Captain Lawsuit
A rumbling among the white shirts.
There are almost 20 lieutenants, already chosen and trained up to be captains and yet, Special Ed has announced a new application process for captain since three names are missing from the current list - Fenner-Johnson, Hall-Wysinger and Ward. There are others, but those are the ones Special Ed will be pushing.
The trouble is, every other list of captains from the past two or three rounds has been fully utilized prior to a new process being undertaken. In fact, a number of blatantly bad and incompetent captains were made just to prevent the possibility of them suing....and winning. That means there's precedent.
And that means some sort of lawsuit to delay things.

Word is they are gonna to take the remaining 18 names and put them automatically into the pool. No interviews needed. They will then supliment the pool with the likes of Fenner, Ward and Hall. Since the Captain pool is not a rank order pool, they can take anyone from the pool to promote. And guess which 18 won’t get pulled. How to avoid a lawsuit 101.
Make no more Captains. It’s a bullshit patronage job that drains our pension fund further.
Fuck then clown ass female Lt. They cheated on the test and if any of you Sergeants want to lawsuit their ass, lets all stand together and file a lawsuit as well. Those clowns stole a merit promotion, walk around like proud peacocks, and yet still want more.
RULE 14 them immediately
You can bet the house there’s a damm good chance the Supt wants his special people on the new list. Especially before he goes. But screw most of those Lts on the list. Many of them(like Barney Rubble)are double merit already and should be grateful. There’s very few that made it on their own.
They “bend” the rules to their liking. Period.
This is what happens when you take a civil service rank and change the personnel code to make it a meritorious rank. Blatant corruption from the very first class years ago. Highly competent and qualified lieutenants were eliminated from any consideration because they were not political favorites. Nothing has changed. A new promotional application will be initiated since there are now three who must be given the rank ahead of everyone on an already existing list. Corruption that is now open and notorious. The once great CPD has been destroyed. What a shame and a disgrace.
If you think that’s something the last batch of sergeants had to be the bottle of the barrel. They are totally lost.
Isn't Ed gone yet?
Do you think the Department would promote Garrido, Stoppa or Sesso? Never gonna happen even though the calls keep coming in to Riccio.
He has to get those cheaters one more bump before the consent decree monitors start looking at the promotional process.
Both IPRA and COPA told Ferguson to investigate ward who violated my rights , a white disabled senior citizen. Ferguson and Eddie Welch both refused to investigate. More to come. I am going to FBI.
I’m not a big proponent of the whole “sue them” philosophy that has taken over our city, but when it comes to the cheating Lt’s and the subsequent investigation that came up empty, something needs to be done. The real issue is, figuring out who was effected the most. I guess it won’t really be known until the current Lt’s list is finished. Then, those people who just miss because of the cheaters would be the ones that were effected the most. I would guess as things go, the people that scored around 175-210 on the list would probably have the most legitimate beef
Hall-Wysinger is the worst supervisor ever merited. This fools roll calls make us listen to stuff written on IClear notices everyday never offering one ounce of realthoughts on policing. Do is a favor and stay in your office or better yet try going on the street. Oh thats right, she demands someone drive her around anytime she wants to leave the office, which is almost never. Im hoping she makes captain just so someone else has to deal with her
Mr F must be shitting in his panties if this lt test fiasco is opened up federally. All this hacks getting made that other wise would be able to pass GED certification. Can't even read a pre-printed sheet on the podium. It's all about the image and the alphas.
Who were these crying Lt's clout that got them promoted?
More two bar knuckleheads who should still be wearing blue shirts.
Another failure by Super Fenner. What a p o s Loser
Captain in 025 is a big stroke. Just retire already everyone knows that when an inspector is in the district, it’s because someone requested them. Quit messing with us, let us do our job, and retire now!!!!!
Does anyone know if the “Ward” in the Lt scandal is the wife of Sgt ward in 016 ?
Supe has to start making his people in quick fashion. His career is coming to a close quickly with a new mayor and the KJ scandal is not helping his longevity.
Isn't Captain a spot so a Commander does not have to do one job a month. The Captain ends up doing one job a month. If they don't make Captains the street deputy will have to work cause the commander wont want to do shit lmao.
Captain should be a civil service ranks with a test.
Never could understand why you need all the supervisors. Is it because the rank and file do not know enough to do there jobs or is it that the rank and file can not be trusted to do their job. If either is true are more supervisors the answer. And if sergeants have to be supervised by a lieutenant how can the sergeants be qualified to supervise the blue shirts. If it’s not a question of actual supervising but passing down information couldn’t a civilian do the same thing cheaper and not dip into the pension.
It’s clear the training does not guarantee a promotion. Couldn’t be more clear in the document
So the group of cry babies about to sue should just get over it and start protecting the officers and fuck the brass
Plain and simple.
Call Aunt Rosie.
Make as many as needed and put them back on as watch commanders. Get rid of the useless XO position. We could also eliminate about 8-10 commander spots if we did that.
That explains the screams and sobs of pain coming from the lieutenants’ office in Area Central. JP ain’t getting the double bars anytime soon hahahaaaaaaaa
Political Merit Captains , useless position, drains pension fund .
Eddie boy is out of control period. I cant wait to see how crime rises up in the downtown area this holiday season.poor little children cant'figure out what is right or wrong. Plenty of jobs out there but certain people are just too too dumb it fill out an application. Huh and Who me are not acceptable.
im sure matt ckline will be getting priomoted rumor has it that mike Madigan the defacto ruler of ill, is now demanding it
I see no need for a Captain. None of them have a purpose. Waist of money
Boo who cry me a river all you over paid Lt.'s. If you had the call you would be using it.
Lawsuits.... it’s the Chicago Way.

Yeah...
And they sharpen them to a point according to their
whims and whichever way political winds blow in
order to stick them up an unclouted ass.
CPD... It ain't enough to survive the streets in this
God-Forsaken city, you have to navigate and survive
the wretched internal apparatus put in place to be a
stymie and stumbling block to every upright Policeman...
That this has been deliberately ignored is the greatest
tragedy and travesty of all.
How the unclouted "little guy" is made to carry the cross
because he doesn't belong to anybody in the political,
clerical or CPD "Royal Families" who work this job and
never have a bad day or a hard time because they're
precious and protected.
Everybody should have their turn at plowing the hard,
flinty, unproductive ground that is Policing here in Chicago
and do it for many years while exposed to the same dangers,
toils and snares the rest of everybody else has to be exposed to.
Kill Clout...
It's corrosive, corrupt, dangerous
and ultimately dehumanizing.
Fuck then clown ass female Lt. They cheated on the test and if any of you Sergeants want to lawsuit their ass, lets all stand together and file a lawsuit as well. Those clowns stole a merit promotion, walk around like proud peacocks, and yet still want more.

The communist I.G. Joe Ferguson ALREADY ruled on the lieutenants exam.
Go back to sleep.
I never thought i'd say this, but I'm so glad to be done with this circus in a few months. What's going on right now sickens me. The constant promotion of incompetent people is a joke. And those 3 women shoudl be ashamed of themselves, if, and that's a big IF, they had a conscience.
Lawsuit?
For what - not getting a fair shake for a merit ride?
History has shown that the courts have allowed the mayor and his appointees get their way no matter the cost to the plaintiffs.
The List as posted does not meet the obamaTaskForce 21st Century Policing key standard, therefore the List requires a significant restructuring. It would not be in the best interest of transparency to alter the current List by addendum.
So in fairness to all, the current List will be retired and a new improved 21st Century Representative Candidate pool with be established to meet the needs of building trust within the community.
Lists are tossed all the time and I’m not blaming anyone for being pissed.
Plenty good PO’s and Sgts are passed over ALL the time.
Welcome to our world again.
Want fairness, negotiate (or litigate) for a Captain Exam.
Rahm’s Right Man for the Right Time™️ gets the last word.
I agree with 12:16, fuck these guys and don’t make any more. Political spots, pure and simple. Too many chiefs not enough Indians.
scum promoting scum

It’s been over 2 years since the Lts promotions. If no lawsuits have been filed, the shops sailed
Actually there has been one files. It’s by Fenner for discriminationn in the promotional exams
Despicable!
Listen up -
It does not matter anymore who makes Captain - The department is ruined beyond repair.
Throw out the LIST now..
Both Johnson brothers should go to jail.
One for actual stealing and one for not turning the other in.

How can recruits look at the man leading the academy with Integrity...
--------------------
Then have LAPA step in and run the dept..
hopping all the tome and coming in late everyday. She is now qualified to be promoted. Can you say Capitan Wheeeeezzzie. All to together now Captain Wheeeeezzzie, has a nice ring to it don't you think. Only in Chicago, you just couldn't make this shit up. Nice force Fat Head and Rahm.
Rahm Please get rid of Johnson, for the members and the citizens. Any way we can get a vote of NO confidence for Johnson?
The lyin Hawaiian is retiring next week. What goes around comes around Ms Penny.
My Captain! My Captain!
A bunch of fuckin entitled clowns with do nothing jobs. Also ran losers not heavy enough to be made Commanders.
Dump them all to Lt., with Lts. pensions.
You know what......what?......This dept doesnt need Captains. This dept doesnt need 15+ Deputy Chiefs. It's just Blatantly STUPID, FISCALLY IRRESPONSIBLE, A WASTE OF MANPOWER, A HIDING PLACE FOR THE STUPID AND NON-STUPID CONNECTED MERIT LEGACY GOOD OLE BOY PROGRAM PEOPLE. 200X, what the fuck does that position add to the progression of police work, legitimate fucking police work! A sgt can do that job. Inspectors! The watch lt and field sgts are responsible for our appearance and job supervision. Why is a position paying 130k+ responsible for thiS! Two Lts no more than 3 per watch are responsible for the shift and with rotating days off all 3 are covered plus you have a street lt. A captain position can be in charge of the district ops and that is fucking it. A commander and a captain in each district is as useless as a watch on each wrist. It might look impressive but ITS FUCKING STUPID AND USELES, Da fuck you need two for! You don't. All I can do and its all I can do is shake my head for this dumb shit and certainly have no respect for the rank and who's in it that thinks their shit don't stink. Deputy Chiefs the same way. T double dub demoted Williams, fuck outta here. Camel Queen, 200x that stuttering ass mofo in 002, Jonhnson twin #1 who they let retire even tho kidney bean et all knew his ass was dirty and being investigated but promoted anyway, henny penny, all the mofo's they let retire even tho they signed off on the van Dyke paperwork, Sup stupe kidney bean who now it appears wants to fire Riamo after saying the shooting was justified..........
Ok rant is over. This shit with CPD is ridiculous.
They’re making a couple Captains today
Yep, all the usual terds. Can we flush this toilet already?
Why do we even need that rank? The pension should stop at Lytenant and how about if your merit for every merit bump you don't get the pension raise that would be "change we can believe in!"
Why do we even have a political rank of captain? What is the amount you have to pay to the alderman now? the going rate? Just a complete waste of a position and of course these spoon fed goofs get another generous pension dip, do we even have a pension board that will stop this? many years ago they were going to stop the "security specialist" dip, they get sergeants pay on rahms,the city clerks, the treasurers detail and unlimited overtime, then they get a sergeants pension for being a political hack that knows where to get coffee and clothes cleaned for their masters!
The only important captain is this 1:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdW1ZUq8eZM
There should be no pension higher than the civil service rank of Lieutenant.
Captain for the fire department.
Blatant reverse discrimination. Not a peep from the unions.
Wanna know how they will get extra spots?
AREA 4 reopen.
Has nothing to do with crime but you can scam up 4 more Exempts spots.
Area Chief
Area Saturation
Area mission
Area juvy whatever they call it
Anybody know what is happening with the desk dollies hidden in the court section at 51st and Wentworth? (they closing up soon)
That SGT on the court side bely is so shiny i don't think rain or snow has touched it.
And the Uniformed Mom who walks around the area all day and is never in court what does she do? She has that CAPS vibe all over her.
Poor judges ....
CPD Merit Headquarters = 10 district
special ed is special indeed

Have they filled the Deputy Chief in charge of Office Snacks position yet?????
It's our time now!
Father Pfleger has anointed himself the great ‘Mikado’ of all things policing in the Chicago area. He will decide which police are arrested in all of the Cook County. And yes....he will decide who gets promoted In the CPD.
How is 25 right now is it worth it to transfer from west side district ?
While some of the names on here make me cringe slow down on the whole “we don’t need captains” thing. Continuity is a big deal...for better or worse you know what is expected and have stable direction rather than a different story depending on which LT is calling the shots on a particular day.
I am grateful every day to be retired. This job has become a cesspool of rottenness. None of it bothers me anymore. I have a new life far removed from this. It no longer affects me and that is a wonderful feeling. I feel for the officers who are locked in and have to face these conditions everyday. Leave as soon as you can.
How does it feel to have a promotion stolen from you? Karma is a bitch, bitches.

Soon, they just made her commander of 016, if they move on it too soon people are gonna know it's not all legit.
010 is led by triple merit. Quite a goof. Did little guy fill the district up with other merit clowns. Glad to be in D Unit. You poor souls working for absolute dumb asses in the districts.
Just stay out of trouble and document everything one of the clowns ask you to do that is not ethical. Tell them to do it.
Trust no one.
Anything that keeps the cheaters from advancing or slows their advance is a wonderful thing.
Did they make the captains yesterday? I cannot find a fax on it?
Back in 90’s CPD was down to less than 10 Captains and things ran smooth .
Now they have captains as inspectors , one did not know district boundaries, how to change radio zones , how to log on a PDT .
You can’t make this crap up , believe he was part of HDO

STAY AWAY! No place to be until the king gets moved.
They have to use merit because no one would ever pass the test. Looks like a meeting of the Silver Sneakers group at the Y.
Given the age and shape of this class many will not be collecting those big underserved pensions very long. Heart attacks and strokes just waiting to happen. Way too many donut runs for the entire lot. Bet the rank and file are proud of this group. No wait just read all the comments looks like their merit protection will not prevent the rank and file hate.

Was a great place until Escamerit and the doofus Captain Harris ruined morale across the board. Stay away until new commander is in.
