Big Changes Friday!

Wait....it was Monday? What the hell? This throws off all of our timing....can someone at 35th Street turn back the calendar. Please? This is not acceptable:
  • Chicago Police Superintendent Garry F. McCarthy today announced the retirement of his trusted second-in-command, First Deputy Police Superintendent Alfonza Wysinger, as well as the Chief of the Bureau of Internal Affairs, Juan Rivera, who served with distinction for nearly 30 years.

    In a series of corresponding moves, McCarthy announced the promotion of three talented, and widely respected, veteran commanding officers to new leadership positions within the Department. The appointments are effective October 15, 2015.

And who are these "widely respected" members of the Department?
  • John Escalante as First Deputy Superintendent
  • Eddie Welch III as Chief of IAD
  • Constantine Andrews as Chief of Detectives
  • Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy has a new chief of detectives — a veteran cop under investigation for his role in creating a fictitious witness statement that helped prevent former Mayor Richard M. Daley’s nephew from being charged with killing David Koschman.

    Constantine G. “Dean” Andrews was deputy chief of detectives in 2011 when he was placed in charge of reinvestigating the Koschman case and closed it without charges, concluding that Daley nephew Richard J. “R.J.” Vanecko had punched Koschman in self-defense.

    Cook County Judge Michael P. Toomin later ruled that police and prosecutors “conjured up” the self-defense conclusion. Toomin appointed a special prosecutor, Dan K. Webb, who led an investigation that resulted in Vanecko pleading guilty to involuntary manslaughter in January 2014.
The Special Prosecutor almost had Andrews and five other charged with obstruction, but in true Chicago fashion, decided if he couldn't win, he wouldn't pursue the case.

Expect more.

That's it. It's over. McCarthy is showing his wrinkled tush to the city.

If Andrews doesn't work out perhaps Streelight McCarthy can hire this guy as a civilian. For those of you unfamiliar with the name just utilize the google. Former Chief of Detectives who retired and went to the federal pokie years later after a mobbed up jewel robbery.

What I find completely unacceptable is the people being pushed through the ranks based on the work of others and lies. Capt. O, you are a piece of ***T. Not only did 3 complete teams refuse to work with this tool, countless numbers of police have come and go through this revolving door. The Superintendent and Chief T need to take another look. Not only has he been lying to you about the success of this BS and what we have been doing every day, he has been lying about one boss in particular in his own personal vendetta to get him moved in hopes of getting his boy put in his place and the tools that have no clue at what we should be doing are eating this BS up! I told you yesterday that this was complete BS. Right is right and what you and Lt. K are doing is fucked up. 3 months and I am out. Nothing you can do but KMA.

Did anyone take the time to ask why the First Deputy just up and quit? What power did he have? Chief Tracey, Roussell and the Superintendent runs the whole police department. If you have an opinion or do not agree with these BS strategies, you are a target. Watch and see the moves Superintendent McCarthy are about to make on 1 black boss in particular. Kill the competition and anyone, especially a black who has any potential. Watch out, they are coming.

How do you promote a Chief that is under investigation as Chief of Detectives. This place is a fucking joke. Where did you get this superintendent from. This rules out all doubt that this is the absolute worse CPD regimen in its history. Superintendent Gary McCarthy, Chief Bob Tracey and Chief Russell who use to be the police, you are a bunch of idiots. Take your incompetent Captain O'Shea and Commander West with you when the door finally slams shut. Wake me up when these fools are gone.

So a criminal is promoted to Chief of Detectives. Riccio who helped to create the new death investigation classification is promoted to Chief to hide the homicides and later reclassify them after that comparison year is complete. Escalante who was the Chief and signed off on this new classification for homicides is now promoted to First Deputy. Inspector General, somebody, look into this will you!

He went to 009 as a impact sgt stirred shit up and spars ppo's and po for not moving a bike from a crime scene and everything else cause he ain't getting his way. Trying to get impact ppo's fired by calling and crying to Commander Melar and Paneopinto about they not come in on time they coming in with no activity. Gets into it with other fellow sgts because he can't get his way and no body gives him respect. He gets fellow sgts in trouble about a school incidents and go crying to Commander Godsel about his reputation is being jeopardized by the other sgt cause all he's trying to do is his job. He has cried some much that he's going back to OCD. He need to grow some balls and man up. When you do wrong it's get covered up and you moved. He'll fuck up in OCD just like these other bosses they handing out spots to like candy. Sherm germ your fellow sgts are glad to see your crying and complaining ass go.

WoW....! The department will have absolutely no credibility from this point forward. The assimilation is now complete. Stooges from top to bottom in the upper command structure.
Worked in an Andrews command in the early 2000's. He really brought in some ass smooching boobs to do his work for him. Then treated the rest of his "Non Annointed" staff like second rate garbage. The Koschman case really taints him.

Escalante was a good person in the lower ranks. But he always "knew" where he was going. The Koschman case taints him...

Anybody who works for these fools, gets what they have coming. I remember Wysinger supposedly being prepped for Supt. "Be nice to people on the way up, cuz they are the same people you will meet on the way down.

I'm sure the next round of f@&kery has already begun, and only needs to be discovered. These A-Holes have already slow danced with the mayors office. I look forward to their demise...

Hello: Hope you are well.Appreciate the work you put in to your great blog.

Off Topic Post:

You've talked about distribution of Police manpower, and I'd like to mention the huge amount of police currently working North Michigan Ave.

From Oak Street down to the river, almost every intersection has a group of three officers on both sides of the street.

At first, I thought they were getting ready to close the street, but after asking, the cops said it's a normal patrol. We agreed how lucky they were to draw a Michigan Ave. Posting. Could be upwards of 40 cops on the street.

After the river, it's a free for all, with CD sellers lining up on both sides of the sidewalk, like a gauntlet.

Anyway... great blog.

Add to this one of these new promotions has had more than one sexual harassment beef; and then there are some real questions as to "WHY" the Head of IAD and First Deputy leave within 24 hrs. of each other. Is there a scandal about to unravel? Does it have to do with a botched up suicide investigation? Meanwhile, McCarthy's reign of stupidity is on life support. A vote of no confidence is one thing, but when so many command staff leave in your tenure; perhaps that is another way of saying you're an idiot, and I will not work for you. Meanwhile, the Black Caucus is asking a question that everyone else in this City should be asking: "What is your strategy and why is it not working?" Tens of millions of dollars in over-time and a homicide rate exceeding New York and Los Angeles; WHY? "Baby G"

This does not sound good. If there was one guy who could out-goof McCarthy it would be Charlie Williams. An arrogant, ignorant racist ass with scores to settle and would swing that hatchet against everyone. At least everyone white.

Put the stories together from today’s Sun-Times online, what did Rahm feed them.

>>>McCarthy promotes cop under investigation in Daley nephew case

>>>Cop watchdog defends proposed suspensions for verbal, physical abuse

>>>City Council Black Caucus: Fire top cop McCarthy

From SCC: 200 One Day Suspensions >>>
This sounds like an effort worthy of Charlie Williams, a man who has stated that he wants to fire as many officers as he can on Rule 14 violations that were sustained during a very questionable period at IAD, and who is supposedly making noises about coming back to CPD.

Rahm is a narcissistic politician and McCarthy is expendable. McCarthy's primary objective was to cut costs by any means the department and the public be damned. The non-violent crimes could be hidden by under-reporting but most murders could not. So when the Black Caucus wants a Black Superintendent and murders, most are black on black are out of control, give them a Black Superintendent. But a Black Superintendent won’t mean shit on the streets to the gang bangers slinging dope or taunting cops hoping to cash the ghetto lottery ticket.

Charlie Williams will promise Rahm to out hatchet McCarthy. He will take over a department that has been decimated and demoralized and stomp it into the ground. Murders and violent crimes will go through the roof and he will tell everyone crime is down.

Stay Safe. God help us if this happens.

Nope. This was handled years & years ago by other dicks from Area 3. It was handed off to Area 5 dicks. Nobody gave a rat's ass about Koschman. Nobody. This was a one punch fight between two drunken assholes. I have seen 10 of these mutual combatant fights and no one was EVER charged by the ASA in any of these cases. This was no different. Area 3 came to this conclusion along with the ASA at the time it happened. Years later the Sun Times dragged it out again. It was reinvestigated and it was still a fight between two drunks. Same result. Read the file. After the two were separated after an initial scuffle Koschman broke free from his friends and charged Vanecko. Vanecko punched him once. That's it. I despise Daley & his family, too. But, don't believe the media hype. The dicks who got handed this case in round 2 wanted nothing to do with it. It was handled as a drink fight because that's all it was and is.

How proud can you be part time six figure part time municipal employees. I have been in your ward offices and noticed a great deal of your entitled to stuff promoting LINK, Section 8, S.S.I. benefits, free healthcare and you get the picture. Aldermcreatures, you should be ashamed of yourselves and the party of the working man for not attracting jobs getting the youth off the streets into Joe Biden's and B.H.O.'s 21st Century jobs. If the youth were working they would not have as much idle time to kill and maim each other in your third world resembling bombed out wards you purport to represent. You gauge your success on how many people you can hook with enslaving government entitlements. The public schools are an abject failure and all the schools represent to you are jobs you can influence and acquire for your coalition and contracts which you can steer. The youth don't stand a fighting chance and will never have been given those 21st Century tools to advance themselves and to be economically independent. The lack of an adequate public education and the non existent jobs should be your priority instead of putting your "guy" or "gal" in a higher pay grade thus giving you lots of power for you via your appointed "guys".

A little bird who works in a certain ward on the south side whispered that AL likes to keep certain Aldermans in the loop.

When info only Al and the SUPE became known to the powers that be Garry knew he had what we call a spy!.

So what do you do when your main man gets taken out?

You cry to RAHM about how crime is bad and you feel for the voters. Yet nobody has a name they want as the NEW SUPE?

Rahm hates spies and leakers with a passion.

He gets fellow sgts in trouble about a school incidents and go crying to Commander Godsel about his reputation is being jeopardized by the other sgt cause all he's trying to do is his job. He has cried some much that he's going back to OCD. He need to grow some balls and man up. When you do wrong it's get covered up and you moved. He'll fuck up in OCD just like these other bosses they handing out spots to like candy. Sherm germ your fellow sgts are glad to see your crying and complaining ass go."

BIKE ON CRIME SCENE COMMENT
Really, would you let a PPO on a crime scene tell you "I don't have to listen to that fucking guy he's not my fucking Sergeant." Fellow P.O.'s brought it to the Sergeants attention, who didn't initially hear it, and backed it up on paper. If you were a supervisor would you let a PPO talk to you like that! Also that particular PPO had already been written up several times previously. If you don't like that Sergeant that's cool but at least get this specific fact correct before you post.

Not only has he been lying to you about the success of this BS and what we have been doing every day, he has been lying about one boss in particular in his own personal vendetta to get him moved in hopes of getting his boy put in his place and the tools that have no clue at what we should be doing are eating this BS up!

Off Topic: Feds about to Release 6,500 Drug Related Prisoners
(Will Rahm Welcome them to Chicago as a Sanctuary City.)

From Police Mgazine On-line

"... October 06, 2015
The Justice Department is set to release about 6,000 inmates early from prison — the largest one-time release of federal prisoners — in an effort to reduce overcrowding and provide relief to drug offenders who received harsh sentences over the past three decades.

The inmates from federal prisons nationwide will be set free by the department’s Bureau of Prisons between Oct. 30 and Nov. 2. Most of them will go to halfway houses and home confinement before being put on supervised release, the Washington Post reports.

The early release follows action by the U.S. Sentencing Commission — an independent agency that sets sentencing policies for federal crimes — which reduced the potential punishment for future drug offenders last year and then made that change retroactive.

The panel estimated that its change in sentencing guidelines eventually could result in 46,000 of the nation’s approximately 100,000 drug offenders in federal prison qualifying for early release. The 6,000 figure, which has not been reported previously, is the first tranche in that process.

The Sentencing Commission estimated that an additional 8,550 inmates would be eligible for release between this Nov. 1 and Nov. 1, 2016. "

Stand by for more burglaries, thefts and robberies. Vote fraud, not in Chicago.

Who is Deans clout you ask? Let me tell you a story and maybe this will help you understand. Years ago my Sgt. in 018 fucked up and was "dumped" to 001. He hated it and wanted back in 018. But no matter what he did, no matter who he called he couldn't get back. But one day, presto, there he was, back in 018. I asked him how he got back and he told me that his "juice" set up a meeting with the Superintendent which went like this. The Sgt. and his juice went to the Superintendents office and were ushered in. The Superintendent sat at his desk, my Sgt. sat in front of him facing him and his "juice sat behind him. The Superintendent asked a few questions and then my Sgt. AND his juice made a case as to why he should be sent back to 018. Shortly thereafter my Sgt. returned to 018. I asked him who the mystery "juice was but he would not tell me. Years later he told me the story forgetting that he had told me the story before only this time he slipped up and identified who his "juice" was. It was Deans father who owned a very nice restaurant at Ontario and Rush. Deans dad was very active in the Greek community and my Sgt., bring Greek himself, sought his help and received it. Dean was not on the job when all this happened but joined later and mysteriously rose up the ranks himself. Deans family is comprised of very nice people who like the police and treated us well when we went to their restaurant. But his dad had the connections to get an audience for himself and a Sgt. who needed a favor so that should tell you something about how he has gone as far as he has.

Nope. This was handled years & years ago by other dicks from Area 3. It was handed off to Area 5 dicks. Nobody gave a rat's ass about Koschman. Nobody. This was a one punch fight between two drunken assholes. I have seen 10 of these mutual combatant fights and no one was EVER charged by the ASA in any of these cases. This was no different. Area 3 came to this conclusion along with the ASA at the time it happened. Years later the Sun Times dragged it out again. It was reinvestigated and it was still a fight between two drunks. Same result. Read the file. After the two were separated after an initial scuffle Koschman broke free from his friends and charged Vanecko. Vanecko punched him once. That's it. I despise Daley & his family, too. But, don't believe the media hype. The dicks who got handed this case in round 2 wanted nothing to do with it. It was handled as a drink fight because that's all it was and is.

No, we're not living ion a cave. Most people would have identified the misconduct you allude to as "the Vanecko, or Koschmann incident" You didn't have the sack to so and you simply refer to the incident as "the A/3...". Thanks anyway. We were hoping for something we don't already know about. Still busy working.


Been living in a cave? Google his last name, and Vanecko, and Koschman.

Deans family is comprised of very nice people who like the police and treated us well when we went to their restaurant. But his dad had the connections to get an audience for himself and a Sgt. who needed a favor so that should tell you something about how he has gone as far as he has.

Thats a good story to tell on a skiing trip Steve. And don't forget the corned beef rueben sandwich that would put Manny's to shame. Thirty years ago the corned beef reuben sandwich at the old Lenox House Restaurant was given four stars by the Tribune restaurant critic back in the days when it really meant something to get four stars from him! And you're correct when you say the family liked and appreciated policemen. And if Dean does anything he still remembers his friends and coppers he worked with as a PO. He did indeed do work in 013.

Who is Deans clout you ask? Let me tell you a story and maybe this will help you understand. Years ago my Sgt. in 018 fucked up and was "dumped" to 001. He hated it and wanted back in 018. But no matter what he did, no matter who he called he couldn't get back. But one day, presto, there he was, back in 018. I asked him how he got back and he told me that his "juice" set up a meeting with the Superintendent which went like this. The Sgt. and his juice went to the Superintendents office and were ushered in. The Superintendent sat at his desk, my Sgt. sat in front of him facing him and his "juice sat behind him. The Superintendent asked a few questions and then my Sgt. AND his juice made a case as to why he should be sent back to 018. Shortly thereafter my Sgt. returned to 018. I asked him who the mystery "juice was but he would not tell me. Years later he told me the story forgetting that he had told me the story before only this time he slipped up and identified who his "juice" was. It was Deans father who owned a very nice restaurant at Ontario and Rush. Deans dad was very active in the Greek community and my Sgt., bring Greek himself, sought his help and received it. Dean was not on the job when all this happened but joined later and mysteriously rose up the ranks himself. Deans family is comprised of very nice people who like the police and treated us well when we went to their restaurant. But his dad had the connections to get an audience for himself and a Sgt. who needed a favor so that should tell you something about how he has gone as far as he has.

Nope. This was handled years & years ago by other dicks from Area 3. It was handed off to Area 5 dicks. Nobody gave a rat's ass about Koschman. Nobody. This was a one punch fight between two drunken assholes. I have seen 10 of these mutual combatant fights and no one was EVER charged by the ASA in any of these cases. This was no different. Area 3 came to this conclusion along with the ASA at the time it happened. Years later the Sun Times dragged it out again. It was reinvestigated and it was still a fight between two drunks. Same result. Read the file. After the two were separated after an initial scuffle Koschman broke free from his friends and charged Vanecko. Vanecko punched him once. That's it. I despise Daley & his family, too. But, don't believe the media hype. The dicks who got handed this case in round 2 wanted nothing to do with it. It was handled as a drink fight because that's all it was and is.

Starting on 24 OCT, the International Assn. of Chiefs of Police (IACP) will be meeting in Chicago. Rahmulus will keep McStreetlight on board for appearance sake. Wysinger & Rivera will still be here for image purposes as well. Then Rahmulus will send Garry packing on Thanksgiving weekend when the media is focused on the holiday & football.

By the way - the exhibits are worth seeing & are free for First Responders w/ ID. The technology is mind boggling and if you want to handle various weaponry the reps will explain the product while you examine it. Don't let the name mislead you -'the companies also want to display their products to the line officer and are not rank conscious. Forward thinking departments actually send line officers for their opinion/evaluation of the technology.

Younger officers can also visit the different Federal Agencies exhibits & do some Career Shopping there are a myriad of Inspector General Offices for each cabinet level agency. Unlike our Aldercreatures they like CPD and want to recruit our young members (max. age is 35 for hiring)

Check out www.theIACPconference.org & click the Exhibit Pass.

Take advantage of this event. It's only the 3rd time the IACP has been in Chicago since the 1890's. Suburban/County/State Peace Officers are also welcome - don't forget your agency's photo ID. Some free, worthwhile door prizes/raffles from the exhibitors.

Retired & an IACP member extending the invite which our "gold star goofs" should be publicizing to our troops.

No I would not. I operate on an ethical level that does not involve greed. Example..... As an owner of a company I make sure that I make sure that I drive a beat up car and wear plain clothes. That way my employees don't have animosity. This gold braid pension system is unethical.

He left the scene because there was no scene. He knocked out a drunk that attacked him and he and his friends left. Nobody there knew that the other drunken brawler was going to die. A hundred of these scenarios happen every night inside and outside bars across the city. This one just so happened to end badly for one of the drunks. I have to agree with the other poster. It was two drunks in a drunken brawl and nothing more. It was made a big deal because one of the drunks was related to the mayor and the other drunk ended up dying. Moral of the story is don't go getting drunk in bars and involved in fights afterward.

One drunk was in the hospital in critical condition. Two detectives arrive at the hospital that night, and cannot interview the victim because of his condition. But they do have a case report with the identifiers of two witnesses who did stay at the scene. The two detectives decide to do nothing and go on furlough. The incompetent A/3 supervisors do not reassign the case to another set of detectives to follow up. They do not even call the hospital every day to check on the status of the drunk in critical condition, which is standard operating procedure in all the other detective areas. A/3 waited weeks to follow up, only after some patrol officer told them that the drunk in critical condition died.

The real problem lies with the fact that A/3 treated hundreds of drunken brawl cases the same, and this case backfired big time, mostly because it was handled incorrectly from the day it happened.
