CFD Lawsuit Inbound (UPDATE)

You'd think that after moving their HQ into CPD HQ a few years back, they might seek out some guidance regarding actual Law....but then, it would be CPD exempts they're asking and the number of morons among our upper echelon are legendary:

  • Today CFD IAD and Command Staff member John Geis went to the  firehouse at 3918 N Harlem Avenue (Engine 86). In addition to searching the firehouse and the personal lockers and bags of CFD members working today, all members were ordered to unlock their cars to be searched WITHOUT A WARRANT. 

    I’m no 4th amendment expert, but I’m pretty certain that there is a lawsuit to be filed over this. They can search your bags, lockers and anything you bring into the firehouse, but I’m damn sure they cannot search your personal car without a warrant, even if it’s on city property.

Each and every CFD member better be suing the shit out of the City, the CFD and the exempt involved.

UPDATE: Someone in the comments says that they were targeting CCL holders? If so, now we have an even larger scandal if CFD is either (A) accessing the CCL database or (B) getting someone else to access the CCL database for an illegal investigation.

Now we don't only need to see lawsuits, we need people fired, jailed for Official Misconduct and stripped of their pensions because this is definitely "duty related" misconduct.

CFD IAD and inspections personal are basically fucking COWARDS.

Many of them are afraid of fighting fires so they volunteer or call their clout to get these jobs. Fuckin' pussies.

Take a look at who is in charge of the Fire IAD and you'll see why their personnel are given the orders to do this.

DEI / "merit" is a complete failure in this country.
Cities as well as all government entities will be paying millions of dollars in lawsuits because of these low IQ half-wit fuckin' morons being promoted and hired.

Years ago, a local School District had some bullshit sign posted stating that "All Vehicles Entering This Property Are Subject To Search". I called up the Superintendent and asked him how he felt about being named in a Federal Civil Rights Lawsuit - personally and professionally. Explained what was going on...

Sign was gone that day. Schools might have some kind of easier search involving STUDENTS that are in the schoolhouse and under their control, but they can go fuck themselves for anyone else.

You got reasonable suspicion? Great. You got more suspicion and got a warrant? Even better.

Until then? Go fuck yourself. Car's locked and no, you can't take a peeksiepoo

A higher-ranking friend on Fire Side relates that they came in and targeted CFD employees on scene who are CCL holders to see if they had firearms in their personal vehicles. He was told they checked glove boxes, trunks, center consoles, etc. If even remotely accurate, a few points to consider:

1. Did somebod(ies) access (restricted) databases to ascertain which employees were CCL holders?

2. Did somebod(ies) employ CPD or any other LE agency with access to LEADS to run plates to discover and target those with CCL’s?

3. Unless there exists conditions of employment that CFD employees signed-off on, why in fucking Hell would any hosedragger allow their personal vehicles to be searched without a warrant?

I’d hope someone in their union is seeking seeking preservation orders on all communication devices of those CFD Bossholes on scene directing this nonsense. Same for any databases possibly used to identify CCL holders. Same for any internal databases that may have been used.

Those targeted need to bury every cocksucker who’s fingerprints are on this debacle.

I said this was going to happen? Why? Because it has happened before? Or as it’s said, been there and done it before? IAD and Command staff at CFD just think there is no protection and give direct orders to open personal vehicles? Look it up years ago they did this? And did the city pay through the nose for it?

Nothing will happen just as you all were forced to take the vax and Snelling and the hispanic midget( forgot his name) were promoted to the top. New normal.

I agree. I believe case law I read (years ago) said they can open your locker, but can not open bags or containers without a warrant. Same for personal vehicles. They could probably also sue for having their photos taken while holding ID cards/ DLs for the DNC (ar the request of USSS). CFD exempts didn't question a request from federal law enforcement about creating a photo database? I bet if it was ICE instead of USSS they'd lose their minds.

Sue these bitches before you retire. Returning to Shitcago for depositions will be a pain in the ass.

I'm not a lawyer, but if the car is parked on CFD property I think it can be searched.

Why the fuck did any of them comply? Seriously, not one of them has a clue how things work? Hello…. 4th Amendment, anybody? I wish they’d try that shit where I work. BWC would be rolling for sure.
