Interesting to say the least.
UPDATE: yes, it's 2018. First thing we saw. But it shows where the basis for the rumor got started....six years later.

John, you’re a cuck.
I’d like to buy Pawel a beer
From 2018?
Why does attorney John Vrdolyak misspell the word "principal" throughout the pleading? This is a rather commonplace term of art in the legal profession which you'd think somebody at the firm should have caught.
Not a big deal. $30K not much and insurance company will pay out if they lose and will probably settle. Cheaper to pay out than actually fight in court. Part of the bar business.
Yeah, Johnny Boy is a lifelong dirtbag who’s mired in controversy, coated in ignorance and dipped in narcissism.
It’s not a shock that he picked a fight with a kid less than half his weight and a third his age. But the kicker is he sues the kids family business claiming he was head butted by junior.
I believe he commented that he was breaking up a fight, yet the filing makes no such mention. Must’ve been a helluva NY Eve party, huh John? Don’t forget to keep those lies straight.
Zero F**ks
Lost income....WTF...hope they throw the case out , and we should throw out ...
Whinning , Crying Johnnnie....
Real men either kick ass or get kicked, they don't file lawsuits cause they were ....Ready...."Bitch Slapped"...like the punk you are.
Open the books John.
Can We Start A Go Fund Me Page For This Kid? Every One Knows
How Johnny Acts When He’s Sober Or Drunk, A Loud Mouth A@@ Hole
Well, well, well. Loss of income? Wasnt he on medical at that time? So he would not have been able to wrk ot and would have been paid his regular salary. Once a grifter, always a grifter. Wake up people.
2018 ? ?????
Hmmm..keep voting in this should have been fired more than once goof....CPD rank and file still a ship of fools ( 86-3 and loving retirement old revolver guy)
President John Catanzara, I support you and am thankful for all you've done and continue to do for our members! Thank you and f off to the haters ;)
JCAT lost and is butt hurt. Get over it.
Got jaw jacked and now butt hurt.Cheaper and safer to drink at home and less assholes to deal with
Another Ghetto lottery
Bet Five hundred....
He was Bitch ...SLAPPED !
.
Retired in Texas……
Copa strikes again!!!…..CWB article reads copa recommended termination of an officer who depicted Lightfoot as a clown on his or her Facebook page…..
Seems that our hero officer on their private Facebook page used a standard picture of Lightfoot and put her in a clown face….. supposedly the officers Facebook page gave no indication that they are connected in anyway to CPD…
Copa states the picture is offensive to marginalized persons of color. WTF…..
Can’t a zara, this is what you need to be filing a lawsuit on backing this officers freedom of speech, you know, First Amendment rights and such……
Back each other up out there y’all !!!
Hoping for a full recovery. But.... John, how are you disfigured? I know of a Officer who was shot in the head and he is medically declared disfigured.
Nothing like leadership by example!
wow,,,,,, I wish I could have been paid $30,000 every time I got in a fight
When will the other fop backers wake the fuck up and dump these clowns and go with MAP or Teamsters? FOP is a failure at doing anything, just a paper tiger.
Any information on the fundraiser for Stashu would be greatly appreciated.
Powerless over alcohol. Even when the alcohol is in another person's bloodstream
Bully. Loud mouth. Sore loser. Mouth wrote a check his bloated body couldn’t cash. And like a typical punk, he goes this route. Unhinged narcissist running your union, you folks need to explore a better option for your next prez election.
The most disgusting part of the lawsuit is that he hired Vrdolyak, instead of an honest lawyer!
Vrdolyak. A blast from the past.
That’s a Banquet Hall..Not a Bar
The detective EJ (big mouth) who the fop assigned to forensics should be very thankful that fop gave her that spot. For someone making detectives pay and not doing anything even close to what her job title is should be very happy. She is a complete joke.
I Effin love SCC
To anyone who thinks this is it. Please do a cook county docket search for Kittycat and you will see foreclosure, repossession, possibly bankruptcy, eviction and many credit cards defaulted on. Hell he kept the tuition money the city gave him and didn’t pay Lewis university like he was supposed to. Rumor has it his 100K FOP provided ( and pays for gas, tolls, insurance, maintenance,) isn’t enough for him he has to roll up occasionally in his 150K car he just purchased. He obviously has his name tied to the FOP credit card and bank account to prove credit worthiness, and his 300K income excited creditors into a new car, new house, etc. I am not worried, those who continually live above their means crash and burn. Shouldn’t we reduce their salaries and make a credit check part of the requirement for board members so this type of bust out crap cannot control our funds? He got mad his 5600 dinner was exposed but how many members can actually say they ever sat at a table and spent 5600 on dinner. (Answer: just the 15 board members and his secretary who dined on our dime at Lawry’s in Vegas). Did they at least pitch in their 100 per diem that day to recoup some of the cost? NO I am sure they didn’t. Wonder if king kitty was in a penthouse with his girl.
Disfigurement? It might be a big improvement to that schnozzola.
That 2018 is about right for this to rear up. Civil cases take about seven years to be heard
He may come after you SCC for putting his business out there.
His clout ticket...
The FOP “assigned” her to forensics? Sorry, it doesnt work that way, simpleton. It’s probably a good thing that you’re retired and a full time Cantanzara Nut Hugger, DeSanti. Otherwise you’d continue to be a liability to the department walking thru life so uninformed and ignorant. Which is why you make the perfect FOP patsy. I’m sure John regularly thanks you for your unwavering loyalty, it’s called positive reinforcement to keep you mental midget sycophants in line. Say, did all you guys pick a date yet to go get inked up? That tat design is killer… 🤗 🐈 🥜
Not sure how you can put “blackface” on a black person, but that’s the illogical and biased thought process of COPA. Snelling defended the meme it as NOT being akin to “black face.” The problem is the OFFICER got recommended for 10 days instead of firing. This is what COPA does as a strategy to boost their numbers. They make over the top ridiculous recommendations than the officer accepts a lower one just to be done with it and COPA gets to put a notch on their belt. It’s persecution basically for being the police. There’s no other way to spin it.
Ok Cos. are you butt hurt because your phone call to get someone dumped didn’t work? Or is this dave the ball licker who was told what to type. What a bunch of egos. No one respects you. Where is the contract assholes? PS dave the numbers are up in the hundreds if not thousands. Will you still have your head up Kitty’s ass when the FBI comes a knocking or will you run like the coward you are?
Cantanzara was ugly to begin with
Lower the salaries. Lower the expense accounts. Credit check to run for office. He’s got control of millions and is spending most of it. Open the books.
There seriously needs to be a limit on what kind of money will be allocated for a car. I don’t need a union president in a flashy shit magnet. We all have jobs that require us getting to and from work. The only time a take home vehicle or paid for vehicle is remotely justified is when your job requires you to do work tasks with the vehicle or be on call at all hours. Getting to what is in fact your job doesn’t entitle you to a car. If we really wanted to be old school- let him buy his own damn car and we reimburse mileage. This isn’t deserved by anyone. It’s flatly just an abuse of member dues.
Well hello. Don't know why I got dragged into this, but ok, I'll play. The FOP DID NOT get me assigned to my unit, but John did however try to get me dumped from it. The unit needed a certified grant writer, which I am, to write grants for equipment. As for what I'm doing when not writing grants, is part of my job scope. I am very thankful that I get to do something as rewarding as providing the means for our ET's and Officers to be able to perform their essential tasks which helps the Detectives investigate shootings and other violent crimes, leading to more charges. I also feel blessed that I get to work with some of the hardest working and most dedicated members in this department.
I can only assume that this is one of the board members that we pay Captians pay to perform a part time job, which consists of posting their dues funded lunches and dinners on socal media. So to be clear. You (the FOP) did not get me my education and certification in grant writing, you did not write the grants which secured funding or our unit, nor do you perform the daily tasks of providing pertinent information to to the men and women in the field that work their asses off so they can fund your $6000 steak dinners, $30K parties, your 9% pension payments, your numerous golf outings and trips and your Cadillac insurance plans.
If standing up for the hardworking members that are paying $1000 a year to support numerous bills and activites that only support you guys, then yes, I have the biggest mouth here. I have stood up for the members for years, without being paid Commander and Captains pay to do so, and I will continue to do so for as long as I'm on this job. As for you guys, just remember, pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.
Dipshit, there are two spellings of that word. Your version means the guy in charge of a school. The other spelling used in the document is correct.
I’ve read some of the dockets/filings you mention. While a lot of people have the occasional financial hiccup (divorce, bankruptcy during housing crash etc) due to often unforeseen circumstances beyond their control, it definitely raises a huge red flag when there’s a pattern to financial anomalies and inconsistencies.
John has had SEVERAL incidents involving defaults, foreclosures, liens etcetera. Hell, he even has a trial involving fiscal irregularities (public information) coming up at the Daley Center on 05 Mar 25 @ 9am. Room #CV 1306, for those of you interested in attending 😉. Seems Big Bad John wasn’t happy when an arbitrator ruled against him and now he’s demanding trial.
Key point to take away from all this? John Cantanzara is to FOP 7 what Brandon Johnson and Tiffany Henyard are to their respective Mayors Office. THEY ARE FINANCIALLY IRRESPONSIBLE AND SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ANYWHERE THE PURSE STRINGS OF THE ENTITIES THEY’RE CHARGED WITH RUNNING.
There’s a reason why Cantanzara and the Board at Lodge 7 have gone above and beyond to keep the membership from seeing “the books”. Anyone who says otherwise is clearly involved with the malfeasance or would rather turn a blind eye and chalk it up to “business as usual”. It’ll be nice to see all the rats flipping on each other when it all comes crumbling down.
So. 7 years ago J Cat got head butted and had his nose broke. Thats a news flash for haters. All the cowards that have never given or taken a punch like democrats spin the story. He came to work even with all the black and blue bruising. Got to hand it to him and Told it like it was. Stopping the kid from attacking another patron of New years eve party in the bathroom of establishment. Was holding the kid from behind, Kid threw his head back and hit Cat in the nose. The cry babies on here would have hit the medical for weeks and came back to work telling a war story of fighting 5-6 guys and getting kicked in the face by steel toed boots as they were winning. Lol
We have Detectives as commander secretary’s, time keepers, working in Area Technical center… even one in the bomb squad which is useless.. nothing new.. it happens in E.T. sgt, Lt classes. Look away nothing to see here..
Five buck an hour CPS graduate administrative assistant.
an honest lawyer ?? that's like finding an honest politician ,,,,,
If Cantazara sees $5000 grand from the lawsuit, he’ll be lucky. Vrdolyak Law will take the rest in fees, frivolous reports, and med-pay liens.
Snelling said the termination was excessive and recommended a 10 day suspension which COPA finally agreed to.
$30,000 for a broken nose at the absolute worst.
Take your licks like a man and move on.
Something smells fishy.
Even if a kid sucker punched you!
I believe other may0r$ and/or ranking officials were also targeted. The officer has ment@l i$$uses, real or fake? Who knows
This department would't lift a finger to help John or any other unconnected copper. Someone sounds jealous. Did this detective take your spot? Poor baby.
This right here is how Field Reps are made... Can you sing?
You guys should be thankful that we allow you to represent us. This is what our dues pay you guys to do? So we pay you guys $180K a year to bash the members. When is the next election?
Thats hilarious cuz jrat was already on the medical at that time.
Wow, everyone else’s day off was canceled. And had to work New Year’s Eve.
Hmm.......that's no way to ring in a new year. I suggest JCat stays in watches Guy Lombardo reruns this NYE.
No he's right. Principal is the correct spelling for this usage.
So if the tough guy "came to work" would that then make this portion of the suit a frivolous claim, in that he lost no wages? We already know the disfigurement portiin is bogus, because that MF always looked like he got wrapped in the face with a bag of nickels!
List please.

I’ve heard these rumors for some time but now it seems it where there’s smoke there’s fire. aren’t we supposed to have unrestricted access to the finance records as dues paying members? Old timers I talk to say they used to just drop in ask for a ledger book to check some of their spending and that would be it. No one hid stuff and they even made him copies of records he wanted (this was before cell phone cameras). This whole thing smells rotten. I’ll be talking with a family member tomorrow who is an attorney for the IRS and see what she says about the legality of this and what kind of recourse we members have. It’s time for a financial audit. These guys are totally on bullshit
This dick Catanzara spread vulgar lies about the only viable candidate for Retirees/Widows pension board seat. And HE is the one trying to steal that seat for more power and control of monies. Fuck you John. Fuck you twice.
Too busy at the bar chasing bartenders instead of taking care of our business.
Maybe all of the young dumb officers who followed, and voted for this goof will open their eyes. I doubt they will.
Some of you haters need to go get your T levels checked. Keep up the good work. Im sure the whiners all vote for the D.
Dear President, Can you please provide for us how many times you were sued for not paying your bills? Living large on the FOP money right now. How’s the 150K new car? How are you not responding to all of this? You send your ball lickers to attack RO yet you have a long list of financial issues you won’t address. Open the books John. Show the members the 1.2 million dollars in salaries and other benefits we are paying your people. Two call outs a month and you need all those field reps? Do singing engagements count as a call out? How about the additional 500K for expenses that you won’t provide the documentation or require your board to file the form you report to the IRS you have filed. You told the people who tried to see the financials that you would be the one going to prison for lying on the IRS form but it’s the secretaries responsibility to collect those forms that are completed. You told them weren’t being done. Perhaps the new widower can marry his fiance before prison so they can get conjugal visits. Lovely couple. Been together long?
Only one viable candidate? There were two running, and I voted for the other one.
⬆️ THIS!! Perfect. And needs to be looked into.
I love how you don’t allow scandalous truth posted about J cat. You have failed to publish 2 of my posts.
Vrdolyak is scraping the bottom of the barrel, isn't he?
So there is only one viable candidate and you voted for the other one who is another Jcat criminal? Fudge to U 2.
To the female who keeps bragging that she is a certified grant writer: so am I. Two days at a grant writing class and boom I am certified. And you you can buy a certification on line. Come down from your mountain and go to R&D if you are so qualified.
