Rumor Confirmation
The lame stream media, in particular, Sneed, Main and Spielman, are playing catch-up again:
- A scathing assessment by the City of Chicago’s inspector general is recommending that at least 10 officers involved in the Laquan McDonald case be fired or severely disciplined — a report that is sitting on the desk of Police Supt. Eddie Johnson, awaiting his action.
Johnson is preparing to clean house, sources say.
Among the first casualties is Deputy Chief David McNaughton, a 24-year veteran, who submitted his resignation Friday, the Chicago Sun-Times first reported.
No idea what this means for CompStat 2.0 since McNaughton was in charge of the reboot effort. No word on Escalante's new job either.
FOP, are you lining up support for the collaterally damaged officers yet? Are you making noise about the improprieties here? The Inspector General doesn't have this sort of oversight that we know of, does he?
And is anyone wondering now about what the IG is going to find in regard to ExamScam II?
Seems like our information is far more reliable and in-depth than the media's.

LOLOLOLOLOL!!!
Is he going to get rid of every connected criminal and clouted clown?
The CPD won't have enough white shirts to man a single watch.
With D.M. leaving he made sure to leave his seeds in the dirt. S.L. will take over 189. D.M. still has connections
This department disgusts me. There isn't even a facade of due process.
Love the Scum times CPD shake up front page look, amazing you can only get bored and not sell enough articles and newspapers because your articles spits at the CPD day in day out but can't actually post something worth IN BIG BOLD LETTER LIKE RIOTS BREAK OUT BY THUGS AND TERRORIST IN WI or THE CARNAGE CONTINUES IN CHIRAQ THANKS TO A CULTURE PLAGUED WITH VIOLENCE, HATE AND NO REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE Ah only in the perfect world would this news actually sell and be more interesting then blaming the police for all the problems. But hey POLICE are the problem at all levels no one else right! its all about BLAME BLAME BLAME and no accountability for your own actions just another day in tales from the hood!
I give Johnson lots of credit for calling out the legal problems that give criminals chances time after time after time, etc...etc.....etc.....you can not Rehabilitate someone thats not willing to be Rehabilitated, or for brownie votes!!!
How do you say bucket of worms?
SCC you are rite on the money, great job!!
Hopefully the guilty cheaters are punished, the Sergeant making the complaint is rewarded $$ and future promotions are held off till all this illegal crap can be sorted out!
As for Special Ed, he is less than a man in my eyes. I though better of him in 006.
I hope she is worth the loss of respect eddie.
To hell with Dave Mc. He was a compstat whore.
When are the FOP elections?
Captain D Walsh was on scene that night' did he resign? That night of the shooting, he complained about uniforms of some of the people on scene, your a hack, retire please
Captain Kane, remember when I told u on the side that you pushing guys to get numbers is a bad idea cause it got the cpd into this mess? Remember when I begged you to not take advantage of a young watch who didn't know any better. Remember when I told you McNaughton threw cops under the bus? And what was your response? Chief McNaughton wants numbers and if you are afraid of being sued you are in wrong line of work. Well Paul, McNaughton took easy way out. Blue shirts will take the hit. Keep being company man Paul. As I told you that day, keep doing ISR, and I'll make sure I attend your benefit. You're a good guy except when you the company guy. Listen to the lowly 006 PO. They don't care bout you
McNaughton has a six figure pension, the ten PO's would get unemployment for six months. Keep working boys and girls, make those exempts look good.
Wow , he will wait til they all retire to do something !!!l
Ladies n gentlemen leave if you can !!!
What about the exam scam? Any word on that?
So does this mean that Mayor Rahm is leaving to? That's what was implied in the earlier post. Bad, bad, bad that 10 cops are taking the fall, but it would be good news if that little spawn of Satan were finally getting out of here.
You take the bad, you take the good and there you have the facts of life...
Please Rahm, leave!
FOP do anything? Really? Dean doesn't have the balls! If this IG investigation was legit it would have to include the mayor for hiding the video. And even if the IG don't have the power to fire and elected official they should be named in a legitimate report. Dean? Crickets!
Fairly from IPRA is the one that asked the IG to look at the McDonald shooting.
Why? I'm sure to cover her ass (save her job from the ax when Rahm disbands IPRA)
As to the IG and his inspectors and their knowledge of police functions (from street duties to completing reports etc) I am not sure of their qualifications to judge what an officer sees or hears. As in the O'Neal shooting, other than JVD's partner (who was closest to him) all the other officers should have varying reports as to what they saw or heard because of their proximity and vantage point to the shooting.
Eddie Johnson worked with March and Gallagher in 640. It will be interesting to see how Johnson handles that.
Those Lt's are too NOBLE to get into trouble
Sneed, Main and Spielman only print what City Hall tells them to print.
They're not reporters, they truly are City Hall spokesmen.
Escalante gone sept 7,he got the job
sitting on the desk of Police Supt. Eddie Johnson, awaiting his action.
you mean rhams decision correct?
The officers are going to be disciplined. But they won't be fired. The officers did not do anything wrong.
If I remember correctly, after the video was released, most of the protestors were calling for RAHM to resign. Now that he has thrown everyone under the bus to save his job, the masses seem to content - when does the investigation start to find out when and what Rahm said in the early days of this incident - and how he buried this until AFTER he got elected ?? Seems everyone forgot about all that ?
McNaughton was a company hack. If he gets thrown under the bus, anyone can.
Just so all new Officers understand.... YOU will be fired and maybe jailed if you make a mistake, however all bosses that guided you and signed your paperwork will be ok and collect a pension and probably get another 6 figure job. But by all means keep running and gunning you new dum dums. Keep working shithole areas for VRI and putting yourselves into a position where you have to take violent action to protect others or yourself. Realize this as well no one likes you, no one fears you and you are the medias wet dream. Answer your calls and write your reports well, and go home let the crap comtinue to cull itself

He isn't making the decision, they will be fired period.

8/16/2016 12:46:00 AM
As far as I know, S.L. turned down 189 before 020. He actually said he was never in 189 so why would he take it? Go figure.
People are resigning under threat of being fired because of an "investigation" conducted by Joel Ferguson??? Seriously, where did this guy all of a sudden become an expert investigator, because before IG he was a US District Attorney - sitting behind a desk asking LEOs to go out and investigate. Now, all of a sudden Joel Ferguson is the last word in these officer's careers? What happened to judicial process? This City is ridiculous.
Stop showing up. Do as little as possible. And Special Ed, ease up on your lunches guy. You sir are no leader.
Cleaning house? Sure Eddie 9161 unclouted as your so called gold star club remains in place the iceberg Eddie the iceberg! Mcnaughton will take that 130,000 a year pension get another 6 figure job and keep laughing all the way to the bank! Rahm your the head of the snake resign now showing how your responsibility and lack of leadership is to blame!
How about the Putz who posted: "Stop Scarring People"? Yesterday several people attacked SCC as being alarmist and inaccurate; turns out those folks were full of sh&t! No matter how good your "Spot" may be, Rahm and his Police Hating administrators are running the Department. Remember, these arrogant elitists hate cops, so anything you do, will be used against you. Even if you are Black. And there will surely be more collateral damage, you can count on that, because there are still idiots out there doing the job, like it used to be. Thanks SCC, you and hey jackass are the only place for coppers and retired coppers to know what is really going on. Baby"G"
While sitting on 1st watch in the ghetto it dawned on me that it really is time to get out.

FLASH --
Northeastern U. just hired Escalante as Chief Of Police.
Same shit different group
At Tiny Dancer's order, I'll bet FatHead Ed plays the 'Piece of Ass' card.
That is, his little LIEutenant sweetheart and her co-cheaters get to stay clean and clear while the officers involved in the LM case pay the freight.
Escalante leaving after labor day. He was selected for NIU.
Your guy is out, my guy is in. That is how "reform" in Chicago works.
It is already been reported online that Escalante accepted the position of campus police chief at Northeastern Illinois University today.
You knew that post was spot on. Eddie was chosen because he was black (buy back laquan McDonald votes) and easy to control because of his cheating girlfriend. All that's left now is for the IG to clear NOBLE cheaters of all wrong doing. Any officer who does anything other than answering calls for this administration is out of their minds.
As of 0945, Escalante going off to college.
And the Domino's continue to fall.
Maybe the national news media like Fox should be told about cheating Eddie and examscam. It's obvious our local outlets have no independence and only spit out spoon fed news.
Purge 1 Koshman
Purge 2 McDonald
Long over due.
Lesson is don't be Purge 3.
STAY FETAL!
Sincerely,
Dead End Westside Supervisor
When all the police super can do is resort to blaming guns, it's a clear sign he's a ball-less wonder who doesn't deserve the job.
Poor Eddie sure is no Sheriff Clarke.
Heard a rumor that Mr. Six is complainant against officers in the McDonald investigation , how could that be if he was Chief of Detectives at time of shooting incident ?
no copper will be fired , it's all happening to take heat off cheating scandal
look at any eye witness account of a armed robbery , homicide
different people see different things , different descriptions of offenders , type of gun , clothing agai no one is getting fired or going to jail
including Vandyke
he saw the offender waving a knife at his fellow officers , refuse verbal orders to drop the knife and watching the video many times it looks like McDonald is turning toward him with the knife
training videos show in less than 2 seconds , the officer could have had his throat slashed if gun holstered
he was in fear of his life all this is political cover up to get tutu elected
All this was reported here in comments section that this was being held till after the 4th of July / Summer. FOP should ask ALL officers to abstain from VRI, CTA, etc. If you work this Labor day Your an idiot. selling your self for 300 bucks is not a good idea.
Today, after a national search, First Deputy Superintendent John Escalante was selected as Chief of Police for Northeastern Illinois University. Below is a statement from Superintendent Johnson and attached is the University announcement which was sent to media this morning.
"As Police Superintendent and a resident of Chicago, I have bittersweet emotions on John's decision to accept this incredible opportunity as our Police Department will lose a very dedicated and intelligent crime fighter who cares deeply about the people and safety of our city," said Superintendent Eddie Johnson. "However, as a friend and father of college-aged children, I would be grateful knowing that John Escalante is the man safeguarding their college experience and future. The students and faculty of Northeastern Illinois University couldn’t have chosen a better candidate for the position of Chief of Police and on behalf of the entire Chicago Police Department, I wish him the very best and thank him for his invaluable contributions to the City."
How shocking. ...
EVERY exempt who saw the video should be demoted back to Lt or Capt. Start with Caluris- he would drone on about how ugly it was- and how it would hurt the dept if it ever got out. Unless of course DOJ is not really interested in breaking the code of silence, in which case allow them to keep running the show by collusion and coverups.
You guys a have a 6th or 7th sense - looks like you're batting a 1000 on this one. Be safe out there.
What happened to the Koshman exempts.....nothing.
XO in new 15 to be the new Chief of Patrol and Bobby C to first deputy sup
Mr. Six got thst NEIU chief job.
"This Town Needs an Enema...!"
Those Lt's should retire if they can, oh that's right she is only 37 with 13 years on. Not to mention the other colors Green, White, and don't forget Brown. Cheating their way to the top!
All we are required to do is respond and maybe write a report. We do that and we'll see change.
Change from the mayor's office, aldermen, IPRA, IG, right down to the six figure gold pension hopefuls. I'm willing to even bet you won't see as many marches.
The rules, laws, court; they are all screwed up. We know it is. But doing what's right isn't what keeps us safe from those very things we uphold or from those we uphold them for.
We've been asked to be more hands on. Be proactive. We're asked, why we won't write ISRs. We're asked, why we don't put hands on shit heads. We're asked, why aren't more of us being proactive?
Seriously!!!?
Do you not know how to read? Do you still live in glory days? Times have changed. Did you not see in Milwaukee, a black cop shot a black armed offender and rioting broke out. We are the ones being portrayed as villains?
There is a saying in the medical field that a good parasite doesn't destroy its own host. Well, to the parasitic mayor, aldermen,media the very public we went out on the limb for, you've done just that. And what happens when all those who actually pay for services through taxes leave this city? You'll see your services decline. You'll have a new mayor and aldermen who won't be able to do a thing for you. You will live the very life you protested for.
And for the record, we will be far away from this shit hole you call home living a quality life. Because we are Chicago Police and in the end we don't fucking loose.
These guys look like Bolivian Generals with all the shit hanging off of them and are about as legit.
If this dept puts a hatchet to 10 blue shirts for just being at the scene of the shooting, it will be felt by every officer on this dept and across this nation... Fop needs to get ready to hire a team of lawyers to fight this dept. May God help our city...
McNaughten doesn't have the time to collect his pension yet. He's only 50
OT:
Garrrrrry won't be getting that coveted NFL security job.
D.C.'s Cathy Lanier is resigning her chief job there to take the NFL security job. Karma.
As long as the IG is blocked from investigating the aldermen and the mayor, by their decree, then the IG has no legitimacy. It is a basically just a puppet show. We will see how it handles the cheating scandal. Simple statistics proves they and others cheated.
I am still working for now, but because I had the misfortune of answering a call for assistance out there and going to that scene that night I might not be soon. There was no cover up on the part of the police department. That is a myth perpetrated I believe to cover up blackmail money being paid to prevent risk to an election. Since someone needs to be blamed to justify that payment it appears that heads will roll. I believe that in this case Ferguson is a tool of the Mayor being used in justifying this blackmail payment to prevent that video from coming out just before the runoff election. Since the IG is outside of the departments rules and discipline process he can make any finding he wants with little justification and without ordinary due process for the officers accused. There is actual evidence that supports what was written in reports that appears to be being ignored if not actively suppressed.
Zero Hedge .Com just can't seem to figure out why Chicago and Milwaukee are killing themselves
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-08-15/milwaukee-homicides-soar-what-going-murderous-midwest
The key question is why the spike in violence now? Ask any "expert" to explain the cause of violent crime and you'll get a range of responses from systemic problems of poverty, unemployment, lack of education of inner city youth, breakdown of the family unit, etc. The problem is that none of those things explain the sudden changes in violence we're currently witnessing in the Midwest.
Thomas Abt, senior research fellow with the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, believes the issue is more likely what other political commentators have dubbed "the Ferguson Effect." Writing for The Marshall Project, Abt discussed what he thought might be causing the sudden spike in violent crimes in the Midwest:
It is unclear what is driving the problem, but my own hunch – and it is still just a hunch at this point – involves a criminological phenomenon called legal cynicism. Multiple studies have demonstrated that, controlling for other factors, when communities view the police and criminal justice system as illegitimate, they become more violent. When people believe the system is unwilling or unable to help them, they are more likely to take the law into their own hands, creating the cycles of violent retribution that were chronicled so vividly last year in Jill Leovy’s Ghettoside.
If fuckin Rahm leaves, who takes over? Prickwinkle? Andrew fuckin Holmes? Fadder F?
they are gonna get all the officers on scene e-mails! DONT LOOK GOOD!
Well kids, your seeing it in real time now. Remember when you were told time and time again that you would be left swinging in the wind when the shit hit the fan?
And you were told by the old dogs that the boss holes would save their skin while you go to the sacrificial altar? Look how fast fat boy mc no nothin bailed with his future intact.
Yes you can rest assured that he and the other brain trusts are going to lament sweating you for numbers, activity and isr,s while they sit in their lawn chairs at their vacation homes.
Your a fat ball less puke mc no nothin
Not a word from you in defense of the blue shirts
Expendable in your eyes
Better them than you right?
Here endeth the lesson kids
Well it's just a recommendation ain't it SCC? The real question is what will Ed do. Will he actually take stand and reject this overblown recommendation for a more sensible one or will just take a page out of the Rhamn playbook and crucify the poor working minions scapegoats? 9.5 choose his superintendent well, he has him by the short and currlys. Is the careers of 10 POs worth the protection for your exam shenanigans?
One thing is for sure the message is clear. Do not go to assist shootings much less be involved in one. Let criminals roam the streets doing what they want to do. I'm Sure the guys going to the scene that night to help their fellow officers never though they would end up in a complex web of .....er......police ' code of silence'. Ridiculous
An of course nary a mention of the assholes in charge of this video who unethically held it breaking the transparency agreement we have with the public and exacerbating the already strained relations with the community to the high levels they are today which is the cause of so much violence and protest.
Hope the younger guys on the job who read this blog will remeber that you are just one small move away from an incident gone bad from being shit canned and sued.

Fly on the Wall: What just happen to the Supervisors and Command Staff is the new operational procedures adopted by the Mayor's Office and will be carried out by IPRA and the Superintendent Office. In other words if there is a shooting and it is learned by video or other such means that the shooting is bad the supervisor and command staff who signed off on the Investigation will be held accountable. That also goes for the Detectives and their supervisors who investigate further shootings This is coming from the Mayor, the Superintendent will do the Mayor's bidding. There are several items I like to address in this post. The current Chief Administrator for IPRA IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE. REPEAT, SHARON FARLEY WAS PUT THERE BY THE MAJOR TO DO HIS BIDDING. She is in constant communication with the Mayor, the Mayor's Chief of Staff, and the Cooperation Counsel. The idea that the Inspector General conduct the Investigation came from the Mayor's Office, it did not come from Farley. From what I understand, Joe Fergusson has sold his soul to the Mayor. He wants to keep his job and the Mayor made him an offer he could not refuse. Here lies the problem. When Fergusson Office took over, the people he assigned to Investigate the shooting HAD NO IDEA WHAT RIGHTS POLICE OFFICERS HAVE. As SSC knows, many of the rights of Police Officers come from State law, court decisions, and from the bargaining rights steaming from the contract between the City of Chicago and the FOP. These investigators where floored when they learned that Police Officers have basic rights regarding the conduct of any investigation that might result in not only criminal prosecution and disciplinary procedures. Many people are wondering why it is taken so long to revamp IPRA. One of the problems is some of the rights Police Officers receive comes as I said, Case Law and State Labor Law. In order to change how IPRA conducts it investigations State Law must be changed. The Mayor is getting blow back from some central and southern legislators regarding changing State Law. The Mayor has another problem regarding IPRA. The Glen Evans fiasco. THE MAYOR DOES NOT WANT THIS CASE TO PROCEED. HE IS TRYING EVEYTHING TO GET THIS CASE DISMISSED. The Evans case is a can of worms for more than one reason. If Evans settles this case and does not go to trail, this will be a HUGE VICTORY FOR THE MAYOR. The people who are now employed at IPRA have no idea what is going to become of them. ACME who represents the Investigator are telling them that on seniority they can obtain other positions in the City. Here lies the problem: How many Investigators Job opening are there paying 70,80.90 thousand a year. More to come!!!!!!

Send all three of the above mentioned SUN TIMES shills emails reminding them that this website has beat them to every major CPD story for the last 10 years, then remind them of the Lieutenants test scandal that they refuse to even acknowledge, let alone report
First of all I do not know the Deputy Chief.
I have met him once or twice, seemed like a nice personable guy.
But I have to ask, how does this can of worms become his fault.
As part of the command chain he reviews documents submitted to him, reviews the statements made, and offers his comment whether Department Orders and Illinois State Law was followed.
Command chain does not investigate, does not challenge statements, only reviews statements.
Unless I am incorrect, a Deputy Chief can not call officers in and interrogate them as to what happened.
That is the job of IPRA.
How can people not at the scene, not on duty when events occur catch the grief for what happened.
I understand more heat is coming down the pipeline, and I wish all those who are part of this nothing but the best.
However I think this one is off base.
Kevin O'Rourke
With all the Gold Stars resigning, it makes room for the newly promoted Lt.'s to fill those spots. It will be interesting to see who gets those vacancies...
I was cordial before with the P.O.'s working security for rahm. Not no more: you f$#ked pieces of shit need leave that midget POS
Every person should go to Walmart, kmart or such and buy a disposable cell phone just like the gang members do. I picked up the cheapest phone and bought a minute card and paid cash. The clerk even programmed it for me and in a few minutes I was out the door. Of course, you can always have another person do this for you if you don't want to be on camera.
Amazing that the superintendent of police can be knee deep in a cheating scandal and talk about integrity of a police officer. He hasnt forgotten how many times he went into Genes office to ask if he had the copy of the test yet... Im sure Mr. Ferguson hasnt figured that one out yet. And Rahm will make sure that one goes no where, otherwise it will just be another one of his picks that may have failed. Like the ones that are already going prison. Superintendents famous word Unacceptable...City of failures
I've said it a million times, DO NOT connect your personal phone the CPD's Exchange server. It doesn't make you cool, only creates the possibility of them taking it from you and looking at the rest of your shit.
CPD used to not allow this but they do now in order to be able to nail officers even harder when shit happens.
democrats dont want their voter arrested.
So deputy of cpd is a stepping stone to NEIU commuter school police? Like this is legit? Why couldn't he have gotten a security job at Six Flags?
McNaughton became a big time company man when he put that white shirt on! How did that work out for Dave? If they will throw him under the bus, guess what? They will throw anyone under the bus!

Attorney for VD should subpoena Rahm ,McCarthy , head of IPRA personal and city telephone records from the day of McDonald shooting to the day the video was released . Could be some interference of charging , horse trading , maybe even criminal .
What was Independent about IPRA if the were in constant communication with the ballerina , crook county states attorney office etc.
With 20 years on this job i am heart broken to see what the job has become narionwide . Fetal is not a desire its the only choice we are given . I love the guys and girls on this job , doing battle with you has been my lifes honor and happiness. I miss that the most. Now as i push the beat car through the streets i feel in the pit of my stomach such lawlessness and loneliness . The streets, the people are hopeless and law and order is completely gone , ordered away by 8 years of a president that loathes law enforcement and America .its real dark times.

Hey Einstein, how old do you have to be to collect your pension???
On a serious note: Can someone explain to me why the lawyers who sue the city are allowed to file and get away with looking at everyone's PERSONAL phones/texts etc - who just happen to be on the scene of a police involved shooting? If I just happen to be the guy that guards the crime scene - not involved - why are they allowed to look at my PERSONAL messages ? Why our our unions not pushing back on this ? What gives you the right to look at my private stuff (texts)? You would think they would need some probable cause to get to look at that? This is a serious issue that needs addressing -?? I'm not talking about a city issued phone.

Why couldn't they promote someone from their own ranks.
The U of I system statewide supposedly has a good police department with powers in every county the university has property which is now all 102 counties.
It has a well thought of Criminal Justice and Forensics academic program. So why does NEIU need to get some dweeb from Chicago to run its department?
I think Rahm ran out of spots in the Park District, CTA, the Airports and other places to reward people who did his bidding.

If you're the Kevin who taught Law class in the academy, You have balls to comment on this topic. You were a lousy instructor and you probably got many officers in trouble with your useless ideas on policing. I don't know how in the world you passed the Bar exam and why you were allowed to teach Law.
The deputy chief was in fact on scene of the shooting that night. He was acting in an official capacity as the street deputy. He was there and he was also at the area that night. He signed off on the McDonald shooting. End of story. That's what happens when there's a police shooting.

When all the police super can do is resort to blaming guns, it's a clear sign he's a ball-less wonder who doesn't deserve the job.
Poor Eddie sure is no Sheriff Clarke.

He might not be Sheriff Clark, but Johnson has consistently mentioned the revolving door judicial system and lax sentencing as a major contributing factor in the violence.
Hey 11:52 A.M. You can start collecting at 50 numbnuts, It is 55 for the formally free now 2% insurance.
Officers, you may have heard Rahm, Eddie and John tell you "we have your back." Here is what they meant: If you are sleeping with a high ranking boss and you cheated on the lieutenants exam, they have your back and will fire anyone they have to so that your illegitimate career is saved. If you were the chief of detectives responsible for the entire LaQuan MacDonald investigation, they will make sure you get a pension larger than coppers make as salary, plus a cushy 6 figure job after a career of merit promotions, because you agreed to fire a bunch of POs to save Rahm's career. They had someone's back, just never the cloutless beat coppers who made their careers possible. Hope NIU fires you, John you political, soulless, spineless stain. I hope Ferguson and Rahm turn on you and your crew, Eddie you merit, cheating, coward. God bless these coppers who are victims of this sick political game.
I can't believe anyone still working the streets.
Eddie Welch lost out on the job?
WTF is going on at IAD nowadays? You give white shirts the heads-up to retire, but the blue shirts get run over by the bus?
How the f*ck does this back-alley political dealing get done? Does subject A call subject B to tell subject C to do this or that, etc? Is there a secret list? WTF??? How do the connected travel the alleys? With an invisible cloak only visible to other connected f*cks?

First of all I do not know the Deputy Chief.
I have met him once or twice, seemed like a nice personable guy.
But I have to ask, how does this can of worms become his fault.
As part of the command chain he reviews documents submitted to him, reviews the statements made, and offers his comment whether Department Orders and Illinois State Law was followed.
Command chain does not investigate, does not challenge statements, only reviews statements.
Unless I am incorrect, a Deputy Chief can not call officers in and interrogate them as to what happened.
That is the job of IPRA.
How can people not at the scene, not on duty when events occur catch the grief for what happened.
I understand more heat is coming down the pipeline, and I wish all those who are part of this nothing but the best.
However I think this one is off base.

There are other issues at play here apart from signing off on a report for its completeness and coherency. No one should be held responsible for something they had zero control over or input into. Boxes filled in, spelling reasonable, correct code, date, time? Of course you sign it.
But conflicting stories were told in the upper echelon about who saw the video, when they saw the video, who they told about the video, what advice they gave about the situation, etc. There is a question (or two, or ten) about whether there was a deliberate cover-up and what was covered up and why and who knew about it, up to and including IPRA and the mayor himself.
This has less to do with signing off on reports than it has to do with protecting Emanuel, who clearly benefited from burying this case in order to win a very close re-election campaign.
It helps to address the entirety of the case, counselor, not just the most obvious aspects. Remember Paul Harvey and "...the rest of the story".

If you're the Kevin who taught Law class in the academy, You have balls to comment on this topic. You were a lousy instructor and you probably got many officers in trouble with your useless ideas on policing. I don't know how in the world you passed the Bar exam and why you were allowed to teach Law.
8/16/2016 07:23:00 PM
No, but as the OCIC at an officer involved shooting, he reviewed the videos prior to making his determination. Therefore he is in hot water

He is 53 with 24 years on the job. He will be short of a six figure pension and unless his wife has health insurance through her job he will be paying at least $1600 per month to keep his current plan.
The mayor said he will stand behind Eddie's decision what ever that is. Really? No input? Haha

On a serious note: Can someone explain to me why the lawyers who sue the city are allowed to file and get away with looking at everyone's PERSONAL phones/texts etc - who just happen to be on the scene of a police involved shooting? If I just happen to be the guy that guards the crime scene - not involved - why are they allowed to look at my PERSONAL messages ? Why our our unions not pushing back on this ? What gives you the right to look at my private stuff (texts)? You would think they would need some probable cause to get to look at that? This is a serious issue that needs addressing -?? I'm not talking about a city issued phone.
8/16/2016 06:45:00 PM
Don't carry a smart phone at all, just an old fashioned flip phone. Or better, don't carry any phone. They can't search what you don't have. If the Department wants you to have a phone, they can buy it for you and pay the bill. Then there is no argument on privacy.

I have to agree. I in no way shape or form want ANYONE reading my personal text messages. If they want messages that have to do with the shooting- I'll provide them to them, with a proper search warrant. Otherwise, personal text messages are just that.

Hopefully they also scrutinize Lie-Tenant Fenner's emails.... especially the ones between her and Mr.NOBLE Gene Williams where the answers to the Lt.'s test were given and discussed in the emails.
Intelligence is not their strong suit but as of right now she's still a Lie Tenant.

EVERY exempt who saw the video should be demoted back to Lt or Capt. Start with Caluris- he would drone on about how ugly it was- and how it would hurt the dept if it ever got out. Unless of course DOJ is not really interested in breaking the code of silence, in which case allow them to keep running the show by collusion and coverups.

The U of I system statewide supposedly has a good police department with powers in every county the university has property which is now all 102 counties.
8/16/2016 07:23:00 PM
U of I Police USED to be a great place, but no more. The Chief running that Dept, and his incompetent command staff have destroyed it. Was a civilian member for a long time, and the dept is filled with many good Police, however it is no longer a Police Dept.
One big question: If Escalante stayed until the IG fired him, would NIU hire him? No way. This is a huge setup for non-clouted POs and everyone all gold stars get a pass.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So what! So did McLookatme and the stroke before him ! Johnson is barley qualified to push a broom . Poster child for affirmative action and CPD political roulette with exempt promotions.
Does the public realize in CPD & CFD the unconnected can only rise as far as testing allows. A Patrolman or Detective legitimately passes both Sgt and Lt exams and being unconnected they are generally given the least desirable assignments and never promoted above that rank. Those spots go to political lackeys like the current flavor of the day , Johnson. Additionally these assholes came on the job knowing that their future will be a series of one good spot after another without doing any actual police work. There are no exempts in either department who are not political animals, that is a fact.
I have heard these clueless idiots tell war stories from the 6 months they spent on the street in 25 years. One moron I had the misfortune of working for in the D would always suggest we get heavy with the customers. He gathered this from his 6 months on the street 30 years prior with an FTO who was a clubber and it was his constant wet dream that was real police work.
We are and always have been buried under a top heavy bureaucracy led by people who asked their uncle / china man to get them a job , and unfortunately for us some wanted to pretend to be the Police.
This is Shitcago and nothing is ever going to change !

what if you say you lost your phone? seriously. I was always under the impression the phone companies keep the substance of a text for 3 days at most. Most companies do not keep the texts at all. If they physically have your phone, that's a different story.

______________________________________
The amazing thing is that it is always the same people over and over and over again at the FOP.
I'm retired and I don't think there should be anymore than 2 retiree's on the board.
The FOP doesn't do a whole lot for retiree's anyway, so why should there be so many on the board?
Who cares if there is a young guy/gal that is new that gets elected.
As long as the person is qualified and willing to go to the hilt for the active members, they've got my vote.
Mike Shields was good in some respects and really really bad in others. One the the first things he did was go out and buy all the board members cashmere sweaters with the FOP 7 logo on them. Second was get himself a shiny new car.
But when he brought in the orange one as a spokesperson, that was a good thing, it deflected a lot of bs from the media and the community.
Having a specific person as a liaison between Springfield and the hall is another good thing that the current FOP admin does not have. ( Dean does it)
FOP Lodge 7 needs to educate the community about use of force, interaction with the police, educate them about our contract and what certain aspects of it mean and why we fought for those areas of the contract, host some community functions to try and bridge the gap that is widening between the police and community, bring some members of communities that are not seeing violent crimes in to speak to those areas that are and show them what works in lower crime areas as opposed to whats not working in the high crime areas and Why.
Just some thoughts. don't jump down my throat about my opinions, maybe add some of your own to this mix.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If he is that stupid, which I unfortunately think he is, he will lose the rank and file completely. Even his brass wont respect him. If he does this he is selling out in the worst most obvious way. He will go down in history as the worst supt in history. His and his unNOBLE cohorts will crash and burn. My prayers are with these officers, there are many people behind you.
Hey SCC, the police board case that was reversed by Judge Pantele in March of 2012 just got reversed on appeal. This has been languishing on appeal since May of 2012. These officers will get fired again. This is not good considering the violations of due process and the clear violation of state law and city code and GO's and Police Board Policy. If this stands and is not taken by the Ill Supreme Court then our due process as set in our CBA is useless. Where is FOP????
There is one thing that everyone needs to remember about this town. The media and public pressure determine who is fired and who is indicted. There is no way that Johnson can do anything else but fire everyone involved in the McDonald case who wrote a report conflicting with the video or who reviewed and approved the reports. Public pressure is too great. But the worst can happen, indictments and convictions for obstruction of justice which means the loss of pensions. The progressives are calling for it all and I believe they will get it. The once great CPD is dead in the water and will be for a generation. The progressives really think that policing in urban areas is a gentleman's business and not the rough and tumble occupation that it is. So, the progressives and the black agitators( communists) will get the department that they want and the black community will whirl down the rabbit hole drain into chaos and hell and their communities will become unlivable, as if they are not that already.
