The "Training"
Someone found the website outlining the purpose of the "training" we wrote about yesterday:
- Overview
In partnership with the Chicago Police Department, this project will develop and test a police training program to improve officer decision-making in high-stakes situations for the safety of officers and community members alike.
Grant Amount: $570,240
Organization: University of Chicago
[...] Expected Completion Date: mid-2021
- Purpose: Develop and test a police training program to improve officer decision-making in high-stakes situations, and evaluate the program using a randomized control trial.
From what we've heard, we and others are questioning the study protocols. In fact, a number of people have written to the head of the Department and received a very nice reply:
- Thank you for brining [sic] this to our attention. We see many training-related evaluation studies that the university runs in partnership with (and at the request of) the CPD. I will determine what study this is and reach out to the study teams so this can be addressed ASAP as it should never be the case that people be forced to participate in a research study and sign a consent form. In some of these cases, the training itself is mandatory because CPD has decided to adopt and test it, but consenting to allow the data/results to also be used for research purposes is always voluntary and no one should be pressured into research participation.
Please let me know if you have any questions and again, thanks for bringing this to our intention.

So if anyone is ordered to sign a form, they'd be on solid ground refusing - that's our opinion, not a legal decision. Don't be the City test case. As to participation, direction should be sought from the FOP lawyers.

This is a huge issue if they are attempting to do a study. Ethics is major in modern studies, as many of the CPD officers who completed graduate degrees understand. We're not talking Chicago ethics but real ones. Nice to know CPD has interfered with a UofC study due to our corruption. Agree or disagree with the study it's yet another dumb move by our command.
It actually appears to be a research project for a Doctoral Degree. Somebody done getting themselves a Phd.
It's a SHIT SHOW on autopilot.
"brining [sic]".... That's all you need to know about this
program and the people behind it. NOBODY bothers to
proof read anymore, including The Wall Street Journal/
MarketWatch. They play the public for dupes and don't
really give a fuck.
Go ahead FORCE me to sign the consent. I’ll make a scene, perform some “I can’t breathe” acting and then hit IOD for stress induced conditions. Officers fall out of chairs and collect for years. CPD, please keep promoting dummies so I can eventually be paid. I bet I’m not the only one hoping to cash out. Love this city and our legit department.
“Everyone agrees that we want to end gun violence, but the shortage of rigorous, impartial research has fueled polarization in discussions of gun policy,” Frank Clark, the chair of the collaborative’s research advisory committee and former chair of the Chicago Board of Education, said in a statement.
“These projects will help us get beyond politics and ideology to determine what works and what doesn’t.”
There’s some many black and brown people getting killed in Chicago that they feel they need to start with CPD to look for causes of gun violence.

An awfully salty response!!!
(brining)
Seriously, at least someone has some common sense!!!
Thanks for “brining” this to our attention?
Thanks for bringing this to our “intention”?
I guess they don’t have a English department at the U of C.
One of the UOFC staff is on social media Twitter good kids mad city GKMC sjw let's see how fair the study will be.
FUCK that
PAY ME...
experiments pay nice sum of cash specially for groups of person that are hard to find such as police.
SOMEBODY is getting paid who is it over a half million???
DO the police officers that need training then receive an email copy of the outcome?
And if this test is on CITY time then a FOIA request should be able to get all that nifty info. How much in man hours does this test waste of tax payer money.
Who authorized the test? Who proposed the test to the city?
How many officer tested? DO any exempt take the test?
Will someone name the SGT at the Merit Academy who ordered Officers to sign the consent form?
I would like to check the merit list of SGTS to confirm the SGT who ordered Officers to sign the consent form was in fact a MERIT Sergeant!
Dear DOJ.
Like we keep telling you Feds, the problem with CPD is MERIT PROMOTIONS!
These CPD instructors need to teach these researchers what violence really is. It’s not something you can talk your way out of or simulate on a screen. People really really hate authority no matter what and it’s just getting worse thanks to their holistic social justice approach which is not compatible with human nature in this time line . Trying to rush social justice evolution faster than it’s capable of ie shitheads is unattainable at this time. Shitheads don’t give a fucking rats ass cock shaft what your study says, they will still take your shit or KILL YOU because crimesha is allowing it! Dumb asses!!!! You WILL get away with murder, not because of detectives doing their jobs but the failure to prosecute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We know the game now. Enjoy your report when it happens to one of u. Good luck giving a description to warn the rest of the population it will be censored via RING and NEST apps, hahahahahahaha!!!
If this training were genuinely goal orientated to Improving an Officer's ability to address Officer Involved Shooting scenarios; then it's a Great Idea. However, we live in a City where the Chicago Police are the "Enemy", to politicians and "Da Kumunity". Police Involved Shootings are treated as situations where the Police are at Fault, until proven otherwise. Then, if the Police are not found to be Criminally at Fault; they will be pursued in Civil Litigation for Wrongful Death or Excessive Force: that is the Reality of Policing in Chicago. As someone who has been sued for wrongful death, as a Chicago Police Sergeant, I can assure you it is NOT a Pleasant Experience, especially when your City appointed attorneys hate the police. Years ago when we would take our annual firearm qualification, our scores were taken and kept. This stopped when defense attorneys began to subpoena those records to aid in lawsuits against us, as another angle to question the actions of the cop. That is why today we score Pass or Fail. If this were a place and time where Officers could trust the City; then this program would be wonderful. If Officers who did not do well in the training were then guided to correct their errors the program would do great. However, in the current environment with a Hostile Media and City Administration, this training is Dangerous to the career and Liability of any Officer who takes the Training. Be careful, Academia is not our friend. Baby "G"
Fop should call Cherie and demand that this process be stopped !!!! No one should demand any law enforcement officers to do any training which an out side entity period only if one volunteers to !!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for bringing this to our "intention'??? Not "attention"???
They should cancel this study based on that alone!!
https://research.uic.edu/human-subjects-irbs/
The union (or any individual) has solid ground to refuse. No one can be a laboratory research subject against their will. If anyone complains this will stop.
University of Chicago AGAIN! They are so incompetent and live in their own Pritzker, Emmanuel and Obama fantasy world.
I think she addressed that issue nicely. However, the issue with the spellchecker......
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Prisoners have more protected rights than law enforcement when it comes to to the IRB. Try doing studies on prisoners and find out how many hoops you have to jump through for psychological and ethical reasons. It goes through multiple layers of critics and critiques before it’s approved. That’s even if it gets approved. But.....not police. Especially in the city. This is fucking unheard of if true. A third party, who is performing tests the subject does not want to be a part of, and the subject is being forced to consent under duress by their employer. Holy shit. police have little to know rights and are being used for ideological purposes. The results of this test, and other administered to CPD, the results are always going to have a negative impact on the police.
I think I was one of the first to refuse last week. The guy almost s**t his pants when I assist not. I don’t volunteer for anything. If it’s not part of that bulls**t mandatory consent decree hours f**k then maybe.
What's with the E-Mail I keep getting requiring me to take a 3 hour test? 3 hours?
So if anyone is ordered to sign a form, they'd be on solid ground refusing - that's our opinion, not a legal decision.
I believe that it is a legal decision. You can't be forced to sign your name on a document against your will.
They have since rescinded the part where you have to sign.
Re: Maslow's hierarchy of needs.....
For Cheri Pettey, the very top of the pyramid says
"Get those fucking AirPods out of your ears during
work hours"
Malinoski is all over this shit.
He thinks cops can be trained like lab rats.
Up yours, Brain Boy.
Well at least we know where to find 'back' and 'ass' over at
the University of Chicago.
If the U of C wants to conduct such a study, why not send their staff (doctors and nurses except my wife lol) then send them walking around the neighborhood (Englewood) in the evening to socialize with those fine citizens and ask them to volunteer to take their survey. Let’s see how nice they’re treated and what great conclusions they arrive at. I can provide security for them at say $250 an hour!
The Fop needs to contact U of C and tell them the officers that signed did so under duress. Force U of C to recontact the participants and have them determine if they are willing participants.
Just another example of K Johnson being a moron who shouldn’t be anywhere near a training academy.
They are averaging 15 refusals a day. I believe 100 people per day are scheduled to attend. So, that makes approximately 15% of the people showing up refusals. We can do better.
From Politico, Nov. 8, 2019
"Sean Malinoski, who was Chief of Staff to Beck before they
both retired from the LAPD, is now Director of Policing
Innovation Reform at the University of Chicago Crime Lab."
Money, not "innovation and reform," is behind every decision
Sean makes. LAPD retirement, Baltimore PD consulting work,
ect. This greedy Bezos-Wannabe needs to get his ass kicked
out the streets doing real police work. And Beck is nothing more
thana shifty carpetbagger. Have pedigree, will travel for money.
Both of these clowns are nothing more than modern day Police
Crime Lords. Baffle them with cheap suits, academic credentials,
and research studies. Publish the results, pad your resume, move
on to the next shithole department and peddle your wares.
Go ahead FORCE me to sign the consent. I’ll make a scene, perform some “I can’t breathe” acting and then hit IOD for stress induced conditions. Officers fall out of chairs and collect for years.
Sorry (I hope you are not on the job) You sound like problem with our society today Frivolous, vexatious lawsuits. Not some one I want to work with.
Paging Professor Angelo. Paging Dr. Dean Angelo. Please provide your valuable knowledge on an important academic issue! Has anyone seen our factoid fountain??? We finally need your expertise!!! Just flag down any passing squad car that you adroitly negotiated last contract.
Retired .38 spl +P
We once knew a Batman and Robin combination in
another line of work. Robin followed Batman from
location to location, content to be a #2 player. And
Batman welcomed this because he knew Robin did
not have the right stuff to take his job away. Batman
finally retired, Robin stayed on a few more years because
he was younger (funny how those things work out), then
retired himself, getting a double dip pension because he
was in the Military Reserves. Neither one busted their
ass at work and both had MBA's. In the case of Robin,
it was a mail order MBA.
I’m pretty sure they if you do this. And this third party has your info and how you responded it could be used against you at some time when you get into some shit and don’t respond the way “they” want you too. Show up at your own risk until you are advised by some lawyer that knows what they are talking about.
The union (or any individual) has solid ground to refuse. No one can be a laboratory research subject against their will. If anyone complains this will stop.
My suggestion always act professionally. Keep your cool. Remember YOU CANNOT REFUSE A LAWFUL ORDER from a supervisor. So I say sign it with the disclaimer in the FOP book and file a grievance. Don act like an asshat ever
Conflict of interest written all over this, considering
past behavior of Malinoski and forensic auditing.
Sean is a double dipper, never content with just one
job or source of income. No wonder he is one of the
most hated individuals on the force. Right at home with
Fast Eddie and Minnesota Fats always playing the angles.
Sickening. Just sickening. Hey Malinoski, man up and use
your own balls for a study.
Do all Phd students have an equal opportunity to use CPD members for dissertation research? Spoiler alert--the answer is no.
With the NFL in its current state, I hesitate to use
a football analogy here. But I will say that Sean Malinoski
"has a nose for the ball," or should I say "has a nose for
Charlie Beck?" Malinoski's camel nose has always been
under Beck's tent since they first worked together in LA.
What flies in LA looks like shit in Chicago. Sorry, that's
just the way it is. We can only hope Florian over at the
Chicago Contrarian will take a look into this unholy
relationship and expose it for what it is. Neither one of
these guys has the brains to work alone. They are partners
in crime robbing the public coffers blind and enriching
themselves to an extent not possible with individual achievement.
Fuck your "training" and the training you rode in on.
If I hear of one more 'study' or 'training' gambit run
by the Cue Ball In Chief, I'm gonna fucking puke.
This bastard is greedy beyond the need for basic
food, shelter, and clothing. Most people would not
continue to work at a place where they are absolutely
despised. And that Alphabet Cloak that fool wraps himself
in is absolutely pitiful.
What's next for the Dynamic Duo? Key West PD?
Ask the researchers about their literature review. Over the past 25 years multiple doctoral dissertations have been written by Chicago Police officers concerning issues in police training. See if the researchers have used any of it.
How far we have fallen...into a shit pit of pseudoscience,
graft, and corruption.
From the University of Chicago Archives (online):

Wrong
If this is a UofC study, then they should be looking for volunteers & those volunteers should be compensated for their time.
The asshole Sgt’s supposedly giving a direct order to sign the consent is just wrong.
Let the liberal pukes at UofC use some of that half a million to compensate the VOLUNTEERS!
The illiterate response tells you all you need to know about where
this will end.....
POLICE BAD, criminals good.....
Our actions are dictated by the actions of those to whom we are called to “stop, fix, or control”......
Nothing more, nothing less.......
Perhaps his half million dollar grant should be studying why CRIMINALS are CRIMINALS who refuse to
participate in any semblance of a civilized society.....why rape and beat to death a 92 year old?
Why go out every nice non-snowy day and shoot up anyone you see just out walking around?
Why did they shoot the driver and carjack the car, only to abandon it half a mile away?
More questions than answers.
So name the prick Merit St. Why play hide the Winnie with this merit hack. Who is he?
As a society, we have been deceived that people who
have advanced degrees are somehow smarter and
better than the rest of us. On the contrary, it could not
be further from the truth. Most of these goofs got those
degrees by attending school part time while working
full time jobs. They worked at their own leisurely pace
over a period of years. All they did was grind it out.
Now, they lord it over us and bring the hammer down.
It's high time for these imposters to be investigated and
put in their proper place.
....it ain't nothin' but a [sic] show....
So to stop all the gun violence in Chicago the starting point is the CPD with their 6-7 KIA's instead of the community and their gangs with over 500KIA's. Makes total since. So how about this, no police shootings this year. Just run away from any situation where you might be forced to defend yourself. Death toll would drop by a whopping .05%-.07% for the year. Wow a less than one percent drop makes this so worthwhile. Why not start with convicted killers and see what drove them to kill. Oh that's right with less than 11% clearance rate not many to talk to. Just curious how many of the 11% charged actually convicted of murder. Would be a very telling and interesting number to know. So the academics pick the low hanging fruit to change their behavior. Yea right you sure don't get much for 500K in the city anymore.
You cannot be made to sign. Just walk away.
WSCC 911, Chicago.....
This request from the boys at CPD goes out to
Sean "Bean" Malinoski......
Take it away, Ben E. King......
There is a rose in Spanish Harlem
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem
It is a special one, it's never seen the sun

Cloistered eggheads getting half a million to tell police officers how to behave with violent criminals.
FOP ? ? ?
Advice? Instruction? HELP!
Re-education Camp.
It’s part of the systematic plan to Fundamentally Change America™️.
On time Attendance is mandatory and a sign in sheet should be the only thing required.
As well as a FULL tour....something every Exempt Merit always seems to avoid.
DON’T be offended, even the lab mice they use are required to sign waivers and non disclosure forms.
DO be offended when they don’t give you a Veleeta slice after you’re done “training”.
$570,240 -- A Colossal Waste Of Cash
It can't prevent/resolve a 'Jussie Smollett'
because The System is rigged from top to bottom.
I'm sick of these academic shysters. Inside job; stealing

Shameless waste of horse flesh.

Hey Frank Clark, go pound sand. You're a former Chair for the Chicago Board of Education, their goes your credibility. You say "these projects will help us get beyond politics". You must be a real slow learner man, this is CHICAGO. Everything is about POLITICS. Didn't you learn anything about politics as Chair of the Public Schools.
Oh yeah, you say "black and brown people are getting killed in Chicago and you should look to the Police Department for its causes. Wait a second, your looking at the CPD for causes as to why black and brown people are killing each other and their prolific gun violence on each other. Frank, excuse me, but I think you may be " playing with your plumbs".
You might want to start with the Community, then Kim FOXX, Tim EVANS, Big TONI, Rahm and little Lori. The Community's prolific guns violence problem has been institutionalized by these officials and not the CPD.
Just say 'NO' to being a lab rat.
Malinoski and his lazy-ass kind boned up on "Police
reform in the United States", circa 1960, read the penal
code backwards and figured out how to make an easy,
sleazy buck off of it. These are the bottom feeders. Studies,
theories, test cases, unproven psychobabble du jour, cutting
edge, state of the fart. I wear a white shirt and I know better
than you. Sure you do. You know how to lie and cheat and
line your pockets.
again i blame this stupid department that doesn’t teach these dumb sergeants when and what are lawful reasons when they can give officers a direct order without opening up the department for a lawsuit.
i would love for an officer to be brought up on discipline charges for failing to obey a direct order from a sergeant to take survey 💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵
If the University of Chicago's IRB gets enough complaints they would have to shut the study down. Getting IRB approval is a process and they have filed study procedure and policies they cannot violate or do anything that is different from what the IRB approved.
What does FOP say about all of this ????
I'm getting a PhD. How do I get the Department to do my homework for me?
Just got this bullshit department email... Funny how they don’t say it’s a study.
You have successfully been enrolled for Situational Decision Making Baseline on *********, February **, 2020 at 15:30
Class Description: Situational Decision Making (Sit-D) is a new training that provides cognitive tools to police officers to improve their thinking skills in high-stakes, ambiguous, and highly fluid situations. The training aims to help officers in the Chicago Police Department (CPD) more actively and accurately diagnose the situations they encounter while under stress, so they can make better decisions.
This is a 40 minute training. Please attend at your assigned time. If your assigned time conflicts with your start time, arrive immediately after the completion of your role call. No overtime will be granted for this training. Please arrive with your vest and duty belt.
Why are we not paid for our part in this research. Don’t sign the consent to release your information to them!
Went today....questionnaire before and after the scenario are both optional...nothing involved a signature of any sort.

FOP signed off on it. A bird at 35th said, the University of Chicago was given EVERYONE’S discipline record for use in their bulls**t research project. Why in the Hell would FOP sign off on this? Can someone explain this to me!
I'm not a cop, but in my own field we are told to sign things like this. We often print "SIGNED UNDER DURESS" very legibly above our signature.
My suggestion always act professionally. Keep your cool. Remember YOU CANNOT REFUSE A LAWFUL ORDER from a supervisor. So I say sign it with the disclaimer in the FOP book and file a grievance. Don act like an asshat ever

Uh, not an expert, but I do think if it's an absurdly ridiculous and unlawful order, you can just be able to write out a really good and articulate justification
"....of your role call..."
always thought it was Roll Call...
Fuck her and her study, She knows nothing about police work. She is a SJW shill, Nothing more.
Don't be a disposable lab rat for these liberal,
cop-hatin', lick-hittin', governemnt grant gittin',
tax-payer treasure stealin' academic/public safety gypsies.
U of Chicago is the last place to expect fair treatment from. The entire culture is crazed to put it mildly. The standard graduate package is for 1st year - full ride for everyone. By the time third (turd?) year comes around we are looking at maybe 50% of that class having funding. Everyone else is paying full boat ($$$) or taking a semester's worth or credits to transfer elsewhere. The term in academia is "Competitive". Cut-throat is more like it. Common examples are needed library books having pages/chapters removed so as to fuck over the competition. Sabotaging 'fellow' students is considered normal. Especially in the social sciences, as those degrees are worth nothing outside of 'higher' education. And let's not figure the opportunity costs of getting that Piled High and Deeper degree. All so that in 10, or more likely 20 years, the 'Dr.' can find a part time job with benefits, not the least of which is screwing around with students. With this warped perspective, any organization that promotes cohesion and middle class values is an enemy. After all, the 'uneducated and boorish' police officer may fail to bow to his/her/its obvious intellmulekshul superiority. Or more likely see through the emperor's new clothes. These assholes are in debt to the end of their lives, will most likely end up teaching part time at three different junior colleges, or HORROR, have to teach high school to make ends meet. So they both hate and envy groups like the police, military or even union workers.
They aren't your friends. Hell, the only people they hate more than the police is themselves whenever they have a chance to think about the hook, line and sinker they swallowed. Best not to cooperate with anything these aspiring Starbucks managers bring in. Anything to do with Social Sciences is nothing but crap anyway. Can't help, and can only hurt. The first thing a private learns is not to volunteer, and being unpaid just means getting screwed without being kissed
If you take the survey and do the scenario, you are a part of the study, it makes no difference if you dont sign off on it, they already have you in front of there laptops with camera facing you. you are in the academy, not in the public. you dont have to do any part of it you moron.walk away and say I do not want to PARTICIPATE, its stated in the info sheet they give you before the start. read it, then walk out.
Brining was the least of the grammatical issues in that missive.
