The City That Cares
You can tell exactly who the people-in-charge think are important:
- SCC.
Just an example of the incompetence going on here. We work in the Detective Division. Yes, we re out there doing our scenes, interviewing people, etc. just like Patrol. We go down to Equipment and Supply to pick up paper yesterday, and they re handing out soap and hand sanitizer. The Detective said, oh, I ll pick up for my unit.
Nope, sorry, you’re not on the list. You know who was on the list, all of HQ!! Is that a fcking joke or what!! None for us, but let’s make sure the idiots that deal with the public the least are taken care of. Absolute joke!
Even all of LAPD Officers have been given kits, Isn’t this guy from LA?!? No direction at all from anyone on this job.
Someone checked the dates stamped on the bottles of sanitizer that were supplied.
They expired in 2018.
Which, in the City's defense, is a year or so better than the Contract.

Hand sanitizer does expire, usually about three years after its manufacture date. Hand sanitizer expires because its alcohol content dissolves over time — once it drops below 60% alcohol, it won't be as effective at killing germs.
we need masks!
With all that is happening I can’t help to think back to after 9/11 and the stuff the city is/was doing in case of a national emergency. Remember how prepared they insisted we were gonna be and all the equipment we would have and all the off site warehouses spread throughout the city that would be stocked with supplies... It was hard to believe then, but I was optimistic that maybe for once the city did the right thing. I guess not.
Not surprising at all. This has been the protocol at headquarters for decades. The rich bosses, their friends and girlfriends there that sit inside working half days with weekends off are the first priority. Such stress they go through. Must be hard surfing the Internet all day safe from the dirty streets. This is why morale is so low.
What’s the surprise? These morons could screw up a one car funeral. They’re incompetent hacks who talk out of both sides of their mouth. They shake your hand with one their hands while the other holds the knife to stab you in the back. This city and it’s “leader” are always letting everyone down. No accountability. No brains. No fucking chance.
Who needs “sanitizing” more than the shit for brains trust at headquarters!
Not prepared for Corona in March, but I again according to what my wife’s politically connected family is saying— Groot is going to spend as much money on earth to make sure Chicago can handle the pride parade 🏳️🌈. That or move money to friends of connected firms such as Every other mayor has done
it would be a horrible thing for a couple hundred coppers caught the flu about now
I mean why let a crisis go to waste and
Stop bending over for the city and taking it up the axs
Dont believe sanatizer expires. They stamp expiration dates on water... means nothing....
Ot. What the hell is wrong with the idiots voting fox in?
I did several hours in the tubes on the Red Line at Jackson Street, fixed post. Where in fuck are any of my protections???!!!
We got our, and it’s expired.
How could Kim Fox possibly won?? I am shocked.
Unfortunately we’re all use to that kind of crap from headquarters. They’re first we’re last. It’s normal
No hand sanitizer on the desk in 022 ! Yesterday we got a small bottle
Of hand sanitizer (like it was gold) from the watch commander, looked like
It came from the dollar store or Taiwan. Thanks for thinking about us .Goofys
Dear SCC, can you please post this Public Service Announcement on its own thread?

FROM: Every essential coworker
SUBJECT: Arrest
1) IR/O is respectfully submitting this To From to request a cease to arrests. If you don’t mind putting your family and your
In harm of this virus, that’s on your conscience. At this point, though, you are putting every one else at risk who have to
deal with your arrests. You chose to do search warrants at this time is befuddling to R/O. The fact your bringing people
in on weed pinches is even more vexing. You can say all you want that your still the police. That is fine but think about
Everyone else that has to come in contact with your nonsense. Numbers aren’t an issue , they won’t be for about 8 months
Your spot is safe , trust me! And shame on your Sgts or Lts pushing for this .
2) Reminder, part of the oath we all took was to PROTECT! We may need more of that in the near future
Yes, we have to buy our own supplies. Thanks to a few donors in the Area for purchasing soap and cleaning supplies. At first I thought the department provided the cleaning supplies until someone set me straight. Walgreen, McDonald’s, 7/11’s, banks, restaurants and many more have provided large containers of hand sanitizer and soap for their employees. LA have kits. Uniform or no uniform, we are not equipped to do the job. Safety first!
And this surprises anyone?
What should piss off everyone, is Crimesha taking the vote.
What the fuck is wrong with these idiot voters?
Give them what they vote for. Stop, look, laugh, drive to the next job.
Fuck em!!!
Would anyone expect anything less in this cesspool of crime and corruption?
I'm surprised no post on yesterday's primary with Kim Foxx winning if More and Fioretti would've dropped out Conway might very conceivably won.
Make your own hand sanitizer.
Hand sanitizer recipe
3/4 cup of isopropyl or rubbing alcohol (99 percent)
1/4 cup of aloe vera gel (to help keep your hands smooth and to counteract the harshness of alcohol)
10 drops of essential oil, such as lavender oil, or you can use lemon juice instead.
Amazon has 5 Liter jugs of Aloe gel for $63 prime. Don't rely on 'ole dead eyes for your safety. She ain't your friend.
OT.
Foxx won the primary.
Sickening. Disgusting.
Maybe Webb will bring her down.
Nope, sorry, you’re not on the list. You know who was on the list, all of HQ!! Is that a fcking joke or what!! None for us, but let’s make sure the idiots that deal with the public the least are taken care of. Absolute joke!
Remember these are the protected people hidden away because of their clout, they must be the first to survive this crisis or the backbone of the department will sever. Now back to your canvass gum shoe...
I knew that would happen. The clouted at HQ are who matter. You have a phone call not only do you get a good " spot", you'll get the supplies we should have at the districts.
The un-clouted are the peasants. We are expendable. They don't give a fuck about us.
But at least the tact teams are in uniform..... thank God for that.
Thank Calumet College and the other bullshit colleges for handing out cracker jack degrees which helped promote incompetent people. Thanks the fucked up merit system too.
Stay safe and take care of each other.

Lori step up protection equipment for Cpd and fire IMMEDIATELY! Almighty God bless the police!
A few years back, a cluster of firehouses had an outbreak of MRSA. The city responded by sending a gallon of Simple Green and strawberry scented hand sanitizer that was A) expired by nearly 8 years, B) said hand sanitizer was a pharmaceutical company’s marketing item for a drug that treats MRSA. members who contracted MRSA were deemed “non duty”.
I expect nothing less
No protection for the clowns.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
To the one who posted this. You have no idea what happened behind the scenes to get this ready. News flash, the world is in panic mode and these materials are had to find. You’re upset because your favorite flavor of grape rectal lube is expired, it still probably works. If you want to attack the hierarchy then attack away. The guys whom you spoke to take pride in what they do and are your brothers, treat them as such. We don’t need a broken team, we need a team that stands together, and backs each other.
Met a mailman yesterday who was carrying a couple of bottles of aqua velva. He was using it to sanitize his hands as it contains alcohol. As an added bonus he related that he was being stalked by women all day long.
SCC help I don’t have your email to write to you so here it goes. I’m at call back 2111 W. Lexington. They are saying one of the 311 dispatchers tested positive for COVID19 and another is currently being tested. Police officers share that building with the 311 dispatchers. Share same bathrooms, entrance and exit. There is no wall barrier or any form of separation between officiers and civilians. It’s an open area. Everyone is being very secretive on the 311 side about this situation. First they say someone tested positive then that they are being tested. How do we find out if true. Also wouldn’t everyone have to be quarantined, also 2111 w. Lexington throughly cleaned? They want to keep quiet because this is the back up of OEMC. So what can we do? SCC please help.
I’m sure I’m the 50th person who will have said this. But just like the water at NATO. I honestly hate this city and department so much. Just when I think the hatred can’t get any bigger, it does.
At no time did we say that the materials were for people at HQ. It was for the gang and sat units.
Still bosses out there screaming about numbers. F this job
The joke will be on these asshole bosses when one department member gets infected and it spreads throughout the department.
Guess it’s the idiots that can’t even pass an exam that needs the most protection. Protect the morons that are completely clueless about what to do...
Make sure you don't vote in that medical abusing fraud to Fop president. Don't be fooled by his act . He was never the police .
How quickly we forget all the important things they do at headquarters to keep the citizens of Chicago safe. Like counting different things for their meeting. We need to keep them in a clean environment.
Does anyone know the exact number of sworn personnel that work there and never hit the streets?

What does that have to do with it. What it took to get this ready ??? Take your head out of the bosses asses. There should already be a plan in place and theses items should be readily available for such an emergency. I don't think he is criticizing the team as much as the ones who are suppose to lead the team. If your saying the bosses have done a good job getting the appropriate items needed to the "team" you are mistaken.

Don’t hold your breath, my friend.
Get the lawyers ready! Time to collect

Nothing for the officers at O'hare airport other than hand sanitizer. How many passengers go through the airport daily ... This is a joke !
Is there a Need or is there a Dependency?
Sure it would be nice to have a bit of necessary hygienic supplies available at the workplace but depending on this City is just nuts.
There certainly shouldn’t be any shortage of TP or soap and this has happened many times before when admin dumbfucks don’t order the stuff during normal times. Years ago we had a real moron running the district supply. Things were so unreliable and sporadic, janitors were on strike, not showing up, off weekends, etc. I actually kept hand TP, soap in my locker for those just-in-case situations.
If you want to be safe, you have to be prepared and not dependent on the people around you.
Some like ot hoard, others just buy enough to get buy and others are stocked and sufficiently prepared for anything long term.
The Lyin’ JB Mignon saying the Fed isn’t doing enough. He says IL has stockpiled plenty of PPE kits and have enough to go around, but then in the same sentence says DJT Admin isn’t helping IL and is not giving IL anymore than a standard allotment, which means the same as we were issued last time. JagBag Pigster using every opportunity to stir panic.
What happened to our supply? We still have the same idiots that can’t plan or order things on time and when SHTF is chaos and more disorder than usual.
So as CIty, CPD gets the shipment EQ-Suppl releases the older stock. As disasters occur or don’t, stuff gets stacked on pallets waiting the next great fiasco. There could be pallets of hand sanitizer sitting in boxes somewhere, same morons just forget where they put it. Its management incompetence that’s bungling the logistics. Send out a citywide message to pick stuff up and next thing that happens the E/S is swamped because for some reason these items have to be picked up on that same day only during bidness hours.
Thursday is Soylent Green Day. Send a Unit to pick up your Unit allotment.
One more thing -
Anyone been to a gun store lately?
When the Academy reopens for bidness’ expect that they will claim (another) ammo shortage?
Needless to say Annual FA Qualifications will be postponed and Larri will of course cut that pork from the budget.

You contradicted your own statement. You ragged on the guy posting this then tell them we “need a team that stands together.” You must be inhaling the fumes over at HQ. I really hope you’re enjoying your comfy spot in your bizarre little cubicle at 35th street. Enjoy your Sat/Sun off as well as your RDOs going forward when they unnecessarily cancel ours! You talk about a team united when you’re in a spot that plays by its own rules, makes the rules and doesn’t abide by said rules. Also, please take off your ribbon cluster from your uniform shirt...you look like a stroke.

***********************************************************************
A.) Yes we know full well what happened behind the scenes. We watch our supervisors closely, listen to them fumble on the radio, watch them stumble in training classes, laugh at them sweating at CompStat and read about their exploits daily on this blog and elsewhere. You get paid very well to be ahead of the curve and lead. This has not happened.
B.) The world is not in panic mode. The unprepared, ignorant and weak are. If Police and Fire HQ is in panic mode then that explains a lot. Kinda like your rusty handcuffs.
C.) Rectal tube huh? Not funny but you should read up on Dr. Freud or posts by the Keesing Bandit.
D.) HQ and the District Intelligence Officers have known about Coronavirus since December. It’s your job to prepare our street coppers to face domestic and international threats. Face masks, hand sanitizer, alcohol wipes and latex gloves are not exotic or expensive "materials". These are all over-the-counter items and could have been slowly stocked up on over the last 3 months. Or you could have at least warned us to purchase them on our own and offered reimbursement.
E.) The men and women at the LEMART program seem to have their stuff together. You should have asked them for help. Use the city cellphone or take-home car they give you for something other than chasing young officers or doing personal errands.
F.) Pfft. We are not “brothers” or “sistas”. Once you make lieutenant and above you belong to a protected class and are so far removed from the danger and liability that for all intents and purposes you are no longer a member of the real Chicago Police. Merit promotee or not, you are most likely a liability yourself and not an asset to the officers working the street. The CPD hasn’t been a “family” or "team" for several years and once the JVD verdict and consent decree came down the CPD was broken permanently. Stop trying to hide behind the façade and this pandemic. Your incompetence and/or delusion shows.
hard hats and baby seats have expiration dates too.
it is just a way manufacturers try to limit their liability for older products and get people to buy new stuff.
Just heard a copper in New York was diagnosed with the coronavirus and they had to send 17 other copper home who had contact with him! With numbers like those you could quickly lose your police force. Is there an investigative reporter left in this city that can start digging into why we are so unprepared for a biological event? Why we have no protocols in place to sanitize equipment, vehicles, stations? It's disgusting, embarrassing and frightening.
XXX
Decades of promoting idiots have come to fruition. The is absolutely no leadership on the CPD.
Kimesha still has to win the election and that is going to be against 1 Republican. Maybe Webb will save the County or maybe the suburban vote will do it. Time to put this criminal piece of shit down with her mentor that piece of shit Prickwinkie.

I’m not the original poster, but I never took the post as an attack on the officers passing out the equipment. Everyone knows that supplies are difficult to obtain, that’s why the post about HQ receiving supplies instead of field units is an issue. If HQ didn’t receive priority over field units, then I’d think you’d have informed us of that, or correct the original poster on what they got wrong. I think quite a few people would like to know what’s happening behind the scenes, so please tell us. I’m not being glib, I’d honestly like to know. Also, what the hell is with the grape rectal lube comment, what does that even mean?
To the company-man idiots saying water and sanitizer do not expire.... YOU ARE WRONG.... plastic bpa’s of bottled water corrode over years. It does not go bad a few weeks or months past the expiration date, But expired for years becomes a chemical soup. Those who worked NATO remember the water that was expired by over 4years and tasted like crayons. And HAND SANITIZER loses its concentration ever time!! Once the alcohol content drops below 60% it is worthless.
If someone really wants to get prepared for Coronavirus instead of buying all the toilet paper buy ibuprofen and acetaminophen in case you get fever for 1-6 days.
011 out of cleaning supplies, yet the commander keeps pushing activity and running missions.
FOP. Where’s the help. No masks. No gloves. No sanitizer. Not even alcohol wipes. Shameful
STEP UP. Ask. Business. Ask the police memorial Ask the credit union for donations. We support them. That together we can sure should be ringing out loud and clear. And. I, not hearing anything
To everyone.
The mayors too busy plastering he face all over the news.
Liar she is
I’m helping my partners I share what ever Lysol I. Have for the germ infested beat cars
I bet all those hqndling the elections took home throes sanitizers ins wand of giving them to first responders.
Groot laughs at this but she won't be laughing when a quarter to a third of street officers come down with this and have to quarantine for two weeks.
Someone emailed the manufacturer of the hand sanitizer. They discontinued that particular batch in 2012. Rendering all of the bottles ineffective.
But hey, nice try.
What does the FOP say. Anything at all? Note this bit from the NYPD Sergeants Benevolent Association. “If the NYPD was adequately prepared, we would not be looking at cops as canaries in coal mines,” he told The Post.
“Make no mistake,” Mullins continued. “The police unions will not allow our members to suffer another 9-11 disaster by being used as pawns.” Their union cares and speaks out. What about the local FOP? But NYC doesn't care either. That deblowhole mayor is another little Larry.

OT. I will give major props last night to Sgt A in 012 on third watch. A job came in with a person in respiratory distress. Fire said to have CPD advise they were not going. SGT A went over the air and told fire to know their role and take the job. He said that we did not have the proper equipment to handle the job. Even after the zone said fire still wont take the job. He went back on the zone and said per him dupe it to fire. After going back and forth he called fire and they took the job. Just want to say thanks boss for looking out for us and keep us and our families safe.. thanks for 3rd watch.
In response to Speedbump, I think you
are missing the point. If the dept that
supplies all the sanitizer really took pride
in their work they would ensure their
brothers and sisters in blue had current
supplies. Sanitizer does weaken as it ages.
Why hasn’t the sanitizer been rotated out
of the inventory? Sounds like complacency.
I hope you are taking notes and forwarding
suggestions on emergency preparedness
to the brass as this is not the last pandemic
we’ll see in our lifetime.
Let’s all start pushing in the same direction.
The least you can do is get current handsanitizer
to all stations. It’s embarrassing, sounds like
we are a third world country
May I also suggest you remove the photo of
person run over by vehicle. It’s in poor taste
and I would be upset if he was a member
of my family.
Thank you
Anyone who thinks 35th street is "on the same team" either works there, connected or delusional!,,,,
Home made sanitizers:
1 spray bottle
3 parts alcohol
1 part water
Shake bottle, spray on hands, don’t rub, let dry....
If no alcohol available use Everclear or Vodka ,same proportions
Lastly if can’t find all above use 1 ounce bleach to 1.5-2 pints water
I pray we don’t go the way of the Philly PD

Here we have the Fat Slob Tax Cheating buffoon who is always carping and blame shaming everyone but himself. It's disgusting to see this ball of lard pretend he's leading when in fact all he does is complain. Get over it. Your the Gov. of a bankrupt state. Start leading and using the state and private partnership and other state-wide resources. Tell us something of value and useable information on progress not bitching all the time.
It was great yesterday the bosses in central came in and in not so many words said, the department isn’t providing shit, you’re on your own. Also. Longer shifts and canceled days off are a possibility, increasing your exposure to other people not to mention the usual hazmat homeless people scene in the 002nd district lobby. Tac guys are still locking up one and two baggers and bullshit arrests, bringing vermin into the station. We are so fucked. 80 percent will get the virus all the precautions are to stagger the impact on the hospitals.
Hand sanitizers have an expiration date on their bottle just like toothpaste does. ... Its effectiveness and stability will be well beyond its expiration, although over time the alcohol (active ingredient) in the sanitizer will evaporate and its concentration will fall below its original (typically at least 60%).

Question (1) If I have a Respiratory infection and need to take time off work why should I go on the medical instead of IOD?
(2)If I’m not given adequate or proper equipment to protect myself why is this not a safety grievance city wide?
(3)How many Officers filed exposure to disease and IOD reports at this time????
(4)How many bosses stepped up to protect Their officers with not only paperwork but making a stance?
Basically if we believe we have been exposed how can we protect ourselves without UPSETTING and creating retaliation/hostile work environment. Asking for a coworker 😷😷
OT: City of Highland Park just closed the Police Station to walk-in... When's CPD going to relocate the homeless camped out in the lobbies?
City of Highland Park Suspends Walk-in Services at the Police Department In Response to COVID-19
New staffing plan transitions operations to remote staff where possible
Effective March 19, 2020, the City of Highland Park will suspend walk-in services currently provided at the Highland Park Police Department. Essential services will be offered by appointment only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The City encourages residents to use online or mail services for necessary requests. The action follows guidance from the Illinois Department of Public Health emphasizing social distancing as the most effective method of preventing the spread of COVID-19.
The City’s staffing plan ensures continuity of service in its most critical areas of emergency response and water treatment/distribution, and prioritizes social distancing through staggered shifts and limited non-essential field interactions with members of the public. These changes are part of the City’s emergency response plan and implementation and represent the City’s ongoing effort to balance the community’s needs for administrative services and the best interests of public health.
As part of this plan, the Police Department will implement new protocols to prevent the spread of illness, primarily by resolving non-emergency requests for service via phone. Examples of non-emergency requests include information for police reports, delayed reports, non-emergency calls or ordinance violations.
City Manager Ghida Neukirch stated, “This staffing model will allow us to continue to provide important services in a way that protects the health of residents and City staff.”
Along with the reduction in hours, the following changes will also be implemented:
Urgent requests for vital records and real estate transfer stamps may be accommodated by pre-arranged appointment only, by contacting the Finance Department at finance@cityhpil.com or 847.432.0800.
Certain services will be suspended entirely, including the sale of refuse stickers, parking permits, and vehicle and motorcycle stickers.
Citations for parking permits, vehicle stickers and dog licensing are suspended.

To the idiot poster of 05:34am. Let me guess, a HQ house mouse? Your comment makes no sense what so ever in an attempt to excuse why the front line hasn’t been issued barely anything at all. And get what ready? How is it LAPD is ready? NYPD? Other major Departments?
It sounds like you are upset because you are one of the people who completely dropped the ball and are responsible for putting us at risk. Now please, let the adults continue to talk.
I thought it was no big deal?
Tactical Sgts are still telling troops to be proactive. Disgusting. Feel bad for these millennials with 3 years on that listen to everything supervisors say.
The joke will be on these asshole bosses when one department member gets infected and it spreads throughout the department.
=============
Based on admittedly sketchy data, it would appear like 70-80% of the population will eventually get the disease before herd immunity sets in. So expect that virtually everyone will catch it eventually.
Most of those who get infected will either not even know they have it due to total lack of symptoms, or have such mild symptoms they think of it as a mild cold and it has little effect on them.
Some percentage will become sick enough to seek medical care. Some percentage of those will require hospitalization. Some of those hospitalized will die. At this point the estimates on deaths vary so much that it is hard to make sense of it but it could well be in the millions.
While it is not overtly stated, the tactic being used goes back a long way to deal with contagious diseases. Basically you let it infect the herd as slowly as possible. That is what hand sanitizers, hand washing, social distancing, masks, and other measures do. They do not prevent the disease or change how many people get it. They just slow down the rate of infection so the health care system is not overwhelmed. It will burn out when enough of the herd has been exposed and developed some form of immunity to it.
There is at least some chance that warmer weather will give us a reprieve. But it will be back in the fall if that happens, and historically second waves are worse than the first. But again, it does not really change much. Until enough people develop immunity or some effective treatment or vaccine is developed, the only answer is to slow the rate of infection down.
Incidentally, there is pretty good evidence that universal wearing of masks is effective at reducing the rate of infection. It is not perfect but it reduces the risk of spread from those who are infected and reduces the risk of infection to those who are not infected. It probably also reduces the viral load when an uninfected person is infected which may well reduce the severity of the disease. Unfortunately we have no masks to hand out, not even to medical workers, so the authorities feel the need to lie about why they are telling us not to wear masks.
Don’t forget to swipe in and swipe out.
The #1 concern in this city is that ‘the children’ get their free breakfast and lunch at every CPS location. All tax-paying city workers-make sure you wash your hands.
The first one from patrol or the detective division to get Coronavirus, needs to march on n down to HQ and touch every pump handle on every hand sanitizer in the place. If the entire HQ cleared out for a month nofuckingbody would notice. Don’t forget the doorknobs and pushbars.
Person in our office got the flu. Can all us go home.
I’m employing an out of work mime to conduct all my social interactions.
Just caught the wgn news at 5. What a joke. They did a short clip on protecting the first responders. Showing maywood police with wipes for their cars and equipment. Then they show Chicago with a spokes person. All lies. He fails to say they have no disinfect spray
Or wipes of any sort. Then says everyone got hand sanitizer. Another lie. And oh yes. The sanitizer hasn’t been made since 2012. And had a shelf life for 3 years after. That’s what they past out to some Come on people. Make a big stink. So surprised catanzara isn’t all over this
Be safe everyone.
In light of all this corno virus, why is Bumble Bee Kimble still making decisions at Homan. We have a Lt. and from what we’re hearing, you should have been gone. Kimble is vindictive and you boys and girls better watch your ass because he’s watching to see who he can destroy before he gets dumped to Lt. Cover your Ass until he’s no longer in charge.
Your time is up Ronnie Boy, pack your shit and take that pet monkey of a secretary with you.

Dear Members,
As the COVID-19 epidemic persists, we still have a duty to protect the citizens of Chicago as well as ourselves. One of the best ways to do this is to limit our long-term exposure as much as possible with individuals who may be sick with this virus.
In order to do this in accordance with Special Order S04-22, officers whenever possible can use an Administrative Notice of Ordinance Violation (ANOV) rather than a physical arrest.
Department Members are prohibited from issuing an ANOV if the ordinance violation imposes a jail sentence as the ONLY penalty.
Please note if an individual refuses to sign the ANOV, officers will still have to make an arrest. A list of Municipal Ordinance Violations that can be processed with the issuance of an ANOV will be available on the WIRE under the new COVID-19 tab.
When issuing an ANOV, hearing dates should be scheduled at least 60 days out but within 65 days of the violation using the officer’s court key designation.
For misdemeanor arrests that do not require a court appearance before bonding out, officers may use a revised Ordinance Complaint Form, Special Order S04-23. These forms may be used for misdemeanor retail theft arrests as well as for most misdemeanor arrests.
Exceptions include felony charges, warrant, violation of orders of protection, violations of stalking/no contact offers, domestic-related incidents, child endangerment, and DUI. The offender must be 18 years of age or older and have no active warrants and physical force must not have been used to effect the arrest.
The Ordinance Complaint Form acts as the personal recognizance bond. Thus, the offender does not need to be transported to the district.
I also ask that officers only enforce parking ordinances when they are critical to public safety.
The objective of these changes is to limit the exposure of officers to individuals who might be sick. That means putting fewer people in our vehicles, in the stations, and within our personal space.
This is a difficult time, and the situation regarding the COVID-19 outbreak is changing rapidly. I want to thank everyone for their effort thus far. We are all in this together. I will do my best to ensure you are informed of the latest updates.
If you have any questions please email AskHQ@chicagopolice.org.
Stay well,
Charlie Beck
Interim Superintendent
Every day police officers and firefighters risk getting infected with the Corona virus. The more exposure to humans increases your chances of getting infected with the Corona virus. What has the city done to help police officers and firefighters????
I truly believe each one of us will slowly get infected with the Corona virus!
This is what decades of merit promotions have wrought. Incompetence at the top resulting in a failure of leadership. One week into the shutdown of society and there is no plan.
Why would you want to increase the exposure to the police to the Corina virus in a 12 hour tour???? It is very dangerous and unsafe. CPD is very illogical in orchestrating 12 hour days and cancelling RDO's. FOP stays silent as usual.
Make the exempt personnel the cit responders they can be on call and go out when needed. Saving the district personnel to handle the jobs
Train them for the job
They are the police. Right
Whatever is gonna be is gonna be
Relax
They passed out hand sanitizer out south
She won because the stalking horses did their job perfectly. Thanks More and Firoretti you pukes.

The hand sanitizer was discontinued in 2012. This means the city had it since 2012 or well before. Instead of distributing it to the troops it sat in a city warehouse somewhere. So somewhere the person who is responsible for ordering and reordering the sanitizer found a way to make their job easier. Solution was to sit on the sanitizer and not distribute it. That way it shows full stock and lazy ass doesn't ever have to order more. Just imagine how much else is sitting somewhere, expired, and not being utilized.
Here are some examples.
Bottled water for NATO, EXPIRED.
Bottled water for Blackhawks championship parade Grant Park, EXPIRED (this water was also handed out to the citizens as well as police).
Foxx is in like Flynn. Enjoy all the fun you More and Firoretti voters. You did a great job. But you knew better. Enjoy the carnage you voted for it if you didn't vote for Conway.
About 15 years ago when I was in 019 FLU, I asked the Exterminator what was in the powder he was mixing and spraying. Jerk tossed the empty but still powdery-inside plastic bag on the desk. I heat sealed it in an evidence bag and started to research it, on what little there was available on the internets. Before I got too far someone had ratted me out to desk Sgt DC who stomped back and demanded to know what I was doing on the DEPARTMENT computer. When I said, This guy was spraying poison, WE shouldn’t be inhaling it! This JO then told me to research on my OWN time. So I did and then filed a safety complaint.
Fast forward a few months and now the exterminator has some gel he puts along the floor/wall edges... no more sprays while the space is occupied, which is all the time in that space, and sullen looks but never says a word to me.
Long story short, keep making complaints, stand up for each other, because every so often some progress gets made.
This is what the City should be doing as well. Arizona is doing it.
Sheriff Mark Lamb, Pinal County Sheriff's OfficeAGENCY
COVID-19 UPDATE
Effective immediately, PCSO will be closing the public lobbies at all of our substations and jail to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Our locations remain fully staffed. Please call our receptionist if you have any questions.
In addition, for low and medium priority calls, going forward you may be asked to complete your report over the phone. Expanding over-the-phone reports will help limit exposure to the public and for our deputies. For high priority calls, our deputies will still respond in person. Please call 911 for emergencies and 520-866-5111 for non-emergencies.
"Keeping the community and our deputies safe and healthy is our number one priority. We won't stop doing our duties because of COVID-19, but you may see a few changes," said Sheriff Mark Lamb. "Please call us if you need us, we are in this together."
Here's proof I am insane. For God's sake, become an stay fetal.
There! I've said it now a thousand times on this blog and there are still morons on the job making street and traffic stops, plus actually making B.S. arrests.
This new department has gone completely fucking soft in the head.

And here ya go......
The Mrs. says that since we're spending so much more time at home, we should "spoon".
What the hell is spoon?
I saw a guy once on Johnny Carson play the spoons. Is that the same?
Kimesha Fuxx and Marie “AOC” Newman have both won the primaries. Disgusting, crime loving leftists.
Groot a racist , police checking ID of people entering city hall ?
Democrats say it’s racist to ask for ID to vote
If you feel sick , stay home. No safety equipment means a greatly increased risk of infection. Nobody will beleive the Chgo police dept. didn't give officers masks, gloves , sanitary wipes for squad cars, etc... When the public , health officials find out , were golden. Stay at home.
Did 7th District distribute all the hand sanitizers allotted for officers to the community?
The entire world has shut down, except for 011

If this had come in the form of a letter delivered by the USPS, it probably would have had a Los Angeles postmark on it.
*COVID-19 WARNING* PAY ATTENTION NUMB NUTS.
An officer walks into roll call. Sits down. Amongst other officers obviously. When the roll call is over this officer informs the cheater LT that he came into contact with someone with Covid-19. She sends him to the hospital. No one else who he made contact with is allowed to go. Then she has late roll call in the same room. 2nd watch sealed off the room. And why was she telling other officers that the officer who went to the hospital tested negative when the result doesn't come out for a day or two. Not to mention the fact that it's a HIPPA violation. Unless she had a copy of the test results prior to the test even being issued.
11:36 AM SPEEDBUMP
We've been saying that for almost a year.
Does not belong here.
No freaks allowed here.
The Chicago Way lives and breathes, and the coronavirus is not going to kill it.
Again what is the FOP doing? They didn't really say much, certainly not in the angry tone necessary. What will they do to support the troops? Love that line by Cauliflower Charlie, "We are all in this together". Ya right you, Larry and the city really care. Yet another grossly overpaid goof.
Groot and Beck slithering like the snakes they are trying to get out of the expired sanitizer news. Lies are all they know. WGN and their investigators, they just read the blog. And they can't even proof their article. Professional journalists, sure thing.

***Absolutely Right!! Hey Big Mouth Catanzara, how about speaking up like you boast in roll calls about sticking up for us...heres your chance.
There is an metal cabinet in the bulk inventory room in 003 full of brand new gas masks from the 60's if anybody's interested.
CPD is run by a bunch of idiot's !!!!!
Why the fuck would you want the police to work a 12 hour tour of duty and cancelling RDO's and exposing the police to a greater increase of the Corona virus infection??????? UNBELIEVABLE
Chicago PD would be fucked if we had a 911 like in New York !!!!!!
it is definately your employers duty to provide you with ppe's comenturate with the risk. its federal law infact. however the lord takes care of those who take care of themselves. seems like EVERYONE is dependant on uncle sugar these days for EVERYTHING? every little thing that happens the first collective gasp is " whats the govt doing about this " . ive always been prepared but since 911 i always make sure i have everything i need stocked up. it was all very cheap when nobody else wanted it. at times you wonder why you have all this shit. this is not one of those times. hope this is a learning experience for the amazon police, who have never seen bare shelves and never ever had a problem buying whatever they wanted, their only issues were paying their credit cards. went buy a huge suburban gun store today, gun pickups only, outside, stores closed, million rounds of ammo gone. next time everything is normal and on sale which could be a long time, start stocking your bunker, we will probably have an epidemic every election from now on. welcome to venuezala suckas, vote for bernie and dont forget to swipe ! wonder what my 20 k rounds of 5 cent 9 mm and 5 k rounds of 12 gauge are worth now lol ?
"...what the hell is spoon..."
Spooning lessons are available at my pretty loft. It always is better after several of my famous white wine spritzers. Let's see what pops up.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
