Where's the Pix Google-me?
For a guy who can't wait to post the pictures of the same guns over and over again (it's true - check the inventory tags), he isn't tweeting any of these pictures:
- At least five people have been robbed on the CTA's train system downtown since July 18th, according to a community alert issued by Chicago police on Tuesday evening. Yet, despite having five muggings to choose from and security cameras throughout the transit system, investigators did not release any images of the offenders.
Police said between one and three attackers have been using “force and intimidation” to rob CTA passengers. Some victims were threatened. Others were punched in the face and body before valuables were ripped from their hands or pockets, police said.
Hundreds and hundreds, maybe thousands of cameras, all over the CTA, and not a single image of a single attacker posted anywhere to warn riders of a particularly violent gang of criminals. The Department did describe them accurately for some reason, but no pictures.

Victims sue CTA. Try it
Who needs pictures when all the details have been shared publicly?
"Police described the offenders only as male, black, 15- to 21-years-old and 5’6” to 6-feet tall."
Now really... How could an image(s) given to the public shed any more details on the matter then what is already known? All the info to make progress is already revealed!
"Police described the offenders only as male, black, 15- to 21-years-old and 5’6” to 6-feet tall."
Yup! Matter resolved.
No pix? Someone that they want to protect? Jamal maybe? Come one, let's see the pics!
The truth is racist.
that would mean (GASP) crime is not down?
Scare the tourists? No way.
My motto has long been "If I have to take the CTA, I don't go" It has prevented me from violating the no concealed carry on the CTA, and my other motto " don't leave home without my trusty 92".
Channel 7 repeatedly said a couple days ago it was an *gasp* african american and showed a picture. I couldn't believe my eyes
Back in the day many of those cameras were shills, empty domes with no camera inside.
Where is the CTA detail these days? The deadlocked police are hiding in the pedway vacant stores and trying to make acquaintances with the girls at the State Lake CTA stop.
You can be damned sure the first time a citizen concealed carrier blows the head off some “poor misguided Yute” on the red line, the film will make the next news cycle and Kimeesha will throw the book at him or her.
It's a shame that of ALL the alleged main stream media in Chicagoland...
It appears that only CWB and SCC actually print ALL the details regardless of political leanings.
Is it because they’re “community” thugs?
cta needs a lot of Bernie getz copycats.
9 Month Survial Plan SpecialEd is told what to do, Grootie sends him a stack of and relies on GoogledHeinie to toe the line.
Everyone is still on edge anticipating some big changes to come.
Only the best pandering ass-kissers will remain.
Posturing and keeping a lid on out of control crime is essential.
Highlighting SpecialEd’s and Cook Co failures only adds to bad optics for a newly installed and historic mayor.
An opposite example is how NYC and the NYPD have been slamming absentee and denier Bozo DiBlasio recently.
And if y’all is wonderin’ Grootie MacLightLoafer is Lapaloozoing anywhere new Chicago this weekend.
CTA website says there’s over 32,000 cameras throughout the system thanks to spending $33 million in upgrades. Please do the math on that one, for the sake of an unsafe transit system, for a transit system full of financial woes, bloated high paid internal administration, low ridership and plenty of re-building and extensions to accommodate that low ridership.
Moe Larri LightLoafer doesn’t particularly like the untrusted Po’lices exposing photos of the not yet formally accused violent feral criminals anyway.
Voters were fooled into thinking a scholarship educated juris doctorate, former assistant to a US District Attorney was going to be tTHEE answer to the city’s uncontrollable crime.
In what should have been a priority Job 1 now is not even being addressed.
Oh look, another alligator in the pond...

PER LORI
NO black faces on Wanted poster!
ADD NO INVESTIGATIVE ALERTS
LORI has her social justice warrior going around to different city buildings and going over what the employees do.
seems her staff have NO clue what a large chunk of city workers actually do.
From the park district,street and Sans and of course the police Dept.
All the building receive about a months notice to clean up and fix the ailing roach infested buildings. The monitors ask very stupid question like how many person work in building? They never ask what you need to do your job better.
so thanks GROOT for the new paint job at the station (sarcasm)
I believe they used to hang train robbers in the 1800s. Now they get an I-bond, reduced charges and probation at best. Thank you Kim Foxx, Toni Preckwinkle and all the other “stakeholders” in Cook County.
Predators roaming the CTA is not news. They've been doing that my whole life and I'm fairly sure they were doing it before I was born. One of the problems is if we manage to catch one of these jackals, the poor victim gets to shit in the police station, hour after hour waiting for us to get our reports, the detectives to show up and then the ASA's to come by and interview the victim. I was working special one night and we managed to catch two guys that just beat and robbed a guy. Early in our 2200 start time watch. The victim was visibly irritated when I gave him a ride home at 0930 at just how long this ordeal took to wrap up. Really? 9 hours to process a robbery committed on the CTA? If I were the victim, I would have asked everyone that interviewed me like 4 times, is this the first time you assholes have ever done this? WTF is taking so long? I'm supposed to be home sleeping and you've held ME prisoner all night asking me the same damn questions over and over again. WE're on the clock getting paid, these victims are on their own time and after we've victimized them a second time, we wonder why no one wants to prosecute? Then there's the court appearances. Of course we love them, we get paid, the victim? No, if he's a real person he or she has to miss work and spend time at that damn court.
You want to know one of the reasons the crime rate is so high? Because our system makes it incredibly traumatic for the victims to get these monster in jail.
So let me give the dummies a plan for the Belmont station. Everyday there are crimes at that particular station right. Everyday. Why not a permanent detail of 2 outside station one inside and 4 more to ride the trains three tops both ways continually. Bet crimes would stop in a week. Yea that's a lot of manpower but there are a lot of crimes in that area what better way to stop it. Take tow from every heavenly policed areas they won't be missed. At the very least the taxpaying residents in the Belmont Red Line station area deserve a safe place. Also how about passing an ordinance that crimes on or about CTA property carry an automatic doubling of any sentencing. Hey you got to start somewhere.
Those security cameras are racist!
Mass Transit Unit has it covered
Media always put that so they dont have to put in descriptions. All the time.
Virtue signal by omission. They always release descriptions. Story always reads 'did not release "detailed description'... so we get "teens" "robberd" etc.. They must teach it in journalism school?!
Facts in stories are an act of bigotry and opression.

It’s very irritating when our trustworthy news media goes out of their way to make certain ‘communities’ look normal. We Know who is constantly creating this mayhem ( even though there is never a description given or a video/still photo distributed). Yet, when you’re looking for safety answers, the media shell game spins into overdrive with its optics of ‘normal’ community members attending Lollapooza, eating ice cream at the beach to stay hydrated, riding scooters, shopping for back-to-school supplies, eating at Taste of Chicago, etc.
Has anyone successfully sued CTA?
My husband was beaten at the Jarvis El last month. The detective just got back to him and told him that the cameras weren’t working. Go figure...

So, are you now a conservative?
A few lawyers told me crime victims can't sue CTA.
