No Area 4 or Area 5?

Anyone heard this one yet?
  • Off Topic. First NY, now LA. I was in a Detective meeting where they want to make a Central Homicide Unit out of Homan. Detectives will be on call, have a take home car, extra pay, and be assigned to teams in an Area, Just [like] LA. Also being told it will be called Robbery Homicide Division just like LA. Meeting with the Mayor this [week] to float the idea by her instead of reopening Area 4 and Area 5. 
Interesting.

The trouble here is that the "extra pay" means politics will play an oversized role in who actually gets assigned there. Perhaps not when Beck is nominally "in charge," but right after he leaves. Competency has no place in the D-unit and hasn't for many many years now.

On call? No swiping in or out? Just a slight problem I foresee!! Maybe a swipe machine in each of the elite ON CALL Dics houses? Bang the wifey or girlfriend on the city dime. Biz as usual in this 2nd rate Dept. To be expected in this 3rd world city. Maybe get interims instead of a full time supe. They can each add their expertise to this disaster in progress.

This idea will never float.

And is only an option due to the Department not paying any attention to the closed buildings.
The HVAC and water problems are the main concerns.

They need to install desks and computers which they have no money for let alone repairs to buildings!

If they allowed take home cars and overtime call out they would be in the budget deep,
paying the D-2a the minute the call or pager goes off.....As long as they are on job.......

Because just with regular old AGG BATs/shootings/carjacking with guns/and dont forget attacks with penis they would need a few hundred dicks.

Then you need

clouted to make a felony folder
clouted to do FOIA request (strange spot for any police)
Evidence guys who dont want to do detective work
time keeper

You actually think GROOT know what any of these extra pay dicks do????
When has the City given extra pay ever to anybody.

ON call? that means a take home car with actual police lights.

I am glad to see groot and special EDs leftovers trying not to follow what the study showed them what must be done.

What is the difference between this and having Homicide teams at the area? Every time a new boss comes in they feel that their old city did it best. Closing Area 4 and 5 were two of the stupidest ideas goofy ass Mccarthy did. Re-opening them is a good idea.

The first step is to get rid of every supervisor, from sergeant to commander to deputy chief to Chief, who has never been a detective. Stop these political assignments just so the folks with influence can get out of uniform and get a take home car. I willnever forget the violent crime lieutenant in area one who they would call " Captain Morgan" because he would show up at crime scenes intoxicated and wobbly . No one said a word, to include the field deputy. He was too heavy. That is a sad statement of affairs.

Been a detective for 20 years and all they've ever cared about is violent crime - every meeting, every training session, every news article, every mention by the mayor, etc. How's that working out for ya Chicago? Ever hear of NYC ? Ever hear of the broken windows theory? Think murderers are overachievers who's first crime is a murder? No way my friend, it takes years of practice ... get over yourselves, an investigation is an investigation, whether its a theft or a murder ... same same. Sure murders are held to a higher standard, paper-wise, but fundamentally the same nonetheless. Put some robbers in prison before they murder ... Toni? Lori? Crimesha? You could take away all the murders and you'd still have packs of feral youths ruining the Mag Mile, hijacking cars, shoplifting, playing the knock-out game, etc. Murders might be 2% of the overall crime in the city.

YAWN ... who cares about murders

I hear bosses are already making phone calls trying to get assigned there. If true, there will be no bids to get there. It will all be done under manpower requirements, and ability to solve crimes, and actual merit will have nothing to do with how it is staffed. Clout driven supervisors will run that shit show from the beginning, and they will bring in their own people just like always. I don't believe the rumors about overtime. The city will crack down on that should it happen and muck up the waters just like it always does. What doesn't the city run into the ground?

Before you start messing with the system, first start with the personnel. You have sergeants and Lts. in the D who were never detectives. You have merit detectives that never made a felony arrest, yet get promoted. You have detectives who sit on their ass all day who never go out and investigate their cases all under the supervision of Sgts who fail to manage them. You have sgts who don’t thoroughly read the reports that are submitted for review that should be rejected for a piss poor investigation. Shall I go on ?

Best thing I’ve read on here in a long time. Those teams should be sent back to their district of assignment or better moved to the TRAFFIC UNIT. I always loved these clowns who think putting 50-60 year olds in lockup for traffic.

Maybe that unit can happen in other depts but not here. As soon as you mention a take home car and extra pay, the detectives with seniority will file a grievance with fop and get those spots. After all, how many detectives do you think will be left in the areas? Not many since most are working homicide and robbery anyways. Maybe a few left for svu and sex assaults but not many.

Bet that bright idea came from someone on the chopping block.
We may not need ‘x’ amount of Homicide Dets in A/N compared to the restorative justice release killings that are more frequent in A/S or A/C. Eliminating A/N is a reality not for central located crime solving, but real estate that it sits upon.
CPD will never see a dime of the money when they sell that land for $1 anyway.

Someone doesn’t come here and try to reinvent our wheel, they come here to study our flaws and what happens when things go wrong so they don’t make the same mistakes. There’s 47 (maybe 46) angry, cranky,, senseless, thoughtless elected idiot councilmen that aren’t about to agree to paying police more when Sanctuary is hurting.

Pay increase, take home car...forget that noise doe.
To wit; No contract wage concessions for over 2 years and long standing vehicle shortages in the Areas, constant bellyaching about OT from antagonizing community members for investigative leads and KrazyKim’s Kangaroo Kourt of Stricken On Leave.

Just like every other centralized “route” system, whether you were delivering newspapers, milk bottles or FedEx someone will always be sent out to the shitside, some will never leave the desk, and midnights is still midnights.
(Where do I apply?)
This idea will go the way of rehiring retired Dets, clearing out District/HQ of perennial house mice and haircut/grooming standards.

-

Way back:
I vaguely remember when Chief JM (2002?) floated a Patrolman grade to D1a (?) sort of a Corporal position, stepping stone to Sgt rank, also enhancing the FTO grade (D2a?) that was also to be a segue to Sgt.

And this will do what. Will it build trust in the community, will it stop the community's "No Snitching" rule, will Crimesha prosecute more criminals and thugs arrested by police, will the courts give stiffer sentences or continue to free them to rob, main and murder in the community. Will this some how increase clearance rates, will this some how make the Detective Division's Commander and Supervisors more efficient?

What this change does do is create a false illusion that some how things will magically change and that arrests and prosecutions will increase. This is what Groot is peddling under the false flag of "Reform". The community will suddenly be more civil and that trust will miraculously appear. The same group of detectives will incredibly solve all these crimes because of the proposed moves and changes. For a city strapped with cash problems the cost makes little difference to all concerned. Groot only 'poor mouths" when its good for her. This is the same "hope and change" that you can believe in as previously peddled crap by another Democrat. You see how well that worked out.

All this is old talking pointes that were used by the previous Superintendents (Jody, Gary, & Special Ed and their Bosses - Daly, Rahm) when they closed or modified the Detective Areas originally. Basically the same lame reasons they're giving us now. This is all smoke, mirrors and Bull Shit. NY style of policing didn't work and now we have the LA version of another similar blunder. This one is engineered by Groot and Beck. The next clown Superintendent will have clean hands on this one. Groot owns this fiasco along with Johnson's Johnson scandal. This proposed single change without any modifications to the prosecutor's office or the courts is more liberal crap. Another example of creating an illusion that this effort is making us Chicago Proud.

This is hilarious in many ways. Narcotics is absolutely useless, they do buy busts on hypes all day long. Always coming into the area with 60 plus year old, 1 rock arrests. Then to talk shit about gangs who is probably the last unit that is actually doing proactive work? No matter how many times they are told to slow it down, it’s the older hard chargers in gangs that refuse to stop working which boggles my mind.

Won’t work, too much clout and cronyism. You have way too many do-nothing dics who don’t do anything all day except shop on the internet, take 2 hour lunch breaks, play games on their phones, etc., and if they do actual work, suspend ALL cases even tho they should be investigated. Sgts. are complicit in this, too. Many don’t do anything with the lazies and assign jobs to the already bulging work load of the ones that do investgations, make arrests and go to court. I’ve seen it first hand as I’ve complained more than once to a sgt and all he said is yea, I know, then handed me the job. Another time I was given a load of cases from the sgt that were originally assigned to someone else, but did NOTHING. Victims were calling all the time. I’ll also add that the detective was a medical roll abuser AND rented an apartment from the sgt. This was over 12 years ago, but vividly recall the events. Complaints to the Lt fell on deaf ears, too. May I add that’s it’s a lot easier to type a 3 line suspension rather a Clear Closed by Arrest report.

Why all the negative comments. With the 10% clearances on homicides something needs to change. What would be best is Staples being demoted to a school crossing guard. That might be the one city job she could handle. On second thought that might put too many kids in danger so maybe radio passers-by ouster would be a better landing place for Queen Staples. She must have something or a lot on some very high people to keep her job after years of total failure.

Reverse seniority, hahahahaha. Read the contract Francis. New unit opens, the department can backfill the new units based on their operational needs. Seniority only applies to the initial bid. After that Guy with 1 year or 31 years doesn't matter, the only person who is contractually safe is anyone who bid to their unit/area within the last 12 months. No one else is safe and I’m sure the clouted already know where they are going.

In all actuality, there really doesn't need to be this massive reorganization of the Detective Bureau. How do you fix the problem? Putting the right supervisors in the unit. Those that are qualified. Just being a dick and getting promoted doesn't make you qualified. The supervisors need to audit the murders every 30, 60, and 90 days and give a "To Do" List to the detectives that aren't up to speed. Enforce standards. Don't allow dicks to come in, grab keys, go home, and return to the Area and go home. Supervisors need to have accountability over equipment such as radios and vehicles. Supervisors need to facilitate a functional working environment such as having paper, file folders, toner, staplers, staples. Dicks shouldn't have to buy these things with their own money but they do. Supervisors need to get off surfing the internet and go to the RBT Districts and see who is working and who is fucking off. Read their cases and challenge them when they suspend every case.

Get the Crime Lab fully staffed again. We have 1 FI working the streets. Look at getting our own DNA Unit. ISP can take years to work up DNA and they often shelve working cases up without notifying anyone. This is unacceptable for rapes and murders.

Dicks can make OT but drawing over 100 hours a period without a clearance is unacceptable. Watch for analytics to come on OT versus cleared cases in the years to come.

Do we need another area up and running? Yes the old Area 4 should be brought back.

I can guarantee you the older guys don’t give a shit.

They have the seniority to weather any storm thrown at them.
You can’t move them, you can’t assign them a watch, you can’t take

Sgt's Need to be doing Homicide investigations, just like they do in IAD. Chicago needs a Det. Sgt rank.

Not if we've got to pay them more. No D3a BS. Enough burden on the pension system.

As a citizen can’t they find any good coppers to straighten the CPD out and remove the politics from the equation? Why should the Mayor have so much power over CPD? Seems like the politics is the problem.

12/10/2019 01:36:00 PM


Politics is part and parcel of this city. As long as politics rules this city, it will rule CPD. It's a twisted version of leading by example. It doesn't matter how many "good coppers" you have, regardless of rank. As a matter of fact, I'd say that most coppers are politics-free, and look what a mess we've got.

A direct nuclear strike on city hall wouldn't root it out. Cockroaches have increased resilience to radiation.

Not an old timer here but been a dick for at least 12 years. She has made a bigger mess of putting the worst supervisors in the D than anyone else as chief of dicks. So lay off the cheerleading, shut your fucking suck and enjoy your hack appointment! Can’t wait to bust her balls when she’s humbled down to Lt.! Worst Big-city clearance rate in the country!!! But what do you expect from a chief that never directly handled an assignment as an investigator!

Extra pay? Don’t the dicks already get a bump in pay. Say what you want about narcotics and gangs being clout baby’s or the hair gel police. Like any unit, district or area you have dead weight but also have a good amount of hard working officers. The clearance rate in the D unit is extremely low. A good amount of the actual cleared cases come from information that narcotics and gangs get from informants or from flipping individuals that build cases on. Like it or not there is a need for some sort of narcotics and/or gang unit. Don’t forget about the federal funding these units bring in or the money from seizures. You don’t see anyone in these proactive units crying for a bump in extra pay.

Concur! The more notable goofs were either already there or placed by someone else.

PLUS She had absolutely nothing to do with those dim witted McCARTHY-NY based changes and has been trying to undo them. The D unit is fubar with the nearly complete loss of institutional knowledge, and a whole crop of dets that were not the proactive police before they were promoted. So quit scapegoating Staples.

Drug testing for government includes more than testing for THC, it test's for cannabinoids also, which there are at least 120 different ones. For example taking CBD oil with .03% of THC will more than likely not show up, but the cannabinoids will.
