Weekends Now Only 30 Hours

Counting the weekend totals before the weekend is even done - McCompStat has to stop the bleeding somehow, so why not declare the weekend over?
  • One person was killed and at least 16 others have been wounded in shootings across the city since Friday night.

    The fatal shooting happened Friday night when two men were shot in the West Garfield Park neighborhood.

    The men – ages 52 and 53 — were standing in an alley in the 4300 block of West Jackson about 7:20 p.m. when a maroon-colored minivan pulled up alongside the two, police said. A male in the van started talking to them and eventually pulled out a handgun and opened fire.
The final totals will be hidden in a blizzard of other news - missing Malaysian airliners, Ukrainian invasions, more Obamacare intrigue...oh wait, no one is talking about that one.

In the meantime, 23 days of March 2014 have matched the March 2013 entire month totals. That means homicides are up in February and will be up in March, meaning the trend (if you follow the CompStat manipulation) is upward once again, no matter what Rahm and McCarthy claim about crime in general.

Everyone knows that statistics can present a false picture. Just keep telling yourself that for 2014 the shooting rate is down. Keep repeating it.

as chicagoans are pushed into poverty at a jaw-dropping rate his highness has a presser to boast about cta blue line ridership increasing at a 22 percent annual rate as though this represents some sort of positive success growth story,

city so busted out its workforce they can no longer afford to drive a car.

we are then told about all the money the divvy bike riders are saving by not driving in the city.

hey why not raise the city taxes on fuel, parking, tolls on the highway. add more red light and speed trap cams so these numbers will be even more impressive to the non-believers.

I feel sorry for the good people stuck with the catch and release criminals in their neighborhoods.

"Weekends Now Only 30 Hours"

This man is clearly a genius!

No previous superintendent could control time!

Not only has he figured out how to cherry pick time periods which show favorable drops in certain crimes, he has figured out how to shorten what is typically one of the most high-crime time periods; the weekend.

This summer's going to be interesting.

Ms. Koschman is now suing the city claiming the chicago police department violated her son's civil rights.

With all due respect, the puncher violated his civil rights, not the investigators.

Nothing the officers or detectives did contributed to his death

I thought it was never about the money.

Lets see who will be representing her... Loevy and Loevy???Ekl????

Has anyone seen the "new" death investigation classification they added to the UCR??

Hey news media you all about to get duped.. Lol but keep printing those record low stats they feed you morons!!

No different in Louisville, KY. Google in "Louisville downtown attacks." A group of 200 "juveniles" attacked visitors around their downtown area over the weekend and in Louisville's Waterfront Park.

Their local media and police asked for help identifying the criminals. But of course they purposely left out the criminals' race.

This city and cities throughout this country, are powder kegs. Lack of manpower will come back and bite the mayor and Supt. in the ass. They will be forced to call out the national guard and if you think that's far fetched, we wont have long to find out. This country and this department are an absolute mess. Sad

No... it was sarcasm.
I am an Old Timer/Retiree who remembers shift rotation and when watches changed every 28 days. (Midnights to Afternoons to Days) All the new guys found that their DOGs were changed if their weekends were coming up.

The camaraderie was great and the watch parties were a gas back then but that sucked.
