HQ Car Stolen? (UPDATE)
An unmarked?
Right from the lot?
Has it been recovered?
Isn't someone sitting in the booth?
No one watching the cameras inside?
UPDATE: Come on...seriously?

It was an unmarked dodge van with "M" plates that the honor guard uses. Recovered at 3500 Lake Park Avenue. The shitbirds ran it outta gas then cleaned the van out.... Flags, rifles etc. all gone. What HQ doesn't want you to know is that the goofs left it running when it was taken, and it WASNT taken out of HQs lot. Rumor is Rule 14 violations in the works for falsyfying a stolen vehicle report, etc. Lets see how heavy the clout babies in this unit are.

Maybe someone phoned the supr and had him leave the keys in the car.
To much expense and waste of manpower just to watch over some jalopy's. The car was not worth the bother, and the CPD has lots more worn out/trashed vehicles where that one came from.
That would be impossible.
The police are guarding the cars.
Dude, where's my car?!!!
It is not "stolen".
It is "unaccounted for".
Reminds me of the story of some guy in a unit years ago who got hold of a covert car and drove it for three years. He drove it to and from work, went to his assignments whatever they were, took his kids to school. No problems and nothing out of the ordinary until he thought it was time to get a new car.
Then some brass/asshat blew a gasket and wanted to fire him or worse. This guy claimed he was supposed to have that car. No you were not said Deputy Brass Asshat, we new nothing about it! Excuse me, said the guy, look at all the papers I filed with that car number on it, I only fuel it up at department fuel pumps, and I got the regular oil changes and tires at the Area Garages all with my name and ID connected to them.
He may have been bounced from the unit but he got three years of car usage.
When I went for my last piss test, there was no one in the booth. Seems like quite the safety issue at public "safety" headquarters. Just part of doing more with less I guess. No one in the booth means one more officer on the street... right? Yeah, let's go with that.
"No one watching the cameras inside?"
Proof positive that 300,000 more cameras are needed. Right?
One copper with a .38 and a good hard stick used to do better on them old shoes that needed a re-soling.
...and everybody knows it but won't admit it...

Hey scc can we get somebody to superimpose Jamal Greens photo on the department hierarchy chart right under the supe?
It's currently detailed to BLM !!!! With Eddie's Blessings.
Wow.
With all the ineptness and incompetence, I guess it had to happen eventually.
The BIG problem is, who has it? Someone for just a joy ride or someone wanting it for something more sinister? (fake police?)
This is not funny and not good.
It's now a full float strip abandoned in a vacant lot in the 4100 block of Wilcox St.
Lol - wait until you hear the rest of the story!
What a joke !!! Only in Chicago . Secured lots,cameras, stations with civiilians working desks now. The city does not give a dam about anyone!!!!
With the new cars they either had a key or a tow truck .
Beyond just jumping the fence to enter the lot, theres always the group of un-monitored criminals hanging out at criminal registration.
Lots of cars to choose from, and no eyes....I drive my clunker to work. You would be a fool to drive your late model..
Prince Valium
Gee sounds like the 2nd watch in 12. Station security is on the sheets, but no one is out back watching the cars.
Ot but mandatory 10 hour days for the districts this coming weekend.
Shouldn't the hillbilly-installed GPS show all? Better to admit a mistake than to falsify a report. Think one is discipline while the other might be termination?
Perhaps Jamal and "the new black is blue crew" needed a ride to "can't get right Eddie Johnson's" father's day barbecue....mmmmmm
Now wouldn't it be something if the thieves had done a drive by with the van before they dumped it! Proof the Police are in on killing our poor young aspiring youth.....mmmmm
Talk about fetal !
LMAO !
put the police officers working station security at headquarters and staff it with civilians!
This is the most embarrassing shit I've ever seen in my 21 years on this job. First, a bunch of jagoffs with their pants sagging off of their asses storm into headquarters and get in the face of police officers and threaten to whoop their ass. Nothing done and these fucking officers sit there with a holy shit what should I do look on their stupid fucking faces. Now we lose a van full of equipment and fucking guns. Holy shit is this place a fucking embarrassment. Maybe we should take a page out of father fakers playbook and turn our flags upside down. We are definitely in distress.

That's as good a the goof from 009 that took a marked car home and hid it in his garage for several years. Never used it. Just had it hidden in his garage. When they finally retrieved the car, no charges, no department sanctions, nothing happened to the guy. He just quietly retired.
In all fairness, the guy in the booth does have to use the bathroom occasionally.
I'll bet it was the Emerald Society Pipes and Drums guys. Dam Irish are always pulling those pranks! LOL
Rifles? More unsecured weapons in a vehicle again?
If a female can get stabbed to death on a train 3 blocks away from Area Central and a 911 operator can be shot across the street from HQ getting coffee...
You are surprised?
So much for tracking it on GPS.
Only us no-clout assholes in a beat car get dogged with GPS.
How long will it be before some fool tries to rob a liquor store with one of those rifles?
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
At the BET awards an actor named Jesse Williams made a speech about black lives matter and equality.
He said that the police always disarm and descalate with white folks but not with blacks. We just kill blacks. He said that in Cleveland the police did a drive by and killed Tamir Rice. He mentioned Rikiah Boyd and Sandra Bland.
Fuck this bullshit. Yet the mainstream media is eating it up. The black community always wants to talk about race and inequality. I want to ask them, why is the fuck that all the other minorities are getting ahead except you? My next door neighbors are Filipino. They own two businesses and both of their kids went to top tier universities. One graduated from University of Chicago and the other one is now in Stanford.
Don't let the facts get in your way you fucking bullshit blm activists.
I always wanted to be a cop. Graduated high school, went to college on a scholarship. Never bought books, got my textbooks through free interlibrary loan from Newberry Library. Never smoked dope. Ran track in high school to stay out of trouble. Ran three events; quarter, quarter relay and mile. Track was a sport that required no equipment. Coach bought my shoes. Sometimes trained in shoes other teammates threw away. Asked my parents for $30 for the police test, said it was out of the question. Now, thanks to Rham, I have a shot. In the meantime, I am training for the Chicago Marathon. If I can finish high enough to get a cash prize, I will be able to pay for equipment in the academy.

I was in the Intelligence unit way back when ( 80's) and a couple of the guys wives actually had a few of the covert cars to use. I heard this also happened at HQ where some of the City Hall clouted obtained unmarked police cars and covert cars for their use. The covert cars back then were vehicles confiscated under Art. 38 of the criminal code. The head mechanic at 51st Street had a list of the cars and their plate numbers. Somehow the mob obtained this list. How did that happen?
I heard Vincent Richardson was behind the wheel when the vehicle was curbed.
They should have a camera on the guy that is watching the cameras!
It was an unmarked dodge van with "M" plates that the honor guard uses. Recovered at 3500 Lake Park Avenue. The shitbirds ran it outta gas then cleaned the van out.... Flags, rifles etc. all gone. What HQ doesn't want you to know is that the goofs left it running when it was taken, and it WASNT taken out of HQs lot. Rumor is Rule 14 violations in the works for falsyfying a stolen vehicle report, etc. Lets see how heavy the clout babies in this unit are.
Kinda what I figured...while 3510 security isn't the best, I don't see anyone coming into that lot and actually STEALING a car by peeling the column, etc. (the way cars are commonly stolen). But I see someone taking some time for leaving a dept. vehicle running and unattended. LOTS of days off for that one, and for whatever story was concocted in an attempt to cover their screw up of leaving that vehicle running and unattended.
All police parking are unsecured, soon our cars will disappear.
The way this department has had the crap kicked out of it..... Now we've lost our colors. Losing the flags is upsetting. Those have to be found. The flags are used at a lot of functions that may or may not be important to some but they are also used at our funerals and memorials for those who have fallen.
The question is will Eddie give the car thief his cell phone number when they're caught? Hospital visit maybe?
Car 54 where are you?
Has anybody else been to 35th street lately and noticed how rude some of the P.O.s are to other officers? It's like since EJ got in some people assigned there think they are untouchable. Very annoying!

Would that be the same as falsifying A lieutenants 2016 exam cheating? Or is that rule "got clout?"
Clout babies? They bury our dead heros. How about tamping that shit back.
(OT) The city they are broke look at all the new people waiting to get a slip anywhere on the lake:

Raise the rates alderman its a easy way to pay police pension just do it!!
Let's all calm down. Take a deep breath. It was actually just the repo man. ROTF
(OT) with the presidential election approaching so rapidly and watching the candidates why is it during every speech Trump praises police but yet Clinton says nothing in our favor? The death spiral of policing is approaching seems even former police supporters are afraid to speak out, but a punk who is 1/2 white puts out an anti-police inflammatory speech during the bet awards (not going to give this ignorant clown name recognition) people white blacks Hispanic stand up clapping and praised his pathetic rant! How much more do police need to be beaten in the media by the court system before we as a group finally understand how the tea leaves are read? Seems everyday police are called to quell anarchy but yet the mayhem is released on us. At 1 time we counted on command staff to be the police but now with the boss feeling "uncomfortable" in the media and in general a real leader supports his/her troops guess we are helter skelter road to destruction!
The only that really matters is protecting 1 color that color is blue, if your partner starts tube aggressive bring them in throw out the lasso round them up before their and then your life and career are in ruins!
Lol - I told you the story would amuse you! 002 Tac is 100% correct. It was unbelievable watching the bosses scramble to recover all the property!
I'd like to see the face of the thieves when they find out they are wooden rifles and not real ones.

Lets get one thing right. Clout cannot get you in the honor guard and it cannot keep you in either. Several tried and failed especially early on. Nobody has even tried to use clout to get in for several years now. As far as one of the posters here, you just proved we were right to show you the door.

They do, and they usually do an excellent job. That however does NOT change the FACT that it's a PHONE CALL unit. And rarely is Common Sense required for these 'special' unit folks, as evidenced by adults not smart enough to turn off a running vehicle anywhere in this city. Tamp THAT shit back, chump.

Nice story. If you dont get the marathon money, but get into the academy, the Patrolmans Federal Credit Union will usually give you a loan for the uniform equipment. Think they have a $5,000 limit for the new recruits

The credit union will lend you the money, if you are hired. But, please do not come on this job. Please.
If you can't live without being the police, find another department in a quiet little town where they appreciate and support their police.
Back in the day, a connected lieutenant took a covert car to attend the FBI NA. He arrived at Quantico, VA and was phoned by 1st Deputy Townsend to return the vehicle immediately. He reported a little late for the training session.

You don't have $30 for a test but you have $200 for the Marathon entry fee?
Now Retired... something from experience
"... The shitbirds ran it outta gas then cleaned the van out.... Flags, rifles etc. all gone. What HQ doesn't want you to know is that the goofs left it running when it was taken, ..."
I've said this many times at Roll Calls. If you get a call of suspicious person or a burglar alarm at a V.F.W. or an American Legion Hall take it real seriously. These places can have a dozen or so WWI and WWII ceremonial rifles in there and the security may not be the best. The rifle may be old and the semi-automatic function removed but they still can pick you off from two blocks away.
I hope we have better security of the SWAT Team vehicles...
That is if we do have SWAT Team vehicles.
What idiots demanded that our police stations be big, open welcoming campuses with sprawling parking lots for police personnel and public alike.
"Has anybody else been to 35th street lately and noticed how rude some of the P.O.s are to other officers? It's like since EJ got in some people assigned there think they are untouchable. Very annoying!"
Um, excuse me, but HQ has ALWAYS been like that...what rock have you been under?
Clout babies???? Nothing could be further from the truth. You are just showing your ignorance, and are completely uninformed. The Honor Guard exist for the purpose of honoring our fallen, their families, and our fellow officers. Stop hating...we're on the same team jack a--!
The vehicle and all equipment recovered with 3 heads.

Ooh,ooh,ooh!
ISP had a sergeant at one time who had 2 squads. One marked assigned and one unmarked he "borrowed". No one knew for a long time the borrowed one was even missing. He was using it until he crashed one day. In it were some drugs he picked up at the lab and forgot to turn into the district. You cant make this shit up.
Press release from Eddie: " In replacing sworn officers with civilian employees for these positions, the Department used a guiding principle: do you need a gun, a badge and arrest powers to do this job?"
Timekeeper
Crossing guard supervisor
Watch secretary
Review officer
Compstat people
I know 012 2nd watch still has these positions staffed by p.o's. The press release should've had the disclaimer " unless your a clout house mouse or are too scared to work the streets!"

Can't you get on the Fire Department?
Sounds familiar, last month Gang Investigations recovered 2 CPD stolen PDT's. One was recovered after they set dude up to buy it and they arrested him. The other one was recovered in a house in 009th district. It's funny you hear nothing about this and the media is silent.

Ever wonder why almost everyone in the old Intelligence unit was Italian?
LOL, you cant make this shit up.
Hey 002 Sarge,
You sound like a pompous ass. First off the "unit" is not a "unit" it's a detail. Officers on the honor guard work in 007 (who I worked with), 009, 008, 015, SWAT, detectives, sergeants, districts and units. I've read tryouts in the daily bulletin, but what do I know. But what else is there to expect from a shit district like 002, with a shit commander and even shitier front line supervisors. Go back to your mom's basement you fucking tool.
Anyone that says they can no afford the $30 test is probably wearing $200 jeans and $150 t shirt.
Van was recovered and all the flags and ceremonial rifles were taken. Three juveniles in custody and were in court yesterday. The "rule 14" rumor is just that, a rumor and not true.

You guys are so cruel to this I want to be a copper. The poor kid had no gym shoes to run and no money. Son, go to Newberry library and watch "Forest Gump." he ran and ran and ran and ran. He owned Bubba Swimp and got new gym shoes to run again. A few suggestion dear man, tell ma and pa to give up the pipe for a couple days, hit the alleys and street for tin cans, (You like outdoors), Go cry to Father Fleger for shoes, tell ma and pa to sell their cardboard house by the river, Go hustle the yuppies off the Kennedy for chump change and limp a bit, or go fuck yourself you idiot looking for $ 30.00.
Hitch a ride to California and hit Hollywood and ask the stars to take you in. Hey, people in the hills never had shoes to walk around with during the Huckinberry Finn era. Running bare foot will make your souls get tuff.

@@@@@
Unit?? Are you dumb? You work in the deuce so you must be. They work in districts and do the honor guard when it comes up as needed for functions or funerals. They don't get put in a special honor guard unit where they sit around and practice all day. They work a beat car or tac car or whatever the job is, then when called for a service they do it. They practice on their own time, much like the guys in the pipe and drum or emerald society. Are you that dumb? All are prior military and usually volunteer to join the honor guard. Dumb dumb dumb. Just goes to show what kinda white shirts are out here.

If you were good enough to get a cash prize, you'd be good enough to be sponsored and have all the shoes you want. If you need money so bad get a job and stop running, troll.
The officer in the booth???? when??? for a few hours on 2nd watch maybe???

Nice story. If you dont get the marathon money, but get into the academy, the Patrolmans Federal Credit Union will usually give you a loan for the uniform equipment. Think they have a $5,000 limit for the new recruits
If you've attended college, you ought to be able to square away some sort of job that pays you enough to be able to pay the lousy $30 application fee. If you're that down and out, you need to go stand in the middle of street with a cup in your hand...yeah, that's the ticket. Put less into running some dumb long distance race which you will never win (unless you're Kenyan or Egyptian) and put more into getting a job that will allow you to bank away some dough to get yourself outfitted be a Chicago cop...IF you pass the entry exam and get hired! Priorities, Francis!
I always wanted to be a cop. Graduated high school, went to college on a scholarship. Never bought books, got my textbooks through free interlibrary loan from Newberry Library. Never smoked dope. Ran track in high school to stay out of trouble. Ran three events; quarter, quarter relay and mile. Track was a sport that required no equipment. Coach bought my shoes.

Sounds like you had a pretty tough life. So did ........EXCEPT I started working as soon as I could, and joined the military to help with all my financial burdens. You said you are a graduate from college......GET A JOB!!! $30 Should not break the bank. This is not the kind of job you want as your first ever! SMH
"Has anybody else been to 35th street lately and noticed how rude some of the P.O.s are to other officers? It's like since EJ got in some people assigned there think they are untouchable. Very annoying!"
Not even close to being as whacked as those pigs in the area north office!

That is so true.
The kid sounds like a professional freeloader. I got my first job when I was 16, a minimum wage one at that. I worked hard, did a little better than my peers and in a few years I was salaried management. I was a little older when I got this job and I appreciate the good things about it. I try to take the bad is stride, unfortunately, the bad seems to be getting worse now.

Wow, where to start? You twerp! I bet if your dumb ass wanted some sex tonight, you'd find that $30 if that was what was keeping you from getting lucky.
On the bright side, you're about stupid enough to be superintendent. You are too stupid to be the police, but you could be a boss.
002 Sgt. Thanks for proving that supervisors like you are the real problem on this department. The honor guard is not a unit. Anybody can try out. And not all members are former military.
At least the rifles are not functional, only blanks !- but let's see if they are used in a crime.
That's as good a the goof from 009 that took a marked car home and hid it in his garage for several years. Never used it. Just had it hidden in his garage. When they finally retrieved the car, no charges, no department sanctions, nothing happened to the guy. He just quietly retired.

There are 2 glaring inaccuracies in your post. First, he wasn't a goof. As far as being a cop is concerned most of you wouldn't make a pimple on his ass. He was one of the best around. Second, he did use the car and there were fueling tickets to back it up. He had a good enough reputation that he was allowed to retire.
They do, and they usually do an excellent job. That however does NOT change the FACT that it's a PHONE CALL unit. And rarely is Common Sense required for these 'special' unit folks, as evidenced by adults not smart enough to turn off a running vehicle anywhere in this city. Tamp THAT shit back, chump.
002 Sergeant
-----------------
So if you are the sergeant in 002, teach your desk crew how to work. Laziest people I ever had to deal with processing a prisoner there. Took an hour to get an inventory approved.

FLASH: there's a new entry-level opening in sales and distribution at Clark and Division. Great benefits. Plenty of running involved. A good fit.

This city does suck, Alderman Burke has a city owned or should I say leased black suburban or taboo all police equipped with a regular plate. This asshole has something big on the city for years. He still has a bodyguard detail too.
put in civilians and transfer these police officers to the south side and west districts to man the Beat cars! and rapid response cars!

I always wanted to be a astronaut. If your not from Kenya hang up your hand me down shoes and get a J O B. Your dealing with men and women who have heard every excuse in the world as why you can't do what the rest of reasonable society does every day.
I got a poor me story too, instead pour me another drink!!!!!
So the civilians are handed keys to access the entire station which is not available to most officers?? Lots of areas that do not have cameras and lots of cameras do not work??? And so far no inside people have been out???? The civilians are angry, rightfully so, as they were hired at a rate that was lowered after they left prior employment not to mention the other crap they were promised then denied once in the academy. They can not do reports because they can not log into anything????? Does anyone in this city have a clue how to run things? we need a Donald Trump for mayor and superintendent.?????????????????If Joe Citizen knew what was going on behind the curtain he would want a refund.
Make the phony coppers on duty disability do those jobs now staffed by cowards
you have officers on duty disability that can drive , take kids to school ,vacations to Disney , mexico ,California , stand in lines at airports but chose the easy way letting us pay for their salary on duty disability
we all know a few , hire private investigators to follow and fire them
once upon a time some good on duty phony disability got caught working for ccsp

Press release from Eddie: " In replacing sworn officers with civilian employees for these positions, the Department used a guiding principle: do you need a gun, a badge and arrest powers to do this job?"
Timekeeper
Crossing guard supervisor
Watch secretary
Review officer
Compstat people
I know 012 2nd watch still has these positions staffed by p.o's. The press release should've had the disclaimer " unless your a clout house mouse or are too scared to work the streets!"

Many departments, across the world, staff these types of positions with part-timers, who are recently retired police officers. Working inside, 2-3-4 days or nights a week can make a nice transition from one phase of life to another.
Certainly better than hiring political hacks and gang bangers for those jobs.

I certainly agree...give those spots to "Part timers" or retirees. Not full salaried P.O.'s (and i use the term lightly because they wear the uniform but are not the police). Offer those house mice that same job but at a 50% salary cut and watch those office spots vacate faster than a room full of roaches when the lights come on!

Crossing guards are no longer part of the police but OEMC. Timekeeper IS a civilian position, but then don't complain when the 83 year old time keeper fucks up your time worst than she does now. Watch secretary IS going to be civilian position too. Review is a BID spot so don't be jealous. Compstat I'm sure will go to the secretary to do.
Let's talk about the people who were allowed to take promotional classes on duty while everyone else covered their beat. I hope the DOJ was told that. Hmmm I'll bet not. But then again maybe they did.
So goofs were entered the H.Q. lot? They hardly allow P.Os to park there...and I quote "The front space are reserved parking, go all the way to the back or find parking on the street officer."
EJ look at 003 , front office is loaded with sworn police , many do not work a full tour of duty , caps office do zero , where are caps office ISR

SMH! The entry fee for the Marathon is $185!
