Trial Break

The judge has been reserving Fridays for closed door sessions with opposing counsel to further hash out jury instructions.

The defense hasn't rested, so figure two more days or so next week. That brings closing arguments at midweek and the possibility of 12-hour days being implemented at that time (03, 04, 05 October?)

We had forgotten the Chicago Marathon is on tap for 07 October and Columbus Day is 08 October. Is Gaughan planning (hoping?) to have a verdict in before then?

And has anyone considered Cubs riots???

Cubs riots??? Will you people stop thinking that everything is a riot... The cubs win is not a riot. NATO was not a riot. When Obama won was not a riot. When the hawks won was not a riot. When the video cam out was not a riot. Rodney Kong in LA was a riot. Ferguson Missouri was a riot. If he is found guilty it won’t be a riot. If he’s found not guilty it still won’t be a riot... it will be hipsters downtown... that’s it.

I’m guessing the judge will give the jury a 4 day Columbus Day weekend and closing statements will be Tuesday. Heard witnesses will be on the stand Wednesday possibly Thursday. Doubt the judge will have the jury ready to deliberate during the holiday weekend. I’m sure he’s also fully aware of the Chicago Marathon where resources are stretched very thin. It’s seems like the brass are more relaxed, so maybe they’re aware of the possible time line. Just a guess. Doesn’t seem like this judge does much on Fridays.

So I guess No days off in the near future...Chicago is fast approaching the status of a tinder box, and the perfect storm may be approaching. The city has always been lucky in my opinion. Maybe even blessed. Let us hope that that luck continues. The rank and file are key here. I hope they are rested, and prepared for the evil that may be loosed.

Everyone knows that most of the brass doesn't know how to handle crowds, or subdue them once they get violent. A large show of force will work for a short time, but once the protestors realize how restrained the Po-Po is, the mayhem can, and will really begin.

The biggest question is will JVD take the stand? I have watched the entire trial on CLTV. My view is even stronger that JVD actions were not only justified and legal but required. I know a jury trial was a big decision and if you are going for hung then I personally believe that there is not enough evidence to unanimously convict beyond a reasonable doubt. That being said all 12 will have to agree. I dont know if JVD taking the stand will help the outcome, but think that full Not Guilty may only be possible if the jury hears from his mouth that he was fearful for his and others life as well as stopping a felony offender from escaping arrest. This is a decision that is made by JVD at the advice of attorney. The burden of proof is on the State and they have not proven their case. A defendant does not have to testify, but in todays age it may be the only path to Not Guilty. A hung jury will only put Kimm Foxx in the drivers seat and you know she is not stopping until she gets her pound of flesh.

Agreed. Conviction, acquittal, or hung jury, they’re going to act a fool because of the opportunity. And, when they do, and shit gets destroyed, and lives are lost, the storefront rev’runs, the fake catholic men of the cloth, the usual agitators, and the SJW’s will all say it’s because the “eternally aggrieved” have been persecuted, picked on, and oppressed. The MSM will present it that way, and, as usual, no one in a position of power will call them out because they, themselves , will be up for election soon too.

Off the topic a bit, but the nut job female Detective who got pinched twice for shoplifting and screwed her way to detective to servicing some bosses is now a civilian. On 18 Sept she decided to resign rather than be fired. She should have been fired when she shot at her boyfriend in thier condo, or when she smashed the crap out of her friends car in a drunken rage and then drove away. She had a friend in IAD who tried to intimidate the victim but he got spanked because the victims relative was a heavy weight Sgt.

Ferguson...

===========

Ferguson was a tinderbox waiting for any excuse to explode. It didn't really matter much if the guy the cop killed deserved it or not. You should read the DOJ report on Ferguson some time. It is a real eye opener. It is amazing to me the riots didn't start a lot sooner. People are a lot more tolerant (or lazy maybe) than you might think. But once you get them riled up enough, things can go wrong in a lot of directions for no real reason. The citizens of Ferguson had a lot of good reasons to be displeased with their city government and especially its police department. That displeasure does not excuse the riotous conduct of a relative handful of people, but it does make it more understandable. I think if the situation had been handled better the worst of what went wrong could have been avoided in Ferguson.

I personally don't expect much in the way of serious trouble, unless police overreact to minor incidents.

pay attension to your pension because Memphis tn p.d adopted this plan

Under the "Hybrid" model, the Pension Fund sets up two departments: the traditional pension model and the new one with no employer liability.
To switch to the department with no future withdrawal liability, a company has to pay off all its current withdrawal liability, either in a lump sum or on a payment plan.
For example, over 10,000 UPS Teamsters in New England were switched into the new plan in September 2012. UPS had to pay off its withdrawal liability. But the Fund allowed them to stretch their payments out over 50 years.
The move saved UPS money, because as part of the deal the company's contribution rate was reduced to $6.20 per hour and will be frozen at that rate for 10 years. If UPS had stayed in the old pension plan, its contributions would be about $11.56 per hour presently.
The switch could affect future accruals and benefits, because under this new "hybrid" plan, each year the fund will evaluate the withdrawal liability and adjust pension accruals to keep the employer's withdrawal liability at zero.

The New England Pension Fund now has 70% of all employer contributions going to the new hybrid fund. The withdrawal liability payments from UPS and other employers go to the old fund, to help pay members’ pensions.
Under the Hybrid plan, members' pension accruals and benefits can go up or down each year.
That's because every year, the new "hybrid" plan evaluates withdrawal liability and adjusts members' pension accrual to keep the withdrawal liability at zero. If stock market returns are high and pension fund assets are growing, members' accrual will go up.
As part of the New England deal, UPS Teamsters were guaranteed that there would be no cuts (or increases) in their pension accrual rate for ten years. The present accrual is $248 per month for each extra year of service, so UPS Teamsters can retire with good pensions.

Pay Attention to Your Pension
The Hybrid plan model is gaining momentum. Members need to understand it and keep their eyes open. The Central States Pension Fund has also adopted this model.
Some pension trustees say this new model is win-win-win, for the employers, the members, and the fund itself.
That remains to be seen. In the short term, the new model should help stabilize underfunded Teamster plans.
Over the long term, zeroing out withdrawal liability every year will tend to keep pension benefit levels from increasing, unless the union bargains increased employer contributions.
The Hybrid Plan may help convince some employers who want to eliminate withdrawal liability from trying to break out of Teamster plans, but it won't change the fact that corporations will always prefer cheap 401(k)s to good union pensions.

Don't you think that depends on the verdict? For some this will just be an excuse to loot, burn, and try for another ghetto lottery pay off. The more militant segments will be pushing their agenda, whining about only one black juror and mobilizing numbers from near and far to get the attention of the national media. Others might be seeking revenge. With the cast of clowns likely to be involved it certainly has the potential to be a clusterfuck. Perhaps there will be more than one group "doing their thang". I could see hundreds of young thugs converging on the Mag Mile in the name of social justice while others "protest",destroy and loot closer to home. One certainly can't depend on the common sense and sanity of people like this and there will be fake clergy and so called activists that will try to stir it up. And the media is always a player in fanning the flames.

"When Obama won was not a riot. "

I don't know who you are or where you were when BO won.
I was there. I also was there each time the Bulls won.

The only difference between the above events and Baltimore
is the above events got no TV coverage.
The above events were deemed "happy celebrations" by
those in charge: DemoCraps and the media they control.

To me looting, shots fired at police, fist fighting with police,
burning of Asian, Jewish & Arab businesses,
etc on the south & west sides was a riot.

However, if it is not reported in the media, IT NEVER HAPPENED!

Fodder for closing arguments / jury hiatus:
btw- most French police are not allowed to carry duty firearms and are now rethinking the policy.

RTL - 28 Sep 2018
“Residents of the French city of Rodez are in shock following the fatal stabbing of police chief Pascal Filoé who was murdered in front of the city’s town hall on Thursday morning.
The attack took place at 10 am on Thursday morning and saw a man described to be in his forties attack the police chief with a knife stabbing him three times, broadcaster RTL reports.”

“The attack is just the latest act of violence toward a police officer in France. Some fatal attacks on police officers have recently been related to radical Islamic terrorism as was the case with the murder of an officer last year on Paris’ famous Champs Elysees, the fatal stabbing of police Commissioner Jean-Baptiste Salvaing and his wife in 2016 and the murder of Col. Arnaud Beltrame earlier this year.”

“Attacks against officers have also seen an increase from “youths” in various areas across the country. In one case on New Year’s Eve, a brutal attack on a female police officer in the Paris suburb of Champigny-sur-Marne was caught on video showing a mob of young men cheering and kicking the officer in the head.”

I would always extend professional courtesy to another officer but I hate to say that it irks me that family members of officers think they have to right not to abide by the law. The whole idea that I can talk on the cell phone because my brother is the police is absurd. Instead of expecting to get beaks the officerin the family should educate the family members on how to drive legally and not to expect breaks.
