Who's Running the Jail?

Evidently, not Dart:
  • Several rumored reports that the inmates of the Cook County Sheriff’s DOC have refused to work in their paid positions of kitchen staff for Super Bowl Sunday.

    It has been said that Sheriff Tom Dart gave into the inmates and ordered 50 plus pizzas in order to accommodate the inmates.

    Tom Dart does not run the Cook County Jail. The inmates do.

    Consider your vote very carefully come November.

    There will be no compromise, no consideration nor condoning of any inmate attempt at gaining control in any form.
Granted, this is from a campaign site, but it shouldn't be too difficult for the media to verify. Oh wait, the media has too many friends, spouses and relatives working in six-figure director spots for them to really bring the heat on Tommy. We were surprised to see the recent article about preparations for when the entire Third Watch of the jail calls off sick for Superbowl.

The guy on Crook County site is a moron. It’s literally one guy having a conversation with himself, in his head, then spewing it onto the blog, like a crazy person. Dreaming up a coup in his head and making up voices in shouts and screams to vindicate his own beliefs. I’m sure his mother and father got a chuckle out of him as a youngster, when they would call him in for dinner from tossing winning passes to himself, while pretending to be Dan Dierdorff in one instant, the quarterback barking signals the next.

In his 20s and 30s, it really became a problem and it cost him his wife and children. Now, drunk, alone, partially delusional and having just discovered the internet, well, no one knows what to make of it.

-no fan of Tom Dart but...beware the man hearing voices

I think Dart is purposefully picking a fight with the guards to gain sympathy from the media. It's just bizarre how he publically rips the guards and thinks that will creat a productive working environment.It's almost like he wants a big call off on the Super Bowl so he can run to the media and tell them how bad he has it. Problem is he created 90% of the problems in the jail.Same people calling in now used to show up before he was Sheriff.

Speaking of jail, rumor is our area central gang team thieves will be officially charged Tuesday. Very high bonds will be the order of the day with the exception of the one that folded and gave it all up at the grand jury. Whats certain is that they won't be eating pizza while watching the Super Bowl at the MCC tomorrow.

Yes, Dart is a Moron, and a Political Hack! However, where is the alternative? A cop state legislator, who cannot even produce legitimate petitions? Please do not misunderstand me; I detest the Democrat Machine, and what it has done to this City and to the careers of so many of us. Yet, we have been given few alternatives. With the exception of Rahm being put into a run-off with a Socialist named Garcia, can anyone even name the last opponent of Lil Dick Daley on his last run for Mayor? WE LIVE IN A ONE PARTY SYSTEM, RUN BY BURKE AND MADIGAN{S}, THAT IS THE REALITY. And until and unless, another Party steps up to the plate, we will remain Vassals rather than Citizens, in the Shitty of "Shitcaga", in the Peoples Republic of Crook County.

Never hear one person talking about his articles anymore. To his defense he may be being censored by the editors. This pizza escapade with Dart sure would be vintage Kass masterpiece. Too bad he is being told what to do now. Sure Miss the ole days when writers were not censored.

Citizen reader: agree or not the jail as a component of law enforcement runs best when it is run with the structure, discipline, accountability and character that you find in military and para military institutions. The problem in Cook County in my view is there is no discipline or leadership that comes with the discipline the leadership it should have. Dart is a hack, he is undisciplined himself. He does not even have enough pride to wear a uniform. Stand up straight and instill a minor modicum of confidence Tom.. Pathetic. You know it and I know it and he has hired an organization full of merit hires as provided by the Sheriff's Merit Board. What do you expect? You do not show up today you get a one day suspension, no pay and a letter in your jacket.

If you are referring to newspaper writers, there is always censorship, they call it editing, pretend that it's about grammer, style of sentence construction, cohesive use of paragraph breaks, elegant overall form of the finished, polished article, etc., but it's always been a given that editorial is gonna have the final cut on content.

That is censorship.

It may appear more blatant, egregious, and Orwellian these days, but it's always been the reality of maintaining the illusion of the purity of honesty of journalism.

Honest Journalist = oxymoron

When even an event as clearly absent of purpose to censor as the sun rising over the lakefront is peppered with subtle propagandas, and subject to editing to remove any possible contrary to propaganda suggestives, the old days must have been before the Creation.

The state of of mind of vasselhood is the cause of the problem of vasseltude.

You await the party, to lead you, the vassel minded.

You have assessed with accuracy, including being an example, that the vast majority of inhabitants of this city and county are thoroughly vasselized in their minds.

Thus, the only possible choices are, to the vassalized, either the party of dem Dem's or the party of feeble RePub's......

Our MAGA President has proven this to be a false assessment.

Neither political party, nor any political party of the irrelevant, insignificant fringe labeled, is remotely MAGA, let alone intrinsically MAGA.

MAGA is the state of mind, heart, spirit, being, that is the American exception to base human nature.

The machinations of political chicaneries are the chains of base human natures that bind us to vasseltude.

Break those chains first within your mind, heart, spirit, being, and then inspire others to do the same.

Or just relocate to somewhere where base human nature is not the most popular state of mind.

Just spare yourself the futility of trying to inspire any enthusiasm in the tainted political party panderings......it's all using shit as Playdoe and the end product is.....as it must be.....still shit.

6 years at the county, nothing surprises me. I wish someone get ahold of a list and see how many directors either paid for their their shiney gold badge or is related to him. I promise it would be over 75%. His niece (director white) use to be the coloring director then the sheriff got rid of the drug treatment program staff to get more directors and now the coloring director. Who yes went tier to tier who two interns and would break out colored pencils and coloring sheets for the inmates is now head of the drug treatment program.. I guess coloring will cure their addiction to drugs. Mean while let’s add more directors to run those drug treatment groups. Then his nephew is a sgt who is nicely hidden away from inmates. I’m sure a family reunion picture would have a lot of familiar faces. Shit even the girl who babysat Tom darts kids came into the Jail and went right over to sheriffs police. She even bragged about it. Not surprising.

Surprising would be him actually giving us any kind of credit for all our hard work. Instead we got a half ass email saying call ins were at an all time low. And thanks for coming to work.

Funny you should use the Fake News as both an example of bullshitters AND as THE measure of veracity by which you attempt to discount the widely known absurdity that is Tom Dart.

The left wing nuts are failing in their absurdities directed at our President. In fact, their absurdities are exposing their own feckless and felonious natures.

And here you are, pleading for "verification" and using the absence of Fake News confirmation as what, proof of your assertion that "you people" are prematurely concluding that the many Dart Disasters are exaggerated? Are fictitious? Are fabricated? Are the same as Fake News?

"Don't Do To Dart What Dart Does To You!!!!" is your advice and motto?

As we observe the relentless progress our MAGA President is achieving by exposing, with brilliant precision, each layer upon layer of corrupt political pustulant practices, we understand that the vermin, parasites, malignancies and rotten, left wingnut scum will squirm, from the effects of being immersed in their own nasty fluids.

The pathos of the venomous writhing in the effects of their own poisons is delightful.

They rolled in large hi def flat screens for imates in div 2 dorm 4. (which houses about 700-800 inmates in bunk bed dorm setting no cells) Along with di gorno pizzas all for Super Bowl. That’s a lot pizza. Oh and COs were fiercely instructed that pizza was for inmates not them.

Your right but I said we are seen as not that we are the laughingstock of law enforcement. I have 20 years in, this is not the way it was I agree with change but this guy is ridiculous, to charge staff for doing their jobs is insane. The worst part is letting the inmate do what they want with no consequences. Instead do something wrong and get rewarded. While staff are in fear of getting fired or worst going to the penitentiary.
If I could start over I would in a minute, but family and obligations must come first. So much for living a dream of serving in law enforcement. As they say inside it ran before me itwill run when I’m gone. Again Dart must go, vote him out.
