Day 110....and Counting
So most states in the US (and quite a few foreign countries) count tens of millions of votes in a single day.
Illinois, New York and California, being run by morons, take days, even weeks as they fraudulently manufacture votes to steal elections.
What is CPD's excuse?
- ....it’s been 110 days since the Evidence Technician exam was administered. October 4th 2024. The reason it’s odd is because it was an 80 question multiple choice scantron test. I remember back in grade school they would give you results from a scantron immediately or maybe after lunch. Yet a large organization can’t get it done in a reasonable amount of time. This is yet another area in which the department needs massive improvement, test result timeframe.
Larritorious - who never passed a single promotional exam high enough to make it legit - has his people tweaking the exam....like if they remove Question #14, does the "underrepresented" demographic rise or fall? If it falls, better not touch Question #14 and move on to Question #23 and see what happens. But of course, since all the test graders are similar in ability to the multiple "merit" supernintendo, this could take a year or more.
Plus, Conehead doesn't want to have to pay people to properly collect and document crime scene evidence. Good golly, no. That might mean that ET's have to go to court and testify at their slightly higher salaries, and Chicago is beyond broke at this point.
Inability and incompetence breed more inability and incompetence.

Hard to get results you want if you do not coco
Hard to get results you want, unless you control things......like counting.
DEI is alive and well in Chicago
The promotional calendar released last year was a big step forward in getting the promotional process into the 21st century but here we are on January 23, 2025 and the 2025 version isn’t out yet.
These would ideally be published before furlough picks, even if it’s a draft, so people could plan their lives around promotion dates. This department is so ass backwards with telling people on a Friday that you’ll start a brand new gig on a Monday. Good luck to those of you with kids!
110 days without scores being released is just another blunder in a long list from this pathetic city.
Speaking of the broke a$$ city, those of us that retired on the 15th got the surprise of no payroll check today (22nd). Finance claims that there are nearly 200 of us that got “coded out early” and will have to wait 5 business days for a “quick pay” maybe by check or maybe direct deposit.
If I didn’t do 29+ years I would be shocked but it is par for course when dealing with people that can’t even tax the correct checks since we changed to the 7th and 22nd!
So glad to be gone from this city and state!
Hey, SCC:
There are 116 PO’s assigned as Evidence Technicians.
Here is the racial/gender breakdown:
Asian Male: 10
Asian Female: 0
Black Male: 8
Black Female: 7
HIspanic Male: 14
Hispanic Female: 11
Indian Male: 1
Indian Female: 1
White Male: 48
White Female: 16
Asian: 10
Black: 15
Hispanic: 25

White: 64
Asian: 8.62%
Black: 12.93%
Hispanic: 21.55%
Indian: 1.724%
White: 55.17% ***
*** To the powers-that-be, this number is not unacceptable.
And btw: HQ had the results within 30 days, you do the math.
the exact same thing was done in 1985 with the Sergeanyts test. Plus a few more dirty tricks along the way. Dirty mother fuckers
Cone head doesn’t want to have e.t.’s properly collect evidence and process crime scenes because that means that he’ll have to face the fact that his favorite demographic is actually responsible for most of the crime in this city. And against their own people too.
News in- they are making a Sgt class off the old list. A certain somebody isn’t on this new list so Standby.
Just watch Larr Larr do some push-ups.....
CPD announced another Captains class to start after the submitted Captain applications. I know it’s captains and no one cares, but they have at least 35 people still on the captains list that are qualified and trained. However, the list is all whites. They already promoted all the minorities that were also on the list.
This doesn’t pass the smell test. Something crooked going on at headquarters. Goes on every administration rigging promotional testing.
No wonder everyone who knows what’s really going to not come on the job. Total BS.
Yes very true. They did this on the last Lieutenant exam by removing 2 questions in which certain racial groups did poorly. That resulted in these groups test scores raise significantly. By the way this is completely legal. The city has the right to amend the promotional exam questions but not individual canidate scores. In other words it's another way to make sure certain racial groups get extra assistance with the exam. On top of the candidates that have the exam questions. Good luck to all on future promotional exams.
I understand the applications for E.T’s but why on earth do we need more Captains?
Now the upcoming FTO exam will be ONLINE. They’re even rigging FTO these days.
The ET test administered in 2004 was graded same day. The results were in the districts & then within a few weeks or so scores were adjusted when questions were thrown out. Along with being a shorter test it is usually taken by around 1000 or less police officers.
The Chicago way...
I bet those are Chicago public school honor students counting those votes by hand...
What could possibly go wrong with someone promoted to ET that doesn’t know how to preserve evidence or collect evidence? This city is real joke with their DEI hires and promotions. CPD is about as legit as Harvey PD or Ford Heights PD when Ford Heights had a police department.
It's all your fault, you're not working till 90.
I don't know but if that off duty cop firing her weapon randomly around a corner gets promoted you have a lot of problems coming your way....
I've a better chance of dying and being raised by the lord than the city getting it's act together Chicago is just that stupid.
Possible they lost the test.
110 days? That's it?
CFD had a Chief and Captains test a year and a half ago and the results still haven't been released. That's a test that 100 and 300 people took.
Only within the last month the department released the results for the EMS Chief and Ambulance Commander tests. Took them 2 years to release those lists. They sat for those tests in June and August of 2022. EMS Chief test had 50 people on the list. 2 fucking years.
Now we're told that the new Captains list has issues with the education point awarded to certain people. This is after the failure of the 2019 Lt and Chief tests where the oral had to be cancelled because of total incompetence on the part of the chosen testing company. Then, after that was sorted out, certain people were awarded seniority points that they weren't due. Odd how it seems to keep on happening to the same people.
And will anyone ever be held accountable for these failures? Of course not.
But don't you dare be anything other than perfect in every interaction with the public or we'll suspend you for 30 or more days, even for the smaller of infractions.
Fuck this City and both of our departments.
So much for competency.
The CPD promotional exam process is a joke.
They leak the answers to a small number of people.
For the last detective and sergeant exams, part one was pass or fail based on the orders and they toss out some questions and so you just need 37% to 45% to pass part one of the exam.
Part two of the exam is a joke. Two people can show up; one person studied the orders and the second person did not. Both have an equal chance of doing well. How does that make sense?
After the first exam that any of you did “poorly” on. If you took more exams after that then you’re a bonafide moron. The game is rigged and always has been. Just show up for the check, benefits, check, benefits and that’s it.
Complete your 20 and leave the corrupt organization in the rearview.
Not unusual at all for the CFD to take 2 years to process a promotional exam.
Yet all the top scorers were white Patty Casey (subject matter person). Some of the dumbest people I know scored above their IQ.
Does anyone remember back after the result came out, “ some people never had the last page “. The department decided to remove everyone’s last page causing scores to tumble.
I often hear from commentators on this esteemed blog that they studied and passed their exam and thus deserved to be promoted knowing full well that the process is corrupt and illegitimate. I often challenge new supervisors who are full of piss and hubris to produce their scored exam and amazingly not one has met it. To those supervisors gloat and virtue signal just know most of your subordinates know you are full of shit.
How many of the 116 assigned ET's work inside? Asking for a friend
Can’t be true. Fop super president catanzara said old lost is dead. He would never give bad information.
Cheating is the only way a fuckface democRat can win
Reverse discrimination. Trying to bypass the promotion of whites without calling it that. What did Martin Luther King say: he looked forward to the day when a person is not judged by their skin color but by the quality of their actions (paraphrased). We are going the opposite direction of that dream.
Bullshit! J-Cat already declared the old list is dead on his Friday night videos... Stop giving those people that are on the bubble false hope..SMH
You have nothing better to do than spread more BS. None of the rumors have been true
Rumor from HQ is that they are going to have a new class of entirely merit nominees. Then they will make some ET's off of the list later...that's the only way that they could get their people inside according to my sources.
Extremely frustrating when the cheating is this overt. However, CFD schedule, days off, and the laid back work atmosphere make up for the cheating/nepotism. Your battalion Chief isn't really that far from your firefighter when it comes to day to day operations. You all(except the cook) respond to fires and work as a team. Most times I see your Chief doing most of the firefighting not just barking orders. Which I think is admirable- this is what leadership is.
On CPD side, you will never see a CPD chief or LT assist you on ANY call, even if they're in the area.
Late arrest? Violent Domestic? You're on your own, the bosses are gone!
Everyone has the "as long as I gets mines" mentality.
I took the detective exam in 1971 at Wells H.S. and it also was true/false and multiple choice. When you were finished you took your paper to someone in the hall who instantly graded it and gave you a final score on the spot. You could then compare scores with the other lads to get an idea of where you stood on the future list. I said “lads” because there were no female officers until the mid-seventies. It was a much simpler time.
Mega fing lawsuit there. When the new test gives the rank orders out (aka new list), then the old list is dead. Could they do it, sure. It would be a lot of money in settlements. They missed the boat. They could’ve held off on scores til mid January for new list, and start a class in early January off old list. But they didn’t. I will say the fact that they didn’t get to a least 400 off the old list is very sad and disappointing for those below 400 who didn’t make it.
The exact same thing is done on all sgts test.
Also adjusted the weight of each section without any notice.
Approximately 10 Captains will be eligible to retire within the year maxed out with age and time. Thats 30% of the rank.
Just means they are going back to deals in secret. Too much transparency only leads to questions from undesirables. If they could they would not even release any test results for any exam that way they could not receive any questions.
They are still waiting for the mail in ballots to come in so that "no votes are lost"...
Interesting.
Now, I'd like to see a comparison to the percentages of Chicago's population as a whole.
Wrong.
This is not a “blunder”. A blunder is an oversight, an accident or an unintended consequence.
THIS is willfully orchestrated by the Department to enable certain demographics and the clouted to reap undeserved benefits. Again.
The sooner you realize that there is not a single promotional exam on this job that isn’t compromised in some capacity, the better. There is nothing on CPD that is completely legitimate, especially when it comes to the promotional process.
If you make ET, you should max out on deferred comp, get as much comp time as you can (there are ways to get around the FLSA thing), and then hit the money box. You will get tons of OT.
ETs can make or break a case. The good ones have my respect.
Fair is fair - If you can't win fair, cheat fair.
the cpd gives you the test score it wants to give you not what you earn
Yes, Guy Fieri of diners drive thru n dives has donated food to wildfire victims in California and. He has also raised money for wildfire relief efforts.
Maybe they still have the doors openpen for late arrivals.
President Trump wants all DEI hires suspended or fired. IF CPD wants DEI in the ET ranks, lets report them.
Why not acceptable? If the test was administered fairly the percentage of race or gender means nothing. Only the best should be promoted to et…..not by race.
America
Remember the Sgt's who never took the second part of the test because they knew they were getting a merit promotion? Yeah, your working for some of those dumbasses right now...
Blunder - a stupid or careless mistake.
The shoe fits. People on here like to argue about the dumbest shit.
During the last Sgt test, Snelling kept the doors open way over the scheduled start time so that hundreds of tardy lazy ass POs could still participate.
Waited for his DEI minions?
LMFAO wtf
Sounds like those promoted from the recent dicks test ha ha oesn't want to have to pay people to properly collect and document crime scene evidence. Good golly, no. That might mean that ET's have to go to court and testify
Agreed. They have their hit list and their hired list. A$$holes it will catch up to youtes
You post the same thing every single day; democRat.
Do you really think the other political party is any better? You think they don't have systemic corruption in Republican states? Newsflash, I come from a Republican/Red state and they have corruption there too. Politicians are corrupt.
They can’t produce the exam because they don’t have it you dummy.
It took three years to grade test from 1985. Results were those that prepared for the test were in the top 400.
Just like the 1995 Lt. Test. Top 100 studied hard,attended classes but the results were not what. Chicago Politicians wanted . This was the beginning of merit promotion system.
Larry said no more DEi
75!off the old list
Occam's razor: my guess is that the city refused to pay the final bill and they are not giving up the scores until paid.
Your old. Do something else with your life.
I was there on time and early. Saw plenty of late white guys.
To 1/23/2025 12:19:46 PM -
Basically Chicago's population is 30% each Black/Latino/White, the remaining 10% being a mix of Asian/Native/"Other".
Leadership and city hall don't talk about it. But, the city very short in cash.
This is indeed the rumor. Old list being used for next sergeant class in February. FOP of course will bluster and ultimately do nothing.
They are using old list for next sergeant class to make sure they get their people in since they couldn’t pass this new sergeant exam. Just shows how corrupt this place is. Never trust any promotional exam process.
What’s funny is this is actually true. And FOP will do nothing about it because they have no power to do anything about it. Not that JCat cares, he is as clouted as anyone out there.
We don't want nobody nobody sent .
So I did some digging and research. Old lists have to be retired by the Superintendent per the order. I always believed that when the new list comes out that the old list is automatically retired. That being said, has the Superintendent retired the old list? And, as of now, there’s no February class planed off of either list.
No they did not! IO solutions refused to alter the scoring and city were forced to putting out the list out within 60 days of part 2. Look at the first class of merits from that Lt list are all exempts. Except for 2-3 but dont worry they needed to polish them up in professional development just a matter of time. Must be nice!
Jakstavich also wrote in the FOP -Chicago Lodge Monthly publication for January 2025 that the old Sgt. list is no longer with a consolation gifted statement of, "please continue to work at your dreams of a promotion on this job, we need you......." - a better luck next time sentiment.
