Anyone hear about an exempt member driving their unmarked SUV into the Albany Park lagoon?

The car is draining at Area 1 garage.

Allegedly.

Out that ass!

Who was it?

Dui and strip that ass...

Same tender mercy and consideration that would be afforded a Blue Shirt.

Shit... if it were a Blue Shirt, Rahm would have already made arrangements for media leakage and a phalanx of bright TV lights waiting at the district of arrest...

No scratch that... Anita Alvarez would somehow/some way gin up some fucked up charges resulting in a trip to 26th Street...

Accountability and consequences are for The Blue Shirt Police only.

Viva Hate.

They didn't give Sodini a car again did they? That, of course, was his second claim to fame. The first was the "event number". Boy I wish he'd of become a plumber.

Anonymous AND IN A RELATED STORY... said...

I remember a winter call once in 018. A citizen caller from a Lake Shore Drive high rise called 911 to report a police car driving into Lake Michigan near Oak Street.

The dispatcher said they thought it could be a prank since there was only one call (dating myself here, but this was before cell phones were invented!). They called the beat car for that beat and they said it wasn't them. The sector Sgt had them conduct an audio roll call for the sector and no one was missing.

Dispatch then got another call from the same, original caller saying that two officers just flagged down a cab on LSD and left the location.

The copper comedy started immediately on the air with comments about Marine Unit officers forgetting they were driving cars during the winter months, etc. It was really hilarious until we heard a while later that the officers were safe after squish, squish, squishing into the front door of the 018th District.

Turns out the Park Car was checking the lakefront when they hit a patch of ice and slid off the rocks. An unknown citizen who walked to work everyday, happened to be coming by and saved both officers who couldn't lift their waterlogged leather jackets and equipment belts out of the water. The citizen left without leaving his name.

As a postscript on this story, several months later, one of the officers was at revolver inspection at roll call, (that's right, it was before we started carrying semi-autos), and the WC randomly checked the officers' gun. To everyone's shock, the cylinder was rusted shut and was incapable of firing. After the swim in the lake, the officer never cleaned or oiled the gun.

Thank God nothing no one was killed!

Let me get this straight:
Trotter gets off with a Misd and community service. To fulfill the community service, he has to talk about gun safety. In other words, he has to bash guns, since that is the only "safety" for a libtard dumbocrat.

Since that's what he does anyway, that shouldn't count. shouldn't he actually be out on the side of the road pickin up trash like the rest of the SWAP rats.

On the subject of Dumb Shits...

Remember the arrest of Illinois Senator Donne Trotter (D-17 (Chicago)), who tried to pass through airport security with a .25 cal. Beretta pistol and bullets in December?

Yesterday he pled guilty to misdemeanor reckless conduct before Judge (?) Charles Burns.

Asshole gets off with $190 fine and 60 hours of community service. Are they going to ban him from the legislature for 60 hours? Now THAT would be community service we could believe in.

Let's hear it for Anita and her minions of justice! Seems there should be a charge in there for violation of the shitty's handgun registration ordinance as well. Oh, wait, he's connected. What am I thinking.

it was his SUV, happened early on during the flooding, tried to go east on Foster. Was able to keep it off air, cause they had S & S tow truck pull it out right away. He had to use a marked car until they got him a replacement unmarked.

Wrong. Sgt is in 025. His wife works at 35th (maybe McGoofy's office, not sure). Sgt in 16 tried to help him and now she is screwed. Another f--ing drunk that needs help and will blame everyone but himself. Your seat at callback awaits.

The same person is a regular at Tommys and is now assigned as a sgt in 025 where everyone hates his belligerent ass... His wife works for mcdumbass so nothing will happen to him anyway.

Sodini was a pilot and drove his police car into wet concrete. Harry Hohm was a pilot and drove his police car into Lake Michigan. Steve Georgas was the C/O of the Marine/Helicopter Unit....coincidence - I think not!

Wow..You all posting about the bottle throwing incident sure are a bunch of dirty douche nozzles..

1: If you don't like the person, fine. He could be an asshole or you are..Either way, it doesn't matter.

2: You're posting about someone ruining a car, and it turns into a shitfest regarding a copper throwing a bottle at a bartender.

The first thing you do is blast the Sgt and then the Sgt who is also part of the beef from 016...You alude to his drinking or antics...either way, have you ever done anything to try and help him or report his antics? Didn't think so...

How about blasting the dumb ass bartender who is suing for 2 million dollars because someone chucked a bottle at her???Are you kidding me/ She works at fucking Tommies and probably goes to Teaser's....If that's probably the best thing that happened to her all night.

She's suing the police department for something that happened off duty and has nothing to do with the police at all. He "conspiracy" thing is fueled by lawyers and they will lose it. She is claiming the Sgt from 016 tried to coerce her into not filing a complaint. The CR was obtained..where is the conspiracy...
She would lose this case anywhere but Chicago and Crook County on its face just for the fact that she works at Tommies..A fricking COP BAR.....If it were a conspiracy she would have had to quit due to the repercussions from the allegations..

Complete and total bullshit and you all know it, but you're too busy stabbing each other in the back to even see it. YOU are all the reason why this department, and this country are fucked up.

Please, do me a favor and fuck yourselves...
