I wish you a speedy recovery! Get well soon!
May this officer have a speedy recovery, and may God watch over his family while they watch over him.
He is awake, but still has endured some pretty serious injuries. Hope for a speedy recovery.
Let us all pray for this officer. God bless and I hope you fully recover.
Officer SM is doing much better and is alert. He's also taking calls and visitors. Extensive injuries, but NOT life threatening. He has a strong friendship base in 025 and a great supportive family.
Normally a hit-and-run on a police officer generates some media attention. . . .
Rahm's propaganda office must be against letting the herd know this info. . .
Get well PPO.
May lord be with u
Any word on what our "lovely" department is going to do? I know it's early, but if there's a benefit, please post any and all info!!!
Although not able to express here in the applicable degree, you have the concern and prayers of all of us, 'on da' job.'
Full and speedy recovery, brother.
Prayers of a speedy recovery
Best of luck and a quick recovery I hope. God bless
May God watch over him and his family. I wish him all the best.
My thoughts and prayers are with you SM.

You're absolutely right! On top of this not getting news. The blue line crash is getting very minimal coverage. Any other city, these would be headline news

Best post. I often wondered why we as P.O's don't have a fund set up for these types of incidents. I would be willing to throw a few buck a check into an account to help each other out. Now I know others wouldn't but some of us would, it would relieve a lt of stress on u and our families. Just a thought.
Get well officer! Your brothers and sisters from Area North
From one police family to another police family, we pray that your officer comes home healthy.
Feel mo betta soon!!
God Bless & Get well soon!!!! Prayers being sent.
Please show support and pay a visit to him in the hospital (lgh). A young officer this early in his career needs to know how many people support him.
Praying for a full and speedy recovery. God Bless

Great news! Hope he heals quickly and fully!
Rosemont has several street view cameras around the entertainment district ( I'm guessing that's where this happened )so hopefully the driver can be crucified!
Get well soon.
Get well soon
Rosemont is the new west side. Stay out of there.

It happened a few days ago. What do you expect our "lovely" department to do? Go complain about something else. You have no idea what the department may be doing
Glad to hear our officer is awake and has a good chance for recovery. You are appreciated...
speedy recovery ...he was one of our cadets in 16 and a great kid....

In theory, it's a nice idea, but as I'm sure you're well aware, coppers will fuck up anything good. Call me a pessimist, but I envision a scenario where an officer "in need" collects money when they're really not in need. I'd be much more comfortable donating on a case by case basis. It's like guys pushing benefit tickets on you for a buddy that got locked up because of off duty bullshit.

What part of this fucked up county hasn't become like the west side.

The fire department does and has something like this set up for their brothers in need

It just happened, asshole. Why don't you wait a bit to see if anyone does anything. Better yet, if you are so concerned, do something yourself, even something as simple as passing the hat at roll call or set up a donation can at the desk?
Nah, much easier to point fingers and complain.

Couldn't agree with you more. This asshole is just looking for something to complain about the department. Hes the guy that whines whenever anything is done or not done.

Couldn't agree with you more. In theory everyone would be entitled to on the CPD would get the benefits.
Who said he is in need. He has strong family support and support from the 025 and with the year medical, he can be off work for a year at full pay and with the city's health insurance he will only have to pay a max of $1,500 out of pocket expense.
Terrible accident, but being on the CPD is alot better than most jobs that give you 12 sick days and a high health insurance deductible and a max out of pocket expense of $5,000 or higher
Should of had the gate guard shut the area off....

Well said sir, copper' will do the above. Seen ot over 30 years ago and was like that way before then.
Place feeds on duty copper' for zip and then an asshole brings his 10 kids into the place looking for the same.
I seen many a monies go South for many a benifit. Open a bank account and send money in the hurt coppers name is the WTG.
A million stories about coppers in the Naked city and this is just one of them.
To the PPO, may Sy Michael heal you, many a copper is praying for you son.
The cpd memorial fund does give monies to officers in situations like these.
I have a check for the PPO when the time is ready. But any info on the offending vehicle? I know there are lots of cameras in that area and also at Rivers Casino
parking lots. Look for that vehicle to be possibly reported stolen.

Check the facts again before you speak. He was on the job less than a year. He missed out on medical leave if I am not mistaken. Next, when a PO suffers very serious injuries, there are numerous expenses not covered by medical. I know from experience.

You are mistaken. Read the contract Appendix P Article 25.
They get the health insurance
What I've seen elsewhere is a "bank" of time, donated by the membership. Someone in needs appeals to the membership to use some for an emergency medical reason. Membership takes it up at a union meeting and looks into the member's history. If there is a history of medical abuse etc. membership is advised and votes yes or no.
Obviously it would be on a case by case basis, as needed, member's who know the person would be expected to speak for or against.
It works elsewhere. That was in Metro-Dade.
Please SCC, when info is available, let us know how to help and what is needed.

Yea, that would really work here. FOP could handle that

But they don't get a salary.
This wasn't iod.
God Bless you and your family officer and never hesitate to reach out for help. There are still many of us who get great pleasure helping our own police family.
Rosemont is extremely dangerous to pedestrians. A few weeks ago, a woman was hit & killed crossing Bryan Mawr and River Road. That area needs police presence to stop speeding vehicles and also better pedestrian walk ways; not cops directing traffic by the convention and taking wedding photos
But they don't get a salary.
This wasn't iod.
You evidently aren't the police. You get paid when you are on the medical or you are the dumbest po ever

Sorry, I forgot where I was for a minute and thought something common sense and decent and compassionate might work here. My mistake.

Since you ARE the police and are so sure I am not, go find yourself a ppo and ask them if they get unlimited medical time like you do.
Prayers to Him and his family...Keep fighting!!!
