The Road to 600

The crime wave continues to swamp the nicer zip codes:

  • A suspect is on the run after shots were fired at a hotel in downtown, Chicago police said.

    The shooting happened at about 5:11 a.m. at the 500-block of N. State Street in the Near North neighborhood.

    ABC7's cameras were at the scene. Video shows police focusing the investigation at The Royal Sonesta hotel.

We have a difficult time picturing these addresses because we never worked in the higher class parts of town. We were doomed to the rougher neighborhoods, and then found out it was enjoyable in a dark sort of way. Our seniority never looked as good as it did in the places no one else wanted to be assigned.

These downtown and uptown addresses where streets have names instead of numbers are appearing constantly in crime reports nowadays. 

So the big question - will Chicago hit 600 murders this year? With a little over six weeks to go, the total sits at 543....and with Chicago is averaging over a killing a day, it would seem to be well within reach....weather permitting.

I’m thinking we can hit the fast forward button over Thanksgiving weekend and maybe get to 570+ by that Monday. We just need to find the bodies before that Monday. Maybe we hit 602-605. It’s a damn shame but this is the way conehead wants us to move based on his 💩 policies.

The experts who were good at "dummying down the numbers" have all retired.

If any of these clown bosses try to lie about homicides "that didn't happen", hopefully they will be found out and FIRED.

Are they still giving out Covid money to stay in hotels? Every hotel (nice ones) I've been to in the city and burbs have been nothing but west side crap.

Can you imagine if all the CHA high rise apartments were still up! Who would believe the homicides are all over the city now! There is no more flooding certain Districts with the whole city being under siege! No strategy and no clue on how to turn things around! Puppet exempt staff (Gold Star failures).

River North. Tell me, where is the low income housing over there, because that area turned to shit awhile ago. I walked through there not long ago, hood rats everywhere.

With any luck the ghetto will be over 600+ fewer. No loss at all, in fact just 600 fewer potential problems. Keep up the steady aim one shot one kill is the goal.

CPS taught these people to use violence to address the inequalities of life, they never thought that they would use it in everyday situations or that the inequalities are brought upon themselves by themselves.

How about the guy that dumped his dead girlfriend in Busse Woods this week after they had an argument and she “fell and hitting her head, died”
He was released on electronic monitoring because he was only charged with concealing a homicide. It’s not a charge he can be held in custody.
I see a trip to Mexico for the holidays for him

In 2022 in Illinois, there were 56,457 babies killed in abortion. That's about 155 killed every single day.

Are you frickin’ kidding me? The entire command staff at BIA was caught lying to the public at the city council and public safety meeting and nothing happened to Chief Talley or D/C Walker. No one is getting fired for lying unless you’re a PO.

BARZ principally. He is a moron of epic proportions other than getting blue cards. What a fuckin’ mush. He constantly fucks with Tact and regular beat officers for bullshit when he should be focusing and strategizing on true crime reduction measures. No concept of being a decent boss. He’s never at work and when he is all he does is focus on insignificant bullshit, stirs the pot and then disappears again. Always lies and promises shit and never delivers because he can’t. He’s bullshitted his way throughout his career at the Area as a Detective, in IAD and when Brown was Superintendent. I have some doozie stories from when he was a Dic. Be mindful now Mike you don’t want to resurrect some old skeletons. Stop messing with people and keep a low profile until you retire in May.

It’s been shit for years but a little birdie told me that the Greater River North Business Association, civic leaders, downtown merchants, residents and alderman are setting up a meeting with the Mayor’s office to have the “seldom at work or an any major scene” Commander moved out.
Uptick in recent violent crimes at major retailers, hotels, and other historic attractions such as Navy Pier, Hancock and the Rush Street bars and clubs are out of control. The only money being spent are from some tourists. Smash and grabs at the same merchants over and over and over that constantly make the news is costing them collectively millions annually to the point insurance companies no longer want to insure. Not to mention city residents now order on line or go to suburban stores for their shopping - hence no profit, nor county or city taxes collected. Apparently Barz’s big mouth may have gotten him in trouble once again by saying to someone important, “wtf do they want me to do about it, they should hire more private security” which got back to the wrong powerful Jewish folks. Stay tuned!

And yet the Chicago/Cook County idiots still vote for democrats. I wonder how many of those voters can tie their own shoes.

So sad that the number is not pushing 1,000 like in the 90's. Medicine has come a long way and hospitals are pretty good at bullet extractions now without the patient bleeding out.

Moron is an understatement and everywhere he’s been he fucks with people. He fucked over people in 010, poor Cmdr. Tony Escamilla in 025 and Tony never knew it. Barz thought he was going to get Commander of 025. There are so many traceable skeletons that he’s left behind while working in IAD it ain’t funny. I’m hearing rumors that at least a couple of them are being looked at.

Thank Mount Sinai, UoChicago, and Northwestern Hospitals for their ER gunshot medical response units. These ER departments are reason why Chicago isn't matching its penultimate years of gunshot murders. Better medicine, not better-behaved people.
