Release Everyone!
- Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart says the jail is nearly full, and he’s concerned the facility will be bursting at the seams as summer months approach and arrests typically rise with the mercury.
Late last week, the jail at 27th and California was almost 96 percent full, with a daily population of 9,721. The capacity is about 10,150.
“That will become a humongous problem for me come June, July and August,” Dart told the Chicago Sun-Times in a recent interview.
Yeah, and it might be a huge problem for all those actual victims of crime who expect their attackers, muggers, robbers, and thieves to actually, you know, stand trial for their misdeeds.
But Dart is worried about "his" problem, not you little people.

An internal investigation of the FOP counsel, paid for by the membership, ought to be general knowledge, right? The lawsuit posted cited an investigation undertaken by by Asher, Gittler and D'Alba. Shouldn't the membership have access to that report that Shields & Co is trying so hard to conceal from the plaintiff? After all, we pay everyone's salary and any attached investigations. We don't want our labor organization held liable, do we? If our union officials are assisting in the coverup, we're going to get tagged hard if the plaintiff wins. If it can be proved that Geiger was acting outside his role of lawyer and instead acting as a predator, it would behoove us to fire him as soon as possible.
To Law Abiding Chgo Citizens:
Move. Get out of the city. Take your money and save yourselves now. Sell your condos, your homes and just leave this God forsaken mess. Life is way too short to have to live in earths version of hell. Let it turn into Detroit. Let the libtards have it their way cuz it ain't gonna get any better.
What if we let 'em all out as long as they don't admit or deny anything and promise they won't do it again LIKE THE CORPORATE BANKERS.
Maybe his problem is the cook county board president breathing down his neck to reduce the jail population because at $143/day times 10,000 inmates it is fricking blowing out her budget and trashing her campaign promises.
Maybe, IDK, just speculation ya know.
What is that anyway, $1.43 million A DAY? Feels like the taxpayers are paying for suites at the Hilton at these rates.
I thought the jail had closed several tiers. Were they re-opened, or is the capacity of County now revised permanently downward?
They must be free to vote for the socialists. Set them all free.
Too many continuances, not enough ajudications. Get Cindy Brim back on the bench to move things along.
OK...
So essentially, Policing in Chicago is a well orchestrated charade based on the appearance of "doing something" to stave off the few remaining taxpayers from opening their eyes, taking up guns and falling into full blown rebellion against the political-criminal media cabal in this city?
Let's sum it up here...
You have a parasitic creature of a mayor in borrowed human skin who glides safely from fundraiser to fundraiser while strip-mining this city of every penny that Shortshanks didn't steal or cause to be stolen...
You have a Police "Manager" who kills grass and other living things where ever he sets foot.
And EVERYWHERE he sets foot, the FEDS follow right behind him fucking-up individual Policemen for said manager's wretched "stop & frisk - sweat the small stuff" Policing strategies that the courts have consistently ruled as bad Policing practices and civil rights no-no's?
Why then, is this Hammer-Headed menace still allowed to wander like a one man gypsy medicine show from P.D. to P.D. unchecked by the Feds?
>Snort of Disgust<
The up the ass while doing a back-bend local "media" have less integrity than the most riotously nasty, colorfully treacherous and low-down of the old notorious Fifth & Kilpatrick hoes.
you have a preening, amoral pecksniff of a county sheriff who is literally running motherfuckers in need of caging, out the back doors as soon as they walk in the front...
Why should The Policeman give a fuck when nobody else does?
It's all a fucking sham... Right?
>Pffft!<
The Police are the enemy... Right?
I remember the county being fined daily years ago because it was so overcrowded--- that can't happen now because the county is broke and can't afford to pay fines--- this means more guys on home monitoring and lower bonds to keep the jail population down....
Fire up the wood chipper. Go more than one page on your criminal history and you go in it. That sounds fair.
One bed can accommodate three inmates. Each can sleep on it for eight hours. Three shifts. Just like our military do on submarines. It's called hot bunking. Can triple the size of the jail capacity
actually is comming from dirty toni's mouth it costs roughly 1390103 a day for keeping people it's 600 a day for
juveniles. she says it for mostly drug charges and keeping people till trail is too exspensive. it's 143 dollars a day to to keep one person.
http://travel.nytimes.com/2011/10/30/us/reducing-jail-rolls-would-trim-cook-county-costs-preckwinkle-says.html?_r=0 this is where she made these statements.
on channel 7 once she complained that the average for a gunshot victim is 52,000 a case for care she made it sound like to the effect it's cheaper and better for the county if you die.
dr.andrew at cook county medical said this
one in six die from their wounds
it's all about $ right toni?
Let them sleep in the yard. Prison is not supposed to be nice.
I worked there back in the early 80's (fuck that's a long time ago) and the place was filled to over capacity. Mattresses on the floor, some cells doubled up, some wings had around 80 inmates each. Not a safe environment, especially when you sometimes had one correctional officer assigned to two wings. Nobody bitched back then including the inmates. Maybe Darts doing this to get more money from the county which means you hard working tax paying law abiding citizens may see a property tax increase. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
It's part of Illinois new Catch and Release program, we only lock up the really serious threats to society like folks that mistreat puppies.
Another reason why CPS is broke, POs can't get raises, and jails are packed...
Carlos Munoz, who retired as principal at Amundsen HS after the 2011-12 school year, is now the acting administrator aka principal at Infinity Math, Science, and Tech HS in Little Village. Munoz received a one-time payout of $200K+ for unused sick/vacation day payout and used that money to escalate his pension to over $156K/year, which was his last year's salary. Now, he's drawing the his last year's salary of $156K PLUS his pension in excess of $156K at Infinity HS, basically double dipping. is he worth $312K/year? What was his numbers at Amundsen? Wasn't he a PE teacher once?
http://www.cps.edu/Schools/Pages/school.aspx?id=610384
The questions I have are: is Munoz receiving his CPS pension with the unused sick/vacation escalator figured into it? Did he get his unused sick/vacation day payout? And, now is he getting principal pay an benefits as principal at Infinity? This would seem like something taxpayers would want to know.
Please let me know if this is the same Carlos Munoz as I was told he is still a principal somewhere for CPS and Infinity seems the most logical place for him to land with the following considered:
From what I was told, Munoz is the brother of Ald. Ricardo Munoz (Chicago - 22nd Ward) in Little Village.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricardo_Mu%C3%B1oz
And, reportedly, Munoz is the son of Elias Munoz. Elias Munoz was sentenced to 4 years in jail for taking part in a Fake ID making ring in the Little Village Discount Store at his store (Nuevo Foto Munoz, 3105 W. 26th st - Chicago)
I'm confused. Our leaders keep bragging about crime being down. Less crime should mean less people in jail. Right? Is someone spinning the numbers about crime at 35th street and city hall?
Why are they resistant to build more jails?
Privatize them and create more jobs.
Are there any jails in Illinois that are under-utilized?
When I worked in division 6 some 20 years ago, I remember stepping over 50 inmates on the dayroom floor and 3 to a cell, so who's crying the sheriff who can't even wear a uniform?
Maybe Dart should take in his home some of those jail birds that he releases.
Dart is a Commie F him
Over the past few months, sheriffs across the country have emerged as bulwarks for freedom by telling President Obama they will not enforce any new federal gun control laws. Now, Colorado's Weld County Sheriff, John Cooke, has made clear that if the Democrat-sponsored gun control bills for his state are signed into law they will not be enforced.
http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/03/18/Colorado-Sheriffs-Say-They-Will-Not-Enforce-New-State-Gun-Control-Laws
Hey Dart get your balls back from Madigan....oh I for got you never had any balls.
Sounds like the courts need to work harder to move those prisoners through the system.
When it gets warm I'm going to find really stinky piss bum on 26th St to lock-up with. I'm sure he'll have some kinda warrant. Just so we can add another to the mix at Cook County!
Preckwinkle somehow blamed Ronald Reagan's "war on drugs" for all those poor souls languishing undeservedly behind bars.
Maybe someone should inform her that she is in charge of Cook County, where 100% of the angel inmates are put there due in no part whatsoever from anything Reagan ever did.
No I must go stretch my hamstrings.
Why doesn't this county check with Sheriff Joe and model what he does in his jail. Most of his prisoners, once let out do not want to return to his facility.
Why aren't these inmates put to work like they do in other states??
Make them pay for their incarceration.
off topic: guatemalan knife fight in 017 in basement apartment in 4800 block of north drake--- apparently a drunken card game went to shit--- one is on a slab at the county me's office and another is occupying a suite at area north det division--- 017 will be ordered to conduct knife fighting missions for the next several periods.....
As I said in the past..... let the inmates work in shifts. Two shifts in the cell sleeping and the other shift working. After eight hours the working shift comes back to the cell and one of the other two inmates goes to work.
Simple yes?
bulid more bars hire more guards....gonna get worse
TO: Fire Up The Wood Chipper
This is a great idea! I am all for it. One page full of BREAKING THE LAW and you are bye bye.
Open some. prisons. Send some mother fuckin thugs from county to prison for once. Proble
m solved.
And if u want to solve the problem permanently. Burn that prison down
Hell, pitch a few tents like Sheriff Joe inside the jail grounds and take over that vacant lot where the Mexican Rodeos and carnivals take place across the street.
Memo to Dart:
Since the Sheriff and the County managed to pay staff for the unoccupied basement cellblock underneath the Criminal Courts Building and Jail for years, how about housing some of the vermin down in this dungeon? Are you worried about their comfort?
They will be over crowded since they closed down a few divisions.
kick em all out
make room for the felony peeers, drinkers, and just ugly on the public way offenders
under the "new" zero tolerance program to reduce crime
oh, don't forget the super felonius
new and convoluted gun violators like collectors, used a weapon for in home self defense, and retired pos past the age of usefulness.
this is GREAT news for rahm and the other pols.
just fine the stick up men, burglars, and murderers $$$$$
no jail, it's all about the money $$$$$$
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$they love money$
especially ours.
I thought they closed an entire building some time ago for lack of inmates...How about reopening it and fill it to the GILLS........
What is Dart so worried about? Madigan found some faux- Sheriff that can lick his balls better? Relax Tommy. Take it deep like you know how and the Machine will reward you like usual
Why would Dart mention weather having an affect on crime? Why would the criminal population of the jail increase during the warm summer months? Is there a correlation between rising crime numbers and weather? It couldn't be,
Why should the Police give a
f*uck ? Because here in Chicago and Cook County, s*it rolls downhill and the
Police Officers are at the
bottom, sooooo, guess who is made to look bad and responsible for the f*ck-ups that trickle down from the a-holes at the top ?
Cover your behinds 'cause the that be are more than willing to throw you to the wolves to divert attention from themselves.
In other words NO PROBABLE CAUSE @ the branches for the working hairgels, County was sued several years ago for overcrowding by the shit byrds, for every shit byrd that slept on the floor due to overcrowding each of them received a nice monetary sum on the books for there troubles, that meant extra State sausage, honey bunnies, peanut butter and extra fruit for the hooch on the weekends, Damm I miss my days at the CCDOC good times
Sheahan had over 12,000 imates for most of his tenure. You never heard him crying.
Hey, the same thing goes on in the Illinois Dept of Corrections. People rarely serve their sentences by even half. The libs will tell you that everyone should get bond. I am all for that so bring back the bonds men . Then let the families put up cash or property and bail their loved one out. Then if the loved one does not show let the bounty hunters go get them. Works in other states. Here? No one cares and a lot of people just do not show up to court. They only lose a small amount of money. A BFW? Well, who is looking for them? Not the CPD. The warrent guys faded out from the districts years ago.
One the law abiding taxpayers leave, that will leave the libtards with the animals. Libtrads will leave and Lincoln Park zoo will expand to the city limits and teh south side subs.
"In other words NO PROBABLE CAUSE @ the branches for the working hairgels, County was sued several years ago for overcrowding by the shit byrds, "
Ah, now I see the plan, fill it up, in fact overfill it, then they can sue and get money...better than a link card. Golly, those bad guys are smart...better than robbing a bank.
If he spent more time worrying about the jail, and less time trying to rehabilitate whores, arrange accomodations for he-shes, rescue puppies, dig up indigent dead people and having his picture taken at Burr Oak, maybe he'd be able to run the jail as well as Mike Sheahan did. Oh I forgot, he's a family guy and the only spare time he has is to have his Mt. Carmel fleece puffed up.
I worked in Alaska some years back and we took turns sleeping it was called rotation and if you didnt like it you could walk 5 miles to your car and sleep.
When schools got overcrowded they went out and got trailers for classrooms. Put some bars on the windows of those fema trailers and put then in the yard of ccj. Why the fuck should we care if the perps don't like it, or the scumbag aclu.
What doea Toni Prenkwinklie say about this jail full crap? Is it racist again? Do we have to use race normalization to let people into the jail based on race? No more black folk until poleese come up with 3,000 white, Chinese, hispanic and eskimos to balance it out by race.
I would suggest Sheriff Dart contact Sheriff Joe Arpaio Maricopa County Arizona to help solve his overcrowding problem. Chicago could use all their vacant lots for Tent Cities rather than gardens.
Ha.ha.ha.
Rosemount and the Ricketts gunna put their boots on the mayor and alderman's necks..
Cubs fans say move the club.
Screw Chicago, the lack of parking, the whining about noise the concerts make at night and the night games, the roof top people, the small size, the bill boards and all the other b.s.
Screw Chicago and move the Cubs.
Let the mayor turn Wrigley into some sort of museum with his private corporate donations.
Can you imagine Wrigleyville without the club? DETROIT!
If Dart can't handle his job, maybe he should let someone more qualified handle it. Maybe that 14 year old kid who worked a couple of shifts two years ago? He seems more qualified, and willing to work, than Dart.
Is Dart really Sheriff ? He was on TV and looked like a board-up guy trying to get the bid to board up a burnt home.
Mt. Greenwood really breeds the best for political office.
Dart can take Mr. Roger's place if he had a brain and common sense. Seeing his clothing makes people think Goldblatts is still around. Sheriff Woods is roling in his grave seeing who now runs the jail.
Bet he does not carry. Toni told he "no-no" Dart board.
OT
Cyprus.
So...so far the Cyprus Parliament has voted down the 10% confiscation of bank savings account balances . They're still trying to tweak the theft tho.
But Oh look!
New Zealand considers Cyprus-style banking failure solution
[...].. New Zealand depositors could face a Cyprus-style tax on their bank accounts, as the government is planning to impose a similar strategy on its banks warns the country's Green Party.
New Zealand is facing a similar bank failure to Cyprus, is likely to adopt open bank resolution (OBR), which will see small depositors lose part their savings in favour of a big bank bailout, Green Party co-leader Russel Norman said. The country’s Finance Minister Bill English supports the open bank resolution.
"Bill English is proposing a Cyprus-style solution for managing bank failure here in New Zealand," said Norman, adding that the Reserve Bank is in the "final stages" of implementing an OBR system.
New Zealand banks’ depositors will have their savings cut by a certain percentage needed to keep their bank afloat
-----------------------
See that? The banks can gamble away their money in the stock market and make risky investments. If the banks pick winners it's hooray for them they get to keep the profits. If the banks pick losers well just take the money from their customers savings deposits.
This is what you get when your Dept. of Justice lets the thieves go.
Who's next? Spain has a banking crisis. Portugal has a banking crisis. Greece has a banking crisis. The USA has a banking crisis.
Where'd all those so-called "toxic assets" go from the housing crisis? Ans: They're still hidden on the banks balance sheet, yeah?
No problemo. The USA has a debt problem. The banks have a problem. There's trillions of dollars people socked away in retirement accounts, 401K and IRA's. Just find a way to tax those accounts and call it an emergency, tell the people it's necessary.
It's getting to the point where they are not even trying to call it a tax anymore.
The bankers robbed millions of peoples assets by creating the housing crisis and now there's this huge pile of money just sitting there in retirement accounts asking to be robbed. We have to find a way to get our hands on that money the elites are thinking.
Oh hey I know...let's call it reform eh? It's not a tax we're reforming.
1. Hot bunking was deemed illegal.
2. There really aren't any housing units closed.
3. In fact there is a brand new, huge division being finished that will hold well over 1000. Anyone can see it from the street.
4. Drug charges may make up a lot of the population there, it is not the majority.
Who backed out of the mayor's election, regrets??

And you can be sure that if the Cubs move, Flammin' Tutu will sue out of revenge and spite to keep them from identifying themselves as "Chicago Cubs."
Then he'll pull his usual outreach to his big corporate and money laundering charity backers to fund a "New Chicago Cubs."
...Just you watch!
Well I'm confident that CPD will keep filing them in and I'll be there to baby sit them as they continue to watch cable television get better medical treatment then the average worker and continue to keep the door revolving. "Naw CO I ain't ever coming back here.." two weeks later back on the new

Just use the racial percentages in the Chicago Public Schools as a guide.

Now he's crying about the poor folks who live in foreclosed buildings. He thinks they should be allowed to stay in them until a new buyer is found for the building, no matter HOW long that might take.
Sounds like a windfall. Move into an about-to-be-foreclosed building and stay there, for free, forever.
Billy Evans for Sheriff!
Bill is a good decent man who happens to be the Police and understands what it takes to be a Law Enforcement Manager.
This asshole Dart is simply no good. A terrible mistake that Mike Sheahan freely admits he made by pushing Dart for the slate.
He has to go.
Merry Christmas Everybody!
Dart says the shitter is full...
I wonder if the old Div. 6, "House Of Corrections" built maybe 1962, is closed. They used to pack that, 1200 inmates maybe.
Open that up again and there's capacity...
Almost from day 1, Dart cherry picked the sworn responsibilities of his office. Maybe a solution to the overcrowded jail would be to go to all those squatters living in those buildings in foreclosure, that he failed in his responsiblity in carrying out evictions, and see if the squatters could make room for a few of the overcrowded inmates at the jail.
And for Christ sakes, the next time you call a press conference put a suit on and get a haircut.
We could really use the CPD help to get Billy Evans elected!! Career Cop... Decent guy. Great leader and has done alot for Law Enforcement. Always looked out for his troops. We need help getting ride of this joke of a Sheriff. www.electbillevans.com is his webpage.
