Promotions Coming
Special Ed sent out an e-mail saying promotions will be coming in the next two weeks:
- 7 Lieutenatns
- 90 Sergeants
- 120 Detectives
- 28 FTO's
Which means that the class of 200 that just graduated this past week is going to be filling the holes left by the Sergeant, Detective and FTO promotions. We'll post the lists when we get them.

Anyone know the current number of the detective list?

Fuck you johnson!!!! Stop canceling my days off asshole!!!! I like spending time with my family you pos!!!!!!!
No captains? Our LT. bad go to go!!!
This is a Classic Leftist Bureaucratic Move. The Fiasco that is the once admired and praised CIA and FBI, is the result of Left Wing Radicals, making sure that the future of the Agencies are led by those of their philosophy. Consider Obama's head of the CIA, Brennan, who Admitted that he voted for the Communist Party candidate in 1980! Just think about that for a moment. The Berlin Wall was still up, much of Eastern Europe was enslaved, and this Communist Sympathizer was being pushed up the ladder at an Agency that was supposed to protect us from Communism. Brennan was hired while the Cold War was alive and well. And the CIA that followed, like the FBI that followed have become engaged in an attempted Coup to remove a duly elected President. Now look at Chicago. Rahm's Legacy as it applies to the Chicago Police Department is basically to turn it into a powerless, dismantled and demoralized entity.He began by bringing in an outsider, who caused much of the homegrown leadership to flee. The CPD was basically turned over to the ACLU and BLM to decide policy! AND THE FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN IS THIS RUSH TO PROMOTE AS MANY BLACK BOSSES AS POSSIBLE BEFORE RAHM LEAVES, AND TAKES FATHEAD ED WITH HIM! The future leadership of CPD for the next 10 to 20 years, is waddling up, wearing Ghetto Fab uniforms with Ghetto attitudes! "And don't you dare arrest Dem Peoples & Folks, cause der iz too many of them already UNJUSTLY incarcerated!" Stay Safe. Baby "G"
Fuckin department just keeps treading water.
Hey SCC: Was watching the 10:00 news and was amused to see a report of Mr. Fenner patrolling with his son in a marked squad which had a Beat Tag labeled Car 3 and the title Superintendent emblazoned on the door like a jet fighter pilot.
Has Special Ed let his ego erode any common sense that he still had? Will gang members refrain from taking a pot shot at his squad while cruising thru the hood?
I remember years ago when the on duty Asst. Deputy Superintendent drove a blue Oldsmobile emblazoned Chicago Police Department Operations Command. The vehicle was nicknamed "the blue goose" back then. Should this newly marked vehicle be nicknamed "the Blue Bozo?" Perhaps a contest should be held by SCC to come up with a suitable moniker.

That’s 238 bodies and 7 sergeants to use at will until the van dyke trial ends. Pretty smart on Ed’s part.
Not a cop: would you please explain the difference between sergeant and lieutenant as it pertains to duties..
I hope Jvd lawyer calls special ed, Escalante, Mcnaughton, and Rahm to testify at the trial!!
I think you mean,
The class of 200 WON'T EVEN FILL THE HOLES left by the 245 promotions.
Don’t be a hater
So take more bodies off the streets right in time for the JVD trial. Is the 9.5 digit midget and special ed really that blind to the fact that when JVD gets acquitted of first degree murder all hell could break loose in the city? This city is royally underprepared and fucked.
Oh, goodie, more bosses for the sh^t show. Another white shirt to yell terminate, warn not to taser, implore you to de-escalate and other crap to get officers killed. Inexperienced bosses arrive in time for the aftermath of the JV trial. So the city gives permits to surround the building and intimidate the jury just in case, they have any bright ideas about concerning themselves with the law, but I bet the media will release their names to be safe. The powers that be can't allow what happened in the Rialmo case occur again. People might actually come to believe there is a rule of law in this city and that justice is not bought and paid for. Our corrupt politicians can't allow that to happen. By the way, smart move on Dan Herbert's part to recommend the interview and humanize JVD prior to jury selection and try to combat the 2-year long negative media campaign. Good luck brother, know many of us are praying you are safely returned home to your family.
And yet more merited political votes for the twerp MURDER mayor, be safe boys and girls in blue...
Blue shirts should be happy about all of these promotions. It gives all of us a chance to make it and better our financial life and retirement. Congrats to all who made it off of the list!
28 FTO's? They already promoted every one who passed the last test. Where did this motley Crew come from?
What about Fenner? Will she be double promoted to deputy? She's way overdue. What's right is right SCC. There's no no exams for CMDR for her to cheat on
huff and puff
this treadmill is a motherfucka.
It's like traveling up the down escalator.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Would love to see them throw the book at the cheaters from the Lieutenants test scandal.
Come on big head Ed, take one for the team
Congratulations to those who got the best scores or really did something extraordinary to be promoted. Merit does not mean that you got the commander coffee every day or can suck a golfball thru a garden hose.
He tells the truth and they cannot handle the truth:
Antiquated eulogy at Aretha Franklin homegoing ignites wrath
DETROIT — A fiery, old-school eulogist at the funeral of Aretha Franklin fell flat for many in the crowd and prompted a social media uproar when he declared “black America has lost its soul,” black women are incapable of raising sons alone and the Black Lives Matter movement is unfounded in the face of black-on-black crime.
And that was just 26 minutes into the nearly 50 minutes of words provided by the Rev. Jasper Williams Jr. of Salem Baptist Church in Atlanta as Franklin’s marathon funeral wound down Friday.
As he wended his way through the need for more African Americans to return to church and more men to return to their families, the heat turned up online, with younger people declaring rhetoric such as that of Williams is why they left their churches to begin with.
At one point, Williams asked: “Where is your soul, black man? As I look in your house, there are no fathers in the home no more.”
As for black women, he preached that “as proud, beautiful and fine as our black women are, one thing a black woman cannot do, a black woman cannot raise a black boy to be a man.”

Who cares anymore, the merit choices are connections and are usually dumber than a box of rocks. The vetting process is purely amateur and color-coded. Scams galore, especially when club fed beckons.
I can see making detectives but more supervisors? Way too many supervisors just sitting around. No need for all these Sgt’s and Lts. Now they have less to do and go home early more often.
We don't need more white shirts....
More incompetently trained idiots thrown to the lions, tigers and bears, with smoke and mirrors tactics instead of solid law enforcement knowledge. Pray.

Did you notice that their cameras were off? And that Ed’s was upside down? What a joke he is.

Provide one actual instance where this has happened. Not a “I know a guy who knows a guy...” You can’t, can you?

AND....where are their body cams? They're on "patrol" arn't they. Nice to see rules already don't apply to mini-soup. Congrats kid Im sure you'll "merit" every spot you'll get.
Mr Fenner makes Wies, even Martin look like Gods of policing.

If your not the police, then it’s not your concern. In addition, save me “but I’m a taxpayer” because I am too.

They won’t be off the street. Watch for them to be “detailed” out like that last detective class was.
OT. SCC can you tell me hypothetically if my brother and I were double merit promotees, but really tight with EJ, and we both were promoted to exempt but I GOT CAUGHT CASHING MY DECEASED MOTHERS SOCIAL SECURITY CHECK FOR A DECADE would I be stripped of my pension and fired? Or would EJ promote my brother to run the academy and pretend I had a medical problem then have cake and coffee for me? Hypothetically.
We need Patrolman put more of them on the street clean out the 35 th street and you can move 300 back to the street
Can’t wait for the merit. I know a few that made it and let me tell you those are “workers” lol
So when will Special Ed's kid get his merit promotion? By Christmas?
He's already got his daddy riding around with him!

What do you want? To stop promotions. No matter how you try to spin it, there are 200 more police on the CPD. Be happy about that
"That’s 238 bodies and 7 sergeants to use at will...."
My thought was the opposite that's 238 bodies off the streets- as well as the academy staff that will be "teaching" them
Call Me Mr. Lips
What would I do without Bean to provide me with a nonstop source of childish shell games to complain about? Unfortunately, this letter won't be able to address all of the points I'd like to make. With all of the dishonest elisions, bombastic flourishes, and pompous posturing, I can't possibly tackle all of Bean's blockish cajoleries in a single go. To put it another way, we'll be covering 190-proof Bean here. You don't drink it; you sip it. Let's begin our investigation with the observation that I am more than merely surprised by Bean's willingness to create a mass psychology of fear about an imminent terrorist threat. I'm shocked, shocked. And, as if that weren't enough, Bean is a bloodthirsty tatterdemalion. Consequently, attempting to respond to his morals with logic is futile. A more productive response is to observe that Bean's dream is to remove society's moral barriers and allow perversion to prosper. Then, just to twist the knife a little, he'll drain our hope and enthusiasm.
Unfortunately, Bean's irascible disquisitions neglect to take one important factor into consideration: human nature. My own position on this issue is both simple and clear: It's easy enough to hate Bean any day of the week on general principles. But now I'll tell you about some very specific things that Bean is up to, things that ought to make a real Bean-hater out of you. First off, his legatees are engaged in perpetual one-upmanship over who more deeply enjoys his zingers. These are the sorts of people who can't stomach the fact that if Bean wants to complain, he should have an argument. He shouldn't just throw out the word “cinematographical”, for example, and expect us to be scared.
A central point of Bean's belief systems is the notion that some people deserve to feel safe while others do not. Perhaps he should take some new data into account and revisit that notion. I think he'd find that he loves Pyrrhonism with the kind of irrational passion normally reserved for professional sports teams. I will now cite the proof of that statement. The proof begins with the observation that the best thing about Bean is the way that he encourages us to keep his jackals at bay. No, wait; Bean doesn't encourage that. On the contrary, he discourages us from admitting that he uses pharisaism to goad the worst sorts of pertinacious election-year also-rans I've ever seen into hurling epithets at his nemeses. That's the large elephant in the room that nobody talks about. Nevertheless, I avouch that people really ought to start talking about it because then they'd realize that we mustn't be content to patch and darn, to piece and cobble at the worn and rotten fabric of Bean's demonic precepts. Instead we must change the minds of those who place stumbling blocks in front of those of us who seek value and fulfilment in our personal and professional lives. All in all, I realize that this letter has seemed incredibly bleak. However, expecting the worst from Bean means we will never be disappointed. If we're wrong and Bean does not try to endorse a complete system of leadership by mobocracy, we'll be relieved. If we're right and he does, we'll be prepared.
Looks like Dan Herbert is pissing off judge.
The judge cuts Hurbert off at every chance.
But continued the hearing for violation of deCorum order.
JVD defense In this violation may need to call Hubert in as witness to this court violation.
Why did anyone agree to this interview a week prior to pulling jury?
Bad strategy there?
Rahm’s hiring plan hasn’t kept pace with the Shot/Kilt numbers.
And he keeps fooling the sheep with this “hiring” charade.
Read somewhere that Fatback ETJ said 300 “homicde detectives to be hired” by years end.
At least that’s what was printed in the Fake News.
Expect continuation of the leveling of the playing field.
Let’s see how many 20-30%’er HardChargers will be passed over.
Thanks for playing - Please try again.
It’s all BS.
Time to bargain out an end to the Merit Process.

LT and Capt make more money and do less. For example: Exempt member gets his marching orders and tells the Captain who tells the Lieutenant who has the Sergeants and POs do all the work.
More stupidvisors!!! More CPD Koolaid being consume! All hail the elite of CPD!!! Stupidvisors are awe inspiring!!
Congrats to Cooter !! Your time has arrived !!
Think about it. Car "1" and Car "2." The there is car 3. Who really, really runs the department?
To 12:13am theyare on #321 for detectives
I hope Jvd lawyer calls special ed, Escalante, Mcnaughton, and Rahm to testify at the trial!!
JVD's lawyer, while a nice guy, is completely overwhelmed. Having JVD do that Chicago Tribune article shows how desperate they are. I'm just wondering if our good citizens are more likely to riot with a guilty verdict or not guilty verdict?

I'm guessing you're close to the bottom of the list, otherwise you'd know to just pick up the phone and call FOP.
SCC question?
Anybody know how many actual days this year have been restricted time due or cancelled RDO?
Seems ever things an emergency lately from BUD Biliken to the taste and of course every HOLIDAY!.
I believe the list is at 325, give or take a spot or 2 in either direction.
Its actually very smart...the Supt will be using all of those people promoted to be used like toilet paper for the trial...have fun!
What number are they up to on the Sergeants and Lt list now with these new promotions ? FOP? PBPA? If u make that transparent you won’t be bothered with many phone calls. Common sense.

Dan Herbert isn't that competent, or brave. He represented two cops in two recent separate cases. They both ended up in federal prison. Maybe if the facts come out being
Escalante, McNaughton and Johnson classified the JVD shooting as justified, but Rahm covered up the tape solely so he can be re elected, maybe JVD has a shot at a fair verdict.
Wish the best for him and his family.
Rumor is the city can’t find a vendor for the next Sgt exam. Nobody wants to touch it including IOS. Instead of Fall 2019 I’m hearing 2020 or even 2021. Any truth to that ?
half of the street patrol has less than 6 yrs on job
Pass the toilet paper.
97 more Bozo's to do Stripper Ed's, and the mayors bidding....except the few who actually took BOTH parts of the test, and actually deserve the title, Supervisor. But they are greatly out weighed but the merit hacks, and cheaters.
CPD's immediate current needs are someone who has crime scene, crowd control/mob control experience, and exemplifies Leadership. How many of those do you think are getting promoted?....(cheep-cheep) I thought so.
Many of these Sgt's will see themselves as passing through on their way to their next merit promotion. All of these Lt.'s are the same no matter who they may be...I'm surprised they are making Detectives at the same time. We had about 6-7 in my class that slept through the academy, knowing they were in the next class of Sgt's. So all you dicks out there. When your handpicked Sgt's (and they all are) tell you they know detectives work, ask them how long they were detectives. Very few have put in more than 6 months and many more much less, like 6 weeks. There is a good chance that during those 6 weeks, they were downtown sniffing out a "good spot"
Welcome to CPD...To the Few who deserve it, congratulations! To the proud and arrogant merit cloutorious hacks, welcome to the machine...
Make me a sgt.and give me the booze!

Correct! And an officer on the list knows that too... however, You can’t call if you’re a retired guy with no life who is just wondering. A guy that can’t let go and still wakes up every morning wondering “what’s going on” on the job... please, enjoy retirement and put this nightmare behind you. Do it for your family.

Maybe, like everyone else the original commenter is tired of contacting FOP about updates of lists that should be available and transparent. Also, the person may want to know what others are guessing for the number since FOP clearly gives responses that vary based on the time of your call
True on SGT exam. My wife works at HQ as a civilian.

Watched Eddie and his son in the “marked” police vehicle is the prelude to no more unmarked detective vehicle the prototype is marked with “detective” in side same as Eddie “if marked is good enough for the superintendent it’s good enough for everyone!” It is a smart idea shows more police presence Eddie finally has a smart idea with a 15% clearance rate this will give detectives more street credibility and more visibility no more hiding finally this is sorely needed! With the gps they will also be assigned priority 1 jobs which will definitely help!

A sergeant supervises police officers. A lieutenant supervises sergeants.
OT: I like Eddie. A genuinely nice guy. When his “friends” embarrass his kindness with cheating on the lieutenant exam or a commander stealing his mom’s social security checks it makes me question his judgment.
28 FTOs,there are some districts where they have 2 PPOs to a FTO and some PPOs are riding with Sergeants. The FTO program in Chixago is a joke, FTOs try thier best to teach but some of the product is just plain unreachable and the department just won't fire them Wonder why nobody wants to be an FTO.

Why do you care? None of us care what the difference is between different supervisory positions at your job. Get a different hobby, or learn to use Google.

9/01/2018 08:59:00 AM
Spoken by someone who's not a supervisor, and not in one of the severely undermanned districts. We need more of everything, from Lt on down. Anyone who disagrees is confused or blinded by the fact that their south or west side district is flush with manpower at all levels. Meanwhile, the rest of us get to deal with unsafe conditions with 4 and 5 down cars, one supervisor on the street, and a backlog of 20+ jobs. Take a peek outside your little corner of the world and realize there are a bunch of other districts who don't get the manpower yours gets. I bet you "too many supervisors" whiners are the same ones constantly calling for supervisors on every job.
Incompetent bureaucrat Rahm buddy failed us attorney John lausch is out patrolling with EJ in an obvious Pr stint cooked up by Rahm and his media sycophants to show the peoples and folks he cares. When he is just using this as a trick to pander to south and west side criminals. He has to go. The fbi and justice department are a joke.

Nope not me Mr short bus. Haven’t called for a supervisor in well over a year. And I’m also not bitter that I’m not a supervisor because I didn’t take the test. I’m happy where I’m at. But what we need is more patrolman not supervisors. You whine about backlogs? Then code a few jobs. Oh, supervisors are above that right? Well genius, to get out of a backlog we need patrolmen not supervisors. Cause I don’t see to many supervisors even coding parkers. How much work do you really do every day? You want more supervisors so you can get more ducks. Who you fooling?

I know Burke used to be car "4" when he lived on 50th and Maplewood (or Artesian/Campbell?)
It was around Christmas time 1999-2001 and car "4" came on the air about a disturbance.
The dispatcher sounded shocked and said, "Car 4?"
In the background there was piano music and it sounded like a party. Being the 009th district and full of 20+yr olds, there was nonstop fake radio calls and other shenanigans.(This is car 14 and 1/2, come in squad!)
I miss young Policemen who were fun.

My thought was the opposite that's 238 bodies off the streets- as well as the academy staff that will be "teaching" them
The academy staff will be at the academy whether they are teaching or not, if the academy is full or empty

They have used promotional classes for manpower in the past. Most recent was the last Detectives class they held over for a week of "training" so they could be on Michigan ave during the 4th.

Why you want to know about their doodies?
I've been on the CPD for 20 years and I hate how assholes like you talk to citizens who are just asking a polite question. It's dickheads like you that give people a negative view of us by your demeaning attitude. You're a fucking tool. To the original poster (Not a cop) I'm sorry you got this kind of a response. I want nothing to do with losers like the one who was rude to you.

The problem is that it's likely a media troll looking for info, not just a random citizen. They toss out a seemingly innocent question and wait for the responses about how a lieutenant or sergeant doesn't do anything, especially lieutenant or sergeant X from Unit Y who always does some illegal, immoral, nefarious thing. Then they have a starting point for their next hit piece. If not, the answers he or she seeks can be easily found without resorting to asking a bunch of random people on an internet blog. Stupidity, ignorance, and laziness should not be rewarded. Why don't you get off your high horse and answer the question? Your apology didn't help them get their answer.
I wonder how many of the 90 Sgts will turn down the promotion
9/01/2018 05:12:00 PM
Doesn't really matter. Anyone who turns it down gets replaced by the next one on the list.
A sergeant supervises police officers. A lieutenant supervises sergeants.

A lieutenant is not a supervisor.

Watched Eddie and his son in the “marked” police vehicle is the prelude to no more unmarked detective vehicle the prototype is marked with “detective” in side same as Eddie “if marked is good enough for the superintendent it’s good enough for everyone!” It is a smart idea shows more police presence Eddie finally has a smart idea with a 15% clearance rate this will give detectives more street credibility and more visibility no more hiding finally this is sorely needed! With the gps they will also be assigned priority 1 jobs which will definitely help!

Hey SCC: Was watching the 10:00 news and was amused to see a report of Mr. Fenner patrolling with his son in a marked squad which had a Beat Tag labeled Car 3 and the title Superintendent emblazoned on the door like a jet fighter pilot.
Has Special Ed let his ego erode any common sense that he still had? Will gang members refrain from taking a pot shot at his squad while cruising thru the hood?
I remember years ago when the on duty Asst. Deputy Superintendent drove a blue Oldsmobile emblazoned Chicago Police Department Operations Command. The vehicle was nicknamed "the blue goose" back then. Should this newly marked vehicle be nicknamed "the Blue Bozo?" Perhaps a contest should be held by SCC to come up with a suitable moniker.
Sad part is that This new explorer sits parked at HQ 99% of the time. While we are using junk vehicles.

I agree with you “20 years”. I too have 20 on and I am also tired of the fucking jagoffs on this job. When an opportunity to be a fucking asshole presents itself, far too many coppers-not only Chicago-take full advantage. It’s almost like they get off on making people squirm, and it doesn’t matter if a citizen is a hard core thug or a 100% legit church going innocent person. All get treated EXACTLY the same.
Apologies to the citizen(s) asking legit questions
I heard Mr. Fenner Jr is gonna be in the next sgt’s class!!! 😂😂😂😂
The very first thing that they need to do is eliminate the XO position across the board and put the captains back on as watch commanders. The more redundant and useless position in the police dept if the XO.
Why the f does a Capt have to go out of his way to hunt down a Sgt for an ISR that gets kicked back from the audit unit...he doesn't do that for a case or arrest report. Just plain dumb.

City needs more Sgts to handle the growing mountain of paperwork in the complaint arena. And the Lt's, well...they don't need a reason for that. Political favors are enough reason. They have who they want at the top of the list, and when that is done, there will then be a new test.

Nope not me Mr short bus. Haven’t called for a supervisor in well over a year. And I’m also not bitter that I’m not a supervisor because I didn’t take the test. I’m happy where I’m at. But what we need is more patrolman not supervisors. You whine about backlogs? Then code a few jobs. Oh, supervisors are above that right? Well genius, to get out of a backlog we need patrolmen not supervisors. Cause I don’t see to many supervisors even coding parkers. How much work do you really do every day? You want more supervisors so you can get more ducks. Who you fooling?
9/01/2018 11:35:00 PM
Mr short bus? Cute attempt at an insult. Haven't called for a supervisor in over a year? Do you sign your own tow reports? Do you approve your own reports? No TRRs for you? You must work really hard. You didn't take the test because you know there's no point. You seem pretty unhappy for being happy where you're at. What we need is more officers AND supervisors. They're not called patrolmen anymore. I'm not whining about backlogs. I'm pointing out that they exist on a constant basis in shorthanded districts. You seem oblivious to this fact. Code a few jobs? Last backlog I dealt with, I coded 19 of the 25 jobs, and all in less than an hour. Let's see you knock out even two of those without wasting an hour. If people like you would code jobs in a timely manner, backlogs would be less frequent. I guess that's on your supervisors though. You don't see "to" many supervisors coding parkers? Maybe that has something to do with the extremely low priority of that job and the fact that there's no need to code it. It can sit all day. How much work do I do? Less than I should, and much more than you think. I want more supervisors for one simple reason: we need them. It has nothing to do with ducks or "40 days." It would be nice to get a day off once in a while though. If you honestly believe there are no districts that need more sergeants, you're misinformed or willfully ignorant of obvious facts. Based on the rest of the nonsense you posted, I'll assume the latter. Good luck with your streak of not needing a supervisor. I'm sure we all hope it continues indefinitely.

Presuming the validity of your questions' elements, no, not a "know it all", but, rather, a wannabe know it all.

Or is there some other intent(s) imbued within your query purpose(s)?

I've been retired for sometime. Back in the last century you knew your test score shortly after turning your test in. Sad that in the 21st century the powers that be can't do this. Where's the transparency? Rahm is dirtier then all his predecessors put together.
To the supervisor above, no officer gives a Danny if there is a backlog. The city doesn't seem to care since its allowed the department to go short staffed. So if you want to run around coding jobs because there's a rap go for it.
But no one cares.

Those were just examples of things I know you called a supervisor for, despite your claims. I never claimed to be overworked. I said we have a manpower shortage, because we do. It's a safety issue. That's my concern. Don't really give a shit about anything else. Keep trying though.

Why aren't our unions demanding that the test scores be provided immediately for the Scantron portion and any written portion within a set time frame. This whole SME thing needs to disappear, too much left open for cheating. Why are our unions so useless? Other FOPs have a set of balls, ours always seem to bought out the second they take office.

To the clueless:
I assure you that I care less than just about anyone if there's a backlog, if we're talking about coding jobs and keeping the board clear. The issue a backlog causes is that there's no one available to help when an officer needs an assist. Fuck the parkers, the alarms, the shots fired, the disturbances, etc. When you need help and no one can get to you, maybe you'll understand why backlogs and down cars are a problem. Maybe not, but I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, despite your apparent ignorance. As for running around coding jobs, it's not what I want to do, but sometimes that's the job.
Promotions for what? Doing there jobs can't be the reason. Must be political everything in Chicago is political "it's the Chicago way" It used to be the city that works now it's the city that doesn't work. Thank you democrats you are getting what you voted for, enjoy the fruits of your labor.

People called for the police even are due the service they called for - this should not be denied even if they left no name. Coding jobs like you describe is akin to fraud just like when companies use creative accounting. Some districts have been in backlogs for years since 2003, the first unofficial hiring freeze. Why do you care? It is what the City as a public policy wants. Disagree? Then call me out.
