- Violent crime is down in "hotspots" where at least 200 cops working overtime conduct nightly patrols, and 200 more officers could soon hit the streets to target other problem areas of the city, Police Supt. Garry McCarthy said Monday.
“It’s a small percentage of the population and a super-heated group of individuals who are constantly engaging in gunfire on the streets,” McCarthy said Monday.
Last month, the superintendent launched a “strategic saturation” program that sends the 200 overtime cops to 10 violent crime hotspots across the city each night.
So the number of cops on the street has a direct effect on crime? That isn't what he was saying for months and months and months, was it? We fully expect him to take more credit for Tommy Skilling's snowstorm later today as keeping down crime, too.
Here's another interesting observation from McReinventingTheWheel:
Here's another interesting observation from McReinventingTheWheel:
- McCarthy said a three-year crime analysis revealed that these zones, which represent just 1.6 percent of Chicago’s landmass, account for 10 percent of its violent crime.
First of all, it's amazing that this took three years, seeing as how he's only been here under two years.
Second, only 1.6% of Chicago's landmass is responsible for 10% of the crime? Wouldn't it make more sense to pave over that 1.6%? It'd be cheaper than what he and Rahm are spending now.
And this:

And this:
- He said in the first nine weeks of 2013, officers seized 1,220 firearms, or about 20 guns a day.
So all of these illegal guns are taken from criminals within a pretty small geographical area, yes? So the guns in 97% or more of Chicago aren't a problem? In fact, gun ownership in the vast majority (the super-majority one could say) of Chicago isn't an issue, isn't a problem and isn't out committing robbery, murder or any mayhem at all?
Hmmmm.
Hmmmm.

How do you calculate crime by landmass!
If bad guy number one fires a weapon and takes up 2 feet of space is it different in another part of the city!
Now if i changed land mass for race???
But that would be cruel what a smuck.
Wow! It took him awhile to saturate these areas. I guess after 500 murders is a good time to implement this type of strategy. I guess the media doesn't want to ask him why he didn't think of this about 2000 shootings ago.
Say NO, to more gun control!!!
meanwhile, i cant get a fucking single squad car to patrol our streets where I live. so, my life and my wife and kids lives and my property is less important than the hoot rats?
Forget the number of guns seized, let's see the number of uuw arrests from those guns that result in a conviction....and let's see the sentence.
Funny how Gmack called the 200 plus cops working everyday for OT on their days off the "Violence Reduction Initiative (VRI)", but commented a week ago that "hiring more cops won't stop the violence." Then why are you calling more cops on the street working OT "Violence Reduction?" Strange.
Stop making sense. It hurts his hung over head.
You can't tell idiots that.Never waste a good crisis.
That Sun Times article ends with this gem, "This is modeled on something I created New York" So this asshole invented overtime? Or just the notion that more police on the street equals less crime? We use to do this shit years ago in the black BDUs for OT. This guy walked in here talked shit about the way we did things here, changed everything and crime went through the roof. Then in a state of utter dispair, resorts back to old school Fat Phil methods of saturating the problem spots and crime goes down. And he still wants to take credit. What an asshole!
“It’s a small percentage of the population and a super-heated group of individuals who are constantly engaging in gunfire on the streets...”
What to do? What to do?

What happened to the excuse of dismantling Tru and Msf, because these units weren't familiar with the neighborhoods by going to different districts nightly. Gee sounds a lot like the overtime initiative and the beefed up sat teams.
I guess those units did work and had a solid plan after all

Man charged in beating on CTA train
By Jason Meisner
Tribune reporter
2:57 PM CST, March 4, 2013
A South Side man exhausted from beating and stomping another man on a CTA Red Line train over the weekend “took a break” while the victim lay unconscious on the floor, then resumed the attack once he’d caught his breath, prosecutors said today in bond court.
Anthony McMillan, 49, was charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery in the Friday night beating that prosecutors said occurred over the course of 15 minutes on a northbound Red Line train from 95th Street to 63rd Street.
McMillan attacked the 51-year-old victim, body slammed him to the floor and then stomped, choked and beat the man until he lost consciousness, Assistant State’s Attorney Stephanie Buck said. Video surveillance from the train captured McMillian continuing to kick the man in the head as he lay motionless, she said.
After several minutes, McMillan grew tired and “took a break” from the beating, Buck said.
“Once he had regained his strength, he returned to the victim and continued” the beating, she said.
McMillan left the train at 63rd Street. A short time later, an unidentified passenger saw the victim lying on the floor and pressed the emergency call button, Buck said. The victim was taken to a nearby hospital, where he remained in critical condition today with a collapsed lung, swelling to his brain and multiple facial fractures, she said.
Police arrested McMillan near the Red Line stop at Chicago Avenue and State Street on Saturday night after recognizing him from a CTA bulletin about the crime, according to court records. When officers approached McMillan, he said, “Whoa man, if this is about the fight on the train, he hit me first,” police alleged.
When McMillan was arrested, he was wearing the same clothing described in the alert: a fur hat, multi-colored scarf and blue jeans with suspenders, according to court records. Police noticed what appeared to be blood stains on his boots.
McMillan, of the 11500 block of South Bishop Street, has five past felony convictions, including one in 2011 for aggravated DUI for which he was sentenced to 2 years in prison, court records show.
Judge Israel Desierto set bond today at $350,000 for McMillan.

Now how is McMillan supposed to afford that bond? Toni is gwine' to be angry! That damn beating shit is hard work!
McCarthy is all over the place.
Everyone knows every gun does not have an arrest. Some of the guns come from people passing away. The news needs to ask how many of the guns are not related to any crimes???? More BS!
CLUELESS. The superintendent is just a press hound.
The just keep changing the plays and than bring out the old play book like they invented it. To funny.
We know the Chicago media suck, but how come no one asks McG what changed from a few months ago when he insisted that there were enough police. He gets a total pass.
And where is the press on the mayors new chief of staff? SHe was Paul Volpe's right hand in the parking meter catastrophe and no one researches her involvement. The press should be embarrassed calling themselves reporters.
Blacktop?!!!! That's racist man.
Can we please get some leadership on this department, some competent dispatchers, and a little respect, police officers are human beings!! This department is a disaster! A real leader.....please!!
What happened to the rumor that McCarthy was supposed to be out by last Friday?
He's still here.
Unless you're in the Crystal Ball Unit and "know for sure" what is happening in the future, please refrain from putting in rumors that get our hopes up.
CBS2 tweeted out a pic of some of those "incredible" guns and what a pathetic looking arsenal http://t.co/G6DMFO2RmE. A couple of shotguns and some old hunting rifles, but not a single handgun in the group. I had to remind the bubble-headed tweeter that only 23 out of 2,000 robberies and assaults through mid-Feb have been committed with either type of weapons shown on the table.

Per SCC:
He said in the first nine weeks of 2013, officers seized 1,220 firearms, or about 20 guns a day.

========================================
You nailed it again, SCC.
In more than 97% of Chicago, the law-abiding citizens are being equated with the criminals and are not allowed to carry a gun to defend themselves from the animals that ARE out there.
Lest some people forget, the shitheads do have cars and travel city-wide and elsewhere.
Look what happened to Six Flags in Gurnee. Gang-banger heaven.
What I want to know is where the million dolars per week for this overtime is coming from? And if the city has such a surplus of money, why isn't a big chunk going into their end of the pension funding?
Hell with the sentence. If you want to see results, construct a tent city, put the cons in pink underware and jumpsuits, and let them serve out the sentence with only the weather channel to view so that they know how cold it is out there. Maybe they could watch "THE View" 24 hours a day. BUt that would be cruel and unusual punnishment.
“It’s a small percentage of the population and a super-heated group of individuals who are constantly engaging in gunfire on the streets,” McCarthy said Monday.
Huh? Can he give a more detailed description of these super-heated people? They sound scary.
Thank god for the victim that there was a camera on the CTA. Just think how badly he would have been injured if there wasnt a camera!
Pretty soon for extra cash the CTA can sell you a commerative video of your mugging, robery, or your relatives murder.

When I read that in the ST that exact thought crossed my mind, "Then why the heck didn't McCarthy implement this when he got to Chicago?"
I'm interested in what NYC cops say about McCarthy's developing this strategy.
Not a cop. It sounds like a strategy that's been around a long time, like hundreds of years: Policing emphasis where the most trouble occurs.
With troublemakers being so mobile now (LINK$, etc.), traveling across a large land area, I guess McCarthy's next model will be mobile police units that specialize in policing hotspots throughout the city. He could call it MSF.
The guy is a loon. G-d we're doomed with these idiots at the helm and such an impotent media.
Leave him alone. He is bi-polar a mental disease widely diagnosed for politicians.
How many of those recovered guns were classified as non-criminal or turn-in?
I don't trust ANY statistics coming out of McWhiskys mouth, not ANYTHING!
It's amazing how this Goof is quick to take credit for the reduction in murders last month. I like how he compared the homicides statistics between the months of Oct 2011 to February 2012, with the Homicide numbers between Oct 2012 and February 2013. You can manipulate the numbers anyway you want dumbass, but you are not fooling us.
If the boss wants to see super heated individuals, he is welcome to stop by the bathhouse.

Ah! Welcome to "Clarity of Vision In Spite of the Chicago Political Bullshit Splattered All Over the Windshield."
Welcome on joining the ranks of "they're dangerous because they can SEE!"
Hmmm... Lisa Schrader... Flaming Tutu's "new" chief of staff?
Lisa Schrader...
Hired in 2000 to work for the Stuttering Thieving Prick, Richard M. Daley.
Let's chart the trajectory of her career, shall we?
Spokeswoman - Budget Office.
Deputy Budget Director.
Deputy Chief Financial Officer.
Deputy Chief of Staff reporting to then Chief of Staff, Paul Volpe.
Heh... that same Paul Volpe whose fingerprints are all over this eye-wateringly bad meter deal?
NAWWWWWW! Not the same deal Rahm is trying desperately to renege on?
(A contract is a contract to certain so called powerful people only when it suits them?)
Then she went >Flash!-Poof!< for a few years...
Now the criminal political-media cabal are ballyhooing her as the "new" Chief of Staff, huh?
The criminal political-media cabal fling glitter & confetti, twist up some balloon animals and wave something shiny as distraction.
*Toss & Sparkle! Squeaky-Squeaky-Sqook! Fake-y Shake Shake!*
"Don't look here! Look THERE!"
Somebody dropped a gem of wisdom on bullshit like this.
"They screw these same people in and out of these political positions like light bulbs."
Heh... Fella, you ain't never lied on that one!
The more INTERESTING examples?
Ron Huberman? You KNOW that as a made member of the North Shore big-money shot callers, he's just waiting to be plugged into a position because of his "invaluable experience."
>Pffft!< ...The fuck outta here with that crazy talk.
Charles Williams... (Hiya "Cholly!")
Tom "Thumb" Byrne...
Mike Picardi...
Michael "Cut The Crap! Did he or didn't he get a phone call from Jackie Heard?" Scott...
And a handful of others...
Just killin' time until the right time, eh? >Wink!<
Lisa Schrader was described in the scum-times article as "a loyal soldier moving up the ranks."
Mmm-Hmm... She kept her mouth shut and held her nose through the whole damned thing.
Is this her reward?
Heh... Another card soon to be plucked out of the party rolodex and discarded?
The INNER PARTY feeling a little "burn-through" of their many layers of insulation?
To the INNER PARTY, loyalty is a one way street...
Daley Inc. seems to be very much alive.
Rahm just reached down and shook the skeletal hand sticking out of the ground on this deal...
Chicago Politics is evil incarnate.
Geez, Do you really care? No matter what we do, TRU, MSF (Any other ridiculous acronym we can come up with) this crap in those areas is not going to stop with the current tools (laws emphasized) and political climate and social climate that exists. So stop complaining like little spoiled children and take your piece of the VRI pie. Get out of debt, pay your childs private school tuition and build a college fund and add to your retirement nest egg at the expense of VRI. Stop crying an eat your VRI money pie. As a police department we succeed in spite of our leadership. We adapt to anything. That is why we are good. So naysayers, adapt to this. Earn some extra money and ride off into the sunset. Or would you rather earn 15 an hour sitting in some ghetto liquor store on your day off. They are not going to hire more officers no matter how many of your tears are shed on this blog. Dont you see that by now? So again take your VRI piece of the money pie and do some good for you and your family with the proceeds
How about a "strategic" keep-them-the-hell-in-jail until their sentence is complete plan, eh McCarthy?
The city has $33 million for OT. This will ALL be gone by July. After July expect a complete shutdown of all OT for any reason including court.

So Rahm won't be around for a second term?
Just seen on the street --
City "Meals On Wheels" truck unnecessarily and expensively re-done from its former simple lettering scheme.
The thing was run through one of those fancy digital photo-spray robots, and has elaborate city-generated artwork on all sides. "RAHM EMANUEL, MAYOR."
That s__t starting up now. Costs millions to replace it all when they leave. Want to see a bad one, Cicero. "Larry Dominick" all over every visible object.
...and "CALL FOR IN-HOME ASSESSMENT!" Got to get in that door. Got to grow this job, one "social worker" brings 15 more behind them. It's a plague now.
I know someone who got FIVE "Home Health Aides" in the place at once! As bad as the chimney-pushers, one keeps you busy "We need to check your water pipes!" and you can't quite see what the others are doing in the master bedroom...oh, excuse me for being suspicious of fat, semiliterate, gum-snapping, min-wage, tattooed street trash who no one invited. Five? -- the keyword here is "GENERATE BILLING."
"Assessment!" Here comes the army of Clipboard Ladies, laughing and chatting on their very leisurely way up the front walk, here to hand out crooked Xerox copies of the "Food Pyramid" and "List Of Help Resources Located In Really Dangerous Neighborhoods" and "How To Wipe Your A__."
What a trip. This country has been through a lot, but I don't think it can sustain much more "sessment" and "sistance."
"RAHM EMANUEL, MAYOR."
I don't like the look of this.
(Oh -- the meals thing is good, very important to a lot of elderly, as are other things if you can manage to get them. This is the kind of thing a decent society SHOULD help with, not free everything for aliens, etc. It's the political s__t and the ever-growing make-work positions that are the HUGE problem.)

"With troublemakers being so mobile now (LINK$)"
3/05/2013 08:42:00 AM
Do you even know what LINK is? It's a card you can get some food with. Nothing to do with "mobility."
What gets me is that your "troublemakers" on parole can travel thirty miles with no problem, to chop up an innocent 14-year-old girl in the far suburbs, but can't seem to find "healthy food" even a block down the street. Walgreens is advertising "food oasis" stores now, with fruit, etc.
Let's see how much fruit they sell, compared to purple drank, Flamin Red Hots, and pickles in bags of healthy salt water. I mean, the people have already spoken on this one, and a long time ago too.
OT,,, Hey SCC, I just wanted to thank the off-duty copper in his red SUV who represented himself as a SGT, at Hale school around 1500 hrs, and told the delivery woman who was making a vital emergency medical shipment to my house, to move her car. Yes we all have places to go... and my neighbor was helpful in assisting her because I unfortunately needed to pick up my child from school early, so I was not home. My wife is confined to her bed so she could not answer the door. It would have been a disaster if we did not get that delivery, and the poor woman just wanted to skip my delivery because of your thoughtlessness. Your life is not the only important life out there. I am a police officer too, and I'm sure people know who I am, but I am not a jerk. Who cares what rank you are, nothing makes you more important than anyone else. You're a human being and you should have some compassion.

They will be out to retiree luncheons and doing mailings when they all run for re-election next year, you can count on that.

Not one member of the Chicago media has the balls to call these clowns out on their bullshit. They just take everything these politicians and their pawns say at face value and don't bother to dig any deeper. This is in fact proof that the statements made by McNewstrategy were in fact lies, if we had enough officers we would not need to hire 400 officers back a night at time and a half.
Sign up for VRI kids. OH honey I'm gettig time and a half. NO one paying into pension. When you retire tell your spouse Oh honey I'm only getting 39% of the pension I thought I would get. BWAHAHAHAHA. Fuckin Idiots!
OFF TOPIC: The liberal shit has hit the proverbial fan here in Hyde Park. We had a march last week to protest the U of C Hosp.'s unwillingness to be a trauma center for people over 21 yoa. In the midst of two active groups of student protesters, it was the apparent idea of Milt Owens, our very own UCPD Executive Asst. to the Chief (Marlon Lynch, also known as Sir Stupid by the rank & file) to place a female detective of the UCPD among the protesters to better keep track of the mood of the crowd, what their intentions were, and/or if any violence would pop up during the protest. Our newly appointed detective apparently did a very poor job of concealing herself in the crowd of protesters. Anyone following the events in the student newspaper Chicago Maroon would see numerous detailed pics of her texting Owens (there are even pics of her cell phone texts displayed). Now our libtard students are incensed by this, and there is a collective call for heads to roll. True to form, our no-balls chief has responded immediately, claiming now that the idea of placing an undercover into the crowd of protesters was 'never approved by my office.' Two officers in the UCPD are now under administrative leave (i.e, they'll likely be shitcanned within two weeks; that seems to be the standard amount of time before you're fired here once you've achieved 'A.L' status by our Deputy Chief of Professional Standards, who has never possessed a set of balls that anyone here can ever recall). Since the departure of John Doty last year, we were all speculating how long Owens would last without Mr. BiPolar managing his every thought & movement. Apparently, not much longer than a year. So long Owens, we only wish that Lynch and Heath were leaving with you. U of C President Zimmer is the biggest joke of all: He leaves his wife to carry on an affair with another professor, leaving his wife in his provided for on campus housing to move in with his lady love downtown, only to quickly divorce his wife and shove her out of town so he can move back in to his University provided mansion with the home wrecker. But Zimmer is quoted in the press as saying he's outraged. It's all just so funny, our own version of Bill Clinton, at a million dollars a year!
Not all the guns recovered are crime guns. Alot of guns are recovered as turn ins or by people who have had thier foid cards revoked and must turn over any guns they may have purchased in the past 10 years. This includes people with orders of protections against them or mentals

Here are two pics of her, I can't tell. Maybe just a coincidence.

OT,,, Hey SCC, I just wanted to thank the off-duty copper in his red SUV who represented himself as a SGT, at Hale school around 1500 hrs, and told the delivery woman who was making a vital emergency medical shipment to my house, to move her car. Yes we all have places to go... and my neighbor was helpful in assisting her because I unfortunately needed to pick up my child from school early, so I was not home. My wife is confined to her bed so she could not answer the door. It would have been a disaster if we did not get that delivery, and the poor woman just wanted to skip my delivery because of your thoughtlessness. Your life is not the only important life out there. I am a police officer too, and I'm sure people know who I am, but I am not a jerk. Who cares what rank you are, nothing makes you more important than anyone else. You're a human being and you should have some compassion.
All she had to do was pull into one of the legal spots.
To this know-it-all who has never been to an FOP meeting. If you had, you would not have posted your ignorant comment. 3/05/2013 05:43:00 PM
It was explained to the members in attendance that Tracy Ladner of Human resources is 6 months behind providing FOP with the names of retirees. This is the only source that FOP can use for retirees. Open mouth insert foot because you can.

Do you realize each and every prisoner, in each and every prison, was put there by a cop?
HMMM....
3/05/2013 04:23:00 PM
There was a time when the mark of a good policeman was the count of people sitting in a prison somewhere pissed off at you for putting them there. More pissed off mo' fo's equals good policeman.
Say what you want about this guy. (1) I'm no longer the only rapid car on the watch. (2) VRI is paying for some cops kids tuition (3) He's asked supervisor s for opinion s on what's needed in districts.(4) give
Him NATO (5) how many officers have been killed since his tenor( safety in number s) he's been on most police shootings. Yes he's said some nuckle head things but this is shithead liberal city: I would to to keep this job. All and all things could be Hiram worse.

"Forget the number of guns seized, let's see the number of uuw arrests from those guns that result in a conviction....and let's see the sentence."
Exactly.....how many guns, how many arrested, conviction rate, sentencing, how much time actually served if convicted?.....where's all of the reporters out there?

Dead. Or fled Chicago's corruption a long time ago.
Now, we just have internet 'compilation experts'. They sit in front of a netbook, don't damage their manicures, don't get their shoes dirty and can't locate any area of the city that isn't 'Lincoln Park' or 'River North'.
Pretty soon for extra cash the CTA can sell you a commerative video of your mugging, robery, or your relatives murder.

Kinda like the roller coaster pictures at Great America!! Great idea.

Can we please get some leadership on this department, some competent dispatchers, and a little respect, police officers are human beings!! This department is a disaster! A real leader.....please!!

You live in a city run by Democrats. Those things will never happen as long as they control things.
It's the same with the POTUS; he won't be content until all of our freedoms are taken away.
I feel for you all and I feel for all of us here in the U.S. We are seriously doomed.
I get the feeling that Gary & Rahm might be full of shit. Is it just me or is anyone else picking up on this vibe?

"With troublemakers being so mobile now (LINK$)"

Do you even know what LINK is? It's a card you can get some food with. Nothing to do with "mobility."
#################################
I do know what LINK and Food Stamps are.
I also know how they are abused for generating cash.
It's pretty common knowledge for anybody that can find there ass with both hands. The LINK or Food Stamp card holder buys food that they then turn around and sell to another person.
In some cases, the food retailer provides cash-back taking a generous cut.
If you're a cop, g-d help the CPD

The OP is a true wack job. If the delivery driver skipped your house she should be fired. Pulling over so other people can pass isn't a lot to ask. Compassion? WTF are you talking about. Are people to assume that every asshole who park in the middle of the street is making vital medical deliveries that prevents them from taking the extra 3 seconds to pull over? I think you are just a baby and whining. If this package was so important you would of been home so your poor bed ridden wife could receive this important medical supplies via UPS as soon as possible. The world doesn't revolve around you guy, act accordingly or continue to whine about ridiculous shit that other people roll their eyes at.

Oh, I see.
"I do know what LINK and Food Stamps are."
So, since you're such a good assfinder, perhaps you can explain to us the difference?
"The LINK or Food Stamp card holder..."
There is no such thing as "Food Stamps" or a "Food Stamp card" in Illinois. Just the LINK card. Not "LINK$," LINK. Probably most other states are the same by now.
"If you're a cop, g-d help the CPD"
Yeah, "Not a cop" would know.
Here are your "Food Stamps" back. Have a nice day, sir. Drive carefully.

Right, like that is the only source of retirees. Maybe some police type person with half a brain can figure out some way to get those names. Funny how retirees get bombarded with mailings almost as soon as they retire but our own fucking union uses some dunce like you to call people names and make ignorant lame excuses. How the hell does any crime get solved? Do they wait for a list of offenders to be provided by the FBI perhaps?
There are civilians in that office that I could call who could give me a list. But our newsletter committe can't figure out how to get the names. Those are cops on that committee, alll with years of experience. And you use Tracey Ladner as an excuse.
I make every meeting, mostly. I missed January, made February, will be at the March meeting. Lots of people will be at some meetings this year. Election next year so they have to go to 5 meetings. Maybe that includes you.

Now that's no excuse for poor grammar and composition and puncuation. "Just a blog." Hah! You think Hemingway would have said that? Or Mark Twain? If people had to sign their work they might do better. Hmmm, come to think of it, I've seen planty of signed case reports that look like Rain Man wrote them.
To lie, McCarthy needs a "good" memory.

Hello, Mr. Southside. ;) Nice to hear from you. I'll be in Georgia tomorrow. Sorry it can't be Chicago.
When I finally do make it out to Chicago, I'd be happy to have that PBR w/ you, even though I'm not much of a beer drinker. But at this rate, it looks like I may be making a trip to Boston before Chicago. I have family moving there in mid-April.
One day though... ;)
A man can only dream......
