The Changes

Interesting:
  • Anthony Riccio from Chief of OCD to First Deputy
    Noel Sanchez from Cmdr 004 to Chief of OCD
    Michael Pigott from Capt 001 to Cmdr 001
    Elizabeth Collazo from Lieutenant 025 to Cmdr 004
    Susan Moss from Lieutenant 012 to Cmdr 017
    Elias Voulgaris from Commander 017 to Cmdr OEMC (lateral)
    William Clucas from Lieutenant 001 too Capt (XO) 001
    Carlos Mostek from Lieutenant (???) to Capt (XO) 022
And maybe some more on the way. Rumors getting stronger of Special Ed prepping his exit speech.

You can bet the "I want to thank you's"

You know, the new leadership and change

SCC, you forgot to mention the promotion of Cmdr Escamerit. After plenty of hard work, monumental mismanagement, and numerous bone headed decisions Bridgeport Tony has accomplished the unthinkable. He has now leap frogged the dearly departed Iron Joe Curtin and the handsome one Mario Pena as the worst Cmdr in 025 history. Hop in your take home car full of front office suck asses and go for victory lap down into the 30 sector, maybe you'll actually prevent a shooting.

Audiences have thrilled to the crime fighting antics of Batman and Doctor Strange.  The heroic might of The Avengers and the X-Men left you in amazement. Now, coming soon to a theater near you, get ready for the CPD's newest hero!

In a police department that desperately needed legitimate, competent leadership, one man's gold star shined brighter then all the rest. Now, in a desperate attempt to save Chicago, a Commander will begin a quest to make Deputy that audiences will cheer for. Coming this summer, Anthony Escamerit stars as 'Merit Man!'

Blessed with magical guns that he hid away in a locker from IAD, he's an Exempt member that will stop at nothing to enforce the law.....ten traffic stops at a time! Witness the power as he cons his way into getting himself promoted way beyond his capabilities! Watch in 3-D as Merit Man squashes lowly tactical officers and patrolmen! See his might as he wages a one man war against his own staff members!

Your heart will melt as Merit Man conquers love not only in the CAPS office, but at Police Headquarters as well. His titanic battle against the evil ACLU must be seen to be believed! So be prepared audiences to see a film that will take your breath away!

Merit Man opens this summer.
Rated Q for quota. [Exempt members with four meritorious promotions must be accompanied by an adult]

I’m ok with these moves.

Could be a lot worse. A LOT worse.
At least none of them ride a camel.

Anyways, the more important moves on this list put good people in place.
I know, coppers are never happy. But would you rather have COPA appoint our command staff?
Or maybe we should just abide by current CPD hiring protocols for these positions?
Not sure about all of the names, but I recognize most of those names as good police, who get it, look out for their troops, and can actually THINK without stuttering and stammering.


I know everyone will say all these people are assholes, that’s the nature of things.
So I ask, who are LT’s at the moment that people think should get the bump in the NEXT round?
We always hear about who is an asshole AFTER they make it, I’m just curious to hear who people think should make it, on a daily basis and not even as part of a serious promotion discussion. **

Beating Joe Curtin is monumental, trust me on that one, he was my Lt. back in the day in Old Area Three Homicide. We fucked with him mercilessly. He had a specially made wooden podium we kidnapped and would send him messages and photo's. This went on for well over a year. Then just before revealing its location, we sent him burned ashes in an envelope making him think it was destroyed by fire. A short time after sending him the ashes, we threw the podium on the roof of a business across the street from Area Three and notified Curtin by an anonymous call just before roll call. Wow, worst then the Joey Curtin, that's amazing; this guy has to be a jagoff in the third degree.

To any media monitoring this, take note of Lt. Rios quota system and next time one of his well-meaning officers gets jammed up, trace it to the top.

One of the first days I was at Sgt school, Piggy walks in the atrium with is face all red looking like a madman. Doesn’t say anything like congrats on making a promotion or kind words like P.O.’s and other bosses that spoke to us. The first thing he says is, “You all look like shit and you’re an embarrassment.” Everyone looks at each other like “ what’s this guy’s fucking problem.” Piggy goes off for a couple of more minutes berating the class and speaking to us like a bunch of kids for some reason and does a stand up inspection of our uniforms. I’m thinking is this some kind of experiment to teach the class of how not to be a supervisor, but sadly it was just his personality and awesome mentoring skills.

Collazo = Colossal Joke. Absentee sergeant when she had an area team. She left younger guys and gals unsupervised in 011 while she went and did her personal errands. Hubby Kenny babysat them when they got into shit doing their petty weed arrests and tvbs. Plus we'd get stuck completing their pursuits, IODs, etc. because she was absent. They'd occupy the room adjacent to our sergeants office and on more than one occasion they could be heard saying they were using her PC# to approve their own reports. Lack of time on the job and questionable ways she made rank aside, she's probably the last person that should be in a command position due to lack of experience. Not that I ever believed things would be legit on this job, but shit like this just reeks of clout and flies in the face of the changes that were supposed to be implemented after the report by the Justice Department. As for the rest of these moves? There's maybe two that are deserving, the rest are carrying on CPDs finest tradition: "Given, Not Earned".

To all who have the misfortune of working for Lt. Juan Rios...please do not put yourself in harms way by trying to reach his quotas(dope pinch a day)...he is dumping several decent people no
t for lack of activity but for defying his quota orders. I have worked with this guy for years and know that he will be the first to turn tail and run when his guys get in even the smallest jam. If he dumps you, consider it an honor. This coward never did a thing on the job except shoot off his mouth and suck political hole for his next promotion. To any media monitoring this, take note of Lt. Rios quota system and next time one of his well-meaning officers gets jammed up, trace it to the top. Allegedly this guy is to be spoon-fed a Commander spot very soon...very bad move! Remember, this guy will put you and your family in terrible risk and NEVER have your back. Take heed!

So true! Lt Rios can’t mange the troops. Spineless loud mouth. All talk

She was never considered a lock. If Staples was made 1st Deputy that would have been it for her career. It's not a springboard to Superintendant, hasn't been in a long time. She is relatively young and there's no rush.

Rham is re-elected in 2019, coincidentally right around the time Johnson can fully collect his Supe pension. When Johnson departs, that's when Staples has a good chance of becoming the first female Supe.

Riccio as 1st another good move, couldn't wrong with him or Staples. Clucas making Captain is definitely a good move, he will be a Commander soon enough and deserving. Voulgaris at OEMC.....

I worked with Riccio back in the day in Gangs North and when he was a Sgt. on 1st Watch in 016. He is a stand up guy and he knows his shit. Most people would say the same. The problem is that he will be worn down by those with anti police politics and will be expected to dance the dance with Rahm. It's a shame. Perhaps he will be a morale booster, but at that rank you are damned if you do and damned if you don't. He is one of the last bosses who really knows what he is doing.

I work in 025 but not directly for Lt Collazo. In my little dealings with her she has always been pleasent and professional. As someone who has a lot of friends on midnights, I haven't heard a bad thing about her. Not just from patrol officers but sgts and lts as well. Yeah, they probably shouldn't promote people that quickly, but this department probably shouldn't do a lot of other things either like body cams, copa, sucking off the BLM etc. It's the way of the city and the department. Given the times we live in, you could do a lot worse then her as a Commander.

Speaking of worse, let us look at the other side of the coin with Escamerit. Collazo had some negative comments on this thread. That is just the nature of the beast. She has also had comments of support and congratulations. Escamerit on the other hand has been the star of his own SCC thread about 5 times. I've read close to 1000 comments bashing him. I don't recall ever reading one comment sticking up for the goof. Speaks volumes for his overall lack of character, professionalism, demeanor, and just about everything else. He should be the one getting sent to 004.

One of the first days I was at Sgt school, Piggy walks in the atrium with is face all red looking like a madman. Doesn’t say anything like congrats on making a promotion or kind words like P.O.’s and other bosses that spoke to us. The first thing he says is, “You all look like shit and you’re an embarrassment.” Everyone looks at each other like “ what’s this guy’s fucking problem.” Piggy goes off for a couple of more minutes berating the class and speaking to us like a bunch of kids for some reason and does a stand up inspection of our uniforms. I’m thinking is this some kind of experiment to teach the class of how not to be a supervisor, but sadly it was just his personality and awesome mentoring skills.

He did the same thing his first day in the 001st District. It’s going to hard for him to motivate officers to work for him. If he continues that attitude show him that there’s strength in numbers.

1/13/2018 08:50:00 AM

I totally agree. I've never seen such a lazy bunch of officers in one place, in my entire career. The majority of 2nd watch PO's are in such a hurry to leave, they leave prisoners in the processing room and don't get the arrest reports approved (happened the other day...again) and go home. They go to DOA's and never even look at the deceased and write it off as a natural...only to have the funeral home find a gun under the body, blood splatter on the walls and a hole in the guy's head. 1st watch is even worse. Good luck finding them!! One guy lives in the district and tries to get PPO's to go to his house, so he can sleep. Sergeants go to their jobs and wait and the officers code them out...without ever going to the scene. The "bum" team is just as bad. The only thing they do is leave early every day. 3rd watch is getting better, with the influx of PPO's. Tact? M'eh.

And don't get me started on the chronic medical roll abusers, who are off for almost a year at a time with "viral infections," bronchitis, a sore back, etc.

I can't wait to retire and work somewhere where people are actually held accountable for their actions and can get fired for poor performance!!

He could not lead a colony of worker ants. He also is involved in a major investigation and they put him in OCD. Unbelievable. Richie is not smart, he is not qualified and he is an idiot.

Speaking of worse, let us look at the other side of the coin with Escamerit. Collazo had some negative comments on this thread. That is just the nature of the beast. She has also had comments of support and congratulations. Escamerit on the other hand has been the star of his own SCC thread about 5 times. I've read close to 1000 comments bashing him. I don't recall ever reading one comment sticking up for the goof. Speaks volumes for his overall lack of character, professionalism, demeanor, and just about everything else. He should be the one getting sent to 004.



No you keep him

Don’t care if they were ever working police, or that they look out for workers. These days workers should be defined just as showing up on time dressed appropriatley and handles beat, or whatever other responsibility they have. “Don’t confuse activity with progress!” . just want a boss who deserves the position, is the most qualified of Candidates, acts professional and treats all the p.o.’s fair. Really not much to ask for but it’s CPD.

I don't know much about Commander Cliche. From what I have seen and heard, he looked like and spoke like a cop's cop. I have to admit, he makes smoking look cool.

totally agree. I've never seen such a lazy bunch of officers in one place, in my entire career. The majority of 2nd watch PO's are in such a hurry to leave, they leave prisoners in the processing room and don't get the arrest reports approved (happened the other day...again) and go home. They go to DOA's and never even look at the deceased and write it off as a natural...only to have the funeral home find a gun under the body, blood splatter on the walls and a hole in the guy's head. 1st watch is even worse. Good luck finding them!! One guy lives in the district and tries to get PPO's to go to his house, so he can sleep. Sergeants go to their jobs and wait and the officers code them out...without ever going to the scene. The "bum" team is just as bad. The only thing they do is leave early every day. 3rd watch is getting better, with the influx of PPO's. Tact? M'eh.

And don't get me started on the chronic medical roll abusers, who are off for almost a year at a time with "viral infections," bronchitis, a sore back, etc.

I can't wait to retire and work somewhere where people are actually held accountable for their actions and can get fired for poor performance!!

1/13/2018 11:19:00 PM


Retire already dickhead. In case you missed it staying fetal is name of the game. Sounds like the PO's in 001 know what they're doing.

There was a news video about 6 months ago of a disturbance on State St. near a Red Line station. There were two officers and Pigott. The officer went off camera handling the one combatant and Pigott stood there with his back to the other.
I laughed my ass off watching him handling this.
Pigott is Not the police. Never was.

Mike pigott can thank Burke for his rise. Sickening. He will kiss ass with Rahm and the alderscum Sophia “I’m friends with the Obamas” king to allow 001 to lose more cops to placate and pander to the cop haters, reverends, and community activists on the south and west sides to get the ghetto vote so Rahm can be re-elected. In the meantime downtown and the south loop will see increased crime.

LOL! 017th has been blowing up with Robberies and Burglaries for the last three months. Yet, this CMDR. didn't have any strategy or manpower to solve / prevent these problems. All he did was took care of his favorites (Greeks and females). This guy is nothing compare to M. Staples. Staples would always visit the troops by going to roll calls. She would send you a thank you card for the good work you did and letting you know that your work was appreciated. I don't recall Voulgaris did any of that while he was in 017th. Some the good Officers left the district because this CMDR was unfair if you're not a Greek or a good looking female.

I got time on the job and doing ok where I'm at. I just feel that Voulgaris should've been fair to EVERYONE..

I am pretty sure the original poster meant Ravenswood Manor, not Ravenswood. Either way Voulgaris is a good man. By the way Duffin retired, too much baggage with the Markham incident.

I would venture to say she didn’t just start this when she arrived at 050. Which brings up the question. Did she bid in or come in under management. If under management, how would you use management for someone who is constantly on the medical. Happens all the time

To all who have the misfortune of working for Lt. Juan Rios...please do not put yourself in harms way by trying to reach his quotas(dope pinch a day)...he is dumping several decent people no
t for lack of activity but for defying his quota orders. I have worked with this guy for years and know that he will be the first to turn tail and run when his guys get in even the smallest jam. If he dumps you, consider it an honor. This coward never did a thing on the job except shoot off his mouth and suck political hole for his next promotion. To any media monitoring this, take note of Lt. Rios quota system and next time one of his well-meaning officers gets jammed up, trace it to the top. Allegedly this guy is to be spoon-fed a Commander spot very soon...very bad move! Remember, this guy will put you and your family in terrible risk and NEVER have your back. Take heed!

1/13/2018 11:49:00 AM

Let me guess, you're upset because someone has been asked to leave their cushy 10 hour day(wink,wink),4 day weekend spot that allowed them to do nothing and still wear cool jeans and new nikes without having to do anything. You've done nothing for the last few years and now someone expects you to every once in a while get out of your car. It's ok little buddy, you are gonna head back to the district and be able to tell everyone great stories and when asked why you got dumped you can tell them how you chose to leave. Clown! All things come to an end, whether good or bad. Warning to all the future PPO's that will have to deal with this poser. Take heed!!

IG makes his reports, gets printed in papers and nothing happens. CPD brass ignores his reports as does everybody else most of all the CPS. He just caught principals using gift cards for dinners, car payments, credit card bills and CPS says Ok we will look into and nothing happens, just like the CPD does
