If so, dear Commander-PLEASE RESIGN FOT THE GOOD OF THE DEPARTMENT!
NOW!!°
Maybe he has the miseries.
This is absolutely true. He was out of the country on vacation and unable to make it back in time. But don’t worry, he’s one of the best. I’ve heard the Sup say that multiple times
Oh my God! Freaking unbelievable if true! Now work hard!
Yes, he failed to attend! Apparently “missed” his flight. The commander went to 3rd watch roll call, both early and late. He didn't mention the funeral or why he didn't show. Not even an apology. He instead told them what they need to be doing and what needs fixing with officers uniforms
It’s true, he wasn’t at the wake either.
This is the same commander that wanted to make an all female tact team…
I didn't see the slug...I was there for the entire time.
Yes, supposedly he was out of town and his flight was cancelled, his captain had to handle everything.
Commander Tate is a good Boss.
He would never deliberately not attend the funeral of an Officer killed in the line of duty. Get you some real business and stop being messy!!!!
i thought tate was no longer the commander of 006
He did. Merit Mike Tate. He was snelling s admin sgt and snelling made him a merit Lt. He went to a unit and was a Commander within months. He’s Larry’s best friend.
Would anyone be shocked if true?
Who is Commander of 006?
Truth
Snelling should have dumped him that day.
If Tate missed it, he’s an asshole. If he’s still Commander, both of them are assholes. There’s not too many reasons why you should miss one of YOUR OFFICERS funerals.
Why so serious?
Wouldn't surprise me, but if its true, That is an all time LOW for this Dept! Snelling should demote Tate immediately! Goes to show you how the bosses really think of us.
No surprises if true.
Claimed he got stuck in LA, yet he had knowledge of the funeral prior.
Officers don’t even show up to each others funerals anymore. Why should the brass? It’s a disgrace what the departments become
So the question remains for those of you in 006-
Are you still going to produce for a boss of this kind?
said the pin cushion from her desk
hahahaha only in Shitcago!
Remember folks this is a job, nobody truly cares about you other than those AT HOME and folks you enjoy working with on the reg. Once we die, dept doesn't care EVEN MORE and the show must go on. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND OTHERS. Don't do more than you have to, it's NOT worth it.
Let’s see… P.O. Martinez was shot and killed on 04Nov24… wake and funeral PLANNED 2 weeks after for 17 & 18Nov24.. 2 WEEKS LATER! Yup, any plans barring your own personal family emergency can and should be changed to accommodate and attend.. there is no excuse!
The funeral was 2 weeks after the officer was murdered, I don’t care what your “plans” were you change them with that much notice.
He was out of the country on vacation.
Him and the other bossholes can go fuck off. We are done with this shit. Answer your calls and the rest can be done by tac or management humps.
100%, but he didn't miss it because he never planned on going.
The bosses and the city don't think of blue shirts at all, wise up.
I know this is a tragedy for all of us but we need to give him the benefit of the doubt.
He claims he's got the miseries, but he havin' lots of fun, oh baby!
If one of his officers was killed, WHY WAS HE NOT
IN CHICAGO HELPING THE TROOPS AND THE FAMILY?
Your job is to be there!
If you are in Bora Bora, as soon as you hear, you come back.
Let the trash take itself out! The Family of Officer Martinez is what matters. May G-d console his dear family and true friends.
He was in L.A. or out of the country? Big difference. It’s quick and easy to fly domestically, not so much transatlantic flights.
Now get back on the street and make him look good for the folks downtown
I heard commander slug was out in LA shaking his booty.
F U to everyone making excuses for that sorry piece of shit tate. Officer was killed Nov 4, larritoriius sent an email to everyone on Nov 8 announcing the dates for the wake and funeral which were Nov 17 and 18. tate had plenty of time to arrange flights to attend and then go back to his vacation. Or was that motherfucker just cheap and didn’t want to buy extra tickets.
He can blame the two bison ticket agents from Spirit airlines that went viral...
Demote him now.
Get your mouth off the Commanders prick, and keep it shut.
How many days between HIS Officers death and the wake/funeral? So it wasn’t a surprise. A leader would cancel his plans and attend HIS Officers funeral.
Period, full stop.
Just because he gave you an inside spot doesn’t mean he’s a “good boss” at all. And if you think his actions are acceptable, you need to re-evaluate your priorities as well.
It’s sad that anyone on this job would think that this is acceptable.
i iknew tate when he was a patrolman just a dog -ss racist hater and very dumb
Not the police so I don't know that my opinion carries much weight here but,
If I'm a commander and I get word that one of my people has gone down in the line of duty, my vacation is over. I don't care if I'm in a different state, a different country, or on a different fucking planet...IT DOES NOT MATTER.
I will find a way to get back.
The same goof who in the constitutional policing scenario pulled the trigger on us in the mental episode he was so nervous and he is a leader "come on man!"
Pretty shitty considering that the EOW incident took place on 04 Nov and the funeral was 18 NoV.
Get off his dick! The whole dist hates him except for his admin sgt, sec and the 2 year wonder who's in his office because he knows her father.
Fuck you Tate you piece of shit
Are you serious? This guy is a piece of garbage and the worst boss I've ever seen. He is by no way a good leader! You must be one of his admin people!
Michael Tate. Merit Lt in July 2022. Nominated by LARRY SNELLING !
Retired and so sick and tired bout hearing these buffoons it was bad in my day but now out of control. This group of sissy’s wearing a gold star is a disgrace. I don’t care where you were in the world,the wake funeral was a week after the incident. You are stealing bout 160,000 a year you can easily get an airline ticket home. This entire command staff is the same sissy’s, cowards, imbeciles
Useless, and stupid. They want you to follow them, do nothing that broke the camels back.
, kiss asses, useless, pieces of shit, but follow me.
Exactly
Get you some real business. Ugh. Hate to read your reports , or hear you speak on the radio.
I’m going to say that that motherfucker is that cheap.
I'm sure everyone in 006 will be buying the holiday party tickets
What a doosh bag. He can go kick rocks, but based on the name, nothing will happen to him. Matter of fact the General of Gym instructors will only promote him sooner than later.
The sad thing is, you’re not the Police, but you’re better than probably 75% of our Command Staff.
(Are you looking for a job?)
Tate is the same p.o.s. that cannot even stop minor drug activity in the district and has plenty of eye candy females in the CAPS office that are probably polishing his head for those cushy jobs.
This numb nuts would rather have Church service on the streets than do actual police work.
Why is anyone surprised by this? Have common sense. Tate is double merit. Merit is the main recipe of why this department has low morale and certain watches are 💩. You have so called leaders who should not even be the police, but then are promoted time after time. END MERIT
What is FOT ?
Excuses Excuses
5 yr cocksucker
Nothing will change until Chicagoans wake up and dump every Democrat running (ruining) this city and that isn't going to happen. The current regime running the city and county demands that only Black Democrats matter, anyone else is disposable. Sadly, I think it is too late, Chicago has already reached Detroit status, they just haven't claimed bankruptcy yet. If you can, get out now. Your pensions will be worth next to nothing.
Sure they will that’s what’s wrong.
Being out of town and in the USA is one thing, being out of the country and maybe on a tour is something different. I don't know the details on this one, but I have taken planned tours a number of times and you cannot cancel without losing a lot of money.
Correct. Still decided to go on vacation and then blamed the weather for not being able to come home. How about this… you took the job as commander. YOU took on the responsibility to be the leader of 300+ people. YOU agreed when taking on that command to make sacrifices in order to lead your men and women. One of your officers is murdered, the smart boss would talk to the supe and change the trip around till after the funeral. Then ask the supe to change your time off in order to be present for the 006 officers and help with the arrangements, the family and your own officers.. then be at the funeral. THEN you take your trip. We know not all trips are refundable and for cancelling you may incur a penalty… this would be one of those times when you incur the penalty OR you send your wife and tell her to invite her sister or best friend etc to take your place… I’m sure given the circumstances your wife would be 100 percent understanding and supportive as I know my wife would be… instead you chose to still chose to go.. and if you are on your trip, and you know a storm is coming and you may not be able to fly out the day you want too then maybe prepare, call the airline while on vacation and say you need to leave a day early to get out before the storm.. ignorant morons like you is why so many people hate some gold stars. Terrible decision. You could have made arrangements.. but u didn’t.
Slightly OT here: I was told by a couple of Hispanic officers that Novales screwed up the Spanish translation during the wake, that he left out significant portions of both Snelling's and Erique's brother's speech. They were also angry that he looked at his watch when he first stepped up to the podium. They felt all of this was disrespectful to the family.
I agree with merits...take a look at the 19th district Lt's!! Esp one that came from Carters office
He could have rented a car and driven back..........I've done that drive straight through several times.......
Are you surprised? I’m not. Novalez doesn't take his position seriously. Remember he’s the boss that the department to communicate with our beloved Officer Huesca’s family. He lied and stated that the family wanted the mayor to attend the services, although they did not. Just like the other merit hacks, he feels entitled.
While interpreting, he communicates what he wants to communicate and ignores the family’s wishes. Remember he also the merit hack boss that was hiding inside of an SDSC Room during the Pride Parade Malay. He was assessing the situation from the back instead of on the frontline. The should get him on cowardice.
Commander Tate didn’t attend one of his officer’s funeral and Chief Novalez screwed up a significant amount of times while interrupting. This clown show never ends.
Point proven. He’s a boss, not a leader. Bet this is one of his useless CAPS officers who posted this
Lil Mike (Tate) a Big Time Hater. Many white & hispanic officers learned and were affected by that when this midget POS merit hack was at BIA.
Young officers are out making traffic stops and getting hurt trying to get answers for the bosses’ and those useless weekly meetings.
Merit Hack Exempt clowns are outdoing each other again.
Captain Deane has been running the district for some time now. Everyone knows that. Commander Tate is always MIA or attending a “training”.
Tate is a racist piece of garbage. First off, he decided to show up to the hospital dressed like a street bum while every other gold star was in uniform. While at the hospital, he took it as an opportunity to have his hand picked caps people get some camera time by attempting to run the show. Those losers haven’t spent a second of their lives battling in the trenches. He didn’t want to give officers a few days to grieve, the captain made it happen. Tate then said everything is back to normal the Friday after the shooting. Held an inspection and walked into roll call throwing a temper tantrum at surprise surprise Hispanic and white officers. Then he decides he won’t show up to the wake and funeral. This guy has treated Hispanic and white officers like trash since the day he stepped foot in 006 as commander. Doesn’t even acknowledge them, just bricks and black lists them. Didn’t hear about him dumping his “best friend” the tact LT back to the watch? Tate’s admin sgt’s husband on narcotics asked her to ask Tate to send a tact team to the redline to arrest multiple people with absolutely NO PROBABLE CAUSE. Tact LT said no, not jamming my guys up. What does Tate do? Dumps him back to the watch. Tate is a coward. Only cares about his people and makes it well known.
Was I surprised? I do not speak Spanish, so yeah, I was surprised to hear this. I did not think anyone could be that insensitive to a grieving family, but apparently, he was. Did he not think that there are thousands of Hispanic officers and citizens who would KNOW he did this? Is Angel that ignorant or that arrogant? Sadly, he seems to no longer be the person I knew from our younger days.
