At first glance, too many double merit on the list.
Candidates were notified last night - I don't think there's an official list yet, but happy to be proven wrong.
Daddy please please don't let them send me to a scary district. LT Magic
Strangely it came out around for yesterday.
OT: Did you see the propaganda article regarding pensions in the Scum Times, here is one paragraph, what a joke.
“Police and fire are in a panic. They want to know what’s going on. They’re not at the table. These guys have legislation they passed that puts Chicago into a precarious spot by requiring the city to come up with a massive amount of money. They didn’t include the rest of labor when they got that balloon payment that sucked up everything,” the source said.
MT merit once again!!!! Def not promoting the best and brightest!
Where is at ?
how about a class of evidence techs?
Can't believe MJT got meritoriously promoted again.
I know they start Monday.
remember clout rules and the 11th ward runs it.
Don't hear the term too often but Kennedy and Dowd are princes. Well deserved!
Whatever, it makes good sense and money does need to be saved.
First order of business for the new LTs-
http://news.yahoo.com/doj-trains-cops-transgender-people-165331522--politics.html
Congrats Lt Veth!
30 LT's start Monday.
How does McStreetlight promote over 200 Sgt's the past two years when they haven't promoted one detective the past 3+ years. I'm sure someone in the "presstitute" could find a clue to the clearance rate and the fact more detectives have retired than Sgts these past years. McDumbass says "crime is down" so you think the clearance rate would correlate to the nonsense! McGunmagnate, I see you still have no clue.
Hi SCC, Did you happen to catch the article on
page 6 of today's (28Mar)Times. Maybe you can add
some fact to that article. The police are made to
look like money grabbers instead of monies owed
to pension fund.
The list came out at 1701 hours on Thursday..30 names on it.
Some very good choices this time around.
Lieutenant Cooter!
11Dubs is on the list
oh, it's out alright. BUT, the real question is how many times is it going to be rescinded and corrected and rescinded again and corrected again and …..
OT: Bosses in 15 tried to keep this one quiet:
http://wgntv.com/2014/03/28/hidden-camera-found-in-funeral-home-bathroom/
Apparently it is ok for the politically connected to film the genitals of the grieving in Chicago.
Best job on the police dept , nice having sergeants run the watch and we can be in the field .
Now if they can get rid of the useless captain rank, most not qualified to be a sergeant , over their heads so xo position created for the unqualified over paid political hacks .
Congratulations to all that made liuetenant a shout out to all the 630 sergeants that made it. well deserved make us proud you will be missed.
Lt. J rock.. The real deal. Great guy to work for.. Huge loss for 312
I heard your mom made it.
Boy they are just pumping out white shirts. What's going on with the contract. I wait in silence
CONGRATS LT. DOWD. YOU'LL BE GREAT
Oh its out. How about the Rios couple? Merit sergeant and lieutenant in the academy at the same time. And he was a merit Sgt out of 017 with 5 and half years on the job. Now that's a huge bite out of the merit apple!
All depends on if all the slughead Alderman's palms are done being greased and all the phone calls from City Hall are in. Pay-to-Play, the Chicago Police Way !
Congrats Tom Beazley! Nice working with you! Hope you make it back north!
From former and current A team members!
Some good Sgts on that list. Cowin, Beazley, Ryle, Baio, Gillespie and Petranko. All good coppers and will make great bosses. Congrats guys. Williams...not so much.
Congratulations Beth.
-90-1b
which ones are merit???
How bout a det or et test? At least provide the illusion that this dead end job has the promise of being a career lol
congrats lt magic any spots goin to be better then workin with those dogs in pub trans u deserve it
Brennan and Reckard are both stand-up bosses. Anyone would be lucky to work for either of them.
MJT? Obviously the merit board never saw the infamous tape he and his team made a few years back starring the Royal family of Cabrini green. What a pathetic hack!
some good people made it congrats to the area central and north folks that made it. you we're always good to the troops.
he police are made to
look like money grabbers instead of monies owed
to pension fund.
And why hasnt FlOp done anything abouyt this? No uproar from them. No News Conference. Nothing. These bastard politicians have been stealing from our pensions for the past 20 or so years. Never paid it back or a dime into the pension. Again, what has FlOP done. Not a damn thing.
Rios is an incompetent merit hack who can barely spell and has stolen two jobs from hardworking rank order people. Hope you and the wife can proudly hold your heads up without shame in the academy because those of us in the same classes will be able to. Go PRPA and you both owe Peña for the rest of your careers...
congrats CHIP,,worked for you in 023 and now in 020..you are a great pick!
Congrats to J.R. Great boss, actual police, and knows his shit. Nice work.
Talk about one hell of a phone call. Rios from 010 gets the merit nod for sgt and her husband gets the LT nod a week later. Wow, must be nice

**********
Oh I doubt many of us are in any sort of "panic".
We're all pretty well aware that Emanuel and the legislature are the motherfuckers scared shitless because they know full well all the bullshit legislation is about to be shit upon by the courts, and Emanuel's shitting bricks so HE'S the one in panic mode right about now.
WE DON'T GIVE UP A FUCKING THING TO PAY BACK WHAT THESE COCKSUCKERS STOLE FROM US.
The LAW covers our pensions entirely, and Emanuel is panicked that he'll have ZERO choice but to fund them as the law demands.
And as for those who think an amendment will be upheld? Guess again. The last trial balloon they tried to fuck public employees got shoved up their fucking ass, and they know the same fate awaits them it the try that shit again.
So I repeat... Emanuel's the little punk who's shitting his diaper now, NOT us.
We're covered..... and they KNOW it. So they're panicking to try to deal before they get assfucked for the final time in court.
Let it ride..... we get what we're owed, and there's nothing they can do to prevent it.
Congrats Lt. Conan O'Brien!
I knew you'd make it!
I worked in the 008th District with both Mike Kennedy and Terry McMahon years ago. You could not ask for finer quality sergeants. They will both be exceptional lieutenants. They were knowledgeable and cared about the working police. Congratulations and well done.
Your leaders folks, the worst of the worst.
Good job RIDE, see you out south
Cowin? Really? Oh Lord. Just go away
FYI. Rios made Sgt in 97 out of Area Four before Sgts were made by merit. So quit hating.
Still promoting cpd aristocracy, I see. Until there is rank-order promoting from an objective ONLY (no oral or merit) exam, this shit won't end. The Tannehills of the department need to be put on an equal footing with everyone else. Then let's see how many get promoted. The unions need to make this a priority. Unearned promotions are a big reason this department is so screwed up. No one respects these people. Regina, I'm going to the big house, Evans should never have been within a mile of a white shirt.
Congrats Johnny R what are you like 28. LOL Good luck hope you land in 004
Hey who is magic gonna scream at now!!!hmmmm amf douchebag
No egg throwing when ur a Lt driving down the Ryan. Congrats buddy
how about a class of evidence techs?
3/28/2014 08:50:00 AM
No more ET's to be promted. Dic's are being trained to do the ET's job. Forensics however will only come out for newsworthy events.
Nice. Juan Rios makes meritorious Lt. this week.
Last week his wife made meritorious Sgt.
It's ALL LEGIT!
At least I know a few more names on this list, than the last Sgt's.Congrats to all that earned it.
Old Retired Guy
L.t Magic you're leaving at the right time. Mass Transit being disbanded before summer. Fact !!
To 3:03 PM I don't know if Rios is merit or not but I worked for Juan when he was a Sgt and I would be happy to work for him again. He knows what he's doing and he's a good worker who will back you up.
congrats to Mike Kennedy and Terry McMahon two of the best. They never forgot where they came from.
Magic has made me a better person. I can now listen to my wife yell & complain all day long without wearing my earplugs! He saved my marriage.
Congrats to the Area One Sgts that made it !

Cant wait for the order to dust for prints or take gunshot residue test. Going to laugh right in their face and fuck it up so bad it wont make it past the preliminary hearing.
Most responsibility of any job in the dept. Hands down. $23 a day more than patrol. What a fukn joke. For those of you who want to get into the D Unit, be prepared. You won't be happy.
Congrats Lt Beasley!! What a PRINCE!
Good for you Ryle. Much deserved. Always looks out for his officers.
yes it's all legit, Rios and Rios, or is it Sandoval and Rios. I am confused.
Salutations!
Welcome to the ghetto!
Sad now you will see clouted SGT'S moved into the primo spots that were abandoned.
The academy will teach all the new LT's to throw patrol officers under the IPRA bus.
My favorite is seeing the New LT'S put back into awesome units disregarding seniority and skills.
Good luck...
Its bullshit that O'Malley from 004 was left of the list. Very intelligent and has been shot in the line of duty. More politics or age discrimination?
Worked for Zahn on tact.... Good guy knows his stuff, he will look out for blue shirts.
Was this off a test list, or were these all appointments?
Just proves if you work hard. You get nothing cooter said
The fact that a husband and wife get merit promoted a week apart from each other should be concrete evidence that the system is very flawed.. I am actually a fan of the Superintendent but this shows that it's just business as usual in the City of Chicago.. Nobody thought along the way that this is ethically wrong if nothing else.
Congrats to Terry McMahon, John Down and Tony Baio whoever gets these guys there the best of the best in this Dept
Is it true someone promoted to Sgt last Monday was merit promoted to Lt. today?
FYI. Rios made Sgt in 97 out of Area Four before Sgts were made by merit. So quit hating.
3/28/2014 06:32:00 PM
Not true. The last class with no merit was Apr 96
God bless merit promotions.Just look at the wonderful leadership it has provided the CPD.
Real leaders of men! The criminals that run our city are quaking in their boots! Seems that the Daley Crime Family still has it's grasy, thieving,fingers in CPD management.
Congrats Joey bagodonuts
i see mr peabody made it but no sherman? that's unfortunate.
can someone list three units for me. The only ones i understand are the districts
Hmm tons of merit on this list. Let's see ones former partner is currently in federal pen but he has been promoted twice since. I guess your cooperation paid off. Another was a good friend of fatty Phil and a test matter consultant. Another hasn't spent one day on street as a sgt.
97 before sgts were made b¥ merit? you kidding i hope.
I've worked in 025 for 15 years, and I've never seen (even heard of) the BAIO person......
New canine class 14 Apr. partner in 012 was just notified.
One of these married promotees has a habit of showing up late at night at female officers houses drunk and uninvited. Sounds like the type of guy that should be a merit appointee. Only the best and brightest!
TANNEHILL, Martin ?????
No clout there! lol

Really? They promoted detectives the fall of 2013? Where the hell you been?
If you end up getting terry McMahon be prepared for two things.... A lot of laughing and a sore liver in the morning... Congrats tmac, well deserved
Kennedy and Dowd are great people and have your back!
Juan Rios and his wife are good people and will make good supervisors, stop hating, just deal with it ok. Work for them anytime...
Reckard... Stand up guy, great boss and better friend. Real police. He has invested a lot into younger coppers. He actually cares about the job. Nicely done you sob

LOL, you must be really Green!
Sgt's, Lt's, Capt's etc. were being made by merit (clout, whatever) from back in the 60's and 50's you fool!
Congrats to all lieutenants who made it ! As usual lots of negative comments I see with no names attached to them must be worried now?
Area 1 has lost a lot of great people, MK, JE, JP, JD:; great place to be hopefully whoever follows does it the same way.
I don't begrudge those who got promoted "meritoriously" for taking it, but I do hate a system that "meritoriously" promotes incompetent people again and again.
One bite, one, is all anyone should be allowed of the merit apple. Fat Chance.
OT: Did any of you see this article in the Sun Times the other day? It basically rips the police saying that the cops always take the side of the male at domestics. Forget the fact that most of these victims refuse to press charges and if they do or if we sign complaints for them they don't come to court and forget the fact that the idiot who wrote this article and Dawn Dalton have never been to a domestic call before. Seems like Dawn is smearing the police in order to make herself and her organization seem like they are needed and relevant.

Congrats to Mike Kennedy and John Dowd. Good guys who know the job and know how to take care of their people. Stay the course lads. you've both been in the detective division for a while, but the guys in patrol need good leaders like you two!
Ab and ja both double merit wtf
Tony Baio is a great guy, who likes the working police!
Regardless of your comments about Ray Cowin, he is the working police. He is a smart guy!!! Whether, you love him, or hate him the reality about Ray is he always has the backs of the working police!

Get your facts straight!!! I was in that last legit class of sergeants with Juan Rios. We graduated 3 Mar 97. My final ranking was 3XX. If need be, I can probably dig up my letters. How about you? Every last one of us in that class made it on our scores alone!!!
Like most people, I don't agree with the merit process, but it is what it is. I strongly feel that if it's going to stick around, you should only be allowed ONE bite at the merit apple.
That said, crawl back into your parent's basement, troll, and GFY!!!
Hey Tony-Keep talking about yourself. Ask the Coppers at impound court what a stand up guy you are! Hey, How come you got removed from the court section at 26 and Cal??? Funny how your cured and off light duty just in time you Punk.

3/29/2014 04:14:00 AM
Oh come on Ray, stop talking about yourself in the third person.
Wow....just WOW! RC couldn't lead a one man band on an empty eight lane highway. He has single handedly rewritten most traffic laws to include "if the party in question is a police officer he /she is guilty, no matter how traffic videotapes actually prove him /her to be correct in their actions.....they are automatically in the wrong"..... and JR. "that detective should go to jail because no one told him to write that report that way...the investigation and the reports are his problem not his bosses " the same. JR who said that no one could run from a bus tire faster than him and he proved it by throwing his people under the bus so often that they call him the Sgt Roadkill. The same JR who outed a colleague D -Sgt with a football shaped head to his Lt. on the floor infront of everyone at Area N and added lies and rumors to bolster his case out loud upon a floor full of Dets who knew he was lying .....and he continued until a CR was threatened for demanding immeadite results or he would call his PRPA clout. Yeah these are two of the most asshat people anyone could say deserve to be promoted.....watch your backs out there these two will hurt you in a heartbeat. Dylan Hata.
Special congrats to Jackie Campbell, Jacqueline Ellison, Juan Rios and Stephanie Stuart. I've worked with all of them, and they're good people. Good lucj to all of you!
"I knew Harry the hat"
his old man. Wrong shit head thats his brother but its ok for you brother & sister = mom & dad. You dont know shit history buff, shut your trap!!!

No, the original poster is the one who is correct. There were NO merit appointees off the '97 Sgts. promotion list. MERIT didn't start until '98.
Going to be funny to watch the mad scramble when all these clout merit people try to go back to their units after they spend their token time in a district. The race is on!
One of these promotees was a partner of Miedzenowski and appeared in Rahm's TV commercial when he ran for Congress..
It's in the genes (or is that jeans) you know.
Funny always people crying about merit seem to work North...get a life crybabies!
Is this the same Juan Rios who use to work in 007 back in 97-99??
Ryle and Tannehill got made......unreal.
Congrats to Lt. McMahon. Well deserved. Guess the spider web becomes the officers club now.
Big Daddy (ret)
Before 1996 there were no merit picks once the city started giving tests for promotion. This is what started the secret study groups and some people actually given the test early. The Sergeants class made in December 1996 was held hostage for three months while a law suit was filed. The city actually won the suit, which they actually tried to loose, and no merits were added to the class. The Sgt's got promoted, Daley went nuts on Corp Council and took the list down well before the minimum of 500 had been made off the list he had promised. The city changed the personnel code so it could make merit in the future.
The city had not given a supervisors test for 9 years. There were good people on the list who thought they would get promoted because Daley promised to make at least 500 off the list. Anyone who thinks merit is not tied to politics just needs to study what happened in 1996. There aren't a lot left but you know any supervisor of dick who made it before Jan 1 1997 was not merit.
Congrats to Juan Rios. Well deserved.
To the person hating on his promotion, You got no clue.
3/29/2014 02:06:00 AM
This JO was at VRI the other night complaining that it took 17 years for his promotion. Too damn bad. Study harder and stop expecting the merit spot all the time.
Ray Cowin, is an old school copper, and a stand up guy. We could use a lot more, just like Ray.
Retired
I've worked in 025 for 15 years, and I've never seen (even heard of) the BAIO person......
3/28/2014 10:42:00 PM
Then you also have never impounded a car either I take it. He's one if the best court Sgts there is. He's at impound court and has saved many po's from deviations by calling their units to ask where they are. He's a good Sgt and will make a good Lt.
97 before sgts were made b¥ merit? you kidding i hope.
3/28/2014 10:34:00 PM
I made Sgt in Apr 1996 and it was rank order. No merit. We sat in the academy for 3 months while an injunction filed by 13 m/1 and f/1's was decided. Finally it was decided that the department did not reserve any merit in its original test announcement and therefore had to abide by that. 250 Sgts all in rank order. You'll never see that again.
Tony Baio is a great guy, who likes the working police!
----------
Then you have not seen one of the emails he is famous for sending xo's dss's and commanders where he calls out and insults the p.o. who makes a typo mistake or shows up 5 min late. Nice try SGT. BAIO.
If you dont believe me, ask your boss if he has got a nasty call or an email from him. Nice in person, back stabber in truth. Born to be a boss. We ignore his calls as office policy. Pimpy.
The He's the real police, he's the working police Bullcrap is getting real old. Time to grow up & get off your knees

I worked for both Harry's.
The REAL Harry "the hat" was Harry Hohm, aptly named for dumping a squad car into Lake Michigan & his hat floated to the surface. He was a complete tool.
Harry Tannehill was a Capt in 009 about 22 yrs ago.
I can only speak of him as my WC and he was a great Captain. Not sure about him as a DC.
The kid I know nothing about.
Maybe we can get a fresh set of merit appointees up in Area North because it's a little distracting having to hear or read about the current staff daily in the media!

No, you're wrong. The first poster is correct.
The Sgts test was given in 1993 and there were 3 classes made off of it.
First class was in 1994, second was in 1996, third class in 1997.
HEAVY!

Perhaps you're right, but he was never one of them. Shooing kids away from the white castle at Harlem and Belmont was all he did as a patrolman. When they needed him anywhere else off of 2511s beat he whined about it. Never saw him except roll call and checkoff. But whatever, I'm retired so good luck

Is it true someone promoted to Sgt last Monday was merit promoted to Lt. today?
3/28/2014 09:41:00 PM
Yes, its true. That person was a patrolman a week ago, then promoted to Sgt. last Monday and they fast tracked him in four days without taking the Lts. exam or merit interviews. Happens all the time.
Does he have to finish Sgts. school before going to Lts school.
What are you a moron?
Baio lived next door to PC would cut his grass
Mike Kennedy, John Dowd, and Terry McMahon, knew all of them since Patrol. None of them forgot where they came from and will all look out for their troops.
To the younger guys that work wherever these 3 end up, listen to them, they are on YOUR side.
Congrats to you all.

You had one conversation 10 years ago and label a guy a total prick? That's rough. If you really knew the guy, I think your opinion would change. His old man was a wagon guy up north. The classiest patrolman you would ever want to meet. His brothers, (one was a C/O) are CPD. All great guys! Yea, MT is alittle gruff, but he was always the working police. Worked with him for years and wouldn't trade a day for the world.
McCarthy will never be a man until he tells us who is merit promoted.
Why couldn't someone make bt.1070 a LT of mops somewhere anywhere!?! There is something seriously mentally wrong with this Mental Midget of Absolutely No Common Sense! Dear Mayor, nobody in the Dept has been able to right this inevitable trainwreck, can you!?

Don't talk when you know not what you talk about. The '94, '96 & '97 sgts classes were made from the Arthur Anderson Co. Administered test. The test that saw only a handful of minorities made. These classes were without merit.
'98 was the first class with merit. Sgts made before '94 were clouted up, but many made it legit.
3-29-14:00 Cowin stay off the blog you're starting believe your own BS. Congrats Pat, Steph and Johnny Rivers! All good to their people and sharp people themselves. Johnny was a Fillmore Ranger and a good one so stfu haters! All property crime Sgts should be made Lt with the compstat BS they have to deal with.
Still a Fillmore Ranger!
I see 3 names that were headed for 30 Pending before clout squashed the beefs. Amazing. Quite a few "legacy" players too. However, I do see a few very stand up names on there as well.
Thanks MT for saving a number of us and keeping us out of jail over the BS Green Tape. You took the heat which was BS.

Any relation to Harry " The Hat"?
If so, he's a dick. I had occasion to speak with him on the phone when he was a potrolman about 10 years ago. A TOTAL PRICK.
I knew his old man when he was CO in 016. The apple don't fall far from the tree.

Brother to Harry, also Mike (ret) and Brian.
I thought JA made Sgt in 96. No official merit then, but a lot of secret study groups.
Doss and Campbell merit ?
I don't have any clout and I ain't gonna complain about it. Those who complain about it all the time on the blog need to just stf up. I guarantee there are no geniuses on this job getting passed over for promotions by those with clout

You're like a dog that enjoys a piece of fatty grizzle from the master's plate while he feasts. Later on he'll let you sit by his feet while he naps in his chair. Have some pride in yourself. They are no more deserving than you or anyone else.
My heart is broken: Tony Baio was a PRINCE at DOAH! We are going to miss him! Guess nothing good stays at Superior St for long. God bless, Lt Baio!
Only met Beth Giltmier one time. But worked for her DAD Jack in the ole 006th District. He was a GREAT Sgt who took no BS from anyone, citizens and loud-mouthed coppers alone. Remember he put some asshole hating copper in his place at Roll Call one morning. Big prick wanted NO PART of Giltmier. After roll call we all laughed at the gangbangin fool who was the police. Who eventually went to and to this day is in the penitentiary. Humble guy who knew the job. Went on calls with me not to check up but to back me up. I used to run retirement parties in old 006 and a month before Jack retired he caught me in the pklot of station and said, "Don't you dare throw a party for me. Just want to walk out." Kinda granted his wish. RIP Jack. But even meeting daughter Beth the one time when she was a Sgt knew she would be a great boss! Congrats Beth. I know your Dad's Proud and Smiling down on you. TC
Congratulations to the "Mayor of Mt Greenwood", Terry Macmahon. Great guy. We miss you in 022.
Congratulations!
Glad you made it everyone. Merit or not doesn't matter. Working police, jag off, desk officer or a unit hack with a phone call... doesn't matter.
Just take care of your people to the best of your ability. If any one of us was offered a promotion, we would've taken it too.
If you are a good test taker good for you as well. You played by the rules and got it fair and square.
Please take care of us blue shirts. As you know by now we are screwed.
MT? Wow, he couldn't lead a one car funeral procession... And a few others here that are in the "box of rocks" category...
FYI. Rios made Sgt in 97 out of Area Four before Sgts were made by merit. So quit hating.
Not true merit has been arround since Daley became mayor. Daley was made mayor in the 80's.
Glad Sgt Magic is gone from Mass Transit. He is a loud mouth and a real asshat. If it wasn't for daddy, he would still be a blue shirt answering jobs. He has never had a bad assignment, always taken care of by daddy Magic. We feel sorry for the district he goes to as a Lt.

You're correct. MT and the former commander are brothers. I actually worked with their father, Harry Sr. Old time wagon man in the old 20th District. He was definitely the best of all of them.

You are correct, sir. Before the City of Chicago bastardized their still undefined word "merit", we simply called the morons and political hacks what they truly are--CLOUT CHEATERS!
Click HERE
"Merit" is nothing more than this most corrupt City's euphemism for Management Arbitrary Discretion [aka M.A.D.]
MAD can include bribery, nepotism, cronyism, sexual favors or any combination thereof. It does NOT include the Merriam-Webster definition of the word "merit". Don't even get me started on the "Gold Braid" pension scam.
City of Chicago: Take your "merit" and shove it up your collective asses. Call it what it is, you shameless muthafuckahs!

Buried deep in the General Orders/Specials Orders lies the answer to your question. You're gonna make a great boss someday! Get on CLEAR and look it up yourself, dummy!
Congrats to these new Lt's
ANDRUZZI JR, Joseph
RYLE, James
BAIO, Antonio
DOSS, Darren
CAMPBELL, Jackie
RECKARD, Jonathan
Good Luck!
Baio, you still owe me an honorable!!!
Congrats Marty, You will be a great Lieutenant. I was there when you did the right thing for one of my guys, saved his career and probably his life. Where ever you go, they will be lucky to have you.
I'll cover the hunt while you are on the midnights! Congrats again brother.
How about talking about the facts that only one hispanic made it on that list, what's so fair about that. There are lots of qualified hispanics sergeants that would make great Lieutenants. So do you think it's fair? Stop hating on Sgt. Rios he's a great person and an outstanding supervisor.
CONGRATS MARTY T. AND JOE BRENNAN; YOU'RE BOTH DESERVING SERGEANTS AND WILL MAKE GREAT BOSSES!
Gratz to JD and the rest!
Decent=descent. Damn swype.

I worked for both Harry's.
The REAL Harry "the hat" was Harry Hohm, aptly named for dumping a squad car into Lake Michigan & his hat floated to the surface. He was a complete tool.
Harry Tannehill was a Capt in 009 about 22 yrs ago.
I can only speak of him as my WC and he was a great Captain. Not sure about him as a DC.
The kid I know nothing about.
3/29/2014 09:18:00 AM
Harry was a Roger Whalen protegee serving as his tact lt. in 009 when Roger was commander there. I believe they were wired to Jane Byrne so that goes back over 30 years. There were five Tannehills on the job ... Harry Sr. and his sons Harry Jr., Mike, Marty & Brian. Never worked with or for Harry Jr. but worked with all his brothers and they were all good people as far as being stand up.
Really? They promoted detectives the fall of 2013? Where the hell you been?
3/28/2014 11:46:00 PM
Not true, last detective class was 24-Dec-2012. The d unit is budgeted for 1000 detectives, we are under 800. We have cases coming out of our ears, but that's all good-you can only do the best you can with the resources they give you. Don't sweat the small stuff, it's still the best spot in the department.

I too worked with the father at 020 and he and Fleischman were the best. Kids don't always follow the father path, but also the job is different now.

You history is correct. Actually started in the mid 60's in 020. Roger was a cadet there, Harry a tact man. Think there also was a connection with Wrigley Field security. Not sure about Harry,but the others were pretty good guys.

He's starting that rumor up again? It ain't happening. Just like the last three times he started that rumor it didn't happen.
How does McStreetlight promote over 200 Sgt's the past two years when they haven't promoted one detective the past 3+ years
There will never be a detective "promotion". It's not a rank. They're assigned, not promoted.
Most responsibility of any job in the dept. Hands down. $23 a day more than patrol. What a fukn joke. For those of you who want to get into the D Unit, be prepared. You won't be happy.
If you're not happy in the D Unit, you can resign your assignment as a detective and go back to you position as an officer.

Roger Whalen was a Prince when on the job, but why he took care of that jag Harry was a mystery to many people.

This statement by definition also means they are just as deserving as you and me and anyone else.
I have no problem with that. would you pass up a promotion ? If you would you are stupid.
Congrats to BP! The west side is calling you back.
011/Retired
16 years between Sgt and Lt? I guess Juan was probably more of a lucky guesser than a successful tester the first time back in the early 90's. If he was that smart, he would've made it a long time ago on his own and wouldn't have needed to beg for merit.
BTW Juan is for Juan first, next comes the hispanics last is everyone else. Worked for Juan saw it first hand

3/30/2014 01:15:00 AM
Get ready to be continually disappointed. Back in the 90's in A/4VC we were bitching about the workload and how we were down at least 15 detectives due to retirements and promotions, etc. One day the Lt. comes out and says not to worry. We were back up to snuff with detectives. We thought there must have been a promotion, right? Nope. The city just reduced the number of budgeted positions. That's how the city solved the man power problem.
Stop whining about the promotions it is what is accepted and move on everyone on that list is deserving be happy for them if you were in their shoes people would be happy for you as well.

Spoke with him also on the phone a few years ago...still a prick. Dumb + arrogant=Merit (again).

You had one conversation 10 years ago and label a guy a total prick? That's rough. If you really knew the guy, I think your opinion would change. His old man was a wagon guy up north. The classiest patrolman you would ever want to meet. His brothers, (one was a C/O) are CPD. All great guys! Yea, MT is alittle gruff, but he was always the working police. Worked with him for years and wouldn't trade a day for the world.
3/29/2014 10:08:00 AM
He's definitely still a prick. And, to top it off, a merit prick.
Talking about GREAT BOSSES now retired-myself included-who have kids OTJ and know that they are worthy of promotions but won't happen unless they ACE a test. We talk here about the "Old Time" bosses who were assholes or great. Tom Faragoi was without the best boss I ever worked for. Got fucked for political reasons but excellent boss and copper. I Fucked up many yrs ago with some BS and Tom took care of my young family and me! Will never forget that SIR. Know you fly in from FL for every St.Jude Parade. Saw you at the March and at MDW. Know your kid is doing fine OTJ. He should be promoted to carry on how this job used to be. Fuck these other kids on now and their asshole daddys who make rank. U da best Tom. TC
Worked with him for years and wouldn't trade a day for the world.......
Wow sad life
Do not mention the "green" tape when you don't have a clue what you are talking about or know what went on behind closed doors. I saw I heard I know!
