CWB Homerun on Manpower

Building on the manpower shortage that we've been mentioning for months now, the only actual investigative reporters in Chicago put together this bombshell of a report:

  • Sunday evening, officers in one of Chicago’s largest police districts worked their entire shift without having a single sergeant on the streets to supervise them.

    And cops who worked the next shift in the same district also patrolled without any sergeants supervising.

    The lack of oversight was not a scheduling snafu, according to two sources. The district simply doesn’t have enough sergeants to cover all of the shifts, they said.

    After hearing about that — and confirming the situation by reviewing schedules from the station house — CWBChicago took a look at CPD’s staffing numbers. We found something incredible.

What they discovered is that every single police district in Chicago - except 016 - is down double-digit percentages, in some cases 20% and more. 016 is only down 6% - so all 22 Districts are down.

So where did they all go?

  • In total, there are 1,376 fewer officers assigned to districts now than in April. Where have the cops gone?

    According to OIG, the department lost 354 of them to retirements and other separations. CPD’s five detective divisions have gained about 79 investigators.

    But most of the rest appear to have gone to citywide teams that Brown created when he redesigned the department in July.

These are the CST and CIRT teams we've been pointing out that are stripping manpower from what Brownie called "the backbone of the Department." Brownie probably ought to be referencing a body part about six inches lower than the spine. 

CWB has tables and links to all sorts of information that any media source (or citizen) could FOIA and see how Groot, the Department and even aldercreatures are either lying or being lied to. Remember that aldercreature who traded a vote for a property tax hike in exchange for cops? He was lied to:

  • In 2015, Lakeview Ald. Tom Tunney (44th) voted in favor of a major property tax increase after he said he received assurances that the Town Hall Police District would receive 35 more police officers, to a total of at least 366 cops.

    Tunney began sending copies of the district’s monthly staffing numbers to his constituents in a weekly email. The last time he did that was on June 19, when Town Hall had 391 officers.

    Since then, the district’s manpower has fallen every month to its current strength of 329 officers, according to OIG. That’s far below the 366-cop minimum that Tunney said he was promised in exchange for his property tax vote five years ago. [a 10% reduction - SCC]

This post by the CWB blog is everything an investigative report ought to be - in depth, focused, citing numerous sources, and holding government to account. Anyone calling themselves "reporters" ought to study this post and attempt to emulate it. Go click on the link up top and give them some eyeballs.

It’s simple. This will be the end of Tact Teams. Not too hard to figure this out. It started with covid arrest citations. Nobody cares about dope arrests. Makes Tact useless, that’s why they are in uniform still, since May. Now the first thing they do with these young ones getting detailed is get them gas mask fitted. Pretty soon they get that NATO training that we all got when we worked at tact back then. Suddenly you have a 800 man unit that is trained for rapid deployment for social uprising. Their not asked to get heads the down time, just blue cards!
Kind of a SOG/ SOS/TRU//MSF unit without headaches. ? Now think about that you tact guys! Ask your self, have your bosses asked about heads?or blue cards?

Awww... Lakeview traded a "yes" vote to get more cops. So they thought.

Well bucko: Austin and Englewood and a few other hot spots seem to have a say in where the limited manpower gets used. They did not have to bargain regarding their vote

Downtown and any part of the city where statues of "colonizers" are erected might get a say as well when the crime starts to swing higher. That is not leaving out the need to protect Queen Groot and her house at all costs.

If Biden fails to get 270 electoral votes due to some court cancellations or state legislatures reusing to send delegates per shady election outcomes... I am sure manpower will be less, your traded vote notwithstanding, as there will be mostly peaceful protests (some fiery) to deal with in other spots of this city.

Odd the ranks of the criminals never run low on manpower. Enjoy the tax hikes! At least that mistake in Lakeview's vote was not made twice, yet Groot got her way regardless.

OT kind of. Just read the Trib article about carjackings. Up 125% and arrests up sharply according to some CPD mouthpiece. Arrests up to a whole 16% which means 84% get away it. But the real story is what happens to that unlucky 16% arrested. Answer is absolutely nothing, get probation or a hand slap or possibly a pat on the back. There is no criminal justice in Chicago any more. The city has become. Sanctuary for violent criminals. Felons with guns ok, armed robbery pleaded down to much lessor crime. Shooting someone accidental discharge if that. No such thing as assault on law enforcement.

I worked in a manpower short unit that had not enough Sgts as well. Each watch without one, a PO/Det was assigned to the sheets and paid as a supervisor for a shift. Sgt. furlo season was interesting. This went on for a while until there was a beef from an arrestee and downtown learned that on a regular basis, there was no supervisor they could blame or use for cover.

I'd like to see the sheets from that unit. There has been all kinds of shenanigan's with the sheets lately, and I'm willing to bet more than once a name was listed as a supervisor that wasn't a supervisor at all.

Some officers in my unit filed a safety grievance on low manpower to no avail. The grievance was acknowledged, but never heard from again as far as I know. Funny how that happened.

Be careful boys and girls. The times aint a changing for a while....

I’m in the CST thing, it’s ridiculous. The amount of bodies never ends, it’s like every month more bodies are coming in, we don’t have lockers we don’t have anywhere to put them. I was not reverse seniority, I didn’t leave a district via volunteer, I was with the gang teams before they were disbanded. And before people start talking about “two year wonders”, go take a look at the seniority of the old gang teams and now CST, a lot of us aren’t spring chickens. Plenty of us who’ve been at this over 15 years. Some have/almost have 30. When we were gang teams there were a lot of teams filled only half way, full teams became 8 man teams. And most of them never ran at full capacity. Now? We have more people than we know what to do with. We went from 8 man teams to 10 man teams. Then they just kept bringing people over where we now have 12 man teams and some have 13 or 14 guys on it. They just keep stripping the districts of man power to force on us bodies we don’t need, want, or even have room for. Here’s the real kick on the cock, the kids the brought over via reverse seniority with 2 years on, they all have the option to re-up for another 90 day detail. And from what I’m seeing, a lot of them are. And ultimately they have the choice at the end of the detail to write a to:from to stay permanently. I hate to break it to you guys, a lot of this manpower isn’t ever coming back to the districts until brownie is gone and this CST thing is destroyed. A lot of the kids are going to volunteer to stay permanently, just like brownie wanted. Stay as safe as you can everyone especially now that your backup has been largely taken away so brownie can have his stupid citywide teams and pretend like he reinvented the wheel. Good luck everyone, keep you heads down the best you can until retirement comes.

These units will have long term negative consequences. The new people who went there have been ruined by the early ducks for 3 blue cards. These are the 2 year officers that the city needed to get at least a few years of proactive policing out of. Now they think they have accomplished something and want to go home when they write 3 blue cards, make 0 arrests and handle 0 jobs.

Those that are left in the districts are fed up with the job after they were left to handle the workload of these officers and always still work a full tour. It also did not help to have the department mandate that the newest cars go to these teams. These cars were taken directly from the patrol officers actually doing this thankless job.

OT - RIVERDALE, Ill. – The search continues for a man who prompted an Amber Alert Friday after he allegedly killed a brother and sister in Riverdale.

A 1-year-old boy was abducted from a home in the 14000 block of South Tracy Avenue. At around 5:10 p.m., authorities said the 1-year-old boy is safe after he was dropped off at a police station.

Police believe the boy’s father, Clarence Hebron, killed a brother and sister in the early morning hours of Friday.

Clarence Hebron, 32, who is 5’6″ and weighs 135 lbs. is still at-large, police said. He has black hair and brown eyes.

He is believed to be driving a 2009 Silver Dodge Caravan with Illinois license plate CA96676.

The victims of the double homicide have been identified as brother and sister Jessica Beal, 26 and Damien Beal.

On Friday night, family gathered for a vigil to remember the Beals and to demand justice.

“He ain’t got no momma anymore,” sister Ebony Williams said. “I want justice for you Jessica, please.”

****Last April, Hebron was fleeing police when he crashed in the 400 block of West 59th Street, killing a woman.

Family told WGN News the baby is in the hospital as of Friday night for an evaluation.

If you see Hebron, call 911.


He killed someone fleeing from the police in April and was out on the street 7 months later to commit this double homicide???? Was he even charged in that case or did Crimsesha blame the police for chasing him and let him go???

What a travesty, for example the 012th district had close to the same manpower in the early 90’s. When you consider that at that time the 013 district had around 300 you see how bad manpower is. Then manpower would have been around 625 for both districts. Today the same geographic area is covered by 321, a cut of almost half. When you consider the population explosion of the area the true magnitude of the problem can be seen.

One of these "newspapers" uses writers from "community based, not for profit" propaganda machines to slant their stories. I'm pretty sure you can guess who owns these "not for profit" mills that churn out these "reporters". My guess is these are also non union writers, freelancers.

Being the only sgt is manageable if it happens once in a while. When it’s consistent, that’s when you start having problems. There should never be only one sgt on the watch unless it’s an emergency. If it’s happening all the time then the commander needs to do something about it and demand more sgts.

If you want to follow the money trail to Illinois and all the other Democratic governors follow this guy on Twitter. True patriot. Let our public officials in Illinois we are on to them and won't let this stand. Forget about Trump for a second, this election is about control. Control that will never subside. If you love your country, your children, your life, don't be silent. This is for Democrats and Republicans alike. This is US vs. THEM, not Democrats vs. Republicans, don't fall for all the race, Trump hate, it is about controlling US.

BLM -- take a look at Biden's cabinet. See any black or brown faces? Do you have a seat at the table. Ice Cube was right, they are playing African Americans.

The police are not your enemy. Racism is not your enemy. We all need to rise up together, black, white, Democrat and Republican, or we will lose this wonderful country of ours. Trump messed up the master plan and they are using systemic whatever to defeat us.

Democrats, don't get played again.

The city needs to hire more police, it’s that simple. Taking officers from districts and putting them wherever they want is their prerogative, we are all patrolman, to be used at their discretion. Beefing up the CST or whatever other unit they want is really not a big deal, they are backfilling it with low seniority police. They need to put out a No-Jo and make it a legit unit, and put the police with no time on, back in the districts, to learn the job. The coppers complaining about CST, are the coppers who are the cry babies on the watch, the ones who worry about everyone else but themselves! Quit hating on the blue shirts in CST and CIT, & what ever mobile it is now,, it’s the know it all white shirts who are trying reinvent the wheel, with this experiment. Show up for work, do your job and worry about yourself, that’s the advice I leave you with!

It’s simple. This will be the end of Tact Teams. Not too hard to figure this out. It started with covid arrest citations. Nobody cares about dope arrests. Makes Tact useless, that’s why they are in uniform still, since May. Now the first thing they do with these young ones getting detailed is get them gas mask fitted. Pretty soon they get that NATO training that we all got when we worked at tact back then. Suddenly you have a 800 man unit that is trained for rapid deployment for social uprising. Their not asked to get heads the down time, just blue cards!
Kind of a SOG/ SOS/TRU//MSF unit without headaches. ? Now think about that you tact guys! Ask your self, have your bosses asked about heads?or blue cards?

Right now they are just getting the citizens used to the absence of police. If the near future there will be no police. And there will be no guns according to Biden & Harris. They need to eliminate police and gun ownership in order to inflict the populace with their radical agenda. Best to neutralize the resistance. Hi dude, I am Beatoff O’Rourke and I am here to confiscate your guns on behalf of Joe and Kamala.

No guns?!? 😂😂. Bet you said that when Obama got elected in too. Guns aren’t going anywhere just like abortion. Sick of hearing about it.

So I go downstairs to do an e-crash in the roll call room and there are about 10 coppers just sitting there with their eyes glued to their iPhones looking like zombies. This was one of those sat teams or whatever the hell they’re calling them nowadays.

I asked a guy if they were having roll call soon. He said no. These goofs had a 1700 roll call and had been sitting down there until 1900.

To make matters worse we had 10 99 units that day.

So these bums are just sitting there doing nothing while 10 of us are pushing a beat car solo.

This is incomprehensible stupidity when you couple the fact that we are sending three more units downtown every day and, get this, they are all 10-4. Bahahaha!

I don’t know who strategized this idiocy, but it is laughable at best, malicious at worst.

Man your watch/beat cars first. When your watch is fully staffed, then you can create your little do nothing BS units.

And downtown units don’t need to be 10-4. For god’s sake they are sitting there watching Hulu or Netflix half the time

Here is what Tunney wrote in his newsletter immediately after the vote. He calls out Brown in the last sentence:

“Yes, I did vote for a property tax increase in 2015 demonstrating I’m not afraid to take an unpopular vote. But, I was very public with the fact that my vote was to ensure more police resources in the 44th Ward and, in order to provide our families with a competitive, high quality, neighborhood high school, $25 million in capital investments for Lake View High School. The investments in Lake View High School were made and the police resources came, but have once again been reduced as the new police superintendent has prioritized citywide units as opposed to district policing and beat integrity.”

CWB should FOIA Tunney’s budget questions and CPD’s answers for the last few years. Lots of good info CPD doesn’t like to make public.

The NRA, with the most powerful lobbying group in the world, has been pretty quiet of late. Have you heard much for them in support of Trump? All the DNC would need to do is to have a few mass murders of civilians and get the MSM in on it and watch the pressure (and money) placed on the corrupt people in Congress. Stock up now, buy a pallet of ammo, because they know who the gun owners are. Have a few voluntary gun buy backs, have some debates, throw a lot of money around, and once you get that majority in the Senate (Georgia will be another mail in fraud) they start to rip apart the Constitution.

Trump was the last Republican president, and a great one at that. We will be entering an era of darkness and it will impact all of us, Democrats and Republicans alike and we will be asking some day, how did this all happen. Answer: 2020

to the poster of "017 is the lamest district in the city with a ton of goofball officers." please get your info straight before posting. one its one of the largest district in the city. it is one of the most undermanned districts in manpower due to the current events before covid and the downtown detail. 017 manpower has been going down for the past few years. A lot of the older officers have been promoted or retired, that resulted in low manpower to its current levels. that being said, the district's crime has grown. A lot of gang conflicts have grown from last year to present day. to say that a ton of goofball officer, every district has it share but to lump the whole district into that category is stupid. 017 district officers are hard working who try to the job with the limited resources. 017 district has new officers who are learning the job and doing what they can to help police the 17 district. your are dumb to post something without knowing the full story which leads me to believe you are one of the goofball officers in your district who's in a fast district wanting to come to 17 district but has no time. its really easy to type something that they dont know. we're all in this together, we're one department and your post seriously insulted every officer who works in this department.
