Uniform Complaint Filed
Make the untouchable live by the same rules:
Earned not given.
- A Chicago Police officer who is a Fraternal Order of Police trustee has filed a complaint with the Civilian Office of Police Accountability accusing the commander of the South Chicago District of being out of uniform during a tense stand-off between citizens and police that followed Saturday’s police shooting of Harith Augustus.
Police Officer Fernando Flores said Commander Gloria Hanna endangered herself and her fellow officers by showing up at the protest unarmed without any of the equipment she needed to make an arrest or protect herself.
“Any time you’re in the public, you’re supposed to be in uniform,” said Flores, a police officer assigned to the unit that protects O’Hare Airport.
“She’s out of uniform. She doesn’t have a uniform shirt on. She doesn’t have her duty belt, which consists of a firearm, handcuffs, possibly some mace and a baton. She doesn’t have what she would have to affect an arrest. Not only did she endanger herself in a near-riot situation. But, the people now have to look out for her to make sure that she’s safe.”
Hanna could not be reached for comment.

The complaint was so well deserved. Ed will make it go away for his hand picked Commander. After all Ed did promote her to his Command Staff. When all was going to shit out there Ed was at home relaxing. This Department under current administration doesn’t care about anyone.
Hanna showed up at the Star ceremony with her hair all hanging down her back (attempted to tie it in a bun) and in her dress blues...out of uniform in her dress blues!! King Smith was a bit better but also had her hair hanging out from her uniform hat.....and this at a "Star Ceremony" how fuc@#ng disrespectful and sad. Eddie won't say shit because they are "his girls", SMH!!
Is That a HORNETS NEST on The Commander LMAO , LOOKING GOOD , LMAO
Good! That woman is incompetent as they come. She was wearing her bangles back when she was shadowing the commander of 015.
I love this. We need more of it and if Flores works at the airport that means he's KMA all the way so they can't fuck with him.
In my 20 years on this debacle of a department I've never seen a P/O get a CR on a Commander. Nice work Fernando.
What balls, bravo !
You just made a spot for someone at the airport.
"Earned not given."
OH PLEAASSE!!!
More like, "Merit base, in your face!"
OR
"Merit gotten, rules and standards forgotten."
OR
"We cannot promote a fina' man, said their connected Chinaman."
SCC, You guys are great!

That poster is BS too. The male version shows a M/1 with a full beard as being acceptable grooming standards.
Keep bringing in numbers for these entitled assholes.
Got my stunt weave switched on!
Who needs standards. We are all special. This is the new warm and fuzzy Police. Don’t forget to a sorry.
AWWW
he is picking on her he must be a racist.
She is getting ready to go undercover and fool all the riot makers.
With those shiny gym shoe and that flashy weave.
The CR number can be deleted just like special EDs for leading a protest in the City while being paid by the City.
Once again merits aint your friends and the AINT the police!
They hide video of shooting , Cheat on promotions and will throw you under the bus!
I have two of those posters that show 1970's hair standards: Afro's, sideburns, etc. Any offers?
Love it she has to respond with a to from right?
Kick out the clowns!
Time to take down the silly “grooming standards” pictures in all the stations. It now means absolutely nothing when we have a commander looking completely horrendous from her hair to her feet. Not a very proud department anymore. And to think inspectors have written cops up for white socks, finger nails and other minor uniform stuff that was never really even scene. She looks sooooo bad that civilian friends still think it some joke from Tosh 2.0 or Comedy Central.
Nice hair.....professionalism at it's best. Only in the CPD....
Hilarious photo shop. This CPD management regime is pathetic along with city hall.
Uniform standards mean shit if your one of the privileged gold stars!!!!!!
It must be nice to be exempt from all the rules.
and that complaint will go about as far as the dan ryan complaint did...
The me to movement hit the CPD. Anytygoes and ED is afraid to tell these exempt female bosses to look professional. Big coward.
Cut her a little slack at least she changed her from her bathrobe and slippers to that ill fitted ensemble...
Nice job Fernando
Isnt she wearing Sienfelds pirate shirt?
They will just unfound this CR number administratively.
With over 30 years with CPD and 36 years as Marine
There is a old line about Texas Rangers spoken to my CPD Academy class.
One Riot, One Ranger.
Guess it's more important to look stylish than command authority.
Any officer of supervisor she would give orders to would just laugh.
It is my opinion that the Commander should never been at front line dressed
they way she appeared. And not carrying her Department authorized duty belt and sidearm just made her part of the protest not the answer.
Did anyone ever stop to think that Commander Hanna was working undercover and plainclothes. Cops do that you know.
Fernando has a complaint about EVERYTHING. He wasn't a live witness to this so any accusations, outside of uniform deficiencies, is mere speculation. Trying to flex his trustee muscles is admirable because at least someone on the fop board is attempting to do something. The only problem is, his complaints have no credibility because most of them are historically baseless. He was the same way in 017.
Good luck with that. But you get points for trying.
Cream and crud both float to the top with the cream doing all the work while the crud does nothing.
Might as well promote a Neanderthal.
Shes a Fuckin Merit Hack, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT ?
Methinks that Officer Flores will soon have a ninety day detail to 006.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Assigned to Ohare? The clouted complaining about the clouted?
Officer Flores you're the man. It's a shame that we as Officers have to deal with these animals who only want to see what they want to see and not the truth. But when Commander"sheneneh" from the Martin Lawrence show shows up not giving a F&ck about our saftey. Thats a line we cant allow anyone to cross. When I'm on the street and if God forbid my life is on the line, I know that my brothers and sisters in blue will be there for me. Now imagine if I'm fighting for my life and Commander Sheneneh shows up I'm f&cked. Officer Flores thank you for doing what many Gold Stars should have done.
Well if there actually is a CR# then it can be the subject of a FOIA whenever the investigation is completed, to see exactly what kind of investigation was really performed. Don’t hold your breath though. Its going on 4 months now the CR# against GugLIEemi for lying. A CR# that should have been completed in about a day considering all the proof supporting the complaint. They do what they want to do and how they want to do it when it comes to one of them.
Great work Officer Flores
In my 30 years on CPS
I have worked patrol tact and specialized units.
And have been called out for emergency protests and disasters.
And each time I was in uniform.
But I guess if your special you do not need any uniform.
That is just insulting the rest of the uniformed and tact officers on scene.
Taking bets for where Flores is transferred within a week. Your prediction ???
maybe they should authorize those shorts like on Reno 911....what a hoot
nice job Fern
19 paul unfounded

Are you brand new? A medical excuse (bump card) covers you for that. Believe it or not, the military actually has the same thing, but it is not so easily granted.
Maybe she thinks she's in the Navy. They just changed their standards for Female hair styles.
Goes with the sergeant at the taste wearing a dog collar as a head band
I didn’t see a BWC on the commander

After that bullshit DOJ report Eddie Welch III cowered in fear and declared that all BIA interviews must be recorded, with few exceptions. Unless the number against Commander Bangles is administratively closed, she will have to sit for an interview. If they do sweep it under the rug, the press can FOIA and see their bullshit reason why it was closed without investigation. If it isn't admin closed, FOIA can get us her interview on tape to hear how she eloquently defends herself from the allegations.
Any cop is a reflection of their commander. My HRI McGuire taught us that in The Academy
Semper Fi
It is really good to see some kind of push-back.
ANY push-back at all.
Our new motto on the side of our cars should be changed to:
"Send in the clowns"
How embarrassing.

It happens often. Talk to a unit rep that files grievances that turn south.
Where’s the flood?
Just the fact that the placed the picture in the sun times makes it worth it. It shows the taxpaying public what a joke this para military organization has become. This will be seen nationwide and should bother sino which stands for supt in name only
But it wont because she someones gal. Even le roy martin would go after this alleged police officer. Makes me ill just to look it really does.
That’s disrespectful and it could to cause some ‘get even’ roll call changes - if it gets any mass coverage, which I don’t think it will.
But not so subtle retaliatory actions are to be expected for everyone else.
Didn’t Special Ed show up at a northside shooting in his early days as a newly annointed StupidIntention wearing floppy corduroy slippers and a robe?
Or was it just a Elmer Fudd hat and a Grumpy Old Man wooly plaid tweed coat?
First rule in Clown College is there’s no standard when it come to loud attire when the crowd wants a laugh.
All they ask is that aspiring clowns use their imagination and liberate their internal tackiness.
Gaucherie is fab. It’s in the manual.
(Baskets Career Academy and Family Rodeo, Bakersfield Ca.)
Couple years ago there’s was a kid who’s father took him to the barber and had him get an old man haircut (The Benjamin Button Special) for “misbehaving”?
That was some lighthearted, acceptable discipline.
Does anyone think Special Ed would actually require any form of discipline of any his hand chosen Merit Exempts?
In reference to the previously posted pic, the background appropriating ‘stache marlboro-magnum p.i. man would likely be more offending than any flip flop bangle wearing spectacle.
It’s not 1979 anymore, but Sexy back.
Express yourself.
I think she had her service weapon the problem is that she had it in her sweatpants pocket!
Lmao 😂 at the photo shop. Bravo officer Flores, you definitely have a huge pair.

Do you know what a weave is?
P.O. Flores thank you for having heart and guts to do the right thing. Supervisors should look up to you!
Maybe she swaps spots with the other butter whip in iad.
The only reason for standards is to make the people who don’t have to follow them feel special.
Where is her gun? I'm assuming unsecured in her car? Isn't that against general orders too??
I have two of those posters that show 1970's hair standards: Afro's, sideburns, etc. Any offers?

You'll make some cash on ebay.
That was not the commander it was the cleaning lady !
to 07/18/2018 06;46am hey jack-ss l know fernando since i work in 016 and he is more of a police officer than you will ever be, at least he has the balls to file the cr you must be a political hack from the 19th ward with in an inside job at hq now to back to your bar on western ave get drunk and tell everybody what a horrible police officer you really are.
Everyone should carry a photo of this debacle the next time an exempt wants to spar you for being out of uniform.
Lead by example.
Lamon Reccord filed a COPA beef about Flores, see his fb page for a good read.

Commanders do not do that you know.
As you command officer Flores you are commending a fool. Obviously you don't know him. He's a joke

Photographic and video evidence are a great deal more than mere speculation.

Please tell me you're joking. I would normally assume that such an idiotic response was a joke, but you gave no indication that you were being sarcastic. So, in case you're serious, commanders don't do undercover work. Their pictures and names are posted on public websites. If they end up on the street, it's generally in uniform. At the very least, they should be armed. Armed and dressed in a professional manner would be nice. You work in her office, don't you? Did she tell you she was doing undercover work that day? Get a clue or make your jokes more obvious.
Question: Does her (Cmdr Hanna) appearance command respect ?
Answer: ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!
DISGRACEFUL to say the least
And that IS NOT the So. Chicago Dist...its Grand Crossing! Commander Tirado would NEVER act like that. Hes a Prince and a Professional
Okay! That’s it! I’m callin’ the Hair Club for Men. Gonna get gold braids for my new dooo!
Congrats Fernando, now can you please work on improving health benfits and pay raises for the patrolman.Thanks, hope your enjoying the airport.Thank God for Seniority, that is all We have left.
Driving a CPD vehicle without a weapon , what about that merit sarge with the goatee. She also failed to take action as a commander .
She be the laughing stock of CPD .
003 wants the Burger Queen Commander back .
Photographic and video evidence are a great deal more than mere speculation.
Hey Dummy
I'm referencing the speculation as to putting others in danger. You're reaching. Get some time on the job.
Commander Rapunzel??

Dummy? Nice try. Now try to keep up as I use YOUR WORDS to show who the real dummy is. YOU SAID "any accusations, outside of uniform deficiencies, is mere speculation." You didn't say "just the speculation as to putting others in danger." "ANY ACCUSATIONS" encompasses literally any accusations. An example would be that she was unarmed, or carrying her firearm in a manner not approved by the department. That one is proven by the pictures and video, showing that she had no gun belt or holster visible. I don't believe her sweatpants would accommodate a gun belt or holster very well. If she did have a gun on her, it wasn't secured in any acceptable way, thus making it readily available to one of those nice citizens she's standing inches away from. Another example of "any accusation" would be that she failed to control the scene, and failed to protect her officers, as the highest ranking department member, and commanding officer. That one is proven by the fact that officers were injured and doused with urine due to her ineffective management of the situation. Maybe riot gear should be used during riots. I could give more examples, including ones that fall outside your new limitation of "putting others in danger," but I stuck with a few examples of how she did, in fact, put officers in danger, and got officers injured, all while being unprepared to help as a police officer if needed, with a firearm, or handcuffs. I apparently have enough time on the job to notice these things, which somehow escaped your attention, or somehow don't seem like blatant examples of putting others in danger to you. Maybe you have too much time on the job, and senility has set in. Maybe you're just a dummy. Speaking of "reaching," congratulations on "reaching" a new level of stupidity. You should've quit while you were behind.

We really don’t have that. Senior officers get detailed to crap protests, marches and details while others with less seniority work inside with less time on and aren’t assigned to any of them. With all the detailing going on you according to seniority get assigned to a watch you don’t want and they detail you to your preferred watch. Same with transfers. Don’t post an opening, just detail a less senior officer.

Senior officers don’t want to work the desk, don’t want to do reports and don’t want to answer radio calls. You can’t have it both ways crusty. Someone has to do the work. You SHOULD be detailed to crap protests and any other stupidity. Especially if you have more than 26 years on the job, because you should be retired. But of course you’re not in a position to retire, because you spent your entire career being foolish and now you’re bitter about it.
It’s not just one supervisor. It’s the majority. The supervisors are the root problem of this department. They’ve never been held accountable. It starts at the top. Special Ed spends more time bashing P.O.’s when many supervisors are incompetent, lazy, weak and messy. They fail to lead by example because they are too busy being friends, listening to the latest drama, and being in competition with their subordinates.
