Well, This Would be a Bombshell
They've kept a tight lid on this if true:
- Well let me add this "leak"; there will be some Major Changes in the City Council and Rahm will capitalize on them. The "Dean" of the City Council has beaten the Feds, but he has not beaten the Grim Reaper. Ed has stage 4 Cancer, and his departure will have an impact on all aspects of City Government. The last of the Old White Guard is about to exit and will probably be replaced by a Hispanic.
Anyone know?

Somewhat true. Diagnosis is NOT stage 4. Probably at least a year or so before resignation or retirement.
Hispanic -Latino politicians are the rage all across the nation.
Hey SCC,
I would like to take a minute to reflect on the 2 officers killed in las Vegas a few weeks back. Two officers killed for no reason is heart breaking as we all know. My prayers are still with their families. I would like to take one minute to look at the 3rd victim in this shooting as well. According to the link from CNN, he was a licensed concealed carry holder who confronted the armed male suspect, not knowing about the female accomplice. CNN barely mentions this in the link. Being that these events transpired after the death of two police officers in a crowded store, how many lives did the concealed carry subject save confronting an armed assailant? 50? 100? Being that an armed citizen took action and the gunmen had to deal with that threat. Lives were saved. That person should be deemed a hero as well as the officers who gave their lives. Any coverage in the media in support? Nah. A blurb on page 4 of the CNN article. My wife knows my job is dangerous and supports me because I choose to try to make some kind of difference. I hope the 3rd victims wife realizes what a hero her husband was. He saved lives, being armed and ready to defend.

Two on bicycles help foil an iPhone robbery
7:46 p.m. CDT, June 20, 2014
"A high school senior and a 47-year-old man on bicycles helped police nab a juvenile suspect who’d snatched an iPhone from a woman Thursday night in the South Loop...
“I know I’m fast on the bike,’’ said Muchin College Prep senior Benjamin Rivera, 18, of the Humboldt Park neighborhood. “So I just dashed around and went after him.’’
"Rivera... [was headed]home on his...bike about 7 p.m. when he heard a woman screaming near 9th and State streets.
He spotted another bicyclist, a 47-year-old South Loop man who saw the robbery, on the corner and they both went into action as the suspect ran away. Rivera raced up to the woman and asked her what the robber was wearing – green clothing.
"The victim, a 28-year-old lawyer, was walking home from work when someone bumped her on the right side, according to a police report. The teen suspect grabbed her phone from her right hand and she struggled with him but was not able to keep the phone. He ran east through an alley as the woman began yelling: “Hey, he took my phone,’’ according to a police report.
"She, Rivera and the 47-year-old biker gave chase. “We were together,’’ said Rivera of he and the 47-year-old.
"At least two other people helped, including a woman who used an app that tracks an iPhone, the report said.
Rivera and the other biker "cornered him’’ at Roosevelt Road and Wabash Avenue in front of a Trader Joe’s, where the suspect pushed the woman to the ground, knocking her glasses off and causing a rip to her sweater as she landed on her right elbow, according to Rivera and the report.
“Give me back my phone,’’ she screamed.
“Lady, I don’t have your phone,’’ he told her before running away again, the report said.
"Rivera dialed 911 and they kept following him as he ran east again. The 47-year-old saw him try to throw the phone on a roof but it smashed to the ground near 10th and State streets. The man grabbed it and was able to get it back to the victim. Though it hit the ground pretty hard it appeared to still be functional.
"Police got to the scene and the 17-year-old Englewood neighborhood suspect was taken into custody at 15 W. 9th St. where he stopped running.
“He was wearing all green, kinda almost fluorescent clothing,’’ said the 47-year-old. “But he was not a real bright individual.’’

Quick! Kill the comments!
I hope not we need him to stay in office, he's the last one fighting for (us) without him it will suck.
Don't like Burke but still sorry to hear about this. Terrible disease.
Stephanie L. Kwolek, Inventor of Kevlar, Is Dead at 90
Ms. Kwolek, a DuPont chemist who invented the technology behind Kevlar, a virtually bulletproof fiber that has saved thousands of lives, spent 15 years in the laboratory without a promotion before her breakthrough.
A DuPont spokeswoman estimated that since the 1970s, 3,000 police officers have been saved from bullet wounds through the use of equipment reinforced with Kevlar, which is far stronger and lighter than steel.

Whether you like him or not and whether he lined his pockets as head of the Finance Committee or not, I do know personally that Burke also took really good care of seriously injured coppers through the Finance Committee, getting them all kinds of things off the books (as it would have taken months if not years to get those things otherwise) and never saying anything to anyone about it. My former partner will never walk again. Burke couldn't have been better to him and his family. Sure; it's not coming out of his own pocket but he got the City to do what's right and did it without having to wait. He's OK in my book.
In Chicago whites are now the minority. Time for them to step down.
There's a place for people like him and it's not heaven.
Burke's a piece of shit. He worked with Mike Madigan to gerrymander his ass into Garfield Ridge. Not a darn word from the media about this.
So what is it about TL that makes him a bad guy? Be specific now. Was it expecting you to do the job you were paid to do or something else? Did he ask you to do something you are not paid to do? Again, be specific.
Nothing? So that makes you just another whiner.
On a side note: I am not much of a forgiver. I do not wish the Superintendent or Ed Burke well. We forgive too much. They are two reasons why we are in the mess we are in.
I'll tell ya exactly what makes him a complete fucking moron. This clueless fuck expects contact cards anovs search warrants and no pcs arrest. "This will get the murders down in 011". And if these are not done in the box that you are assigned, it dosnt count. This guy is braindead he expects guys on the watch to do search warrants we can barley get time to eat a lunch on 3rd watch. Doesn't want pcs arrest? This is 011 wake up they are selling drugs through out the district. You can just tell he hasn't done an once of police work is entire career. Search warrants, you have to get somone dirty to give up an sw. But we will keep doing anovs and contact cards that's what you want. Oh yeah while you and the commander keep fucking with the bust out hypes on Roosevelt. Give them another anov so they don't have to buy tolet paper they will just use the anov.
He was always papmered. Now he will be again.
A relative saw Burke, wife and McCarthy together at a fundraiser is early May and thought Justice Burke looked ill, not the alderman. If this is true, got to have compassion for the guy as cancer and the treatments that come with it are a bitch.
Which one of Burke's relatives will be ANNOINTED to become the next Alderman??
Voters will be ignored by the political elite!
If this guy take the dirt nap, you think it's bad now? Rahm has control of the piggy bank wait till you see your tax bills where it finally shows how much rahm and the criminal crew are stealing, and just wondering where all our money goes!
I would be surprised by this news because I saw him at Hawthorne Park a few months ago (attending a high school fundraising event) and he looked fine. Additionally, according to the news, Burke has attended quite a few other public events and, if he has been taken ill, it has not interfered with his work schedule yet.
can you say Hugo Chavez?
He will buy some more time he has more money then god
Topper 011 Sgt is the terror of Touhy ave. When he talks about his great achievements. Ask him about that one....
Burke. And it will have a major impact upon how things are done. He was something of a buffer against Rahm's tyranny.
Where's my VRI money?????
in his mind, he probably thought he was a wonderful person...
He looks pretty healthy for stage 4Would think he would have mised more council mettings if it was in fact stage 4.
They have a special place in hell just for politicians like him! If you were not part of the in click of Irish pols you were OUT!
If true MAY HIS SOUL ROT IN HELL!
Damn !! That's a shame. Burke is like a de facto Mayor much like Madigan is the de facto Governor. Except Burke actually likes the Police and has helped us when he could. Remember 1983 when then Mayor Washington tried to layoff over 100 Police Recruits, the first time in history that police were to be laid off, and Alderman Burke led the way to stop the layoffs by getting a Court Stay for 72 hours which coincidently was the same amount of time needed for the Recruits to finish their one year and become bargaining members of the FOP. I was one of those Recruits. Thanks Alderman Burke. You will always have a special place in my heart.
Yup. 27 year old female Chicago lawyer. Any guess as to how she votes? LOL.

Wrong. Stage four cancer can be diagnosed. Stage four cancer is when the primary cancer has metastasized and spread to other areas of the body. If the cancer is discovered after it has metastasized, that is then when the diagnosis is made.

AND the morons are putting an ORCHARD on the triangle of land by the blue line station. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?
There is no traffic congestion to 'fix'. The square has worked JUST FINE for a hundred years, but now it needs a multi-million dollar reroute? Total assholes. How to turn a quality neighborhood into a multimillion dollar trashpile."

New sensors will scoop up 'big data' on Chicago
3:32 p.m. CDT, June 20, 2014
"The curled metal fixtures set to go up on a handful of Michigan Avenue light poles later this summer may look like delicate pieces of sculpture, but researchers say they'll provide a big step forward in the way Chicago understands itself by observing the city's people and surroundings.
"The smooth, perforated sheaths of metal are decorative, but their job is to protect and conceal a system of data-collection sensors that will measure air quality, light intensity, sound volume, heat, precipitation, and wind. The sensors will also count people by observing cell phone traffic.
"Some experts caution that efforts like the one launching here to collect data from people and their surroundings pose concerns of a Big Brother intrusion into personal privacy..."

Nice.
HQ is working on something regarding dept. Reorganization primarily in the Det. Division along with manpower allotment for district based on crimes per capita on the district level. This will be a major announcement by Rahm after summer to kick off his campaign for reelection. Reorganized Det. Div. reassignment to district level, re allotment of district staffing levels and new hiring. All this along with a new f/1or M/2 supt. This is being kept pretty quiet for now since all the house mice at HQ are very worried about what ends up on this blog. All the bosses are very concerned about appearing on SCC but they all read it on their IPhones since they don't want anything linked to their blackberries or computers incase someone sends in an IT guy to search the history. But comp-post is here to stay since they can manipulate the numbers without anyone questioning them. Also look for the contract to be settled around Sep-Oct for political reasons.
Sorry, I have no remorse for Burke. How many people has he driven to a grave by his actions?
I would like to respond to the lovely post by the officer who took the time to mention the police shooting in Las Vegas. I retired from CPD and moved to Vegas. In over 30yrs with CPD I had the misfortune of attending to many killed in the line of duty funeral's. It was a sad day here however I have never seen civilians come together so quickly in support of all three victims. This occurred on a Sunday and by Monday morning there were fundraiser's all over the valley. In the first day almost 100,000 dollars were raised and everywhere you go since they are still collecting. Thank you Las Vegas.
His brother Joe who was the police died from cancer. He was a good guy! God bless him.
Best news I heard all week, he might have helped us every once in a while, but he helped himself all the time, at the expense of every taxpayer.
eddie burke eddie the jerk
This is terrible news for his 6 bodyguards.
Where will they go?
What will they do?
Maybe Ed Burke can request a reduction of alderman by 30 and save the city millions of dollars a year before he retires . A good man , former police officer .
Part of the Vrodrolyak 29 , they got Swyer elected Mayor, the poor guys legs gave out when he won .
re CNN post,
I see nothing in the article about a concealed carry being on site......and CNN would be the LAST one to report that.
He did more good for the police than he did bad. L.E. loses a lot of their dwindling clout in the Council when he goes
Prayers for Chairman BURKE, He is a good man like his late dad.
TO: 6/21/2014 03:00:00 AM
Here in Vegas he IS being treated as a hero. His funeral is tomorrow and a big turnout is expected. The whole valley is donating and the 3 families of the heroes are all being taken care of. His funeral will be broadcast by local affiliates in its entirety.
They know how to treat heroes here……..
Almost 50 years of city employment and he won't get one pension check.
Say what you want about Burke, but I have seen him at many Police Officer's wakes and funerals and not all were Line of Duty services. Seemed to not have forgotten where he came from.
Off topic. I had court at 26 and Cal the other day and parked my car next to a marked Tahoe. I returned to find my brand new car had been side swiped with white paint that transferred over causing over $1500.00 in damages.

For whatever its worth the Las Vegas media did cover this extensively and very positively. Funerals for the officers were covered on live tv in totality (3 hours +) and the stories are still covered in local papers. Mr. Wilcox was deemed a "hero" by Metro (police) and his service is set for tomorrow.

Another political hack I have to pay taxes for and no benefit to the city or my family
Considering the vicious anti-whitist agenda of our elite political maestro's, I'd be beating on a mestizo replacement. Since the Grim Reaper is an acolyte of the arch-aliniskism known now as Obamaism, prehaps one of the pre-teen Guatemalean refugee's invited in by POTUS Bongo could be appointed to vacancy.
When one has the ideal political believers in place, as we do now, there's really not much reason for expensive & "divisive" elections anymore when an appointment will do just fine
No one in Chicago politics leaves with clean or empty hands. Heard a lot of good things about Burke and some bad. Don't wish cancer on any one. It is a terrible disease that destroys families. Burke was a Chicago police officer before he became an alderman. I have heard good stories about how he helped fellow cops. All I have to know.

As a retired Police Sergeant, Life member of the NRA & ISRA, I think of Ed as the Michael Bloomberg of Chicago. He pushed his gun control agenda his whole career and he carried 24/7. He treated a lot of people like shit. His father was always known as a gentleman, Ed is not. These politicians must realize, they can't take it with them, they will die just like the rest of us. We don't hear from Shortshanks much anymore, do we?
Say what you want about Burke, but I have seen him at many Police Officer's wakes and funerals and not all were Line of Duty services. Seemed to not have forgotten where he came from.
AND? HE has continued to keep a star and enjoy the benies of our pension etc
Will they retire his star too?
Get the Fuk off your Knees!!
Fop is a failure... No faith in them they are a bunch of hacks collecting a check.police welfare program..

heres a prime example why I Fart On U guy is right on (most of the time) becuase of coppers that are JOs. Old School Cops are almost extinct which is too effin' bad because douches like the one that damaged your car need to have their asses handed to them. Shit like this would NEVER had happened 20+ yrs ago. If guys like this are too small of men to man-up and handle and admit they effed up and take care of it and make you whole, they would also prob treat you off duty and your family members like shit on a traffic stop, etc, etc. Glad I only have 3 to go.
Coincidently, with every crook, they always have an ailment when they're about to be indicted.

That was over 30 years ago. What have you done for me lately? Why can't his "committee" pay medical bills inside of a year or more. How many police have had their credit destroyed by Ed Burke and his "committee" on finance?

Yes, yes, and yes. One on-duty incident, three bills that didn't get paid for nearly two years. I knew if I paid them out of pocket, I'd NEVER get reimbursed. So, my credit took over a hundred point hit for about three years and it nearly took an act of Congress to get my mortgage approved because of it.
Am I a hero?

What the fuck is up with stand up inspection everyday in 007. Save your go get'em bullshit and just give us persons of interest, and recent/critical info. That's how it used to be. Other than that, leave us alone, and let us do our job. Most of us like to work and don't mind helping out when asked to get something. We already work in 007, we don't need to be fucked with. People are leaving left and right. A huge benefit of 007 has always been the bosses. Too many new ppos/foot running the show, too many new sgts being moved all around, some new sgts afraid to make a call and shakey, inspection everyday, and go get'em speeches every roll call.
PLEASE just shut up and do your damn job! SO WHAT you have a stand up inspection...guess what? Most of us who have more than 30 years of service can recall those days. Get your ass to work on time, stand up and go do your job. My God, when did the CPD hire such a bunch of entitled whiners?

Really. You have to actually stand up? The inhumanity!
Stand up,shut up, go out to your squad and be done with it.
Off topic. I had court at 26 and Cal the other day and parked my car next to a marked Tahoe. I returned to find my brand new car had been side swiped with white paint that transferred over causing over $1500.00 in damages. Thanks to the upstanding copper who was to lazy to do the paper and leave me with the headache. Karma is a bitch to the jag. Hope you get it ten fold
Similar shit happened to me. Squared parked inches from my car, nothing was damaged though. The copper was going to his squad when I was heading to my car. I said something to him and he was a bitch and cowered away.

I agree. Who gives a fuck if ray ray shot man man. And quit fucking quizzing us
6/21/2014 01:01:00 PM how do you know it was a squad car that hit you? Do you actuclly have proof. Perhaps they have a cam in the lot you could pull the video from.
Most Chicagoans and I have no sympathy for Ed Burke. In my opinion, a crook and a scoundrel.

++++++++++++++++++++
a thought...is it possible that another white car hit you? From your story it points to the Tahoe....but who knows?
Ed Burke is a rat for the G you can take that to the bank
If true MAY HIS SOUL ROT IN HELL! ...
Comments like this make me glad to retire and get away from the low class of this job
During operation Greylord Burke and his wife were identified by F.B.I. informant Robert Cooley in Federal court as taking bribes to fix cases and that were mob attorneys. Everyone else in Greylord that Cooley testified against either did time, were disbarred or disciplined not Burke and his wife he got more power and she became a Supreme court justice. Unfucking believable. Goes to show you even the FEDS are corrupt. Rat bastard.
To 6/21/14 @ 6:07 pm,
I was just stating what I have seen many times. You have nothing better to say, you must live a small life. Now go back to your mom's basement and play with your Xbox. No I am not a merit, promotion by exam rank low 200's from the 2002 exam .

He's worse than that.
"Joe Burke was a clout baby of the 1st Class and useless
Merit Detective
FBI Terrorist Task Force
Intelligence Section
Cold Case Squad
then he retired and all of his qualifications made him eligible to be
Deputy Chief-Forest Preserve Police
6/22/2014 04:50:00 AM"
Actually He worked for Adult
Probation, died a few years back. Perhaps you'll join him real soon D-Bag.
A hater posts:
"During operation Greylord Burke and his wife were identified by F.B.I. informant Robert Cooley...even the FEDS are corrupt. Rat bastard."
I call 'Bullshit' on this!
If anyone was a 'Rat Bastard', it was Cooley saving his own skin.
Some of these posts, obviously some from the general public yet other by the Police are absolutely heartless and an embarassment coming from professionals.
To those posting Positive opinions-thank you.
This devestating disease could happen to your family too...or even YOU!
The Burke family, a Police oriented family-has always been there for the Police and their families in time of need.

Alderman Burke and his family are very good people and this bashing is a shame. If true it is sad and this could happen to any of us and I pray for the Burkes and even my worse enemies that no one suffers from this.
"I call bullshit on this" what are we in a schoolyard. It is fact that Cooley testified in Greylord and named Burke and his wife. Others went to jail on Cooley's testimony but nothing at all happened to the Burke's. Why are they different oh unless they cooperated and still are.
"Sneed: Exclusive...." You had the scoop before mainstream media....good work SCC!

The investigative portion of greylord ended in 1984. The trials continued for another 10 years. Anne Burke finished law school in 1983 and was appointed directly to the appellate court in 1987. Obviously a big clout move, but how was she fixing cases her first year out of law school? Cooley talked shit about Ed in his book, but that was it. These people are rotten enough without making things up. It kills your credibility when you lie.
Let me get this straight you can't fix cases your first year as a lawyer in Chicago in the late 70's early 80's but you can be appointed to the appellate court four years out of law school. WOW what logic.
What's this guy talking about you can fix your first case after you pass the bar exam.
Anne Burke wasn't appointed to appellate court in 1987 she was appointed to claims court. Get your lies straight.
