Detectives Made
One hundred detectives made last night.
That's the first class in what? Six years?
Congratulations to those who made it. It's been a long time coming and the D-unit could use the help.
Post it if you got it.
UPDATE: Second class in six years or so - we forgot the one they threw together last year.

Um, no. There was a class in April.
how does a guy locked up twice for animal abuse make dic?
They made a class just last April.
no.. they just made detectives about a year or year and a half ago.
who let the dogs out?
Congrats. I only hope the dets who handle police shootings passes that knowledge onto others.
Congrats to those who made it! I'm done trying to get promoted to anything on this job!
Congratulations.
Now start solving the murders in Chicago. A 25-33% clearance rate is abysmal.
Insider in the know says this will be the only class in 2015 and possibly the last one til next test. Feel bad for the guys who waited so long and will now be left out. Typical.
Very sad a department this size waited 6 years to make a class. Not to mention how long was it before this last test ? 10 or 11 years I believe
Sign up for St. Baldricks!
Congrats to those who made it. They had a class approximately two years ago.
Congrats to all the newly and much needed detectives!
Last dicks class was April 2014
On the 1st day of early voting!
Now i'm voting 4 u RAHM because you have given me a retro check and made more Detectives.
I feel safer already.
If only the FOP would endorse you and i would follow their mandate without question.
Please DR/President Deangelo guide me with your vast knowledge of politics.
Just before election, total BS. He knows all cops hate his ass & is looking for votes from you and your family.
Actually a class of 60 was made last April/May.
Nine years since that test was given, 9 fucking years that's pathetic.
Glad for those who made it off the list in rank order.
O/T. WTF is going on here in 011???!!! Just got to work and I hear:
EEOC beef dropped on both asshole LEMMER and MASTERS by a female sergeant. Rumor is she has a ton of shit on them especially Lt. Masters. Witnesses have come forward and also dropped paper and are lined up to give statements. Hey 35th St, are you listening??? These two mopes are becoming bigger liabilities with each passing day. Time to send them packing. More proof that common sense isnt a requirement when merit propels your entire career, ain't that right XO Buscemi and Lt 1982 hairdo???
Congratulations, JF. You'll be a great dick.
Counting the responses for the first "make more ETs" comment". The ETs brought it on themselves. Never have I seen such an assemblage of dogs and prima donnas in one unit. Granted, a lot of them have since gone, but you reap what you sow. Do more with less and handle the jobs. Better still, privatize like a lot of other depts. nationwide.
And how many more blue shirts hired?
Congratulations everyone and welcome to to the BEST position on the job. DaBadCop ;)
Congrats JK(C) !!
A whole bunch of new guys wearing sport coats with pants that d on t match. Badly needed though.
Congrats Paul H a decade to be promoted is way too long. Have no doubt you will be a good Detective! Just don't step in big pile of dog shit!
:) non hater non test taker (not enough time) but man, some are, well, i just hope they stay on their happy meds
What a shame it takes so long to be promoted after a test.
When I took the test for detective, I believe it was in the spring or early summer, we got our grades before leaving Wells H.S.
The list was posted in the newspaper and I was in detective's school in October and I was not even in the first class.
Congratulations to all promoted it's the best job on the Police Department, at least it used to be.
It's about time! Now put them in uniform in a marked car,q shows more police on the street and more accountability!
Off subject but very important. President Obama Signs the Multiemployer Pension Reform Act H R 83 of 2014. The law enables your pension officers to reduce or suspend your pension if they can show it is critically underfunded. WTF did anyone know about this. This could be Rahm's ace in the hole. Does anyone know about this? Is this still America?
No they made a small class about 2-3 yrs ago.
Congratulations to all of the newly minted dicks. If you worked hard and earned that spot legitimately then good for you. You earned it. If you got it via clout then shame on you.
Congrats to A.E, G.G., R.N., j.K., C.D., K.L., D.W. P.L., C.B., J. Y., F. L. and w.F. You'll all make fine initials.
12.24--hard to solve shootings with "we'll take care of it ourselves" and "nobody saw nothing"
Who cares who kilt Pookie? Let the dicks worry about who shot the father of six driving to his shit job at 0530
Nine years since that test was given, 9 fucking years that's pathetic.
can not promot anyone, if they do not hire anyone.
Nice that they finally made a class, to bad they will all be retiring soon, most have over 20 years.
And how many more blue shirts hired?

We're hearing all kinds of horror stories about how they are bouncing white applicants off the candidate list. There are stories about miscounting sit-ups and flat out lying about the run times. They won't count the sit-ups out loud but after the 2 min is up they will say "sorry, that was only (one less then passing) because the rest didn't count, you unlaced your fingers...."
One candidate was told he missed the run by 3 seconds. He had his own Fitbit stopwatch showing he made it by 25 seconds. The proctor said "MY stopwatch is the one that counts" and said "thanks for coming, better luck next time"
How did the ETs bring this bring this upon themselves. Do you even know any of the ETs, or are you just pissed because they would not do your job for you. Lets have the city privatize them and take away more spots.
S.H. (189)
Wtf......she's NEVER worked the street......EVER!!!!
OT:
Dear alderman burke
get off your eff-ing ass and try walking in your ward.
Try walking one block from your home under the Orange line tracks and towards Curie H.S YOU CAN'T!!
Try walking on the other side of the street south from the Orange line to Jewel foods pass the "Super Mercardo Giganta (the 5200 block S Pulaski) YOU CAN'T
YOU CAN'T BECAUSE YOUR GLORIOUS BUSINESS OWNERS HAVEN'T TOUCHED THE SIDEWALKS SINCE THE SNOW BEGAN TO FALL.
Get off your ass and park your motorcade and bring Rahm with you.
Walk the street a-holes.
I used this language as it's what the mayor is accustom to and if he can dish it out it shouldn't be offensive to you all and you certainly can take it.
After all it's your leader setting the "Broken Windows" like standard of what's acceptable behavior. A fine example FOR THE CHILDREN
Meanwhile, when is all this crap from peoples garages used as dib holders going to be hauled away.!?
We got buckets and lawn chairs and boards and various other items in the streets. It's a safety hazard.
Law to Let Multiemployer Pensions Cut Benefits Signed
Measure addresses withdrawal liability; clarifies ERISA Section 4062(e) rules
By Stephen Miller, CEBS 12/15/2014
Permissions
updated 12/18/2014
Severely distressed multiemployer pensions will be able to reduce benefits paid to retirees under an amendment to the Continuing Resolution/omnibus spending bill (dubbed "cromnibus") that was signed into law by President Barack Obama on Dec. 16, 2014. H.R. 83, the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act of 2015, had been approved by the U.S. Senate on Dec. 13, two days after House passage.
The pension measure included in the omnibus legislation, the Multiemployer Pension Reform Act of 2014, was negotiated by a bipartisan group of congressional leaders but opposed by some retiree advocates and their congressional allies. It is intended to let deeply underfunded multiemployer plans avoid bankruptcy and termination, and by doing so to keep solvent the multiemployer pension insurance fund overseen by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp. (PBGC), the federal pension insurance program.
The provisions apply only to multiemployer pensions and not to single-sponsor corporate pensions, which are subject to a different set of regulations and higher funding-level requirements. The PBGC maintains a separate insurance fund for single-sponsor pensions. Multiemployer, or "Taft-Hartley," pension plans commonly are administered by labor unions on behalf of their members and funded by multiple employers in a given industry, subject to collective bargaining contracts with the union.
As SHRM Online recently reported (see Multiemployer Pension Funding Crisis Looms), in November 2014 the PBGC issued a report indicating its multiemployer insurance program was almost certain to become insolvent in 10 years. Of the 1,400 multiemployer plans nationwide, 200 plans covering a total of 1 million participants are at risk of termination.
Cutback Provisions
The measure will allow trustees of financially troubled multiemployer pensions to cut retiree benefits to prevent plan insolvency. Financially troubled plans are those that are expected to not have enough money to pay 100 percent of benefits in 10 to 20 years. In some cases, the cuts could exceed 60 percent of a participant’s benefits.
Under the measure:
• Retirees who are age 80 or over, or are receiving a disability pension, are not subject to benefit cuts. Retirees ages 75-79 are subject to smaller cuts than retirees under age 75.
• Plan trustees have discretion in deciding how to allocate the cuts. For example, they can cut retirees’ benefits more than those of active workers, and decide whether to reduce survivors’ benefits.
• Plan trustees are exempt from fiduciary responsibility in making cuts.
• Trustees’ decisions to cut benefits can be reversed only by the Department of Treasury, and then only if the Treasury determines that the trustees’ decision to cut benefits or the extent of the benefit cuts is “clearly erroneous.”
• There is no provision for automatic restoration of lost benefits if a plan’s funding status improves.
• Plans with 10,000 or more participants must allow all participants to vote on cuts before they are implemented. A majority of all workers and retirees in a plan—not just a majority of the ones who vote—is required to block cuts. Ballots can be distributed by e-mail.
• Even if a majority of participants vote against cuts, the Treasury Department can override the vote and uphold the trustees’ decision to make cuts, if it concludes that a plan poses a “systemic” risk to the PBGC.
• The insurance premiums that multiemployer plans pay to the PBGC are increased from $13 to $26 per participant per year. (In contrast, premiums paid to the single-employer plan program are between $57 and $475 per participant per year.)

Our pension is not a multiemployer pension fund so the act does not apply to us

70 made Dec 2012
40 made Apr 2014
Cograts, time for a new test and younger blood. This list went well over 400, even with the five year gap between Nov 2007 and Dec 2012 of none being made.
Insider in the know says this will be the only class in 2015 and possibly the last one til next test. Feel bad for the guys who waited so long and will now be left out. Typical.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
If history is an indicator you are dead wrong. A test hasn't even been announced yet. Every test and every promotion always has a class after the test has been given before the results show up. This test will be no different. No test even in the works yet so no way they can hold off for another 2+ years without hiring. A ton of dics from the 85,86, and 87 mass hiring classes will be retiring this year. Nice try. Don't have sour grapes because you're too far on the list to make it. Try try again
Let me guess they all want to work HOMICIDES.
Welcome to the special victims Unit!
You will be treated like a step child with polio!
clout always win
Get out and VOTE EARLY!
Over 11 years on and I have never had the opportunity to take a detective test. This department is unreal. All the best to the newly made class. You've waited way too long.
I've been on almost 13 years and still haven't been able to take a det test. Wtf. Absolutely ridiculous. Came on the job with the promise of promotion opportunities, but have only been able to take one single Sgt test. That's it.
Congratulations to all you Fools who made Detective. It is the best job on the Dept.
Love,
MR.T
Congrats to R. Martinez from 017. Great cop!!!! Will make an outstanding Detective.
Any names or are they double secret promotees?

Who has list?
They made a class exactly 2 years ago.
I believe the multiemployer pension
has nothing to do with municipal employees it's more suited for truckers/teamster union. It's still bullshit.
New detectives will be cross trained to process crime scenes.
100 new dicks , assigned to three areas will be more than enough to replace crime lab et's .
Congradulations to J.S. Brother you are a class act and a hell of a copper. Glad you're finally out of the Westside.
Part II of this dicks test was administered in March of 2005. List became active in August 2005. 10 years ago! Wow...
Congrats to all the guys from 009 who made it. TC and JD especially you guys.
Who's the merit slugs?
I was hired in 2003 and unable to take the Detective exam. Half my career is over and I never got a chance to work as a detective. Good chance that I never will. This department blows.
Now start solving the murders in Chicago. A 25-33% clearance rate is abysmal.
2/10/2015 12:24:00 AM
A comment from someone who does not have a clue on what detectives have to face to solve crimes today. Thanks to numerous law suits their hands are tied. And, as I understand, the clearance rate is no better in other major cities.
TT from 12? A merit pick for sure and wasn't she dumped from FBI Task Force for running plates illegally???????? What a job.
Best job in the dept! Lolol. You're crazy if you believe that. Most responsibility in this god forsaken dept. Liberal lawmakers making this job next to impossible. Try to get into homicide if you can. 10 to maybe 12 cases a year per dic and that may be stretching it. RBT? 200 to 300 a year per dic at least in a busy district with tons of arrests/processings. Welcome to a demotion with a raise. Only perks! No radio and lunch wherever you want.
Alas I may retire with the comfort of knowing 100 men and women will be solving all the crimes I couldn't. My class of 86 homeroom alone had 50 detectives.
There's too much misinformation on this thread.
There's been two classes made since December 2012. One was about 75 and the other about 40-50.
The test was given in December of 2004 making the list slightly over 10 years old and the lowest seniority anywhere in the detective division is 13 years.
That being said, congratulations to all of you that had 3 bars on your sleeve in patrol and thought you were hot shit. You're now back in the bottom 4th in seniority.
Welcome to long hours, tons of overtime, constant court, no sleep, typing until your eyes bleed and your fingers go numb, and a family that doesn't know who you are anymore. Congratulations! Best job in the department my ass.
The Marine unit lost one of its best guys.... Congrats Tom
how does a guy locked up twice for animal abuse make dic?
2/10/2015 12:08:00 AM
Because the Mayor says so. You gotta problem with that?
Congratulations to the new Detectives, and too the troll wishing the city would privatize testable title code positions, crawl back under the rock you came from. Comments like yours are why we will never have any leverage over the city, because if YOU can't have something or have never be promoted, no one else should either. I'm sure your a real treat to work with.

Fuck you. Maybe some of those merit guys did EARN it but did poorly on the test. Coppers due deserve to be patted on the back and given something once in awhile. I'm not talking about getting the spot by who your daddy / mommy is, but actually working hard for it.
-NOT a merit Det.
Tell me if this sounds reasonable:
I have been rattling my brains trying to come up with a logical reason why Superintendent McCarthy was brought in to Chicago. He was soundly dismissed in his last try because of his personality and spouted of like a child when he wasn't considered.
Years later, he is put in as Superintendent and acts like the megalomaniac he truly is. He keeps spouting off about fundamentally changing the Department and has made some very bizarre decisions, takes no input from his Chiefs and keeps the Department in the dark as to what he is trying to do with the Department organization.
McCarthy harps on the murder rate like it is the only thing that matters. In his world it is the only thing.
I submit the McCarthy is the smokescreen that will hide the glaring fact that concealed carry will reduce the crime rate in Chicago. McCarthy has declared, to anyone that will listen, that COMPSTAT has reduced homicides and crime in Chicago when any copper knows they were heading that way anyway. I believe any competent supervisor around when McCarthy was hired would have ushered in a better reduction in crime and officers would be more engaged and more satisfied. Happy employees are productive employees.
Chicago's reduction in crime will be heralded as a COMPSTAT success when the real reason will be concealed carry. Slick move by the progressives that didn't want you to have guns.
Look over here!!! Quiet a magic act.

***************
And if you did get it meritorious but are a hard worker and knowledgeable copper then what? Love all the merit haters. Im still a blue shirt but I know many dics, sgts etc who made it merit who are phenomenal guys, supervisors and detectives. Obviously, then you have the merit HACKS, which is a whole other catagory in itself. Not all merit picks are bad. Ive found that its so unpopular because somebody else made it and they didnt. Listen, if you did terrible on the test and you DONT work and NEVER have worked then sorry, you dont deserve merit. Unfortunatly, the merit process is supposed to be to award hard workers who didnt do good. But this is the chicago police department. Where merit is used to get in that secretary, or the aldermans guy etc. Not all are merit hacks by any means but yes I will never deny that the merit hacks dont exist.. we all know they are plentiful.. even a few on this list I can see. But if you did bad on the test, are a worker and good guy and would be a good detective or supervisor then good for you. Those are the people we want for merit. Do we really want all 25 percent of the merit picks to be hacks??? No, if we can squeeze a few good one in there then thats fine with me. Too many people out there hating the players instead of the game.
Michael Jackson said. Tee Hee hee!
At 8:07AM, are we to assume when you have been offered things you didn't deserve or earn you have declined accepting them?
CONGRATULATION to D.M. in 011.
24 years in this shit district. Always a worker. Never a dog ass.
Even today, knowing he'd been promoted, was out there, getting it done.
You're very deserving.
Congrats R.K. and P.H. from 009! Both hard working street cops for many years. Both will make great Detectives!
Holy Christ! Yeah they made a class last year, big deal the blog missed that on first time around. That being said this list is about 10 fucking years old. That is absurd in any profession. For those saying "too bad" for those that are still waiting, get over it. That list should have been replaced 5-6 years ago at the most, but they drag this all out. 10 damn years. Great for those that made it, can't take anything away, but this needs to move on and people need some fresh opportunities for some kind of movement or advancement.
Hey SCC - A bit off-topic here:
Just saw a factoid on PBS NewsHour which claimed "Over half of all police departments in the U.S. contain less than 10 sworn officers". That smells like b.s. to me.
Can anyone explain the difference between a "sworn officer" and the rest of the department ?
(I know nobody can explain the difference between journalism and PBS)
Lts & Sgts to be made soon. Sgts possibly off of old list.
Congrats to all the New Det s!!! And welcome to one of the best jobs on the Dept!!! And the rest of you, study for the Det s exam, Trust me!!!
Retired, and wish all of you the best. Stay true to your passion. Regardless of the. CITY trying to shit on all of you, we still try and do what we signed up for. My day would end well when I did a good job for the day. Regardless of the bureaucrats. Partner's matter and are premium when you find them. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers. Stay safe and go home every day.
Mertz. 86-4b
Don't park in the academy lot. They made us move our cars because we were not staff. It was a pain in the ass to try and find a parking spot down there in the middle of the day.
You notice that there are units that never get a merit pick in that unit. I know it is nice in these units, but you can not tell me that there is not one person that would want a promotion. People at HDQTS get picked all the time.
There was also a class of 70 detectives in February 2013. At the time, was the first class in 5 years.
It is obvious that the Supt. does not care for certain Commanders, never picking there merit picks. Couple new Detectives on the list are going to decline the promotion. The female from unit 050 will decline it again, and rumor is that someone on that list is retiring next week.
Undoubtedly, the BEST job on the Chicago Police Dept.

Shame on 20% , list the Merit Names so we know what to do to be made meritorious .
Rahm said he put all the police that were doing office work back on the street .
Bob , Willie , Chuy, request the names of every officer on second watch not assigned to a beat car . You will find commander secretaries, tactical unit secretaries , officers hiding in caps office , officers acting as crossing guard supervisor , what a joke .
Ballerina repeated red line minority hiring , now over , full time kindergarten (babysitters) willie wants 4 superintendents , fine but then reduce alder creatures to 4 .
Last years class was 40, a class of Sgts was made while the 40 Dets were in school still. The Det Div lost over 25 Dets to Sgt promotion including a couple of people who were in Det school who made Sgt before they finished Det school; making the last class of Dets equal about 10 and I think that it was actually lower than that.

We're hearing all kinds of horror stories about how they are bouncing white applicants off the candidate list. There are stories about miscounting sit-ups and flat out lying about the run times. They won't count the sit-ups out loud but after the 2 min is up they will say "sorry, that was only (one less then passing) because the rest didn't count, you unlaced your fingers...."
One candidate was told he missed the run by 3 seconds. He had his own Fitbit stopwatch showing he made it by 25 seconds. The proctor said "MY stopwatch is the one that counts" and said "thanks for coming, better luck next time"
2/10/2015 09:05:00 AM
Nothing new there. Same crap was going on 15 years ago when I came on the job. Totally unfair testing process that's manipulated to hire whatever demographic they currently need.

There should not even be merit for dicks. I can understand sgt. but not detectives. Congrats to all the new dicks either way.

I was a Detective before being promoted to Sgt. and I can tell you, some of the sharpest Detectives I worked with were merit, not test. I was test and waited years to be promoted. Just because you are a good test taker does not make you a good Detective.
Counting the responses for the first "make more ETs" comment". The ETs brought it on themselves. Never have I seen such an assemblage of dogs and prima donnas in one unit. Granted, a lot of them have since gone, but you reap what you sow. Do more with less and handle the jobs. Better still, privatize like a lot of other depts. nationwide.
2/10/2015 06:42:00 AM
Privatizing saves no money. Taxpayers still pay for the services. It's a fallacy that privatization is the answer. Just look at all the money private prisons, parking meters and DOA removal services make, just to name a few. City and State still pay for the services, and enforcement etc but can't employ anyone. Raw deal.
So what number did they get to on the list?
Congrats to all I'm glad someone got promoted

Off subject but very important. President Obama Signs the Multiemployer Pension Reform Act H R 83 of 2014. The law enables your pension officers to reduce or suspend your pension if they can show it is critically underfunded. WTF did anyone know about this. This could be Rahm's ace in the hole. Does anyone know about this? Is this still America?

It refers to "Multiempoyler"
Multiemployer, or "Taft-Hartley," pension plans commonly are administered by labor unions on behalf of their members and funded by multiple employers in a given industry, subject to collective bargaining contracts with the union. - See more at: http://www.shrm.org/hrdisciplines/benefits/articles/pages/multiemployer-pension-payouts.aspx#sthash.8hLaGeA8.dpuf

Refers to private not public:
The MPRA also provides additional authority to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC), the government insurer of private defined benefit pension plans, to take certain actions to assist critical status multiemployer pension plans.
Of the 100 on the list 60 are from districts (one's detailed out) and the remaining 40 are from units.

Mayberry RFD is not that far off the mark.
There are many very small rural village, town and county sheriff departments where there is only one full time law enforcement officer with maybe a few part time deputies. I used to travel cross country on my motorcycle and in such place the police station is a door on the side of the town hall and nobody’s there. In the pre-cell phone days there would be a list of local phone numbers to call if you needed help. There may be two state cops in a big county they can call for help, one working days and one nights.
A "sworn officer" is trained and sworn to an oath of office to uphold the law and has the powers of arrest versus an employee or volunteer who might handle phones, radio or paperwork.
Stay Safe. Never put down the backwoods or backwater cops because people can get just as stupid and hit just as hard as they do here and their backup may be a long way off.
First of all congrats to all the people that made it.
But, why is the guy who almost died after being shot a couple of years ago not on the list??
I am not sure of his name but McGoofy was all over the news with him and his family when it happened!!!

Congratulations to all of the newly minted dicks. If you worked hard and earned that spot legitimately then good for you. You earned it. If you got it via clout then shame on you.

And if you did get it meritorious but are a hard worker and knowledgeable copper then what? Love all the merit haters. Im still a blue shirt but I know many dics, sgts etc who made it merit who are phenomenal guys, supervisors and detectives. Obviously, then you have the merit HACKS, which is a whole other catagory in itself. Not all merit picks are bad. Ive found that its so unpopular because somebody else made it and they didnt. Listen, if you did terrible on the test and you DONT work and NEVER have worked then sorry, you dont deserve merit. Unfortunatly, the merit process is supposed to be to award hard workers who didnt do good. But this is the chicago police department. Where merit is used to get in that secretary, or the aldermans guy etc. Not all are merit hacks by any means but yes I will never deny that the merit hacks dont exist.. we all know they are plentiful.. even a few on this list I can see. But if you did bad on the test, are a worker and good guy and would be a good detective or supervisor then good for you. Those are the people we want for merit. Do we really want all 25 percent of the merit picks to be hacks??? No, if we can squeeze a few good one in there then thats fine with me. Too many people out there hating the players instead of the game.

Retiring in Sept, 29 and day, 9161, took sergeants and dics test, few times, was not expecting anything no clout, never got the promotion. When you join CPD especially you younger coppers,with big college degrees, expect to be 9161 forever, if you get promoted great,if you don't still not a bad job! Tired of listening to the younger coppers bitching "I did not get promoted" "This job is unfair" life is unfair get over it! If you have opportunity to get some clout your chances are 110% better, this is the way it is, has been,and always will be!

That officer didn't take the detectives test. the only way to get promoted by merit is to have taken the test. I'm hoping he took the last sergeants test which would make him eligible for a merit promotion. I hope he is doing a lot better health wise. Prayers for him and his family.

Here's my suggestion to new Dets:
1. Take the first 20hrs on the books no matter what!
2. Make a lot of $$$ each period (60-80 hrs)
3. Start a Roth IRA
4. Start a Fidelity account
5. Remember to take a day off once in awhile ( if you're not a jagoff you will get taken care of) and hang wit the people that love you
6. Don't let this job run your life, make it work for you
7. Don't forget about steps 1,3, and 4.

See, you're wrong about this. Dog asses don't want to be detectives.. They want to be sgts. Detectives have a lot of work to do and a ton of court. It's my experience that the majority of merit dics have usually been hard workers and have turned out to be great detectives. Merit dics and merit supervisors is a whole different game.

Here's the problem, the proctor counts in his head not out loud. After the 2 minutes he spits out a number and that's it. If he at least counted out loud you would know that it wasn't counted and you might "adjust" your fingers or go further back but to not tell you so you can adjust is wrong. The same with the magic stopwatch. How can it be that far off from your personal stopwatch. A few seconds maybe I can see. A half a minute. I don't think so.
11FEB15 12:32 am U R Right On!
I took an annual power test and passed everything but the proctor said i failed the run! I was like, No and he said my clock showed you did not pass! Goodbye! Nothing to do but walk away disgruntled. Next time, the friend will be videotaping from across the street!
Keep faith and God speed

There are a lot of worthy meritorious Officers out there. Officers that have maybe done that one thing, or maybe has been a hard worker their whole career and they re a shitty test taker. There are many reasons. Yes, there are merit hacks, What about the officer shot or seriously injured in the line of duty? What about the officers that came up with the info who helped catch a Cop killer? There are many reasons.

I read this and had to respond....Del Pearson is the man I believe you are referring to. He did not have the time to take the last Detective Test or Sergeant Test. He did take this last Sergeant test but for some reason the Department made 149 Sergeant's off the "old list" which he is not on. Somehow some other people were far more "meritoriously deserving." Why promote 149 people off a test or list that is almost 10 years old when the new test results were about to be released? Clout of course is the answer, not merit. Yeah the department really takes care of you.
I think that SCC was right in stating first class in 6 years. The last class in April 2014 can out at a -7 total when you counted the number of 40 in that class. The two Sgt. classes that were in the academy at the same time the Det class was there totaled 47 Detectives who made Sgt. Even before they hit the streets, they were down Sgt.

I was promoted on Merit and I will forever be proud of that fact. I have worked very hard for a very long time and was recognized for my effort. Those who know me would never depute that fact. It was not luck or clout that got me promoted but hard work and allot of it. I will however give the most credit for my promotion to those who also deserve the same, the Partners I have worked with. I have worked along side the best Police officers in the world. My last partner I was lucky enough to work with for 13 years. I'm sure I will miss the running and gunning but its time to move on to the next and last chapter of my career. To the Great Police officers I have had the privilege to work with I just wanted to say, thank you and Stay Safe.

Hmmm... let me break it down for you in simple mathematical terms. I was in the class that entered the academy in December of 2012. It is now 2015. 2015-2012= WAIT FOR IT.... 3. There has been another class since mine. So that's 2 classes within the last 3 years and this current one will make the third. So you can think SCC is right but he wasn't. SCC is right about a lot of things and I love his blog, but he made a small mistake about the time frame which may even have been a typo. Judging by your writing skills though, I can understand how you failed 1st grade math.

Why call this guy a dumbass, that was probably written by some kid and may not even have a driver license yet and been outside of Cook County much.
The reasonable reply: There are about 40,000 law enforcement agencies in the United States. The largest municipal department is the New York City with about 40,000 sworn officers for a population of almost eight million.
There are also many towns and villages with populations of 500, 1,000, or 10,000 who have a police department that may only have ten full-time officers or less. Be careful driving through small towns, some of those towns support themselves by speed traps.
Want to check on SPEED TRAPS:
http://www.speedtrap.org/speedtraps/stetlist.asp
Also a sworn officer has taken an oath and has certified police powers such as arrest. Other employees may be non-sworn clerks, dispatchers and lock-up keepers.
JOURNALISM is the documentation, reporting and publishing of news and human interest stories to the public by whatever means used, newspapers, magazines, TV or radio.
PBS is PUBLIC BROADCASTIN SYSTEM is television and radio programing that is supported by viewers and philanthropic organizations.

Pretty crappy answer to a reasonable question. Police Officers are those that have taken an oath and are sworn to uphold the laws of their jurisdiction, simple answer. Everyone else in a police department are non-sworn employees. They don't carry guns and have no more arrest powers than citizens. They may have authority to issue tickets, such as parking enforcement, but not arrest powers. There are many small communities that have only one or two sworn officers and rely on the county sheriff for the bulk of their support. I'm not surprised by the number given.

I was promoted on Merit and I will forever be proud of that fact. I have worked very hard for a very long time and was recognized for my effort. Those who know me would never depute that fact. It was not luck or clout that got me promoted but hard work and allot of it. I will however give the most credit for my promotion to those who also deserve the same, the Partners I have worked with. I have worked along side the best Police officers in the world. My last partner I was lucky enough to work with for 13 years. I'm sure I will miss the running and gunning but its time to move on to the next and last chapter of my career. To the Great Police officers I have had the privilege to work with I just wanted to say, thank you and Stay Safe.

Congrats! You'll enjoy the change, best job on Dept.
We were waiting for some real moron to comment on CB. She was 22 out, asswipe. Someone with real balls would tell her to her face the way they felt instead of putting it on here. Go back to your mommy's basement, jerk. Only real cops here.
Really, right, tell her to her face. People have and she called her daddy. Her daddy has destroyed many careers. Who cares if she made it off the list, she is the spawn of the devil.

Good Luck finding any dick wearing a sport coat nowadays, you will see alot of ill fitting Solid color shirts and ties you'd pick up on Maxwell st. Look like a bunch of Payless shoe salesmen.
Don't even get me started on the Women in the D-Unit Ugh

Would anyone mind if I wore my powder blue leisure suit with white patent leather belt? From Sears. Now that thing is old; Sonny Crockett would turn up his nose at that. It is so old it might be in again.

Nope, going real old school-Sherlock Holmes hat and magnifying glass. I may compliment it with the wrinkled Columbo rain coat. Man, I'm going to be so bad ass, strutting the halls of 26/Cal. Winking at the sexy female ASAs, bragging about cases I wasn't really involved in. Going to trade in my mini-van for a 2003 BMW. Watch out, I'm so pimp.
That's just old ridiculous...
No merit???
What are you willing to give up for that?
Seniority?
watch bids?
MERIT belongs to management so forget about who gets it and focus and pulling in some clout.
I know its not fair welcome to Chicago!
It looks like 13% turned down the bump to D-2A. You have to respect the folks that turned it down to let another copper get promoted.
74 Sgts off the old list going in March after Detectives
Its nice to have a phone call
Great. The dumbest guy on the watch makes Dick.And on top of that he's rude towards coworkers and bosses and citizens. And the icing on the cake is he's a complete do nothing dog and a career long medical abuser. Good luck to whatever area and boss gets stuck with G I Slow.
There are a few towns with in 100 miles of Chicago that only have a chief. Can you imagine a department without range assholes.
CB 191: You mean the crack investigator who had the cougar case for years that a couple rookie FBI Agents solved in a couple months??

CB is top shelf copper and person. I had many years otj before pulling the pin and know CB carried her weight and then some and more. A worker and a good hearted person.
So knock the shit off about her, go mess with the hack bosses all over CPD.
3:11,
Don't concern yourself. I was,referring to JF from near north. Now who is gonna buy my Pequods?
Big changes coming Friday . 114 people will be promoted from the 1994 sergeants exam ., you heard it here first. Now let me get an event # and a narcotics dispersal .
"...and for you who worked your balls off for years and received a merit promotion, congratulations to you as well..."
And to those of you who hid in kiss-ass jobs and only got the merit promotion because you dropped a knee in front of a boss---Kiss my ass.
"...I'm one of those merit hacks...enjoy your beat car..."
Please refer to my previous post.
It's too bad the brightenst, the best, and the ones who work hard to achieve a goal are ignored.

"...I was in the class that entered the academy in December of 2012...:"
Still a rookie.
