is a zero.

Hey cranky old hog leg nobody cares about the old days.They have cameras all over the place.Next time i give somebody a wood shampoo for spitting im gonna testify in federal court that i was possessed by the spirit of ole gang crimes south.I don't doubt you guys ruled by fear but thats only because you would beat the fuck outta people different time and age simply can't be done now.Stay retired and have another Scotch and forget this clown act department.Oh and that old ass leather vest cover in the summer months is very cool i'm super jealous.
2/02/2013 05:04:00 AM
Look at this argument.
In the old days the police cheated and lied and beat offenders until crime went down.
Today, the police do nothing because they can't cheat, or lie, or beat crime down, so they use it as an excuse to do nothing.
Take a real police dept like LA, where police really have to pass tests to get hired and where they are really expected to do good work.
They have scandals. Policing changed for them. What do they do? They persevere. They do a better job with less police in a much more populated city in a much larger area.
Chicago? If all police were exchanged for CTA operators, there'd be no difference.
Good ol Alfonso addressed the 1800 hr VRI roll call last night. He told us the mayor has our backs and he supports us in taking the streets back(you should have heard the snickers). He also said we need to stop using alligator arms and get out there and get your hands on people. Oh, and the best one of the night,"we need to stop being pussies'". He said we need to get back to being the police and remember, the mayor supports.i almost shit myself. Hillarious....
Fool me once...
They have the manpower. All the house mouses will take a spot from a P.O.in a District who will move over to the saturation team. Various other spots were eliminated such a 4 P.O.s from the Training Division, 2 from the Mounted Unit, CTA O"Hare will go back to the O'Hare Unit, 018 and 001 have to give up 3 each from their foot or bike patrols.
The saturation Unit will use 9 passenger vans to drop off the Officers to their designated spots and the Sgt will log from the van.
One radio per 2 man team.
Another gel ppo swat deal... who would take a spot which most didn't want? those who believe they are good cops but can't even perform at a district level... Hillarious! From my district some couple year wonders are going, which was due to reverse seniority. Why volunteer for something that you know nothing about? Sorry the new kids are leaving and I wish them the best, but I really don't believe units like that should "order" cops into it. I say leave ours kids alone and call back the weis youth from the north side districts who would love to be in a unit. On the flip side, i'm glad to see this one loser leaving us. Wonder who is going to get stuck working with this freak. I got 9 more years left of this BS.
Excuse me for asking
But aren't these "saturation teams just a new title for basically the old TRU & MSF units, which people have said were needed in the first place

Efficiency?? How about we get rid of "Deputy Chiefs of Patrols" ??? What a waste of money!
Grasping at straws.
When you put officers on a saturation team on reverse seniority, their impact on crime will be ZERO.
There are still a few "hard chargers" around that would VOLUNTEER to join a team, mess with the gangs, and try to make a difference, but most have been burned after disbanding MSF and TRU.
Another problem is IPRA: this agency is criminally negligent in the way they handle beefs against cops, and recommend 30-days-pending termination for stuff that would get a 1 or 2 week suspension a few years ago. With THAT hanging over your head, who would want to do "pro-active" policing against gang members, who love to file bogus IPRA complaints, with IPRA siding with the gang-bangers?
The system is broken: soft judges give out minimal sentencing (if at all), early-release from jail or prison, wimpy Anita Alvarez's joke of a Felony Review, the refusal of city/county/state gov't to encourage conceal-carry, a city that refuses to replace the retiring cops, a Department that won't back up the troops, and IPRA eager to recommend you get fired for practically nothing.
Rahm has a lot of power. He could use his influence in a positive way to affect the above issues, if he really wanted to. If he did something like that, the murder rate would definitely go down, and almost INSTANTLY.
But instead, he just asks for more gun control (which never works anywhere it's been tried) because he is hopelessly a Socialist-Tyrant who is only interested in power and control, and betrays his insensitivity to homicide victims by his sins of omission (see above).
John Kass's recent article stated that the gang crisis in Chicago belongs to Rahm Emanuel, as so it does: Rahm: you should resign in disgrace, since you do not have the integrity to address any of the above issues which all have a part to play in the gang crisis and homicide count.
reverse seniority in 010
The NEW idea from Garry; lets call them the SOS-TRU-MSF-SAT TEAM. What an awesome NEW idea to saturate problem areas with officers. But lets not forget, my house goes unprotected and will never see a beat car go down my alley and slow cruising down the front of my street hunting. The ghetto rats get alllll the police protection and service.
Rahm and Gary still can't admit that crime is up but yet they keep trying to add new "strategies" and add more officers to the street to stop the crime rate that is up!!!! Double speak as usual. Hey media do you understand this bullshit yet???
Lets see a list so I can get a good chuckle.
Anyone know where these teams are going to have to report to everyday? Homan? Areas? 61st etc?
These teams were not predetermined. What a load of crap. I have zero juice and made no phone calls. I don't know my new sgt or know anyone at area north. I heard about it, submitted a to/from and got on.
look up some of the stats for some of these people...87 contact cards for 2012..no uuw or pcs arrests in their whole entire career!

---------------------------------
this isn't the first time these glory boys have been sticking their nose into shit that doesn't concern them. i think they've been watching too much "chicago fire" where on the show the firefighters get shot at constantly, get into foot chases with offenders, and boss the cops around. make sure you get all their information and put it on every arrest report. when they have to start going to traffic court every month for 2 years without getting o.t. and having to skip side jobs they'll start minding their own business real quick.
Yeah good luck, remember Mc. BigMAC is not gonna be here for much longer, and whenever a new regime comes in what do they do, is kick people out of these temp teams and sent them back to there unit of assignments. Where we all know people all of a sudden are miserable once again and become dogs cause they are salty for being canned. This is just the modern day TRU, MSF once again!
They are practically begging Sergeants to apply for positions in the detective division, OCD, and other "sweet" spots. That never happened in the past.
Remember, you hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil. You & your partner do your tour and go home to your family. Nobody in this Department is going to back you, however if something goes wrong, they will give you lots of time off, or fire you.
If any boss tells you to stop being a wimp and start "putting your hands on people" and then tells you that, "the department and the mayor have your backs," tell them No Thank You.
In this current society, YOU will get sued for doing so. If it even looks like you may have violated someone's civil rights, you will get sued.
And knowing that, ask yourself, do you really want a jury of 12 to make a judgement on your work, and said jury has never walked in your shoes? Would you trust the City's attorneys to put on a better case than say, Loevy and Loevy? At that stage of the game, it is a show and nothing else. and you are the star. It won't be about what you did, it will be about what the lawyers can prove you did or didn't do.
Don't take that chance. Just do your job. do it right.
McCarthy so much hinted on the news today that he wants the police to violate people's civil rights. in summary and not verbatim, he said (in reference to the hadiya murder) "we" the police are stopping people for the sole reason that they have a "propensity" to commit crimes, without any further basis. sounds like a fourth amendment violation to me.
Be safe and Be careful brothers and sisters.
I love all the do nothings that worked the desk, or have never been the police going to these teams....and lets not forget the two year wonders. What happened to the old sat teams that actually worked and brought in good shit, now all they are is glorified contact card teams.
For those who said they went by reverse seniority are absolutely silly. This is nothing but selection by personal favorites that is how this department has always been. it will not change because those who are in charge do not care to make things run efficiently.

Somewhat off topic, but did anybody hear of mass combined military&police operations in Miami and Huston TX? Seems obongo and the US government are in training to put down any resistence to obongos wishes.It was broadcast on O'riellyes fox show. It shows helicopter gunships firing blank rounds above Miami FL. Also massive police movements on streets? Same happened in Huston TX. If this is the case I and many more people in this country would consider these personell TRAITORS.Has anyone heard of such "training " here? Watch your backs and families, if this is used against our citizens , we are in a real trick bag. Google this "training events" on fox news!
All these new teams when is the next sgt classes? I'm 56 out ;(

Rid departments of half of their chiefs comes to mind right away.
After seeing what they did to the MSF and TRU anyone that would volunteer for this is crazy. After they disbanded those units, they sent the po's to all shitty south side districts and without their partners. Also without regard to where they lived. Their track record is not good for taking care of PO's that bust their ass for the dept.
Came back from my RDO's and all of the sudden they have new sat teams? I didn't even have an opportunity to throw my name in the hat. This dept. is sooooooooo messed up.

Ot- fyi...a CFD Battalion chief and her driver stopped a vehicle in the 011 district at 0100 hours. They thought the driver was a 501 and took his keys from him. They flagged down a passing Cpd car and told them to make an arrest. Can you CFD heroes mind your own fucking business. The guy wasn't drunk. Maybe I should start doing 501s on off duty fireman that I seem to come across quite frequently.
Couldnt agree more and whats she doing with a driver. They lost those a while back or is she special Have her take the CPD test if she wants to play police or just check out a few fire stations if she looking for a few 501s
OT. I would like to thank the lazy 011th district police officer who immediately had to go to the bathroom when asked to search a female prisoner. Remember that when you are calling for help its most likely going to be a male that pulls the beast off of ya. Do your job.
I thought McCarthy said "the beat officer was the backbone of the Dept" and we don't need specialized units? But hey, "overall" come is down, right?

CPD OPERATION YO-YO COMMENCES --
"You're On Your Own" Baby.
Chicago Trib says:
More 911 calls won't get in-person response starting Sunday
Updated 44 minutes ago
The Chicago Police Department hopes to free up the equivalent of 44 officers a day by no longer dispatching cops for certain crimes, like burglaries and car thefts in which the offender is no longer...
--------------------------
You got robbed?
Sad day for you the robber is gone what do you want us to do about it?
YO-YO baby. You're On Your OWN. Your bank balance isn't high enough.
Crime's down since we put those additional 200 cops on the beat eh? No 9-1-1 calls dispatched, no event numbers, no compstat numbers period, right?
200 more ADDITIONAL cops freed-up from their desk jobs and 9-1-1 calls being cut too so that they can spend their time in the doughnut shop instead I guess.
Lemme guess.
This is like a page out the Milwaukee Wis. PD handbook.
Whereas when the BATF sets up a sting operation somewheres, like in Lincoln Park, opening a store front where they can trade guns to: "get them off the streets" AND THEN, the store gets robbed and some fully automatic Colt M-4 .223 machine guns go missing as well as an assortment of Smith & Wesson 9mm handgun, Sig Sauer .40-caliber pistol. etc.. No one will be dispatched because the offender is gone.
Google it. Happened in Milwaukee recently.
Now it's all hands on deck in Milwaukee as the Fast and Furious crowd and senators feign outrage like when ATF armed 2,000 drug cartel members in Mexico.
We are gonna put 200 more officers on the streets and we are going to stop taking 9-1-1 calls so that these new officers can stand guard in their foot posts -- on that block where all the RICH elite Obama supporter graduates from Harvard and local elite business owners live....am I right? Our tax dollars at work.
Ya know, kinda like taxpayer provided elite personal body guards like the ex-mayor and some of the aldermen get for free as paid for by the taxpayers.
That's what this is about.
Protecting the wealthy!
Check the 9-1-1 callers and see what their bank balance is before you send a car.
Double check to see if they are on any political campaign donation list or have clouted connections before you send a car.
This shit makes me sick!!
Now we have the Sun Times trying to sell us on how we are all like Newtown CT because some 15 y/o rich kid got shot.
Don't get me wrong. I feel bad for any kid that gets shot.
However, NONE of the thousands of people shot in Chicago and the hundreds of people killed in the last year or so matter?
Oh but this elite kid that lives near Obama's home, and went to one of Rahm's much valued charted schools needs to be put on a pedestal and worshiped as some sort of saint.
It's BULLSHIT!
How you think some of the other families feel watching these shootings going down day after day after day and not a damn thing that is effective is done to change it.
This kid gets shot and the mayor is about all knelled down to that neighborhood crying alligator tears jumping thru hoops asking what can I do for you.
Anyways, this broken "Broken Windows" fallacy is going to teach the mutts that the laws matter by the city stopping to send cars on calls and we are all suppose to turn in our weapons and feel safer?
This is your "Broken Windwows" strategy GARRY? Take care of the little things to show that the laws matter? YOU my friend are full of shit with this propaganda.
Good ol Alfonso addressed the 1800 hr VRI roll call last night. He told us the mayor has our backs and he supports us in taking the streets back(you should have heard the snickers). He also said we need to stop using alligator arms and get out there and get your hands on people. Oh, and the best one of the night,"we need to stop being pussies'". He said we need to get back to being the police and remember, the mayor supports.i almost shit myself. Hillarious....

I don't know about saturation teams, but they're dismantling most of the long term teams at homan and replacing them with buy bust teams comprised of old farts who haven't been on the street in years. Combine that strategy with sending the greenhorns to foot patrol in the hood and you have the makings of a disaster. But hey, the CompStat lackeys still keep pumping out useless numbers, so I guess their spots are secure. Or not. I hear there are competent civilians waiting to take over administrative duties in the next sixty days. No one is safe. Not even the Sergeants.

By saturation teams you mean they will be wearing adult diapers?
Remember that female astronaut that did that cuz she wanted to drive without stopping to confront her lover -- in Fla. I think it was.
So yeah. Rahm should order adult diapers for everyone so he can put out yet another PR to please the Harvard Grads on how it's gonna save an estimated "X" number of officers, free them up, because they won't have to leave their foot post for a personal!
The Supes bartender gave me the 411. The new teams will be getting a title. The Strategic Tactical Deployed will start Super Bowl Sunday. These Std's will be sent in to areas that crime isn't so bad and insert themselves like a virus to leave previously unblemished areas marked up. Some will show signs of the STD's all the time, some will only show signs every month or so...
Also included in the IG report was the fact that CPD had over 300 supervisors which were uneccessary ( deputy chiefs, xo, commanders, etc...) and that CFD had 700 supervisors which were not necessary. So if you eliminated those positions with the average raise of 40,000 dollars more police could be hired and you wouldn't have to try and reduce the number of fireman on the truck, but I guess the media refuses to ask such questions even though they read the report. Let the clouted keep eating up tax money and our pension....

Have you ridden the CTA lately? Plus, the police are the police EVERYWHERE they go in that costume. Meaning if there is a fight or someone gets robbed or hurt on the commute over to the spot you're assigned to..it kind of interrupts you getting to your spot in a timely manner. Nevermind mind the fact you spent a portion of your workday in a non-assigned spot, traveling there.
Police are looking for three assailants after a 24-year-old man was robbed and then shot in the foot early this morning in the North Kenwood neighborhood.

First off, leave CFD alone. Just because of the actions of one, your going to cast stones at the rest... The same can be said of a few of our own P.O.'s. don't lump us all in with one bad apple and secondly, Since when did CFD personnel become your commanding officers. they may have suggested, but you certainly didn't need to take their orders.

It's too weird.
Why not make it fair.
You do know that this is CPD, right?
So these new teams are not what everyone seems to bitching about. And of course they are talking out of their ass because someone told someone else that they heard this or that. First of its a detail not an assignment like MSF was. Second ill work some normal hours for the sake of my family so I'm not a total piece if shit on my days off. I can always go back to the shit hole on midnights that I just left. I got 10 years on and don't kid yourself the only reason I did this so I can spend quality time with my kids. And so did my partner. Neither one of us knows anyone nor did we make calls to do anything. Most of the guys going back to these teams are MSF and TRU guys tired of driving or working midnights.
Look at this argument.
In the old days the police cheated and lied and beat offenders until crime went down.
Today, the police do nothing because they can't cheat, or lie, or beat crime down, so they use it as an excuse to do nothing.
Take a real police dept like LA, where police really have to pass tests to get hired and where they are really expected to do good work.
They have scandals. Policing changed for them. What do they do? They persevere. They do a better job with less police in a much more populated city in a much larger area.
Chicago? If all police were exchanged for CTA operators, there'd be no difference.

There are 0 pool cars at area north. And several north districts are down 4-7 cars and they were told to give up at least 2 cars to deputy's. also city has stopped paying Ford so no new cars in the near future. New Recruits, welcome to the crappiest department in the country
Came back from my RDO's and all of the sudden they have new sat teams? I didn't even have an opportunity to throw my name in the hat. This dept. is sooooooooo messed up.
Maybe thats because your a douche bag with shitty numbers and no juice. I mean its probably for the best i still cant believe that there are people on this dept. Stupid enough to volunteer for these things. Clearly you havent been on the job long enough to remember what they did to those tru and msf guys....and if u are then your dumber than i thought.
The guy who thinks LAPD does more with less and is better is an idiot! LA is serviced by more agencies than LAPD. Far as how they work, if they are that great go there. I'm tired of reading your verbal blowjob!
P.O. Randy Stevens, 018 District said...
When you put officers on a saturation team on reverse seniority, their impact on crime will be ZERO.
There are still a few "hard chargers" around that would VOLUNTEER to join a team, mess with the gangs, and try to make a difference, but most have been burned after disbanding MSF and TRU.
Another problem is IPRA: this agency is criminally negligent in the way they handle beefs against cops, and recommend 30-days-pending termination for stuff that would get a 1 or 2 week suspension a few years ago. With THAT hanging over your head, who would want to do "pro-active" policing against gang members, who love to file bogus IPRA complaints, with IPRA siding with the gang-bangers?

TO ADD...
I agree Randy but ...
We need some percentage of Immunity (on a federal level) like the judges have so we are somewhat indemnified by our action(s) or inaction(s) in the course of doing this job as sworn peace officers while expected to serve this public and prevent violent crimes from occurring as expected by our administration!!!

Cfd batt chiefs drive themselves.if a chief has a driver they are an exempt rank< kiss ass>.
CFD Battalion Chiefs don't have drivers. Now it could of been someone higher up the that. DDC or ADCP(both appointed positions) which both get drivers. But I do agree they should mind their own business.
They always make exceptions for certain people, maybe she doesnt know how to drive or the neighborhood is to bad that shes expected to drive thru
They are practically begging Sergeants to apply for positions in the detective division, OCD, and other "sweet" spots. That never happened in the past
Pure BS you are soft if you believe that
Former state senator and mayoral candidate James Meeks does not believe either Emanuel or McCarthy will or should wear the political jacket for the gang violence. That’s because they don’t control the “inherent problems” behind it: failing schools, a proliferation of firearms and single-parent households, he said.
“By the time a child — especially an African-American male — reaches the 7th grade, he’s already three grade-levels behind. By the time he’s a sophomore, he drops out. Combine an uneducated kid with a fatherless kid and you’ve got a dangerous product of the street at 15. It’s that product of the street that’s causing all of this violence,” Meeks said.
“Unless the White House, the mayor or somebody comes up with a program designed to reach products of the street, we will never turn it around. You’re dealing with hopelessness. These young people don’t have any hope or any fear
meeks has said it in a nut shell!
The current mayor and Supt are both ignorant of what has been going on during this current mayor's administration, and during well over 30 years in Chicago.
Gangbanging is not some natural disaster, national tragedy, its what Meeks said social problem so its up to the aldercreatures to stand and deliver for their constituents.
Risk the political fall out of their utter failure of our elected officials to put more boots on the ground.
Or wait and lets first make
our state,
county
and city
a sanctuary city.
Lets pass gay rights,
bike lanes,
take corporate donations.
Offer "initiatives", and hope it is not our family member, friend neighbor, or tourist who becomes a shooting victim or homicide victim!
I love all the do nothings that worked the desk, or have never been the police going to these teams....and lets not forget the two year wonders. What happened to the old sat teams that actually worked and brought in good shit, now all they are is glorified contact card teams.
----or they are officers that put in their time and have 20 plus yrs on and want to stay in the office till they retire because they dont want to pay 600 dollars a month for medical insurance.....

You're name came up, but they decided they didn't want you.
0354, hear u loud n clear. U would have loved the late Capt. Joe Mullen. The dispatcher sent a female in from the street for a search, Joe asked the female y she was in the station and learned that the dispatcher routinely sent females in for searches. Joe blew a gasket cuz' there was a f/1, who worked the desk and would disappear. Joe found her hiding in the upstairs courtroom and she soon hit the medical, then transferred out of 007. She knew she would never work the desk in 007 again. Btw, this is from a working female.
CHANGE NOT PART OF NEW STRATEGY
"The change is not related to plans by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and McCarthy to shift what they indicated was as many as 200 officers from administrative duties to beats..."
Sure it is. The strategy to diminish REPORTED crime.
a CFD Battalion chief and her driver stopped a vehicle in the 011 district at 0100 hours. They thought the driver was a 501 and took his keys from him. They flagged down a passing Cpd car and told them to make an arrest.
No problem. The CFD just became witnesses...they're going to court.
Is court time in the CFD budget?
Protecting the wealthy!
Check the 9-1-1 callers and see what their bank balance is before you send a car.
You know the people you're talking about already have the alderman's/DC's cellphone number...they'll always get police service.
Ok boys get ready for the fashion police, with 10 mag pouches on there vest, 5 guns all over their body, super hair slick back, and the cockiest attitude on ths fucken department. Hey dont worry I wont hate, i'm just mad my hair wont be as slick as you all with all that hair gel dripping!
Used to work hard,up until I saw the way things were going. This was before J-Fled got here. Arrest activity dropped 700% within 5 years. Got a few beefs. Was either exonerated or not sustained. Had good bosses back then. They backed you up all the way. The days of being the Rock em Sock em Police are no more. The Politicians and Goofball Bosses have the Chicago Police Department that they have always wanted. They should be happy about that.We have an narcissistic sociopath in charge of CPD that is totally clueless in law enforcement leadership.

2/02/2013 08:06:00 PM
Going to have to disagree here. While Meeks may have pinpointed the demographic that is the cause of most violence -young black males- he calls for the wrong remedy, as do you
Another social program is not needed. In fact social programs are what exacerbates the problem. Public Housing, public aid, public health, public education
What is needed is to eliminate public programs entirely, or vastly scale them down. Allow people to do things for themselves or else suffer the consequences of failure. The prospect of either starving or being placed into prison can work wonders. And if they choose prison, well like Sheriff Joe says "Vacancy Open"
"Sure...when you CPD wanna be heroes stop running into burning buildings"
So, we should ignore an " immediate " threat to human life, as opposed to a percieved threat, that could be called in to OEMC, and relayed to the police ???
No comparison! Oh, and your an idiot.
Have you ridden the CTA lately? Plus, the police are the police EVERYWHERE they go in that costume.

I am having a hard time understanding why it is bad to catch some minor criminal on a bus as opposed to somewhere else.
As for not being where one is assigned you pretty much get paid by the hour so what difference does it make? Especially since many posters here do not think where they are going is all that great of an idea anyway.
Battalion Chiefs do not have drivers. That was a deputy district chief. There is only one and she is a nitwit. Maybe we all should stick to our own jobs.

You don't have ten years on, because any place you could have gone to with 10 years from MSF/TRU you would easily get afternoons. Also if you had ten years on you would realize that most "details" will turn into assignments eventually. Good luck seeing your family working from 6-2 instead of the on mids when they are sleeping.

I guess in 99 when they had cops doing robberies of banks, and cops accused of killing gang bangers they were a much better police dept.
And don't forget one thing you freaking bozo troll, their county sheriffs have police powers so they basically have double the force you idiot. They may have 8 to 9 thousand cops but they make up for it because the sheriffs have the same authority to arrest unlike cook county rent a cops.
Don't tell me LA does more with less. Take away the county cops and see how they do. Stop talking shit you idiot.

So, we should ignore an " immediate " threat to human life, as opposed to a percieved threat, that could be called in to OEMC, and relayed to the police ???
No comparison! Oh, and your an idiot.

I would hate for someone to get hurt by a drunk driver. So to make all the firemen happy. I'll start arresting you drunk bastards. All the firemen I've given a ride home over the years!You might want to STFU! We can always lock you guys up and make the street safe! Now go play on your pole asshole!
Let them kill each other, just make sure there's enough red and yellow tape to keep the goons out. Go do your canvas where everyone says they didn't see nuttin. Get your RD#. Next.

******Great New Strategy
Oh goodie. 30 years on and Ive never been on a team. I wanna sign up and grab my M16 and go do some Sat work on Sat night.
Where do I sign up?
VRI getting cut.. Cars are getting taken from them. South saturation teams are pulling out of 61st st central from 51st and went worth and north from Belmont and western. The money to be saved is from the VRI cuts. Overtime on VRI will be near impossible now unles u have 20 plus years now. VRI will only be 50 people on the weekend
Damn! And I just got my activity up to their standards!
CARS? Who said the saturation teams need cars? What is done in NY is to pile 10-12 officers into a large van driven by the sergeant who drops them off on assigned walking posts for the tour. That is what is coming to this town.

Why not make it fair.
You're not from around here,are you?
In my district I work 1st watch. In my district a small group of officers are pulling the weight for the whole watch.
So, you want a friggin medal?
This, my mis-guided, self-important friend has been going on since I started over 22 years ago. I'm sure it was going on before my time and it will continue to go on after you retire.
But watch closely. The change comes fast. One day you are the hands on, lock em all up police and the next day you are the old dog no newbie wants to sit next to for the next 8.

Excuse me for asking But aren't these "saturation teams just a new title for basically the old TRU & MSF units, which people have said were needed in the first place

The Task Force was around before you were even born. Probably the original SOS, too.
No new ideas from McStupid.

“By the time a child — especially an African-American male — reaches the 7th grade, he’s already three grade-levels behind. By the time he’s a sophomore, he drops out. Combine an uneducated kid with a fatherless kid and you’ve got a dangerous product of the street at 15. It’s that product of the street that’s causing all of this violence,” Meeks said.
“Unless the White House, the mayor or somebody comes up with a program designed to reach products of the street, we will never turn it around. You’re dealing with hopelessness. These young people don’t have any hope or any fear
meeks has said it in a nut shell!
Yep, it's always somebody else's fault.
A new gov't. program will cure everything. Just like the current programs that started all this bullshit!
You don't have ten years on, because any place you could have gone to with 10 years from MSF/TRU you would easily get afternoons. Also if you had ten years on you would realize that most "details" will turn into assignments eventually. Good luck seeing your family working from 6-2 instead of the on mids when they are sleeping.
Go get some TRP's for the company MSF warrior.
Yeah I could have gone and worked afternoons in 5 and started at 2 or some other crazy time. No thanks I'll pass. Been there done that. You're missing the point. But if course I gotta have some hidden agenda behind my moves right. It couldn't possibly be because it works for my life. And you of course you know my home life and the hours my wife and kids keep. Thanks dude. See you around. And when it turns into an assignment I will gladly say thank you and move on my merry way somewhere else. Obviously you work days in the new and improved CAPS office. See you out there brother.

Then get your asses out of bed! Someone has to get those people out first. Aka "first responders". Then get there first asshat.
What and miss my dinner?
Why does the city need 50 aldercreaters? i know mine doesnt do shit for our neighborhood.
Yep. Mines in 36 and he is still MIA.
I say bring back the Task Force, I'll come out of retirement.
2/03/2013 12:05:00 AM
You would not recognize the department from which you retired. You would go home quite saddened and dismayed after a few hours. Even if your offer ever had the slimmest possibility of being accepted, you would be wise to stay away, far away. Enjoy your retirement and your memories.

Ot- fyi...a CFD Battalion chief and her driver stopped a vehicle in the 011 district at 0100 hours. They thought the driver was a 501 and took his keys from him. They flagged down a passing Cpd car and told them to make an arrest. Can you CFD heroes mind your own fucking business. The guy wasn't drunk. Maybe I should start doing 501s on off duty fireman that I seem to come across quite frequently.

Don't start no shit.

That's an easy DUI arrest. Get the CFD names, address'. They are the only witness to the DUI. You didn't even see him with the keys in the ignition. After six or seven trips to traffic court they will have a change of mind about traffic stops.

61 st central from the airport? Lol another know nothing!
-–-------------
Reading comprehension. Not 61st and central. area south will pull out of 61st street( the old 007) AREA central from 51st and went worth etc... Now go close the door in moms basement and read it again... Think for a few then understand... By the way, your moms meatloaf was decent

Not reading comprehension but a lack of punctuation!
Hey 821...... I can't search the female and I did look for her after the desk officer did the job to tell her to her face but she scurried out if the station to get another jelly donut.

Battalion Chiefs do not have drivers. That was a deputy district chief. There is only one and she is a nitwit. Maybe we all should stick to our own jobs.
You first

Quit beefing, we leave the cats for you
First off, leave CFD alone. Just because of the actions of one, your going to cast stones at the rest... The same can be said of a few of our own P.O.'s. don't lump us all in with one bad apple and secondly, Since when did CFD personnel become your commanding officers. they may have suggested, but you certainly didn't need to take their orders.
1)-welcome to the Abbate treatment
2)-#10 sued coppers because they didn't take his orders
Don't start no shit.

Looks like the CFD guy/girl started it
The Supes bartender gave me the 411. The new teams will be getting a title. The Strategic Tactical Deployed will start Super Bowl Sunday. These Std's will be sent in to areas that crime isn't so bad and insert themselves like a virus to leave previously unblemished areas marked up. Some will show signs of the STD's all the time, some will only show signs every month or so...
- This is some funny stuff, maybe the best comment ever.
I don't understand why you didnt search the female prisoner yourself because a real man wouldn't say this on a blog. He'd say it to her face.
Maybe because a female should be searched by a female
they have about 5 to 7 females working inside 017 district, dispatch will call a female off the street for a search.
Settle down cupcake!
My landlord was a cfd guy, used to come knocking on my apt door, ass drunk like no tomorrow. One it was funny, but seriously who does that shit? He is lucky I was cpd and understood or maybe I should of called his wife to get him off my porch. My point, we give you curtesy remember your place. You can assist but do not for a minute feel that you are better than us because neither Rham or this city gives a shit about you with a hero t-shirt. First they can take our pension, benefits and joy of working this job, but then CFD is next. Remember that.

It's always fucked up when a once helluva street cop (In A Real District) morphs into company hack of a boss. We came through 011 together...in Narcotics together. I can't accurately express my disappointment in what Al has allowed himself to become. Kinda saw it coming though. When he got passed over for Superintendent,in favor of another outsider, he should've respectfully refused the # 2 spot. But when he accepted said spot, after being shit on for the umpteenth time, to me, it spoke to his character, or lack thereof. When Eddie King was the ranking Black boss, he never allowed himself to be fucked over in any fashion, by any boss. And would tell bosses to "Kiss my ass" to their literal faces. Just ask Cline. In Al, some of us mistakenly thought we had the 2nd coming of Cheif King. How fuckin stupid were we?

That's brilliant. Too bad the guy they stopped didn't kick the crap out of both of them. Firemen are wanna-be police (just kidding, we love you guys--but hate the assholes).
God made the police so fire can have a hero
You bring up Eddie King in a complementary tone? Are you nuts? Of course he told the superintendent to kiss his ass, King had much more clout and the super could not have demoted him or reassigned him if he tried. King was the deputy on the west side by political design and her had his hand in every promotion of captain, and every assignment. He also stuck his two cents into every CR number and took care of those that he liked and fucked those that he did not. Thank god he nolonger is on the department.
I hate to say it, but this department has and has had for many years a culture of doing little or nothing. Only a small percentage actually go out and really work. The lazy know that there is nothing the department can do to them and they dont care. People get merit promotions and good assignment even if they are dogs.
The 2nd coming of Eddie King? Are you kidding me?
+++++++++++++++++++++
There will never be another Eddie King. A prince who took shit from NO ONE. Loved working coppers, hated dogs, appreciated the work, treated people fairly and didn't (as far as my experience) see color. I came on in 85 and there were some real good bosses, stand up guys like Joe Mullin and Charlie Mandell, and many others. I'm retired now, and it was fun back then, and I still had some fun till the end in 2010.
I feel bad that there are so many younger guys who missed these good bosses.
Stay safe out there.

And what deputy of any side of town wasn't a political appointee then or now? My point was, he took no shit from any boss, kissed no ass, and as has been pointed out by another poster, took care of the working copper. While it's true that no boss is or will ever be was loved by all, I'd take bets that for every PO who has your opinion of Eddie King, they're at least 10 others who share the other poster's and my opinion.
