MAJOR MAJOR changes coming to the Dick Units....

The Homicide Unit is coming back with a vengeance - The Homicide Units will be supplemented with personnel (PO's) from OCD that are getting cut from Narcotics- half the cases that narcotics investigates is getting legalized come Jan 1- so no need for all those people in 189..

the rest are going back to patrol.

I heard the Dept. is trying to figure out how to make a citywide team that the city can use at their disposal much like the Tact teams- with details and being sent across the city when they need the bodies- they want to put the Tat teams back in uniform and unmarked cars like LA has- they don't have civilian dressed personnel unless they work in their Detective Bureau.

I know the department has been meeting with veteran detectives to assist in implementing this- they have been sending several detectives to meet with other Big City Departments to see what works and what doesn't. It also comes to a major issue the other cities don't have the likes of Lovey & Lovey and the fact that they stuffed NON-Detective Supervisors into the Bureau years ago and ran it into the ground....

Ok. Start dismantling the Merit hack buffoons that have bowed to the Mayor(s).
They’re not interested in clearance and no Central Homicide Unit will make any difference when CookCounty routinely lets armed assailants walk out of jail.

Another pilot program and scheduling change and if nobody applies for this exciting new old strategy, some folks will be drafted.

The On-Call gets the take home car, limited to 10 hr tours, because assignments always come at the start of a tour. It’s also the average time it takes to get a GOCR, canvass, witness interviews. Of course if by chance there’s an arrest, wait for the arrest report, lineups, canvasses, supplemental reports, video interrogation, inventories, hosting impatient witnesses before even thinking about ever calling the Restorative Justice CookCo Felony Case Intake Call Center.

I’m sure some of the seasoned will remain, but as always a new Unit means new batch of ne’er on the street dollies.
How many Administrative HouseMouse Detectives, Sgts and Lts will be assigned to manage the CHU ?
Gotta have a duty desk separate from RBT/SVU.

A Central Homicide Unit for each Area or will this be housed out at A-C?
Is the OnCall a 24/7 notification, complete a tour and have to drop what your doing to handle another affordable bond murder?
Wouldn’t want to be the On-Call once assigned to A-N and having to drive to A-S or vice versa.
Guess you have to sign up to find out just how sweet a dill this pickle will be.

I wonder if midnights will still operate shorthanded and lopsided as ever.
Yeah, this will great LAPD model work, so says The Chollie.
Nobody bothered to put any responsibility or accountability on CCSAO.

I have NO doubt that the city will screw this up. Too many BS supervisors in the "D" Unit. This is what was wrong when the Koschman case blew up. These people operate with impunity and act like every thing they say and do is Legit. Even now they are likely interviewing, and acting like they are "the Legit" detective supervisors. Some of them should be nominated for "best actor". From the commander on down. I suggest that they start the unit with supervisors known for leadership, and not who they know. And experience as a Detective would be nice here. The poison here has gone deep. It's gonna take time to bridge the punctures, and suck out all the venom.
And just where are all these "On Call" cars going to come from? The motor pool? Ha! I remember my first detectives pool car needed a jump every time we started it. I brought in a "jump start" battery pack. So we left it running, when it ran. We got to drive it if it didn't have a flat or two. I actually took out my own car on jobs for a while.
Beck....you're not going to be here long enough to really change things, but thanks for trying. This city is an actual train wreck. Anything it touches turns to a steaming pile of dung.
I guess the 10 hour day is staying around for a while. I was hoping that was almost over with. People with the "blessing" will always seem to get the better starting hours. What a horrible implementation that was. A 24 hour day, split into 3 shifts always yields an 8 hour shifts. It's simple math. Overlapping and waiting for cars is unacceptable.

To the idiot poster about meeting with other Departments. Completely false. This draft order made its way around about a month ago. We already saw it and dismissed it. The old areas are opening up, and there will be Homicide teams in each of the areas with a homicide Lt and a separate Violent Lt. That what the PERF order reads and that’s what is being enacted.

Chas W Salvatore: I was promoted in late 1977 to the rank of Detective. At the time there were the following units: Homicide/Sex, Robbery, Burglary, Auto Theft, General Assignments. I was assigned to Homicide/Sex. I would watch as the Robbery Detectives would, day in and day out, would bring in robbery suspects for line-ups. The vast majority of time the offender would be identified and charged. Several years later Robbery and Homicide were combined. The unit commander stated that this was a name change only and that the Homicide Detectives would still be assigned Homicides and the Robbery Detectives would still be assigned Robberies. At first this was the case but after a few months the former Robbery Detectives were given murders after murders. What was the sad thing was the line-up for Robbery line-ups were reduced to almost nothing. I asked around and it was almost identical around the city. Here is what I can see what will happen: Robberies would be a after thought. If someone was smart, this person would ask the retired Detectives who lived through this their thoughts on this up coming merger. What new is old and what's old is new

You agree to the new compensation structure when you apply for the position. You don't want to work under it, then you don't apply.

Its not the only position within the department that you agree to waive certain contractual stipulations to accept.

It doesn’t make sense to use 189 to assist the Homicide unit. They do have limited investigatory experience, which is typically more narcotics related. Working on and investigating a homicide investigation is a little different than conducting a narcotics investigation.

Actually, 193 in OCD actually already HAS a couple of “Homicide Teams” that work with and assist detectives in their respective areas. It would seem that these teams would be much more suitable to make the transition to the Homicide unit simply from a standpoint that they already have a working relationship with the detectives, assuming that most of the Homicide dics at the areas go to this new unit. These teams would also already understand how these types of cases tend to unfold.

First and foremost, CANCEL THE DETAILS OF PEOPLE TO OCD.
If you aren’t assigned, sorry, back to the district you go. That right there is 180 bodies immediately back to patrol.
How does it make sense or is it even safe to detail people to 189 or 193 with 4,5,6 years on the job. With 4 years you should maaaybe just be learning enough to start getting to a tact team! 4 years doesn’t give you the necessary experience to step into a unit running more advanced operations. Also cancel the detail of anyone assigned to Gang Enforcement.

A lot of the details last far too long and is nothing more than a way to hide someone with clout in a spot.
If you are going to tackle the merit problem, I think that the problem of people being detailed out goes hand in hand.
How do you choose who gets detailed over someone else?
If I have more activity, why is that guy who’s uncle is a Lieutenant somewhere (bit has less activity than me) getting detailed to an exciting new opportunity for assignment before me?
Either get assigned, or you don’t go. No back door shell games for confusing manpower, and a grey-area of who gets selected and how.

189 I think would be more suitable to assist with the formation of some sort of Tactical Unit that you are talking about than 193. 189 would bring a lot of street-level experience and working knowledge of the day-to-day operations of the more violent neighborhoods with them to the streets.
At that point, you can combine Gang Enforcement and the trimmed-down 189 and make this new Tactical Unit.
Sorry Gun Teams and Sat teams, send you guys back to the districts also.

Wearing uniforms in an unmarked car has always seemed like a silly concept to me, but we already tried the “New York way,” now it’s fine to try the “LA way” and do what they do. I think in the end it will morph into another Mobile Strike Force type of thing, and not necessarily similar to the function of the LA tactical or gang unit.

So let me get this strait. They are re-opening all of the Areas which are centrally located to improve response times. Detectives assigned to an Area take a special interest in that Area and become familiar with the gangs, other players and crime patterns. This is just how it works. However they think it is a good idea to remove the Robbery/Homicide detectives from the Areas to a central location like Homan Square? Well there go the response times. The on call detective the lives far south could be sent to the 25th Dist which could take hours to get there. Not to mention they may not have any knowledge of the on going gang situation in that area. Makes no scene to me.

Those fuckers will help with the murder investigations. Besides that forget it. You dont walk up to some fucker and buy four and a split of anything. That shit takes time to build up to.

That'll be great but gang/narcotics have access to detective supps, but detectives have ZERO access to parallel investigations being done.
More than once detectives have arrived to interview victims/witnesses when their told "we already spoke to detectives"
Detectives then ask them, "Was the detective wearing a shirt and tie like I am or blue jeans and a baseball cap".
Person says, "blue jeans and baseball cap".
There lies the problem, gang intel and narcotics tell people they are detectives which they are not, they interview people without first notifying the assigned detective.
Any information from that interview is not available to the assigned detective, and 9 times out of 10 the assigned detective has to correct the misinformation provided to them by the blue jean police.
I worked gangs for years in a south side district before making detective and at no time did I ever tell them I was a detective, or a narc. I told them I'm a gang investigative police officer working along with your detective...because that was what my veteran sergeant told me to tell them...basically the truth so as not to confuse the investigation .

I agree. Supervisors in the D-Unit should not be locked in their position. They didn’t test in anyway. They should be evaluated regularly and made to give an oral summary of their performance monthly at Compstat. Put the commanders, Lt’s and sergeants in the hot seat at compstat. Make them work for it. Make them go out on scenes instead of sitting around answering the phone and watching TV.

But ... the broken windows stuff that was done in NYC aims at reducing homicides, not clearing homicides that have already occurred. So, ya, beef up the D-Unit to clear homicides, but that won't prevent homicides in the first place. To prevent homicides in the first place, the robbery, burglary detectives will need a little love too!. Not gonna happen I know, but we as a city need to put these MFers in prison for robbery and burglary. It's kind of hard to commit a homicide when you are in prison.

Chas W Salvatore: I was promoted in late 1977 to the rank of Detective.

And dumped out of the Academy in 1996 by a Detective in sergeant's school who later became Chief of Dicks.

Why on earth would you centralize the Homicide / Robbery Units and put it on the Westside when the whole purpose of reopening the two Areas is so that Southside victims and witnesses won’t have to travel north or west and Westside victims and witnesses won’t have to travel south? If you think the homicide clearance rate is low now, trying getting Southside witnesses to travel west. Furthermore, the Blackspot, I mean Homan Square is a nightmare for some citizens on the south and Westside.

RBT Sergeants are the only ones giving presentations at Compstat. And yes they are grilled by Lemmer. I suggest you visit the show. You won't see anyone from HGS there.

... and this is where the problem lies. All D-Unit Sergeants should be required to give a monthly presentation. After Lemmer grill everyone, there still is no real accountability. Open the NOJO up to patrol supervisors who were once dicks.

I see the Chief of Detectives needs to sign off on this,my question is has anyone seen Staples? I think she has her head in the sand until Beck is gone so things will go back to normal....


She’s where she’s been the entire time, somewhere daydreaming.

That'll be great but gang/narcotics have access to detective supps, but detectives have ZERO access to parallel investigations being done.
More than once detectives have arrived to interview victims/witnesses when their told "we already spoke to detectives"
Detectives then ask them, "Was the detective wearing a shirt and tie like I am or blue jeans and a baseball cap".
Person says, "blue jeans and baseball cap".
There lies the problem, gang intel and narcotics tell people they are detectives which they are not, they interview people without first notifying the assigned detective.

*****************
I see the DCO program has not come to whatever district you're working yet. All the "ME ME ME" stuff is going away. We will all be working together for the common good. All info will be shared, DCO officers will be writing up Bureau service requests to get all this solved. You just wait and see....! Oh, and the program doesn't effect watch manpower either. ....I've got a bridge out back....
