Suburban Chase Through City

  • A suspect in a death investigation led police on a chase that started in west suburban Lombard and resulted in two crashes involving law enforcement vehicles in Chicago on Wednesday night before the suspect eluded authorities.

    On Thursday, Mayor Rahm Emanuel questioned whether the chase was worth the risk.

    “There’s a question there. At the end of the day, the [suspect in] the homicide in Lombard, driving through Chicago, I think, to the airport, still got away,” Emanuel said.
See? So if they get away, then there was no purpose in chasing in the first place. We certainly hope everyone is getting the message here.
  • “One of the apartments that were hit was not far from where I live. So, there’s a real question. This always gets evaluated when there’s a police chase, which is about both getting and capturing a person who committed a violent crime and then, obviously, the risk to everybody else.”

    Emanuel said he’s not about to “second-guess” Lombard police. But, he said, “There will be people that look at that."
Rahm said as he second-guessed. Are you getting all this?

At least one CPD squad ended up wrecking with one the officers involved suffering broken vertebrae - a life altering injury, even if it's called "non-life threatening."

Democrats are criminals, so it's natural for them to protect criminals. I mean, if someone killed a family member of yours and the police were behind them in a car, you would want the police to stop chasing as soon as they sped up, right?

Whoever votes for these sick, criminal, communist mother fuckers today is a pure, stone cold asshole.

Dont chase, the city will railroad you for sure. Let all the bad guys go. This whole city is a joke. I watched it on the news, they could have rammed him on ashland ave and ended it, but that would mean the police are evil

Being practical and using common sense, for once the mayor is right. The cost way exceeded the gain. There are safer and better ways of catching the bad guys.

Maybe Rahm could leave the policing to the police and try really, really hard to attend to some aspects of mayoring. He's doing a shit job of it, to date.

" At the end of the day, the [suspect in] the homicide...still got away" in no small part because 4750 terminated the chase after A FUCKING HOUR.

So by Rahm's logic, the City's position on terminating chases is supported by the fact that a bad guy got away due to the chase being terminated.

And I question whether your D3 chauffeurs/boot lickers regularly blowing multiple red lights to drive your worthless ass to destinations of little-to-no importance is worth the risk.

Fuck you Rahm. You're a hypocritical, ignorant cocksucker.

Lot of stuff has gone "citywide" now. The shooting from cars, at people in other cars, has burst its banks. Innocent woman got killed up in Wisconsin the other day. News radio reports that a banger got shot in another car-to-car at 1100 N. LSD -- it really seems to be drawn up to the Gold Coast now, all Rahm's bright lights -- and drove itself all the way back south to Comer Children's Hospital, from where it was transferred all the way back north to Northwestern. Like they say, some of these deals are costing taxpayers $250,000 and up per incident.

Another high-end store on Michigan Ave. got hit, a carload runs in, takes thirty seconds grabbing every $3,000 handbag it can tear loose from the security cables, then small white veh. books.

Can't chase a murder suspect...... Well I guess Rahm really wants to take this "sanctuary" city thing to the max. Why not, the justice Department under Obama has now said we can't use the words "Felon" or "convict" because those words have " negative connotations ".
Well we certainly did get change from this administration. That same justice Department refused to prosecute a single person in the IRS scandal, the black panthers when they were caught intimidating white voters in Oakland, Eric Holder saying no black person will ever be charged with civil rights violations while he is in office. That is just the tip of the iceberg regarding their errogance. Add to that the worst economy in modern history and the almost non-existent recovery but yet the media can not say a bad word about our Mayors former Boss.
I guess their feeling is that like the banks that were too big to fail, this disaster of a president is " too black to fail".

Car chases are not being fetal.

Chasing pushers down dark alleys anding in a shootout is not being fetal.

OT- to all you drug Warriors out there, the Judges in Cook County are against you. Nobody cares about drug enforcement and the Havoc it destruction it causes on the community. The president of the United States is granting clemency to major narcotics traffickers every year. Don't get caught in the hype and get yourself caught in a bad situation. It's not worth it. The War on Drugs is officially over.

What I find amazing is the way the newsmedia went on and on about how the chase violated CPD rules. Here we have the Police risking their lives to take a MURDERER off the streets and all they can do is rant on about rule violations. Nothing about the injured cop, nothing about how the guy will be able to kill again, nothing about how CPD and other police departments put their lives on the line to capture this asswipe just complaints about rule violations. The anti-police mindset is in full bloom in Chicago's newsmedia.

Citizen reader: I think when the cops catch up to this asshole, (not Rahm, the asshole the cops were chasing) Rahm is going to see something important happen. He will not notice it of course but many of the offenses happened in Du Page County and others in Cook. I am certian the Cook County charges will be pled down. But in Du Page, he will be fully charged, fully tried, full convicted, fully sentenced and fully fucked when he does the full prison time if you know what I mean.

That Rahm is how justice works in Du Page. And hoodies remember, juries in Du Page don't care how that much if you are not guilty of some of the offenses, they say you are so good bye. Go to jail.

To all the P/O's out there I hope you have read this, under NO circumstances get involved in a chase. You will be hung out to dry. Supervisors call the chases off immediately and save your men/women from what will be political prosecution from the little half pint pimp mayor.

Imagine this. You get a call that your kids are dead as the result of a police pursuit. And then find out the guy was being chased because he sold a bad bag of dope to a hype. Chases are stupid. And this one was more stupid than most. And even if he shot the guy, who cares? Most of you don't give a flying fig about one savage killing another. You chase because it's exciting. It's thrill of the hunt. It's not like the guy is going evade the law by going to some country where he'll escape extradition. These idiots go to Iowa and think they got away.

Was Rahmulus, who only recently was running with the Police Memorial Run to Remember, thinking of the injured officers when he took a swipe at the various police agencies involved? Who does he expect to review their actions? Du Page county prosecutors will tell him to STFU. What serious crime, if not murder, should police pursue? Maybe a dope deal turned robbery like the one his son was involved in?
Maybe he'll ask Madigan to direct Little Lisa to have her hack investigators look at the chase? And let's not forget NBC 5 who coincidentally featured an "investigative report" on the issue of police pursuits the same day this HOMICIDE occurred. Bet ya Carol Marin is clamoring to take over the series from reporter Phil Rogers so she can spew more police hatred.

The chase seemed kind of pointless.

They knew who the guy was, and he was bound to pop his head up again somewhere, probably in the near future.

All for a heroin overdose? They made it seem like the guy was the 2nd coming of Dillinger.

It was total bullshit on Lombards part, a drug overdose and they knew who the person involved was. No need to start an hour long chase involving 2 bad crashes and tearing ass through some of the most congested areas in the state ! They are gonna have the shit sued out of them as well as the city , you can bet on that!

Let's see here asshat, you're posting at 1:30 in the morning and you want to explain other ways "of catching bad guys." It's an open and anonymous post asshat, let's hear some of the "better ways" to catch someone wanted for MURDER.

I suppose you're a newbee with 2years under your belt, hence the 1:30 time, or you're a f...ed up troll who knows $h!?. Either way let's hear some of your "better ways" to do this capture.

It's shaping up to be a horror story that's writing itself...

A hollow being from nowhere and the m/fers
who pushed him have subverted every fucking legal, political and
societal firewall, safeguard and fail-safe in order
to inflict him upon the American people.

We recall a scene in the TV series "Kung Fu," when
Master Po has Qwai-Chang walk the rice paper and not leave
any footprints on it to prove he's "ready."

"Master! I did it!"

"Indeed you did, Weedhopper...
OK, snatch the pebble from my hand."

"I already did, Master... I substituted a piece of shit
when you weren't looking. I figured out which end is
the clean end..."

"GYAAHH!
Just GO already!"

And some progressive loons are making noise that they
want this Poot-Butt or Holder nominated to SCOTUS
eventually...

To the tough guy CPD who wants to hear other ways to catch the murderer. Newsflash boner, it was an OD. Is there really a victim? Sure, technically, there is. Is it worth chasing him all over the fucking place when you know who it is, what the crime was. No. Sooooo, new guy, the original posters point is to use your head.
