Another Dead Body
But this time, someone called it in:
The ShotSpotter gunfire detection system that Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson decided to scrap last year would have come in handy Friday morning when 911 callers reported gunfire near the 4700 block of West West End.
The people who heard the shots didn’t see anything; they just heard it. After about ten minutes of searching, around 9:23 a.m., the cops found shell casings at the mouth of an alley. They then found 17-year-old Drevon Watson lying in that alley. He had been shot in the chest. At Stroger Hospital, a doctor pronounced him dead.
It took ten minutes to locate the shell casings, and an unknown number of additional minutes to locate the victim.
Ten minutes is more than enough time to make a significant difference in living or dying.
By the way, if you haven't been following the CWB blog this weekend, you're missing out on a significant number of crimes, shootings and murders. This weekend has already surpassed the past few years and may herald the spring killing season is underway.
Sixty-plus degree days on tap for next week!

What?
But Mayor BITCH said all the illegals were helping cut down on the crime problem?
I am a fan shotspotter but I thought many CPD Officers hated the technology? I see its used to shit on the mayor (deservedly) but also I saw a lot of comments that hated the technology
Thank God 376 is beyond fully staffed. There's no need for additional manpower on the street, thank goodness.
Officers on the naughty list for the most trivial of things, left to sit.
Larry, you're beyond retarded. Dickhead.
Self-cleaning ghetto oven... who cares?
Don't believe that shit! Conehead said crime in Chicago is decreasing. I believe him. I mean, if you cannot trust your mayor, who can you trust? Not a fucking soul on this planet, including Conehead!
Great news keep up the great work like stacks of pancakes
Keep the line moving.
I don't think I ever got an answer to this query. If someone did respond, I missed it. Is it true the CPD re-categorized catalytic converter theft as "misplaced property" to reduce the statistics?
Add one more to the Brandon Johnson body count.

So far in 2025 we’ve had 71 homicides and are averaging 2 carjackings and 7 armed robberies per day. Somehow every weekend a department of 12,000 gets outsmarted and outmaneuvered by 3 black kids in a stolen car with a Glock and Airsoft rifle…or a bunch of pothead Fast & Furious wannabes who take over any major street intersection of their choosing. Let the white-shirts, activists and Democrats figure it out. Our only duty is to survive until retirement.
looks like that old school shot spotter worked,,,, the beat car,,,,
and were certain neighborhoods getting shot spotter and other certain neighborhoods not getting it? are the legal, tax paying, law-abiding citizens not worthy of that protection???
What's the problem,I don't get it?
I plugged up a guy at independence and Roosevelt (shocking) with about a few ounces of blood left before he died. All because of racism (i.e., shotspotter). There were (also shockingly) no 911 calls.
Don't need Shot Spotter, it only helps democrats and criminals
I thought crime was down. That's what Mayor Cementhead told Congress last week.
just another day....
Yeah but, Gaaary MacAaaaaarthy, says weather has no impact on crime statistics.
Just about everybody killed , allegedly due to Shotspotter not being around, has been a jagoff anyway. Is it really worth millions for the product and the drain on manpower to save the lives of these fools? I say hell no!
Let the self-cleaning oven continue.
He's such a jagoff ....meaning 24/7
Let the hoodrats eliminate their own.
The only people who can help curtail the massive amount of shooting, robbery and killing are the black community themselves. Besides singing, marches, signs, placing candles and liquor bottles and using the phony and useless " violence interrupters ", nothing will ever change. Yes, lets blame racism, white supremacy the death of DEI and anything else they can grab onto to avoid the truth, the killing will continue as it has for 100 years.
Once again, this seems to be a Black/Brown problem. 🥱
C'mon man! This is just the opening of Flather Flegers annual "Festival of The Gunfire Lights Festival ". Happens every year about this time..usually lasts til November...
but with what conehead said about how low crime is in Chicago we do not need shot spotter or the police or even traffic signals or speed cameras
BLM not really to Democrats or the wealthy that support democrat candidates. Gov JB allows criminals out on signatures, allowed Chicago to be looted, businesses burnt . Look at CPS , attendees are 90% black , CTU overpaid.
In keeping with the "crime is down" statement by our raggedy mayor, the investigation was proceeding as a death investigation/possible suicide.
Good thing mayor moron removed that racist ass shot spotter ! It’s saving the taxpayers a ton of money in medical expenses, and ambulance rides !
Sounds like CPD Crime Killing, 101 Next, Rape will be re-categorized as...'Assault With A Friendly Weapon."
Chalkie got busy before St. Pats weekend.
No, crime is not going down. Instead folks just don't bother reporting it anymore. Call 911, and nobody comes, or they tell you to go in the station or call 311.
Had my car hit by gunfire, the police refused to come out. Said I had to go into the station for a report. Still got the bullet on my desk.
Good!
Criminals should start the killing frenzy early. The more, the better. Less of them will be roaming the streets by Labor Day.
No innocent victims here.
Eleven hundred from the pod room thinks that be on Austin’s side.
Keep the killing coming.
quite honestly, i've had enough of the crime and destruction of this city. i'm ready to retire from this shit-show. Shotspotter was as effective at solving crime as black lives matter. never prevented anyone from being shot or killed. Who gives a fuck anymore. This City has been lawless for a while. this will continue no matter who the mayor or President is.
what a self absorbed piece of Shit he was.
always has been
I'm actually happy they stopped paying sst, who cares in the end the city is broke and the people shot..... Well
