Old Quota Fax
The Department Intranet is a treasure trove to the curious.
Remember the on-going VSWO grievance? The people in charge (like Cmdr Stevens) making up their own "house rules" and denying Officers the opportunities to work OT based on numerous Contract violations that is going to end up costing the City hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Here's something from 2013, posted by then-Sgt Jill Stevens making up a work rule that violated quite a few General Orders, Department Policy and perhaps a State Law? We aren't sure what dates conflict with which (click for larger version):
All those numbers? Those are what are called quotas.
And what do we know about quotas?
This took years to be put into writing, but....:
After years of Department denials and years of being confronted with evidence to the contrary, someone was finally forced to put the "no quota" directive to paper. But it went on for years before and continues to go on behind the scenes in Units where if you bitch about it, you get dumped back to the District.
Maybe the VSWO grievance will finally put an end to one part of it.

Quotas are good! Just ask Harvard?
Are you arresting your quota of wypipo? If you don't, you are obviously a racist white supremacist.
OT - Movie trailer for "THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAGICAL NEGROES".
"For centuries, there has been a society hidden in plain sight, working in secret to protect Black people from harm. It’s called THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MAGICAL NEGROES."

Both whites and blacks are trashing the movie trailer in the YT comments section.
Someone should pull the stats of how all those categories declined with the demise of VRI.
The department is filled with incompetence. Most supervisors are idiots.
Yeah, maybe... if things were legit.
“The people in charge (like Cmdr Stevens) making up their own "house rules" and denying Officers the opportunities to work OT based on numerous Contract violations that is going to end up costing the City hundreds of thousands of dollars.“
Let’s not forget Lt. Allyson Johnson, Star #549, who’s already been quietly removed from the SES and hidden in Unit 192.
Also, let’s not omit Sergeant Michael Bartz, Star #2364 and Sergeant Janice Brown, Star #2512, both also responsible for reviewing and recommending suspensions.
And if you’ve been on the job for more than a minute, you know supervisors are a protected CPD species who will have subordinates take their weight and fall on the sword. So here’s where officers who initiated the suspensions and processed appeals need to be mentioned. They are, also per FOIA request and in no particular order, PO John Maggi, Star #17753, PO Evelyn Perez, Star #3430 PO Joseph Stritzel, Star #16341. PO “CJ Loughney”, PO “S. Barber”, and PO “EABUDAYEH” also appear as participants in the “FORM PREPARED BY” field of "Guideline Violation - Recommendation for Suspension" forms.
Would ya believe there’s even MORE people involved? There sure are, but I’ll introduce them another time.

So what you’ve presented here could ostensibly open up a TON more grievances and class action lawsuits. This dumb bitch Stevens based assignments to VRI on activity quotas and not seniority??!!! And now she’s prohibiting assignments by arbitrarily interpreting the “rules” she and others MADE UP!!??? So there’s now a clear pattern of her and the department violating not only the contract but the law as well. Quotas in LE are ILLEGAL. And fuck these Stupidvisors who thought they’d be all cute and call their demands for activity “indexes”. Hundreds of thousands of dollars you say? This has the potential to go into the several millions. Everyone involved with this complete abuse of power needs to be held punitively responsible on top of administratively responsible. You listening FOP??? This is absolutely HUGE. Thousands of POs harmed over the years. And there’s proof? Holy fuck things are about to get crazy.
Whomever made that quota was much higher in rank than a Sgt.
Someone comes up with something as illegal and unethical as quotas; AND they get promoted twice, AND they get assigned to an a position that metes out disciplinary actions that require common sense and ethics?
WTF is Worng with the CPD?
Speaking of Quotas? Has someone run the numbers on the disparate disciplinary results? Is a certain CPD Commander disciplining certain races or sexes harsher than others? That could be worth serious cold hard federal court discrimination judgments.
Why should CPD Officers be exempt from winning the Ghetto Lottery?
The Boss Stevens should be fired for the Quotas which is an illegal order!
This could cost the city rightfully so millions of dollars because they have idiots in charge. They’re clueless. They caused all of this. What’s the old adage a fish stinks from the head down
Please place Stevens in a beat car in 3 on third watch.
Have the commander perform the tasks upon/with the community.
Do a little digging and you will find out that some of these numbers crazed bosses were total pooches when they were in patrol IF they were ever in patrol.
A blast from the past.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Stevens. Both Jill and her brother Matthew. She’s never done a lick of real work so what does the department do? Promote her over and over again. Matthew makes sergeant and is tucked away in a nice NorthSide district until his ascension into the detective division, even though he’s never done any detecting. Thanks to their daddy, a retired copper hooked in with the other hack bosses that just won’t go away or die off. Even in retirement. Entitled strokes still living up the Friends and Family program of CPD. The only thing that’s slowed down these goofs is the other set of goofs, the fratern-a-bros.
Coppers under attack by the animal savage again:

Hey daddy, thanks for my spot, yours truly Jill Stevens.
Bunch of idiots running the department
Holy shit this just keeps getting better and better. I always knew that we were an incompetent and corrupt department especially when it comes to supervision and nepotism and clout but seeing all the pieces come together and it all spelled out is insane. These people need to be held punitively responsible, demoted to civil service rank and sent to districts on the opposite side of the city from where they live just like they would do to us nobody’s. This shit is disgusting and I hope everyone that got screwed gets paid.
Jill is as incompetent as they come. F’ed up everything she touched.
...Also, let’s not omit Sergeant Michael Bartz, Star #2364 and Sergeant Janice Brown, Star #2512, both also responsible for reviewing and recommending suspensions.
Sgt. Janice Brown? Formerly Janice Wilson aka Janice 3000+(Test score)? NOBLE and Kenneth Johnson took her from never going to get promoted house mouse to being Sgt house mouse. Maybe if someone dug into her OT shenanigans, she'd think twice about screwing over others.
...Is a certain CPD Commander disciplining certain races or sexes harsher than others? That could be worth serious cold hard federal court discrimination judgments.
Why should CPD Officers be exempt from winning the Ghetto Lottery?
NAME THEM! SHAME THEM! Gold braid, pension stealing,double-dipping, mostly merit, retire as head of security, do-nothing Commanders. Don't protect them. BLAME THEM!
How about suing old Jill baby class action lawsuit? Wonder if any lawyers are interested

Johnson’s the worst .
Love how the connected (JILL STEVENS) work in an office for years now they are qualifiued as commanders to lead!!!!!!!
Someone should pull the stats of how all those categories declined with the demise of VRI
When you finish, post the results.
People love to talk about merit, then Jill needs to be in the conversation!! Never had a hard day on the job! Just hidden by daddy & promoted well beyond what she should have been!
3:21am. You must not have any time on the job, and dont dont what VRI was lol. It was spelled out in CLEAR what the parameters were in order to qualify for days of VRI, it wasn't a secret. The secret is the arbitrary vetting of punishment for missing days that were assigned.
What's the status of the Dougherty lawsuit? The city is already on the hook for wquite a bit of money and hours owed. Geiger where are you?
Is She now a Commander wasn't She a Deputy ?
An older Sgt once told me about "Edge Missions" back in the 80s and early 90s.
What a wild era that must have been.

You are 100% correct. Remember bartender Bea?
The concept of 'quotas' as applied to employee work output is valid in most professions.
Whether private business or government, output of employees is evaluted by this, as an element of employee work performance.
Yet, in a few professions, this usage of 'quotas' is invalid to the purpose and function thereof.
Law enforcement is one of such professions, as is the profession of extinguishing fires, aka our Chicago Fire Department.
As is also our Emergency Medical Technicians.
As, also, in private business, morticians.
With our coroners being also not valid to have 'quotas' used as an evaluator of said profession's employees work performance.
There are many more professions within which an imposed 'quota' does not have any valid function.
The use of 'quotas' within these professions results, inevitably, in a 'by hook or by crook' efforts infecting the employee workforce.
The intent by those imposing this 'quota' scheme is to induce dishonest behaviors.
Naughty, naughty, naughty.....
How about Anthony Escamerit's edict to make 10 traffic stops every night on North Av. This asshole truly believed he was going to make an impact on North Av. He made an impact alright. DEMOTED!
OT from the Fibune:
As Chicago police Officer Craig Lancaster awaits trial on a felony aggravated battery charge for striking an eighth grade student, newly released documents show that his girlfriend — a Chicago Public Schools teacher — gave a CPS official the wrong last name for Lancaster and identified him as a computer company employee instead of a cop.
Also known affectionally to the 24th District as Officer Club Cock in some circles...
“Maybe the VSWO grievance will finally put an end to one part of it.“
I sure hope so. I was just crunching numbers in my head. I know people that have been suspended 3, 6 and even 12 months. 9 out of 10 of them vehemently deny doing something so egregious to warrant what equates to several thousands of dollars penalty. As many have stated before, our discipline is supposed to be progressive. This is anything but… Hell, this is completely fabricated and as it’s completely made up and run by the clowns at Special Employment. You know some connected people were taken care of in regards to suspensions, while others were absolutely hammered without cause. How many people made phone calls to friends of friends of prior coworkers, partners, etc.? it’s pretty clear cut that they implemented these “Guidelines” improperly and have harmed countless people by administering discipline they had no right to. Allyson, Jill and that whole crew need to be hammered for this when all the dust settles.
In the words of the highly educated COmmander Secario. You have something I want, and I have something you want. The words of a Mutt who never did any real police work. He humped his Daddy in-laws leg for as much as he could get.
Just heard that Jill Stevens put in her par form to retire and avoid being fired.
Commander Vanna is on the Prowl in 024 what a disaster
This guy is bad news!! Only been here 1 week and commander Brennan is already missed. This guy is Toxic
We need more stand up guys like Commander Vanna. Where is he now?
How about Street Deputy Melean retiring out of nowhere.

I’d love to see it and won’t hold my breath quite yet. But if true, you can bet she’ll wind up as Chief of Police in some suburb after buffaloing their city council members with an exaggerated “stellar” work history with CPD. Just like the Elf did in glencoe.

And, don't join the ass kissing society and do not buy tickets for their promotion or retirement parties. The hell with them.

Jill Stevens NEVER worked the street and always had a cushy job and always promoted, thanks to her daddy ~ she's an idiot like her old man
Just do something, or layoffs will come.
Check out the two five district's young watch ot grievance. Rules for some except for the notorious activity hogs and not the piglets.
Quotas are still being used and held over people's heads. Some people never learn. Just don't be the last one holding the bag
Its not a quota, its a minimum performance standard.........

Omg had me laughing, that's the CPD way, promote the unpromotable friends and family and like an STD even after retirement it's like a bad STD...gift that keeps on giving. 10 more years, can't wait.
SSC did you mention office dollies working vri when never even leaving the office for activity?. Well they had access/clearance to input into performance recognition. Get rid of that data base anyway...it's not Wallstreet.
GLEN, I love that u named names!! This is the only place you can tell the damn truth. Thank you!!

Yea right…I also heard she’s a front runner for a chief spot. You don’t get fired for that shit. Demoted? Maybe. But not fired.
Did Billy Barty aka Riccio come up with that on his own or did someone do all of his thinking for him?
You obviously were not on the job long enough to know that a grievance was filed during VRI about quotas to work it. The arbitrator ruled in the City’s favor. The activity is to work an overtime initiative, was voluntary and was legal. I agree with everyone but VRI snd SDI are totally different.
Blah blah blah, most of you commenting on this blog work for the city, know how the city operates, how it’s going to continue to operate and how it will never change. It’s the city of chicago, every dept from the police to streets and sanitation is always been and always will be who you know not what you know. Instead of sitting here blaming and shaming you should figure out how to do the same. If your to lazy to figure out how to make the city work for you instead of you work for the city, that’s on you! Get into the game and start playing by their rules do as they do. This is all a chess game, move your pieces strategically, set your self up for the checkmate! Play the game
You mean I have to actually work to make six figures? Leave Jill and her Family alone, they are good people.
work so what does the department do? Promote her over and over again.

Say what you want about Jill, but Matt has been the police his entire career. Worked midnights in 010 until promotion by score to 014, where he worked midnights many years until he made it to the D unit. He was never taken care of like his sister was.
Besides anyone with that kind of whack would use it all day long, deny it and you’re just kidding yourself ..
Steven’s father was a decent guy. Really was, treated people well. I can’t speak about his kids but he was very decent.
Some of the comments on here are just untrue or greatly exaggerated. You can tell by the ignorance of the comments who is, has and always should be pushing a beat car until they hopefully retire. I don't wish ill will on anyone who wears blue.
Jill Stevens has definitely worked the streets. I have 25+ years on the job and never worked inside. She rode with me more than once in a beat car on 1st watch a long time ago. She used to try very hard when she was a PO. She wasn't afraid to do her job when she first started. She probably hasn't worked as real police officer in over 15 years but she has definitely pushed a beat car.
Reading is one skill and reading comprehension is another. The average moron posting on so called quotas is incorrect. Illinois Police Departments can't have a quota to keep your job. That law has specific language about arrests and moving violation tickets. The law everyone is talking about has obviously never read it. That Law is only for employment, not special employment, OT initiatives, and etc, etc. One poster already said it but think about VRI. That had a minimum activity requirement. That was deemed legal after some lazy assess filed a grievance about it. No one is entitled to OT, Special Employment, Specialized Units, and everything else CPD offers. The ISP used to have a quota about stops, not tickets. The language was changed to interactions and is perfectly legal. CPD can change the language (they should) about all the OT initiatives that would include a minimum amount of activity to qualify. That would be perfectly legal as it doesn't pertain to keep your job. The grievance being filed is about arbitrary suspensions. That can certainly be sued about. The lazy do nothings hoping to cash in about not getting OT because they didn't meet numbers can forget it. They don't have a leg to stand on and I could care less about.
I care a thousand times more about all the working police officers/political prisoners at call back or in a no pay status. Those brave hard working men and women are victims of the Communist Office of Police Assassinations. They are the only real victims of the Shity of Chicago. Quit giving a voice to DO NOTHINGS!!!!
Thank you and good night!

Jilldo has 21 years on, so let’s do that math using your timeline.
Minus academy time, PPO time and not working as a “real police officer in over 15 years” puts her at working a beat car at MAYBE 5 years. Which she didnt because she had spots in units or inside pretty much right off probation. She has never been or never will be “the police”. She was groomed from before she came on the job to be a house mouse supervisor, hidden in various spots where she wouldnt draw much attention to herself. But people like her are too smart for their own good. She’s on the radar now bigtime. Just like 99% of the exempt rank supervisors on this job - USELESS AND PUT INTO SPOTS AFTER UNEARNED PROMOTIONS BECAUSE OF CLOUT AND NEPOTISM. Fuck Jill Stevens. I hope this gets her demoted minimum, launched max.

*****************************************
Exactly! I believe this was also how the city was able to exclude detectives from working VRI. I am surprised SCC did not remember this.
What's the status of the Dougherty lawsuit? The city is already on the hook for quite a bit of money and hours owed.
******************************
The status is that the courts ruled against the city, but they have refused to pay. This amounts to almost 900k a MONTH in interest added to the payout amount. As of the article that was written in February stated, we were owed 165M back then.

To Mr/Mrs 12/19/2023 06:01:00 AM,
Save us the “Jill Stevens worked the streets” nonsense.
She “worked” the mean streets of 024 for roughly 3 years before going to Asset Forfeiture.
You ever try going to AFU with 3 years on? lol
Don’t worry though, we believe you.
It’s all legit and she was a real workhorse that earned her bones. Lololol
I don’t believe in quotas but they certainly kept the dog detectives and day dolly’s away from the OT.

Speaking of quotas, when is Michael J. Barz the lieutenant/captain/commander/deputy-chief/captain/ Commander AGAIN (018)going to be held accountable for getting sued over illegal quota actions against minorities, bad mouthing a bunch of black bosses, threatening a female and Hispanic officer with arrests while he was an IAD sergeant ,and covering up a investigation into the NOBLE lieutenants exam cheating scandal????
Or is he in the running for first deputy too???
I don’t give a fuck what she did 15 years ago. Jill is fucking up the deployment enough said!
