Three Days?

  • A 58-year-old man was found dead Thursday morning in Grant Park with stab wounds to the neck and back, after a woman called police when she saw him on the ground in the same spot for a third day in a row, according to police.

    About 9 a.m. Thursday, Chicago police responded to a call of a man found unresponsive in the 1100 block of South Michigan Avenue, near the south end of Grant Park. The man was pronounced dead on the scene about 9:30 a.m., according to officials. Chicago police have since reclassified the death as a homicide.

    Following an autopsy Friday, the Cook County medical examiner’s office determined the man, who identity was still not being released, died from multiple sharp force injuries in a homicide.

    A woman told police she had seen the man in the same spot Tuesday and Wednesday, before deciding to call police Thursday morning.
And it's been warm for the last few weeks.

Most of the homeless pick their spot and sleep there on a daily basis. A lot of them have quite the odor so a bad smell may not surprise a lot of people. Sad way to go, crazy homeless guy or not, his life should matter to someone. If she seen him, so should’ve the hundreds of others who passed by over that time period. I guess everyone was distracted by all the constant police bashing protesters and didn’t want to be seen talking to a cop in the park. The only thanks we get now is in whispers as they hurry away from us. That whole area stinks or urine and dog poop.

Was the body mostly concealed or was she afraid he was a zombie?

Maybe she thought it was "art".
She probably viewed the body from at least
20 feet away.

The woman was probably assaulted during a live morning or evening newscast. The camera operator quickly pivoted to a Chicago River shot. To trick the public that the downtown area is safe (per Lightfoot’s orders), NBC focused their 22 minute ‘news’ on the grieving family of the deceased Roseland scooter Operator ‘convinced’ that the CPD are at fault and are covering it up, heavy rain in the forecast, fallen trees in the suburbs, hot temperatures on the horizon, bad restaurant owners not social distancing their patrons, stabbing in Indiana, bad Trump recklessly opening schools in the Fall, college sports cancelled-oops, we’re out of time!

As a resident of south Michigan Avenue, I wasn’t surprised to see about the dead man in Grant Park. The alderman Sophia King has been totally unresponsive to the large number of aggressive beggars in the community for a long time. I am awaken daily by screaming beggars in front of my building. King has also been unresponsive as has the 1st district command staff (Pigott and Alderen) to the constant drug dealing, public drinking, gang banging and drug use in the skate park in the south end of grant park. . Pigott, Alderen and O’Shea , three clouted merit hacks are too busy sucking up to King and they play nice with the criminals at her direction. Repeated emails to Michael Kelly, the superintendent of the park district have gone unanswered. Many thugs come off the redline to use the skate park, harassing elderly people in the community, stealing and acting like fools. A once good neighborhood is being destroyed by King’s restorative justice program. She also has refused as has Kelly to requests to clean the graffiti on the columbus statue in Grant Park. Welcome to a new ghetto in the south loop thanks to the refusal of the administration and racist cop hating Lori to their jobs. Shoot will be next.

People hesitate to call 911, not wanting to be a "karen" complaining about other people's antisocial and/or offensive behavior. I can understand her hesitancy. It's now considered acceptable for people to sleep in park, to defecate on sidewalk, to walk around half-dressed. We've had a homeless woman in Streeterville casually poop in the planters, in full view, as if the railing is a toilet-seat - bet no one's called her in.

The exuberance of Larri re-opening the Grants Park (to be renamed) was just too much for the chap? Been locked down for 16 weeks, “getting his footing back” takes a stroll in Larri’s public safety ecosystem and gets stabbed in the neck and back by a feral thug who also was just getting “back on line” from under lockdown.

Dead at least three days in the park.
Everyone just walking by, probably just used to see vagrants sleeping, lounging milling about all the time. Took an abnormally overwhelming stench to get the attention of just one of thousands tolerant libs that passed him by for 3 days.

But see a coyote or a piping plover and not only do you have police notified and on scene in minutes, but the media, animal control, naturalists, animal rights activists and the tolerant lakefront lib onlookers swarming in.

Yikes! Laying dead in the park for three days kind of sucks.

But on the upside, the 58-year-old dead dude would be pleased to know that he'll still be voting in November's election.

Mayor Larry Light-Fuhrer assured Chicagoans that if death comes from catching a stray bullet, or random stab wounds from a 'mostly peaceful protestor', or from catching the COVID-19 virus, they WILL be voting come November.

'No amount of Voter Suppression or Intimidation from the White House will prevent dead Chicagoans from Voting. We have an election we're trying to steal, dammit to hell.', the vile little Troll screeched as her tiny little feet took her away from the podium.

Whooooo... Brother, we get over-heated
and start sweating profusely at the memory...

The smell...

The hum of the blow flies,
and hearing them ricochet
off the windows as you walk
up to the house/apartment.

The sight...

What's left of somebody's somebody
melted into the shag carpet.

Not enough mental bleach in this world
for The Policeman to "unsee" that.

Funny... Some braying jack-asses howl
about how it's somehow "wrong" or "unfair"
large urban center Policemen be allowed
to seek and get treatment for PTSD.

People in general are from clueless
to pretty damned stupid. To wit:


"Hey! Tell me what's the worst
thing you've ever seen?"

We give it to the fool.
Straight. No chaser.

Then... When their eyes bulge
from their sockets in horror and
they can barely stop themselves
from retching to the point of
puking on top of their own shoes.

"STAAAHPIT!"
>Urp!<
"Oh God! YOU HAVE TO BE LYING!"
>Peeee-YOOOOK!<
"Ugh! LA-LA-LA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
>Fingers in ears<

Heh...

Aren't these adult children funny
when they try to get in Police Business?

Next thing you know they'll be all up on themselves
trying to tell Policemen how to do their jobs.

Fuck them anyways...

Dude here gets it--us civilians have to deal with urban decay and the predatory political bullshit driving it too. Plenty of cases of someone getting their life and career ruined by a vampire lawyer or social-media lynch mob for assuming this or that, or interfering with the mayor's favorite voting bloc's ability to destroy everything, or whatever the hell. I had to step around passed-out bums the last two times I had the misfortune of needing to go into downtown Minneapolis-St. Paul, just around the business/convention areas. These ones didn't look dead, but so what if they were? Not my fucking problem that the city doesn't respect itself; I didn't vote for those assholes, I don't live in the county or work for one of the crappy downtown corporations financing the mayhem. Oh, and this was a couple of years ago, point being that MSP was a shithole well before the Floyd thing.

You guys are fucking mean. I just thought I happened to see him at the same point in his sleep routine 2 days in a row. On the third day, there was a pigeon sitting on his head and I could see where other birds had shat on him, pretty much like the elephant carcasses you see on PBS. That is when I decided to call 9-11.

While waiting for the police to arrive, another speed-walker accused me of calling only because the man in tbe supine position was black. I replied that he might be black, but he is surely fucking dead! He asked me if I tried to rouse him? I told him a stark naked 25 year-old centerfold could not rouse him! He is absolutely fucking D-E-A-D! So much for me being a good citizen. Fuck you guys! F.U.L.L.

I go to throw out the garbage on Wednesday. I open the lid and there is this small raccoon in the can. I knock it over so the little critter can mosey along and as soon as his feet hit the ground he doubles back and tries to kill me. I ran and grabbed a broom and held him off till I could climb onto my truck and after a while he just leaves. I tell my story to my wife and she says "Oh, he was in there on Monday too!" She thought he was coming and going but the fucking thing was in there for 3 days! Couldn't get out.
