More Money for Brass
Good thing the Department cancelled VRI - they're going to need the money:
- Even as the City of Chicago faces a financial crisis, the Chicago Police Department is hiring a new leadership team with high-end salaries that total close to $700,000.
Anne Kirkpatrick, relocating from Spokane, Washington, will be the Chief of the newly-created Bureau of Professional Standards, the department announced Tuesday. Kirkpatrick was one of the three finalists for the Superintendent position, but will now serve as the main liaison to the Department of Justice as it conducts a top-to-bottom review of CPD's practices. Kirkpatrick will make $186,000 a year, the Department confirmed.
The new Chief of Staff, Robert Boik will make $175,000 a year after holding a similar position at the Chicago Public Schools.
After 20 years at the Cook County State's Attorney's office, Charisse Valente, will become the new General Counsel for the Chicago Police Department, and will be paid $160,000 a year.
In a newly created position, Robin Robinson, a former news anchor for Fox TV and WBBM news radio, will be the Special Adviser to Superintendent Eddie Johnson for Community Affairs. Her salary will be $150,000 per year.
Amazing, Rahm always finds ways to find money when he wants it, but not-so-much when he's legally obligated to provide it.

What about roussel, collecting pension and 175000. To be a tactical and operations adviser
Dont forget 72 year old former COS Jim Russell who McCarthy brought in has now moved into the position of former Chief(ill quit before i get fired Tracy)spot.Unreal,the money that is being spent on a top heavy dept already....72 years old what a shame this fuck has nothing else to do with his life....
HEY SCC Cop check your mail. Sheriff Dart was outraged murderers and would be cop killers spent so much time in his jail. You cant make this up..
“That makes no sense. It’s just insane,” Breit said. “We’re seeing judges making far greater use of electronic monitoring for non-violent offenses,” Breit said. “But that doesn’t help for people who are here for murder who are here incredible amounts of time.” ''The System needs deep reform."
What about James Rousseau? He's back on the dole as well....
Better have money for our contract. This is bull shit with 1 percent raises.
So 150 grand to do nothing. Special advisor.
This is disturbing
The Police...
Are NOT!
...The problem in Chicago.
The REAL problem IS that
maniacal little hair-on-fire,
Rumplestiltskin
looking fuck-prize from some
legendarily malignant place.
Rahm Emanuel is the burglar who isn't
content to steal your stuff and get gone.
He'd crap in your best pot and put it
on the stove...
>POOMPH!
Low - Med - (High)
"WHOOO!"<
Yes... Foul m/fers have done that.
You "Silent Majority" types really
have no clue as to how low these
m/fers are. Policemen are a special
and privileged few for seeing human
debasement and debased humans
up close and personal for one-third
to one half or more of a typical human
lifespan.
(But The Police are "the problem"
according to the popular narrative.)
Kirkpatrick sounds like a winner:
“I will stand behind my officers, but I will not tolerate egregious officer misconduct,” she told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in 2015 when she was a finalist for the top job there, describing herself as "strict."
"Kirkpatrick and the Spokane Police Guild had a tumultuous relationship as she attempted police reform and high-profile disciplinary actions that were overturned in court many times," the paper reported.
When she left Spokane, the department had "low morale," according to Spokane media reports.
PS when is dean going to sue Dougherty for the cost of the shields lawsuit????
Who is the guy next to Johnson during press conference about fancy new unit ? the guy that looks like the victim of Homey D Clown wearing green t shirt from living color ?
As a TAXPAYER,I don't mind paying the money for qualified people. How is Boik qualified to be chief of staff for the CPD. What makes Robinson a specialist in community affairs?
Ok, let me understand this. Is it because Robin Robinson is qualified how? To be Eddie Johnsons advisor? How is she qualified? What LAW ENFORCEMENT background does she have? I believe her qualifications are only surface related...BLACK and FEMALE! It is time for AFFIRMATIVE ACTION to disappear PEOPLE!!! That RACIST crap of UNFAIRNESS has RUN IT'S COURSE!!! I believe the DOJ is investigating the WRONG department, on top of that I believe they have promised certain people such as Craig Futterman, Jamie Kalvin of Invisible Institute, and Jeremy Gorner of Chicago Tribune to systematically nit pick the police and expose us by putting our private information online so as to cause harm to some excellent police officers. Watch your backs you three, the Government could be coming after you guys next. OBAMA won't be president forever!
Each of these people will have any army of go-fors and flunkees.
They all will need new take home cars, Dept cellphones, expense accounts.
Total cost about 2K a year, probably more.
The city is broke and cannot pay the pensions.
Tiny Dancer has money for these slugs, but for the retiree healthcare he cries poor mouth. Remember you working coppers someday you will be retired and the powers to be will treat you even worse. Don't buy their BS. ♠️
Anyone who can't see the handwriting on the wall right about now is not paying attention , does not care or has been unconscious. The mayor will do anything, anything, to remain in power. The establishment wants him to remain in power for they are afraid of what they might get if he leaves. It is all about maintaining control of the city, its many contracts and jobs and the money that holding the city can generate. People have been put in place to watch over Johnson and to control him. If the mayor and the progressives get what they want, all police officers will be investigated and judged by civilians with no insight from the department allowed. The progressives want to take due process away from the police and keep everything within a civilian review board. The union must become political, stay strong and united in the coming few years in order to come out of this with some semblance of justice for the cops or the most routine procedure can and will be either the basis for you suspension or dismissal or even prosecution. Look at the Baltimore case. Failure to buckle in a fighter resulted in criminal prosecution for all involved, from the arresting officers to the assist officers to the transporting officer to two supervisors who happened to come by. I believe that all six will end up acquitted but I also predict that the Baltimore department will fire all six regardless. Whats next? suspension for handcuffs too tight? It is sad that the progressives who know nothing about being the police or what it takes to control crime now become the judges of all things related to law enforcement.
Eddie Johnsons girlfriend promoted to LT she dumb box of rocks
I saw Johnson and his nut suckers in front of headquarters yesterday. He looks like he enjoys the perks of the job. Being a puppet for the midget fits him well. As for the job, lets face it, It is done put a fork in it and get out ASAP

for that quality of Brass, 700K is a f*n bargain 'n a half. Genius is Priceless 'cept in Chicongo where it's available for Hire dirt cheap. Congratz to all in CPD, now git yerselves to polishing that Brass bright 'n shiny !!!!
Sick. We know quite a few PO's that could do a better job for less pay and not require increasing payroll.
This is a total fail. Sorta like body cameras, ISR's, TRR's, and IPRA doing investigations only to turn the work product over to private attorneys that then sue the city for millions.
Obamanation at it's finest.
OT. Rahm and Hillary have to turn over gov't emils on private accounts to the world per judicial order.
The little jagoff mayor can always find cash for his pet projects. Just like the bigger asshole Rich (big jagoff) Daley.
Bring back MSF and TRU.
Appears to be another clout party instead of addressing the real problem !
They should appoint retired Judge Garritt Howard, he could lock up everyone guilty or not, and really help the police out...
I thought Rahm says the city is broke....... oh that's only for things Rahm doesn't want to do like pay our pensions.
For stuff Rahm wants to do the city always seems to be flush with cash.
Still praying
Welcome to Chicago you disgusting, poor misguided idiots. Good luck coming to the realization that you sold your souls to the devil for this unforgivable, fake ass city and department. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!!! Oh and by the way, no one will ever take you serious or give you an ounce of respect. Enjoy your anxiety attacks and stress that will lead to inevitable heart disease!! Just ask that guy from NY that almost croaked because of this city and department.
Sheesh! The title startled me. For a minute I thought it meant the cost of reloading components was going up!
Jim Rousell is not 72 years olds. he reached 63 last year and was retired. please get your facts straight, now Marv Shearer is about 72 and is a total stroke that has collected too much money along with his trusty companion, Tony a retired PO. What a real crime is that there are plenty of spots retired PO's and Sgts. can work after mandatory retirement but you need Clout to get these spots.
Unfucking believable is right! A mayor that cries broke about our pension and Chicago public schools and won't hire more police officers, continues to spend money All this in hopes to get reelected
Seriously as a tax payer also , who the hell gives the go ahead to create new positions like this ? Who says that the city's budget can afford a position like this ?? This city is so screwed and the idiots will still keep voting the same !!!
Ballerina , I'll be your tactical advisor for 1/2 of that . Money for political hires but not our pension fund .
The kindest thing one could say is "disgraceful"; there are other words that could be used one would suppose
Can someone tell me why Robin Robinson was at the NOBLE meeting back in April hooping and hollering with the rest of them with every word dropped by the unethical E. Williams?
Let the kickbacks continue. The Communist Party needs Funds for Comrade Hillary.
Funny how you don't hear Andy Shaw and the BGA complaining about this. This qualifies as terrible government and wasting the tax payers money!
New G.O is coming out about ethics
Well guess why Anne got that made up job? She was going to file a grievance because the selection process was bypassed. Remember Eddie was not on the list and bypassed the process. Look her up and see what's coming your way.
All we need now is Bozo, and Ringmaster Ned.
This Department is crazy....let it burn.
First off, he is not 72 yo. Second, he is former military with experience that he can bring to this job. Above all, he is a gentleman. ANd you wouldn't make a pimple on his ass.
Top heavy department I am hoping non of these mopes are in the police pension!
Need wording in pension that once you hit exempt no More pension raises.
If the Mayor want you to lead the City it should not come out of the pension fund.
I know Dean it is complicated.
I explain it like I once did in your so called class.
Picture the mayor hires 100 exempts at 200k a piece. should that value at 4 years at grade equal forever?
Start counting exempts who retire at the hire scale salary! it is a theft.
And P.O's will get a 1% raise!
This is such bad $$$ management and proof of why Chicago is so messed up. All these positions aren't necessary. It's overlap and waste. Big salaries that are not needed. The system is running just fine right now. This is CRAZY! Will any media outlet or gov watchdog ask "what the hell is this?" Stop wasting money! The city needs to hire and put boots on the ground
Yes.. THE BIG QUESTION.
Are they going to steal a pension out of it?
What a bunch of fucking garbage. Fuck Rahm and the city council. I hope it burns by the end of the summer. You got the police force you wanted now deal with the record breaking homicide numbers. Douchebags. Vote em all out
He's 65 years old, and he's one of the most knowledgable guys on this department.

Does anyone care to whisper in Tiny Dancer's ear that he won't be re-elected again in Chicago and to quit spending the taxpayers money like a drunken sailor.
Illinois no 1 worst credit rating yaaaaa
rudy guiliani for gov
seiser for mayor
sheriff joe for supt
incredible that they would expect someone from seattle to know about Chicago police and the scum of this city. this is the pussification of our culture.
Yeah, and the "union" we have sends their fop reps to our district come contract talks saying "we are lucky to have jobs and most people don't make what we do in this economy." Jackasses. However, there is always money under the mattress for these useless turds.
plenty of money
its just a shell game
dito dito dito dito dito
Undoubtedly they will be worth every penny. Actually those salaries are not very high for top tier professionals. Any lawyer more than three-four years out of law school and worth his/her salt should be able to earn more than $400,000 a year.
My guess is it is part of a deal to allow CPD to have a home grown superintendent, but with plenty of outside supervision likely reporting to DOJ lawyers.
The sad part about all of this is that the citizens of Chicago accept this nonsense instead of protesting. Sad I tell Ya.
Hey! Old chicks need a golden parachute too. You go, Robin.
How criminal...its amazing how some of these people can sleep at night!
These guys are " pissers". They piss away 💰like it was nothing. Yet no loot for a pension obligation
And everyone in a blue shirt will be told 8% over 5 years with an increase in the pension contribution taken from your check. It's all cronies & bullshit
Are they gonna be getting a handout from our pension too???
A big waste of tax payer dollars!
More money being flushed down the proverbial toilet with these useless administrators and bean counters. And none of this seems to phase the taxpayers here, well the ones that are left anyway. People by the masses should be outside city hall with pitchforks and torches.
Robin R. gets 170K well girl , just donate that graft salary right back to the community .....
Or make a "donation" to the worthwhile charity of your choice to stem the violence Ma'am

Roussell retired mandatory at 63 about 2 years or so ago. That would make him 65 now. You must have gone to a public school.
JR is a complete phony. Anyone who believes his BS is a fool
Will these newly created positions/persons receive a cpd pension some day???
Does this make any sense? If we need to pay a retired guy Chiefs pay to advise the 1st deputy and Johnson, then doesn't that mean they are extremely unqualified for their position? Then the Seatle lady gets hired who was a finalist, when the 1st and Sup weren't? I am really confused or we as a organization are sinking.
If you look at these old crusty pieces of shit bosses you should understand the real reason they don't leave is that they lose all their ability to have suck holes and ass-kissers surrounding them and the lose of respect if they retire is just too great an obstacle for them to negotiate. I left this job at 55 and I would have left at 50 had it not been for the free health care. Some peoples entire live revolve around this job. They are incapable of doing or thinking about anything else. I pity them.
Nothing new and nothing to see here. Business as usual. The Chicago way. Oh by the way, they can also write their own ISR.
More money and 4000 less officers to supervise....sounds about right

Andy Shaw and the Better Government Association are nothing but shills for the politicians. They hoot and holler about employee overtime pay. But they never seem to complain about how contracts that are worth millions and hundreds of millions of dollars are awarded. Or how political insiders serve on the Navy Pier board, Park District board, etc. Or cost over runs and how city services are privatized and they just arbitrarily decide who they want to contract with. It's all legit right Andy? The police, fire and city teachers are the reason why the city is broke right Andy? Get da faq outta here!!!
From Crain's Chicago Business, Greg Hintx column on 9Jun16:
I was able to catch Robinson on her cellphone, and she told an interesting tale.
Robinson said she was out at brunch recently with two young friends, both community activists, and she looked up and saw Johnson, whom she'd never met, at the next table. "I didn't recognize him," Robinson said. "I told him to be careful, or he'd be profiled; he was wearing a hoodie."
The group talked and exchanged information, and Johnson later offered her a job, Robinson continued.
"I took the job because Eddie Johnson convinced me he's about radical change . . . improving relations” between the community and police. In her job as a journalist, "I didn't just do a story and walk away. I've been involved in every corner of the city. I am involved in community affairs just about every day."
Asked for an example, Robinson told me what was on her calendar yesterday. Included were a meeting with a group seeking park improvements, a sit-down with the mother of a slain teenager and a session with a theater group that wants to stage a play about changing race relations.
"This city can't continue to look like two cities," concluded Robinson, who lives in the South Loop. Sometimes people look at police and see the enemy, and police look at a young person and see a threat. "We need to change perceptions."

So, there's no one else on the job who can fill that position? That's a travesty and it highlights a huge failure to train the next generation of police.

Overpaid political FUCKING HACKS!!!
I love reading the Roussel brown nosers who don't know his real colors. He is slime and will throw anyone under the bus to keep his spot. Just like he did to Tracy once McCarthy left. I was at MSF with him. He comes off polished but then you see all of his crazy ideas and you start to realize he is a complete idiot. By the way he isn't a colonel like most say. Start being a leader instead of following him around and listening to his bs stories. Most people that I know who actually did something. Don't talk about it! I am so glad that I retired.
I'm Done says
Off topic, what kills me is these new sos, mfu, etc. units that there conjuring up again. I've heard a lot of coppers and bosses jumping on each other to get these spots. Then your going to say it's mostly young whipper snappers (PPO's) not...
The same PO's that ran with the units of past, the same lot of PO's that got fucked on the bad districts. The whole bunch of coppers on this department is whats wrong, not the bosses. These days policing is over, unless you want to be the next youtube sensation. Bosses are loosing their attempts of intimidation toward some PO's, because PO's with even a little time on the job are not scared of the antics of a lot of bosses. Many PO's today are more careful now more than ever and are reading up on general orders, rules and regulations, etc. The bosses on the other hand now a days especially the young inexperienced merit dushbags couldn't manage a circus of clowns on their best day. Don't stay fetal boys and girls, remain comatose until all this shit is gone. As far as this topic, the powers that be will always do what ever they want at least till they die. I've got god willing 3 maybe 4 more years retiring at still a young age of 53 having done 30 yrs. on this once great department and in good health, hell still pushing a beat car on the south side in 7 to top it off for a good 15yrs. now, half a career in 7. I should of got my head examined many a years ago. Well I'm not the only PO that's going to retire soon but god bless you all and remain comatose.....
Robin Robinson is only qualified enough to put a 1/4" of makeup and read off a teleprompter!!!!!
we need Rousell back in 024. He commanded respect and was good with manpower management. Lucky if the all beat cars are manned now...2 year wonders got their calls in.....can't even handle taking radio calls. pitiful.

Just what we need more poiticians as bosses
Ann Kirkpatrick looks suspiciously like Rahm in a wig. Has anyone seen them in the same room at the same time? I think Rahm is stealing money and getting a second salary by posing as a woman.
I worked for JR in 015 when he was a Gang Sgt., nice guy but not the Police. He was a tact guy in 016 before that. I agree with the poster that he said has nothing better to do with his life. He should retire, life is short, enjoy what time you have left. The job will never be the same in our lifetime, Police work as we know it is over and gone for quite awhile, if not forever.
Please chop Georgas at the knees, this micro managing fat Greek was touted as the second coming because he is supposed to be smart ! He was a great test taker that was given the answers and never really was a policeman . If this idiot would stop dictating how specialized units should run and let the supervisors run them things would run a lot smoother . I hope Rousell or the Superintendent have the insight to send him to a district as a field Lt. and let him finish his so called career in the trenches ! Oooooohhhhhhppphhhaaaa!
Another complete Rahm failure$$$$$.
A disgruntled tax payer.
The City of Chicago is always crying about having no money. They always drag on our police contract, always trying to screw us. No money for school teachers. Are our pensions secured ? Why do we need all these police political puppets ? Rahm wants to raise property taxes. People are moving out of the city. Crime is out of control. The city keeps giving out money in law suits. Rahm has to be voted out in the next election.
I would say that, conservatively, Roussell and the other recycled hodgepodge of farmed-out has beens recently hired on by Rahm (to help EJ and JE properly manage the department) raised the budgetary costs of the dept. by at least an additional $800K in six figure salaries. But what the hey, when you add up last year's $116 million dollar overtime spent (AND FOR WHAT??) I guess an additional $800K isn't so bad, as I expect that overtime will be down significantly this year, overall.

Seriously, you think these people are "top tier?" I would also suggest that 90% of lawyers in this country make under $400,000/yr. Look at our gold stars. How many of them, or how many executives in Chicago government are top tier? I would suggest that very few are!!!!!!
I want a better raise and fund my pension.

Anne Kirkpatrick cost her last job 1.7 million for screwing over a detective punitive damages against her were 250,000 which her last position paid for her! Beware of this hatchet lady she is here for a reason and it is not to help the rank and file
These new hires have done nothing but confirm that Eddie is a puppet of the 5th Floor.

Signed, Mrs. Rousell. Schenker was also a former Marine who after being terminated, had to be ordered by Cline to leave the Academy. This worn out belief that former Military equates to brilliance in Leadership is misguided and erroneous.
"Undoubtedly they will be worth every penny. Actually those salaries are not very high for top tier professionals. Any lawyer more than three-four years out of law school and worth his/her salt should be able to earn more than $400,000 a year.

The key phrase "worth their salt". Be sure of one thing, none of these picks are even remotely qualified for the positions they have been selected for.
This is Rahmenomics on full display.

That's an insult to a box of rocks! It has to be painful to be that stupid!
From Crain's Chicago Business, June 8, 2016:
"Robinson's initial task has been to set up a series of community forums Johnson has attended, something she's been doing on her own time, Guglielmi added. And while her position is new, the department will shift the needed funds from an unfilled administrative slot rather than on-the-street police, he said.
Still, it's all green. At $150,000, Robinson effectively will be worth two rookie officers who could be on patrol."
So they're paying her from an unfilled exempt spot.

Sorry to tell you but this poster is right on! Plenty will agree. Georgas is a big fat idiot. He doesn't really know what it's like to be the real police stuck in patrol for any decent amount of time. And that's my 2 cents, and I am not the original poster.
Dep chief S.G. Should spend a few hours each day of his tour in a box. Maybe if swat parked next to him? Handjob!
Where is the oversight, the community input on this waste of taxpayers dollars.? Where is the transparency??
I'm pretty sure Rahm Emanuel is the anti-Christ

I worked for JR in 015 when he was a Gang Sgt., nice guy but not the Police. He was a tact guy in 016 before that. I agree with the poster that he said has nothing better to do with his life. He should retire, life is short, enjoy what time you have left. The job will never be the same in our lifetime, Police work as we know it is over and gone for quite awhile, if not forever.

JR was a pretty decent watch sergeant in 015. He was probably still in shock wandering around the westside after making it out of 016. Then they disbanded Gangs and he got a uniformed team of those who didn't make it to SOS(?). What happened to him after 95 I have no clue, though unlike most of the other Tact/Gang white shirts in 015 after pacman, he was not banished with a brick.
shuffling some money around like this is no big deal. it looks like a lot when viewed out of context.
Off Topic:
I made 25 yrs otj, this past Feb
Turned 55 in April.
Do I have to put in my papers by October this year to get the free insurance?
Or, if I haven't already, is it too late?
Can't seem to get a definitive answer.
Called the Pension Board yesterday...they weren't sure.
Called FOP, left message. No return call as of yet.
Thanks in advance.

The last date is usually the 30th of Sep
But check your contract, it should be defined there.

"First off, he is not 72 yo. Second, he is former military with experience that he can bring to this job. Above all, he is a gentleman. ANd you wouldn't make a pimple on his ass.

Signed, Mrs. Rousell. Schenker was also a former Marine who after being terminated, had to be ordered by Cline to leave the Academy. This worn out belief that former Military equates to brilliance in Leadership is misguided and erroneous.

Gary Schenkel was a good boss. He wasn't ordered by Cline to leave the Academy. That weasel Daley ordered Cline to have him escorted out with less than one hour notice. One of the officers working there had to give him a ride home because he had a take home car and was ordered to relinquish the keys! Gary is a class act. The way he was fired was a disgrace.

More money for the Brass = more kickback $$$ to City Hall and Politicians.
schenkel was never a police officer
rumor has it he requested a beat car to change a flat tire for him in front of his house yep a real leader
