A Reminder
- A man died two days after a car he was in crashed while trying to evade police in Austin on the West Side.
About 8:50 p.m. Thursday in the 5100 block of West Chicago Avenue, police tried to stop a Chevrolet Monte Carlo for a traffic violation when it took off westbound on Chicago Avenue, Chicago police said. The car crashed into a Chevrolet Equinox and later into a pole before coming to a stop, police said. The driver of the Equinox, a 58-year-old woman, and the passenger, a 56-year-old woman, were taken to the West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park where their conditions were stabilized, police said.
The driver of the Monte Carlo was able to get out of the car and run from police, but the passenger, Geremiah Staples, 19, was taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, police said. Staples was pronounced dead at 9:34 p.m. Saturday at Stroger Hospital, the medical examiner’s office said.
Just stop.

Well.... that escalated quickly...
I’ve been preaching this to anyone and everyone while explaining the ramifications that go along with pursuits coupled with the fact that the criminal public and media despise us. I understand that new officers want to work, but please educate yourselves on what is presently occurring and the people running the show.
Just dumb!
You can’t fix stupid...even on our side.
Yep. The bad guy is blameless.
OT: 1of2 So to steal a phrase from the EJ, "I have more questions than I do answers." WTF is going on in the 007th district? So first event last week there is a Shotspotter event with multiple shots being fired. 765 close enough to almost on view it and calls for more cars. Police arrive and witness points out the house to where an offender ran into. Moments later a victim arrives claiming she was shot at and that her brother may be shot and in that same house. Under Sgt. and Tact Lt. supervision, officers believing they have exigent circumstances make forced entry after offender refuses to open door and attempts to barricade. Police get in and make arrest and find the handgun used in the Aggravated Discharge/Attempt Murder. All good, right? Sure, of course, except for this tidbit of information. The WC, LT C.M. a self proclaimed attorney forgets what job he's doing and decides to play defense attorney and judge. He chastises these hard working officers after watching the BWCs. Openly alleges that they did an H/I and that the search inside the house was unlawful. Refuses to approve PC. One bigger problem for LT C.M. though. The detective working the case calls it in and receives felony approval for Agg. Discharge from a Felony Review Supervisor. LT C.M. is beside himself and is ready to throw the coppers under the bus. He calls Felony Review and basically attempts to talk the ASA out of approving charges citing an unlawful search. The CCSAO is astonished and can't believe what she's hearing and tells him "no, charges already approved." So now we have felony charges approved without PC yet approved by LT C.M. Ultimately, the detective who actually has a set, rips into the WC and convinces him to approve PC. Unfuckingbelievable!! But it gets worse in the 007th district...continued
OT: 2of2 Thor Soderberg, a Chicago police officer was shot and killed on July 07th 2010 while in the police lot at 61st and Racine. I have to mention Thor’s death because of the following. The other night a “10-1” is given out on Zone 6. Officers assigned to GEU South at 61 Racine encounter a subject inside the police lot lurking amongst the personal vehicles of the officers. The subject is approached by a GEU Sgt who has just finished working 30+ hours from an incident the night before and is about to get in his car and go home. The subject shoves or batters the Sgt causing injury and then attempts to disarm the Sgt. Another officer who was hoping to go home after an extended 30 hour tour goes to assist and the subject tries disarming him as well. The subject breaks loose and flees. The officers radios are dead because of the aforesaid extended tour the night before and have to call 911. Assist units arrive and subject is located and arrested. Here’s where it all goes south - The arrival to the 007th district. In summary, the subject played the “I’m mental” card and the on duty Sgt of GEU and the 007 WC, LT T.G. bought it hook, line and sinker. The involved Sgt and officer are so spent and ready to fallout from not sleeping in 48 hours they have no fight in them and wave the white flag of surrender, if just to get home and get some rest. Clearly these poor guys aren’t thinking rationally and should not have even been required to stay. The “leadership” should have allowed them to go home and sleep for a few hours and then return before attempting to tackle this, but that never crossed their minds because the GEU Sgt. takes the lead, looking for the easy way out and with the full approval of LT. T.G. is RWOC and then brought by the wagon to the hospital run for an evaluation. The subject’s brother later the next day confronts another GEU officer and claims that his brother bragged about whipping the Sgt. And PO and got released without charging. What has this department been riddled to? Nine years ago one of our own was gunned down in this same lot. Thor Soderberg too, was trying to get home to his family, but never made it. And now nine years later, we have a situation that could've been equally devastating, and no one bats an eye. What the living fuck is going on? Have all supervisors been castrated and indoctrinated to buy into this CIT bullshit to the expense of their own officers? Shame, shame, shame on LT. T.G. for her ineptness and her overall lack of empathy shown to the officers. “Pardon me, while I close my door to you all and call my husband and ask him what I should do.” And this ladies and gentlemen is what passes for leadership in 2019 CPD. Please look out for yourself and your partners, especially while in the confines of the 007th district. Buses running full speed and not stopping.
They told us over 15 years ago, no chases.
Errybody drive Chevies!!!
Those that fail to heed deserve what they get.
Nice order of posts today, SCC. One of the questions on that FTO test was about the paperwork necessary for the second vehicle during a pursuit. If an FTO is in a pursuit with PPOs, I'd suggest the proper paperwork is a PAR form.
This must be 015. I'm nervous to think about which Sgt handled this.
If you're doing traffic stops for anything other than to get your VRI #'s you're doing this job wrong. If we were smart as a department we'd stop doing traffic stops period and let the citizens reap the rewards of having a lawless city. But alas, the 2 year wonders need their activity to get to wear those skinny jeans!
Mayor Lightweight! there you have it! Your new Police Department!
The young guns need to see a few of their contemporaries fired, sued and/or thrown in prison.
It will stop eventually.
Don't chase anybody. Let the Midget Mayor's elite body guard detail chase the bad guys.
As a veteran Officer I often tell the young bucks that if a car they attempt to pull over flees to sing to themselves the hit song from the movie frozen...Let it go, Let it go. This conditions the young officer to reach his retirement healthy and in one piece.

This is the most incredible post I have read in a long time, thank Almighty God that Sgt is OK what is going on with our management structure no wonder why no one respects any of them starts with a gold stars starts with Eddie all the way down all of them need to go all the fish stinks from the head down look at this incredible God bless the police amen !
How many more accidents do coppers have to be involved? How many more civil suits directly at them do they want to have remember the city will not indemnify you for civil suits get it through your thick millennial skulls. The only reason to use the blue lights and sirens is if there is a call of an officer or a police family that needs assistance other than that shut that shit off it’s over with turn on your radio, enjoy your cuppa coffee, eat a nice meal watch Netflix other than that what is wrong with you people?
007th District Warrior, just because you “believe” you have exigency circumstances, doesn’t mean you actually have exigency circumstances. If there is no hot pursuit, and it is pieced together as you say it was- what was committed was EXACTLY a H/I.
In taking the time to get a search warrant approved- no evidence would have been lost, and the offender would have not made his escape. Surround the house and type the warrant- believe it or not that’s been done before. He can’t flush the gun.
But just because you “believe” something doesn’t make it right. I’m sure your kid also “believes” in the Easter bunny and Santa, similar in truth to your beliefs about the 4th amendment.
However, nice job getting the gun and bad guy. In the end, what for?
It was not 015. It was a summer mobile unit that chased into 015 from 011. Summer mobile sgt's handled it.
Another one bites the dust!

Correction, boyfriend, not husband
Felony murder charges approved?
but the passenger, Geremiah Staples, 19, was taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition
---
to what room do I send the flowers?
OT: 2of2 Thor Soderberg
---
put a hold on him. Simple. Simple. Handle it the next day.
You live like a criminal (run from police), you die like
a criminal. It comes from the top down. Of course,
the 19 yr old was an innocent passenger. Maybe the
lawsuit should be directed at the car owner, who was
engaged in illegal activity, leading to the death.
.
What kind of journalist ends every sentence with "police said"
Lt CM of 007 is a stroke and will throw any hard working copper under the bus.
please you act like all these officers are still chasing. They mostly likely let them go and the idiot continued to drive reckless. Why dont we just make an order not to stop any vehicles
Was this the summer mobile unit? The captain said it was a good chase at summer mobile roll call, I was shocked when he said that bullshit
The police should not decide if a felon is too insane to charge, the courts decide if a felon is too insane to convict.
RWOC isn't forever. I say go re-arrest the goof again and pursue the original charges.
I just don’t get it.
Giving 101% to catch up to a community tolerated, disobedient feral mutt behind the wheel.
Just nonsense and for what, a trip to traffic court, maybe an affordable bond felony misdemeanor RWOC and an honorable mention?
To the affected: Grow up and read the current trends pertaining to big city politics of restorative justice.
The above posts from 007 illustrate the incompetence and terrible leadership that some bosses possess. Once again for those who do not listen: Answer your calls. Drop paper. Arrest on signed complaints where the victim is captured on BWC pressing the arrest. During all events, back up and assist your fellow officers. I believe that is all.
Hey I got an idea, bid out of 007! Why the hell would anyone want to work in that ghetto?
Last year a younger officer from Zone 1 topped out at 99 MPH down Montrose Ave. Pursuing an SUV traffic violator from Cicero to Narragansett.
At the end of it all MJ on Zone 1 asks "Should we maybe pull a pursuit ticket?" Seconds later after realizing how much distance was covered a Supervisor responds with "Ya, You better."
From Cicero to Narragansett, kid out raced a 767 on approach to O-hare. Now that's dedication for a blue card.
(OT) What type of people we do this oh look at the picture just like Chicago is very own, the new mayor says she’s going to have a big talk about race how about you tell your people to stop being violent that would be a start stop blaming the police also Chicago mayor you’re just taking office and you’re already talking nonsense;
Off-duty FDNY firefighter attacked by teens after defending elderly couple, cops say
https://www.foxnews.com/us/off-duty-fdny-firefighter-attacked-by-teens-after-defending-elderly-couple
Looks like the same people and folks that have come downtown and ruined it will be coming again massively does Laurie have any kind of solution for all of this? Bets are she has nothing to say.
Didn’t know about the first incident but I agree with the comments about the second incident where the offender was RWOC after trying to disarm two officers. How the fuck can we just let that guy go?? Unfucking believable what this department has become.
No pity on the hard heads still getting
in the peoples an' folkses bidness by
insisting on doing traffic stops and
by inserting themselves into instances
where community members are very loudly,
vividly and colorfully working out their
angst amongst each other...
Respond safe and intact after the fact...
Drop freight train-loads of glorified paper.
Affix copies of said glorified paper to the
corresponding body-bag being carried off by
the body-snatchers.
Make every useless notification on the notification tree.
Keep yourselves safe, unharmed, uninvolved, un-aggravated,
un-jackpotted, undoxxed, un-ruined, un-bankrupted and
un-imprisoned...
Police Like You Have No Friends.
Then?
Look.
Point & Laugh.
Leave.
They'll hate you even more for escaping them
and what they have planned for you, your family,
loved ones and friends.

Hey stupid, the post states the victims brother was in the same house as the offender and possibly shot too
Here's a bit of good news:
It looks like some regular folks in and around Minneapolis are now doing honest crime reporting on Somalian mob violence, and the blogs seem similar to Crime in Wrigleyville and Boystown, SCC.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/05/information_slowly_emerging_about_pipewielding_mob_of_somali_youths_who_attacked_people_waiting_for_light_rail_train_in_minneapolis_last_friday.html
Some Somalian "youths" were apparently attacking light rail commuters near the University of Minnesota. Of course the local, state and national Lib media will bury such a story because Somalians are always presented as model citizens bring the joys of DIVERSITY and the new shining star Afro Islamists SJC warrior Congresswoman who hates everything American.
So much in our Chicago, so much in Lib Blue State urban American doesn't work. The Fake news Lib media doesn't work, neither does the pathetic Cuckservative, Neo Conservative false opposition.
But SCC and Crime in Wrigleyville and Boystown, SCC, Hey Jackass works.
Let's encourage other brave, honest regular citizens to learn from our local crime blogging success and start their own similar blogs.
OK, so not everything is bad, getting worse.

That will change soon when the new rollout of police duties comes out soon,the retired guys will have the opportunity to come back and work inside freeing many of the desk dollies to hit the streets where they belong,and 1 of the duties will be a car 24/7 doing station security in the lots and that is welcomed. Lori has the list she is working fast her chief of staff claussen (the pickle guy) knows his way around cpd and there are well over 1,000 total inside spots the secretaries with guns making 6 figures will be changing and soon target date is 01Jan2020. The pay for the retired coppers will be $32.75 per hour no overtime, no benefits watch how quickly the jobs are taken.
Also the inspection division is being beefed up, and you will see more inspectors on the streets which is also needs, lastly look what Lori said "More police will be out of their cars," which means you will be walking and talking like old school, guess that millennial staying fetal, fuck this job movement will be ending, or you will be offered a resignation appointment.

Nice, comment of the night. You brought me a smile and think back of the dumb shit i did when i was new on the job in the ghetto
Does anyone know how badly the pole was damaged ?
In response to “hey stupid”....... So let me get this straight, a “victim” shows up later and claims that her brother MAY be in the house- without firsthand knowledge. The original poster said “MAY” be in the house
The original poster never said he was ACTUALLY found to be in the house- if he was, I’m sure he would have mentioned that, since the OP mentioned a gun was recovered, you’d think he’d mention he also saved the victims life.
You keep kicking in doors for what some shitbird thinks may have happened, STUPID, and I’ll keep my job.
Some people are thick as a brick and can’t get it through their heads.
Make some of the useless “special” house mice patrol these lots to keep them safe and secure.

Hey stupid, the original post states a victim showed up “moments later”, without watching the bwc I don’t know how long that was. Yes, the post said the brother “may” have been in the house and possibly shot too, and there was a shotspotter hit, and a Sgt almost on viewed the shooting so the shots fired were bonafide. The post also stated the officers “believed” they had exigent circumstances. So who the fuck do you think you are to second guess them? You weren’t there. The officers will be fine, no home invasion here as they likely entered thinking they were going to save a “victim”. Shitbird or not, the officers should be commended for their work. Obviously the felony review supervisor agrees too, asshole.
Lt CM of 007 has always backed working coppers and always called out dog asses and idiots.
Keep doing police see where it gets you!!
Clearly you didn't like and didn't understand what Lt CM was telling you. You may not like the message but he wants to make sure that you have a job on CPD so that you don't have to go back to your loss prevention gig at $12/hour.
I'll say this again and again,don't car chase,don't foot chase,don't even stop anyone. This is a new police department. The old ways of doing law enforcement are dead and gone. Some need activity in order to work VRI. Fuck that shit. Stay safe and God Bless !
Can't wait to retire from this SHIT HOLE

It aint that easy to bid out if one has less than 8 years OTJ...
Old Retired W/C. Just don’t do it unless a police officer is shot. Virtually impossible to construct an explanation which would satisfy a General Order which virtually prohibits chases.

Doesn’t Geu have a Lt or several in that building ? They work for an Area Deputy Chief and XO Commander Where were they ? Disarm a cop ? Weren’t they notified ? CPIC sent something out ? Involved officers and Sgts have a voice too. Where was street Deputy ? Why put all the blame on 007 ? Sounds like more to the story as usual that the original poster knows. Sounds like a post from Someone with a recent gripe ?
Sgts in 015 are completely incompetent!

If the guy is a bonified mental then you check him in end of story. Didn’t we learn from the 002nd district incident with the Jets not to just lock up a mental just because we want to win?? Or the 025th district incident where a mental was arrested and charged with agg batt to police and the coppers ended up paying punitive. If it’s a mental then it’s a mental. They will then petition it. Don’t charge a mental
Just to get even. It sucks it’s a disarming incident but don’t get hit punitively. He’s in custody, nobody got killed and now it’s time to do the right thing. Sorry if you think it’s unpopular but I’ve been jammed up by several coppers who act like idiots.
