Asshole Takes a Dirt Nap
- A teenager who was on parole for shooting a police officer in 2012 was killed in a Morgan Park neighborhood shooting Sunday night.
Jerome N. Harris, 17, was shot about 9 p.m. Sunday in the 1100 block of West 112th Place and died about an hour later at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, authorities said.
An autopsy determined Harris, of the 11000 block of South State Street, died of multiple gunshot wounds to the back, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office, which ruled his death a homicide.
Harris had previously been charged with several felonies for allegedly firing shots at a police officer in August 2012, according to police and court records.
Police said the teen and an officer fired at each other about 8 p.m. Aug. 29, 2012, in the 1300 block of West 112th Place — an incident Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy called a “gun battle.” The officer was hit in the leg, and the teen in the leg and side, police reports said.
Harris pleaded guilty in October 2013 to aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, and aggravated assault of a police officer, court records show. The other charges, including attempted murder, were dropped.
And why, pray tell, was he even out on those charges? And why was the Attempted Murder charge dropped? He was most certainly eligible to be housed until 18 at Juvie and after that in the IDOC until his sentence was served. Shooting at the police is not a crime that should be treated lightly, no matter the age of the offender. Had he been imprisoned, he would not have had the opportunity to become another statistic.
Hey Garry? Start asking some questions like that. Or are you constrained by the politics of Rahm and Anita and Toni again?

With the CCASO, I'm surprised he actually got jail time and didn't go to some "rehab camp."
Y was the attempt murder charge dropped because the case fell apart that's why,mall these fucking merit bosses from gang intel and all the other OCD units that cause the detectives to chase the tail like a retarded dog, that's why....
All these outside units come in and we appreciate the help but instead of going out and doing your own thing how about checking with the detectives so the cases don't fall apart just like this. This case should get immediately sent to room 7
Why does the report say he 'allegedly' shot at a police officer when he entered a guilty plea and was convicted?
The Cook County Criminal Justice System at its finest. It's time these judges and prosecutors are held accountable, especially the judges. When is Anita up for re-election?
ASA chalks up another sure win with the plea deal.
Have fun pushin up daisies Jerome.
If they do not put the criminals away when they prey on the average citizen, why do you think they will put criminals away when they attack the police?
Besides, they had to make sure he was free to Vote Democrat in the upcoming elections.
99% of the people that shoot at the police in Chicago are Democrats.

Karma is a bitch right? Honor student!
just read that some little jagoff just got probation after being caught with a gun while on probation What the fuck????
Retired years and this shit still sticks in my craw
What goes around comes around.
Poetic justice, in the end everyone gets what they have coming.
Good.
The reason they let these scumbags walk is that socialists have so polluted the court system in Cook County that it will never truly recover. Soft judges and lawyers with dangerous leftist leanings for the most part. It must be hell to be a real lawyer working with those assholes.
There are just too many black and brown people in jail.

I just saw this on Yahoo Finance.
Illinois. Income from federally qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, certain capital gains on employer securities and Social Security are excluded from taxation in Illinois. However, the state sales tax is 6.25 percent, and property taxes can be higher than in other states. It was listed as one of the 10 best states to retire as far as taxes on income.
For God's sake. He was just a kid. He had his whole life ahead of him and was trying to get his life turned around, while he searched for equality.
Rahm and Anita will try finding a way of blaming an inanimate object - a gun - for their own failings to keep him in juvie, for granting him bail, and for generally failing to keep someone WHO SHOT AT A COP off the streets.
You had him, Anita. And you let him go.
if you have the right to protect yourself, EMPTY THE MAGAZINE!
Sir Donkey, esq
I hate the Trib's new mobile site for breaking news. Makes it hard as hell to keep up with shootings. Only one shooting/death on August 5th? Find that hard to believe.
Vaya con diablo.

Dropped shots at The Police?
Out in 3 years?
Fuuuhh-uck!

Crime is down I tell ya, let's have vri inside nightclubs how about it boss? Here is rahm looks nervous national news 40 shootings but crime is down!
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=10zQBZJ7bFo
When is the FOP going to put together a list of judges that must be removed from office? Whomever allowed this POS to go free after he shot a police officer should be dragged off the Bench! How does a judge let someone cut a "deal" that drops the Attempted Murder charge, when the officer was actually shot? You shoot a cop, there should be NO DEAL. As I have said to my students and as I said to my officers when I was a CPD Sgt.: "Your Life has less value in Cook County than it would have in Du Page or Will Counties, because the Prosecutors in Cook County are reluctant to prosecute to the full extent and intent of the law." (R.M. Aztlan, CPD Sgt. Retired)
"Hey Garry? Start asking some questions like that. Or are you constrained by the politics of Rahm and Anita and Toni again?"
EXACTLY.
best question posed in a post on this blog in a while.
what percentage of violent crimes are being committed by repeat offenders or shitbirds recently bounced due to liberal judges, lazy prosecution, or PC politics?
THAT's the meat of it.
The courts are a JOKE!
The prison and jails do not want prisoners.
Let them all out and shit can all the staff and guards. The state budget will be saved and we can live in the movie ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK.
Hell even are lock ups let screw ups out with in an hour.
I'm not a PO, so keep that in mind. I've never quite understood the laws which mandate higher penalties for shooting a police officer vs. any other innocent individual.
I'm not a criminal, have never even seen the inside of a jail cell, and have nothing but respect for good cops.
But let me say, if I'm shot and I'm innocent, I want the SOB who shot me to be punished with the same level of punishment as if he were to have shot a cop.
I think the message that is sent to criminals is, "you can get away with shooting Joe Shmoe but not a PO"
All shootings of innocent people should be equally punished. An attempt to take someone's life should be life in prison or capital punishment. Do you all agree?
Hey Garry? Start asking some questions like that. Or are you constrained by the politics of Rahm and Anita and Toni again?
Sort of like this. On parole for a gun charge, caught with another gun, gets probation again. I thought the gun laws were suppose to be tougher. Oh, that's right....only for the good guys.
http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/Rapper-Lil-Durk-Gets-Probation-on-Gun-Charges--270052981.html
Wow! The incident occurred Aug of 2012, plead Oct of 2013 and back on the street summer of 2014. What did he get fricken Boot Camp! That's pathetic. No consequences for his actions at all. Somebody needs to expose exactly what Judge thought it was ok to let this kid out so soon. Kind of hard to stop violent crime when there is truly little or no punishment. These liberals are getting exactly what they deserve letting these thugs back on the street. At least he didnt have a chance to shoot at another policeman, although iI'm sure he would have given the opportunity. Be careful out there boys and girls, they are literally feeding us to the wolves.
As Jerome "Curly" Howard would say "he was a victim of soicumstances".
But in all seriousness, he should have been housed. First at the IYA and then IDOC. Once again, the IL criminal justice system is a joke.
In a way, his blame can be blamed on the liberal do gooders for not having him where he should have been
More importantly, why does this liberal rag state he "allegedly" shot at a police officer in 2012 after the piece of refuse pled guilty to it???
Bye,Bye Motherfucker...
And just when you were going to get your GED and turn your life around.
O' wait you did turn around when you tried to run away.
I hope each bullet that entered your miserable body stung like a hot poker you miserable little scumbag.
Yes. People should try being anti-crime, not anti-gun. If you use a gun to commit a crime, you should go to jail for a long time.
Who cares that he became another "statistic" I am just glad his breeding days are over with.
who was the judge????????
Who was the judge and the ASA? We need to know
Cps honor student , could have received 5 extra points to become a firefighter ,police officer , I. Line for a city job as reformed offender.
Police. Do their jobs , courts. Not. Doing their jobs .
A story with a ending we can live with , had he been in jail , he'd be alive , now death sentence by fellow gang bangers .
Fkn shame he was not locked up !!
Fkn Great, end result, he was not locked up !!
A.Citizen
I'll bet if he shot a judge or politician he would have still been in jail. Only one solution, shot to kill and make sure you get the job done.
Best to leave this case unsolved. Don't waste any time investigating. Justifiable homicide, Case closed, move on.

They were right. At present there are only like 7 states that don't take pensions or deferred comp I collect both and avoid the 25% federal tax and the 5 % state income tax. 30% tax on your pension and deferred adds up
No excuse for him being out. Even if there was a reason they couldn't prove the attempted murder charge and dropped it, he still plead guilty to a charge that should have gotten him more time.
Harris got what was coming to him the dems will too.Never vote for a democrat again unless you favor the ruin of this country they are a plague a bunch of commie bastards from the top on down.
was this the coach of the little league baseball team in South Chicago neighborhood or was his Dad the coach of that team. What goes around certainly comes around!
Can anyone who was DIRECTLY involved with this investigation (minimum actually notified for court) give an accurate non-emotional explanation of why the attempt was dropped?
Maybe his momma and daddy should sue the State of Illinois for wrongful death due to the fact that he was not properly sentenced and incarcerated .
This is off topic but will someone grow some courage and let the Supervisor J.H. in 019 to refrain from going to the tanning bed and also stop pretending that he cares about officers. Stay away from that guy he is creepy
Who the heck was the states atty that handled this case? Utterly ridiculous
What's the beef? He got what he deserved! Sometimes things work out in spite or revolving door justice system.
How the F is a guy who tried to kill a cop on the effin' streets!!!!
Hey 12:20:00 AM:
Too many cooks spoil the soup. Lots of investigation from those Homan Circle jerk gang units, but too few real investigators. Lt R.D. from gang enforcement south is just one example on display. He is a mousy little Darling know it all. He has a habit of circumventing the investigatory process and tries to be real slick. Just get your activity from the Investigative Alerts after the Area South wraps up the states attorney approved investigation and puts the bow on top. Until then knock off the cutesy little stuff beating your own drums. Same for gang intel crew.

Open up Tamms and send these assholes down there. If nothing else they'd never find their way back to Chicago because they are waaayyy too stupid.
Maybe Chicago Magazine can do in-depth investigative reporting highlighting all that was done wrong. And let’s not forget that which was done lawfully and done right. Things won't change until there is transparency. Taxpayers and decent law abiding people want to know why crime is out of control and how the current government officials and their respective bureaucracies failed to protect the citizenry. This is a real world snapshot and case study into violence and the associated culture leading to the demise of a once working, gainfully employed middle class city. We were misled with verbal deception by those in charge with the promise of hope this changes!
Thanks,Karma!
Not trying to defend McStandardDeviation, but, isn't he on record already having said Chicago needs tougher sentencing? Appears as though all the senseless drivel about guns has deluded this part of his message. Sucks to be you, Gare Bear.
It’s an outrage this criminal was released and back out on the street for round two. Some intrepid reporter needs to look into the whole criminal prosecution process from beginning to end. Something doesn’t seem right. Or is this just business as usual? Maybe would could get on the record interviews with possible insight from court supervisors, police brass, defense attorneys and the associated judicial officials who administered justice in this most serious attempted murder of a police officer criminal case. Something obviously went wrong with this early release. South side social Darwinism seems to have worked and corrected this social justice wrong and also the gene pool
I'm glad they let him out...one less mutt I have to support with my tax dollars.

http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/9-1-1-dispatchers-insane-instructions-to-woman-whose-house-was-being-robbed-put-down-the-gun_08052014
An 80-year old woman in Florida who was recovering from hip surgery was relaxing in her home when two burglars smashed her back door window and made their way inside. When N.J. Logan realized it wasn’t her husband she grabbed her gun and immediately called 9-1-1.
According to Logan, who says she didn’t want to shoot anyone, the 9-1-1 dispatcher repeatedly urged her to put the gun down.
Logan’s response?
I’ll put the gun down when I see the police.
The burglars exited the premises before the police got there and no injuries were reported.

I'm not a PO, so keep that in mind. I've never quite understood the laws which mandate higher penalties for shooting a police officer vs. any other innocent individual.
The is a legit reason for tougher penalties against people for shooting a police officers. The police are "protected employees". Do some research as to why, and find the list of other "protecteds"
Also, I think you may be under the impression that the police are "cared" about more than a family member who is shot. That is not the case.

Yes, this is true. But, the democrats are planning a change in the constitution to allow a sliding income tax. The top tax rate would be 11% ( they admit this) and it would make pensions and social security partially taxable. this is their dream in the coming few years. Then they have the balls to say rauner wants to tax pensions. It seems they all are targeting retirement income, but can't do it without a change in state constitution. Whenever a democrat speaks of "fairness" or " pay your fair share" or "it is for the children" you know that you will get hosed.

I agree with both of you. Absolutely horrible.
I agree with the person,-not a cop- who thinks everyone who murders, or attempts to murder another should be locked up for life or more. That NEVER happens though, and they usually get out very quickly. Some get found "not guilty" even though they murdered someone. I am not a cop either, but I can fully understand why murdering a police officer carries a higher sentence, and rightfully so. I completely understand and agree that all should get life sentence's, but they gotta be real hardcore to murder a police officer, meaning those are the worst type of murderers. They have no concept of the laws, and think they're beyond following them like normal people do. I hope whoever reads this understands what I mean. These type of people are increasing daily. Very sad, but moreso very dangerous for whoever crosses their path. :-(
Here is my new favorite quote from Mcdrunky when asked about concealed carry in Illinois. This is what I said from Day One: More guns is not the solution to gun violence. That’s akin to saying everybody should drive drunk to stop drunken driving. It doesn’t work. Gary you are an idiot.

All shootings of innocent people should be equally punished. An attempt to take someone's life should be life in prison or capital punishment. Do you all agree?
No, I get what you are saying but remember this, there is a higher penalty to pay for attempting to murder a police officer because those police officers are sworn to act in the face of danger. You as a civilian can hear gunfire and run, as an officer you are charged with protecting the public, that's why there is a difference...

OT. Police involved shooting in 016, Harlem / Foster.
Squad cars flying passed my house from all directions.
Anyways, tuned in to gather info, 016 falling all over each other to provide assistance to the detective involved. Then a Sgt from area north gets on the air and asks for a call from the paper car ASAP. Hey sarge, the city doesn't provide cellphones. Scene still chaotic, crowd gathering, etc. The dispatcher had most of the pertinent information. Get your ass out of the office and turn the little flashing blue lights on and go to the scene. Let the police handle it.
Two bad guys in custody, didn't hear what started the event.
It's still good to know when one of us needs help we have twelve-thousand (give or take) coppers coming to help.
Hey Copper, the one who calls the BOSS McDRunky. Shame on you Meet me at 007. On Monday morning. say 8:00am ask for the copper with balls...

I;M sorry you are one the guys that could not get time off to go to a BQ...monday..
What's the point of even bringing in the State Police to serve warrants at this point?
Ridiculous.
Chicago needs another 3,000 police officers on the street now , not working in an office , under the desk , checking crime trending on a computer or working in a warehouse.
Hire more and reassign the office dollies .

It will be reverse seniority 5 coppers with 2 troopers thought rahm said we have enough police! 500 overtime a day and now this, hire hire hire rahm,you can't be this uncaring to the residents! You keep finding billions for vri and other overtime initiatives but none for pension obligations, why isn't Vanecko the other 1 not the murderer that stole over 60 million from our pension fund under federal custody? Would like to know what pension board trustees authorized this theft of our pension monies!

Percentage of white crimes committed remains steady with black and Latino crimes committed, but the jail population says other wise. I personally say keep them locked up. They are where a law breaker deserves to be. But it is shocking to know that even though crime is committed equally amongst races, jail populations sway towards one race(s) more than the other(s)
All shootings of innocent people should be equally punished. An attempt to take someone's life should be life in prison or capital punishment. Do you all agree?
No, I get what you are saying but remember this, there is a higher penalty to pay for attempting to murder a police officer because those police officers are sworn to act in the face of danger.

8/06/2014 07:09:00 PM
no. that's not why there is a difference. stiffer sentences and mandatory minimums mean the state (that's us, the people), intend to create a stronger deterrence because once you have police officers being killed among the rest of homicide victims without distinction, what you have is a lawless society.
It's not as though the courts care about cops more than anyone else, or see them personally as more important victims. But willingness to kill cops is an attack on a lawful society as a whole. Therefore, more egregious.
If this is the incident I thought of, He didn't shoot at the police, he shot the police
I'm the original poster on the question citizens vs. cops getting shot. Thanks for the responses. That's actually helpful.
The problem with IL and many other states and even at the federal level is the deterrent effect has been made a mockery. Criminals know the system and in the end this makes it more dangerous for you. I guess you all know this already.
I figure if some murderous gang member thinks "fuck the police, fuck everybody, so what if I go to prison, I WANT to go to prison" then he has nothing to fear shooting other gang members, innocent bystanders OR police.
Case in point- the fact that Ryan abolished capital punishment in IL. What a really foolish move.
We need to bring back capital punishment to the forefront in this country. My dad used to say start hangings at noon in the town center again for all to see and crime rates will drop. I believe he was right now.
These instances should be used in campaign ads against the powers that be. But "political consultants" (paid prostitutes) won't touch it out of their fear of being called "the r word" (racist).
Political consultants aren't about shaking up the system, they're all about protecting their place within the system.
The shitheads family should sue Anita Alverez and the CCSAO...if only this "child" was incarcerated for his previous crime he would never have been out and would never have lost his life to gun violence. What a broken system led by an incompetant person.

Boy, you must have scored really well on the sergeants exam.... Have you ever actually done any research in your life??? Do you know the whole "color of law" plus... What the hell is the difference between killing a 90 year old woman or a cop in so far as that shows a lawless society??? If you kill someone your actions towards society ( read into that police and citizens as a whole) are lawless... Nice try junior

Can't sue Anita Alvarez. She enjoys various types of immunity for her actions as CCSA, both absolute and qualified, depending on the circumstances. Very difficult to sue any CCSA or Ass't CCSA, very narrow grounds for suit and this ain't it.

What's the point of even bringing in the State Police to serve warrants at this point?
Ridiculous.

All show, all fluff, no substance. Half the desk people will retire rather than be "boots on the ground" for Bürgermeister Emanuel. You know, flat feet, fallen arches, poor posture etc.

They were right. At present there are only like 7 states that don't take pensions or deferred comp I collect both and avoid the 25% federal tax and the 5 % state income tax. 30% tax on your pension and deferred adds up
How, pray tell, do you avoid federal income tax?

He cheats on his taxes and when caught will plead ignorance and will be correct. The government will still screw him for failure to pay etc. He might be a sovereign citizen and slaps liens on judges etc.

Why does the report say he 'allegedly' shot at a police officer when he entered a guilty plea and was convicted?

I know of quite a few police officers who were allegedly shot and are now allegedly dead. The murderers were allegedly on death row until George Ryan decided to use the death penalty as his get out of jail trump card. Didn't work. Allegedly.

Just talked to a trooper ISP is asking for volunteers, 30 day detail per diem and lodging if needed, wonder if lodging will be at 4 seasons or peninsula hotels? It will be reverse seniority 5 coppers with 2 troopers thought rahm said we have enough police! 500 overtime a day and now this, hire hire hire rahm,you can't be this uncaring to the residents! You keep finding billions for vri and other overtime initiatives but none for pension obligations, why isn't Vanecko the other 1 not the murderer that stole over 60 million from our pension fund under federal custody? Would like to know what pension board trustees authorized this theft of our pension monies!

Most of them did. Steve Robbins and Ken Hauser for certain. You know Hauser, he now is retiree trustee. He is the kind of trustee that people like Bernie Madoff love. He had Vanecko and Allison Davis right in front of him and declared "Gee, that sounds like a good deal."
Same with Steve Robbins.
Robbins came to an FOP meeting after the story broke and defended the Vanecko deal as "good for the pension fund. Mark Donahue was right behind him. Silent.
