More Yoyo

CWB is building on the clusterfuck that is Yoyo's promotion:

  • Talley was never accused of being involved in the incident, other than loaning her car to a relative. However, CPD’s superintendent at the time, David Brown, benched all of the officers who arrested Miles that day without providing a public explanation.

    CWBChicago later reported exclusively that Miles was also the “John Doe” who provided incorrect information to Chicago cops that resulted in the infamous mistaken raid on Anjanette Young’s home.

    Now, Talley will become Snelling’s top aide, responsible for the department’s day-to-day operations. The post has been vacant since the last “first,” Eric Carter, retired in the spring of 2023.

We recall speculating at the time that anyone who had their car impounded for dope that they (claim) had no idea was in the possession of someone else in the car, suddenly had grounds for an appeal of sorts.

And the dumbass move by Texas Brownie putting the arresting officers in desk duty with no evidence of wrongdoing....aside from catching a family member of the head of IAD family. 

A number of commentators are pointing out Yoyo's ties to the Ervin crime family - Melissa's scandal-plagued reign over at the City Treasurers Office and Aldercreature Jason's litany of disasters including the stripper-in-the-office incident and the crackhouse he owned in the suburbs. 

If the dope in Yoyo's car had been cocaine, we would have wondered if her niece was headed to or from Maywood.

The dem’s have done it again. You have to get information from a westsider, Homan Square and social media because it’s deep as horse sh-. CWB Chicago and the Suntimes are diving in. First Deputy Superintendent Talley and Anjanette Young went to school together. They both know convicted felon Ken Miles, who served two years for the drugs in First Deputy Talley’s personal vehicle. Ken Miles was arrested and a Cook County Judge found him guilty. Ken Miles was arrested again a few months after the drug incident, but was released without charges.

Don’t forget Alderman Jason Ervin and City Treasurer, Melissa Conyear Ervin’s drug house
over in Maywood that we hit a few times when I was in Vice. Earlier today, a commenter that attends city council meetings suggested that Tally (must be) and the Ervins are big campaign contributors to Conehead ,Congressman Danny Davis, Alderman Emma Mitts, Alderman Monique Scott, Alderman William Burnett Jr, etc. Someone on social media suggested that the Ervins agree with/to everything Conehead puts on the city council floor. Someone suggested that the Ervins gets things passed at the city council for Conehead. More rumors has it that based on the colors (blue/yellow) it appears that Female Ervin is in the same sorority as DEI Benn and DEI Ward. If you know anything about Chicago politics you’d know that Male Ervin is the head of the Black Caucus which encompasses Black politicians and church leaders, mostly from the westside. The Black Caucus stood behind the female on the that was allegedly drugged when she ran over an officer with his own patrol vehicle on the westside. Bloggers found out that the female has ties to Conehead and Prickwrinkle. This is why Trump is pushing to get rid of the DEI garbage.

IG Deborah Witzburg is a disgrace, Superintendent Snelling is now playing the race game and morale in the department is sinking fast. The question is Yolanda Talley faced no disciplinary action. Her decision to give her niece her Lexus, have a male with heroin driving in the vehicle, then basically threaten officers with her aunt’s title should automatically disqualify her. Chief Snelling, you have let the force and the City of Chicago down. I never thought you would play politics in your position but obviously was wrong.

Bottom line is 95% or more of this command staff have no business being in the positions they’re in. This same group pretty much has no business being police officers.

Let’s follow the pattern of IAD or IAB. Back when they put Deb Kirby in as Deputy Chief of IAD. How she was called to testify in open court about police misconduct and how she lied about her involvement? It’s court record? They moved Kirby out to shut her up? But Kirby had already brought in Barz in as her cleaner and he becomes upset when Hall, Fenner and Ward all score at top of Lieutenant list? So they give Barz and the top 3 spots as Lieutenants? Just to shut down all the bad press? Now you get Yolanda Talley who cannot find her sidearm? Who has no control of her personal vehicle when used in the commision of a crime? All while assigned in IAD as Chief? Now you see Talley as Deputy Chief of IAD become First deputy? All so she can pad her pension for being a bad cop? Just like Barz, Hall, Fenner and Ward? If you missed it the cycle of distrust and promotion all stems from within IAD/IAB? And you worry about how this Department is headed? It in same $hit hole it’s been in for years? What this promotion of Talley really means is that Snelling is going on Furlough and they needed an idiot to fill the seat while Snelling is gone? I have seen Talley work and she is in the deep end and cannot swim? Just watch how fast they move her out?

Melissa Conyears-Ervin is as dirty as they come, she probably doesn’t wipe her ass after shitting. Pure scumbag. In fact if you guys aren’t aware she is on the Pension Board. This dirt bag had the audacity to vote no to duty disability benefits for officers suffering from PTSD, officers involved in shootings or serious trauma. But when it came time to vote no for a PTSD claim by Cynthia Donald for having a consensual sexual relationship with special Ed, she votes to award her duty disability benefits. Thankfully the rest on the board had common sense, but this is a prime example of the crookedness of the Ervin crime family.

And because of the "John Doe" incident you now have this. The House Judiciary- Criminal Committee voted 8-5 to pass House Bill 1611. Under the proposed law, police must knock, announce themselves and allow a person at least 30 seconds to answer the door when executing a warrant at a residence. Police would also be required to execute residential warrants between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m., Other new requirements would including having paramedics close to respond to medical issues, prohibiting police from pointing guns at minors and a ban on handcuffing parents or guardians in front of children unless they are an “immediate threat.”

Wouldn't be surprised if HB1611 only applied to LE agencies with population over 1 million.(CPD only).
It appears that every law enforcement agency, every judge, every FED, every coroner and every medical profession is immune to civil lawsuits. But CPD officers are NOT!!!!
Merely assisting on a SW and officer's name is anywhere on case or arrest reports they're f-ed. FBI does not honor FOIA and if they do their agent's names are redacted so good luck attempting to identify any agent. But assisting CPD officer's name aren't redacted even on FBI FOIA reports. Additionally, our department provides all our personal information upon request. Might as well give them our SS numbers.

If ordered to assist on a SW the trick is to activate the BWC. Feds don't want their warrant execution recorded and will ask you to deactivate. If you refuse they don't need you inside.

At the very least, the chief of IAD let niecy drive her vehicle while suspended. This alone would necessitate a log number for the everyday patrol division warrior, but when you factor in narcotics contained in this vehicle with a known relative at the wheel, this is a full blown investigation. Many officers have been sent to purgatory or the alternate response unit for less serious transgressions and stripped pending the outcome of the investigation. Seems like a double standard. I don't wish anyone bad but its about time to level the playing field.

In case some CPD snowflakes have not yet made the leap to a conclusion just yet...This is what corruption looks like. CPD is run by a corrupt political machine. It is now at the highest levels of CPD. Snelling is complicit in this decision because he knew what Yo-Yo was all about. Supt Brown stripped the officers without just cause was an act of retaliation. This goes very deep. Remember that next time someone gets stripped. With Yo-Yo sitting at the No. 2 spot.
Is it worth risking yourself, and your career? For now, hunker down in any port. A long storm is brewing...and she looks like a bad one.

Yes. Everyone is fooled into thinking the officers were placed on desk duty but that's far from the truth.

Phone call unit covers up the traffic stop felonies. In turn phone call unit is hidden inside for few months. Everyone believes phone call unit is "punished" but in reality they're working 2 days a week awaiting their promotion. CPD at it's best. Don't ask how I know.

At one point I hear Barz's voice. He introduces himself and tells my young female partner how she's doing such a great job as a police officer, how she'll be promoted etc etc. All the fluff ................
This girl is fresh off her cycles and probably hasn't had even 3 arrest total to her name. When we finally leave she tells me Barz told her, on the down low, that if she liked to work 3rd watch or tact he can make it happen anytime, just for her.

They aren’t going to “move her out”.
Way too much time and effort went to putting her in that spot. She’s going to leave when she wants to. Snelling’s replacement will probably keep her around too.
Unless we get a new mayor.

The old days exempt crew and today's exempt crew has at least one big difference. I trusted the old days exempt crew when they arrived on the scene of an incident. Yes, some old days exempt were drunks, gamblers, wife cheaters, or politically connected. But they all actually worked the streets and never forgot what it was like to be a cop. The old days exempt had the knowledge and experience to handle day to day operations and major incidents. Today's exempt crew, nobody wants you around.

Look, everyone should know how this played out. Larry did not want her, she was forced on him by the Mayor. The other contenders: Ursitti, Devries, Hein and Novalez , were not acceptable; three Whites and a Hispanic. The Mayor, who is a huge racist, wouldn’t allow anyone but a black, so she was the highest ranking and Larry was told to make her. Whites and Hispanics need not apply, they don’t even try to hide it anymore.

Why didn't the niece get a ticket for driving suspended?

Why didn't Yoyo get cited for allowing an unlicensed driver to operate her car? (625 ILCS 5/6-304)

CYA if you ever get something like this. Either go all in, or let them go. You go all in so they can't retaliate against you. Go halfway, that's when you get benched.

Why the Chicago Police Department is Declining

CPD name new first deputy superintendent was the headline in the Tribune. Her name is Yolanda Talley. If this name sounds familiar, it’s because she was in the news a few months ago. She was the head of the Internal Affairs of the CPD. While in that position, which investigates police wrongdoing, her niece was stopped by Chicago police conducting a narcotics operation. The niece was driving Talley’s car. (There are questions about whether the vehicle was a squad car or her personal vehicle) The passenger threw a baggy of heroin out the window and was arrested. The niece stated to the police officers “You probably work for my aunt”, and was not arrested as is protocol because she was in control of the vehicle containing narcotics. It’s also the department rule that the vehicle be confiscated and towed; this never happened.
Talley is now in charge of 9,000 Chicago Police Officers. This is the leadership that controls the protection of Chicago’s citizens. It’s an embarrassment.

Retired CPD Sergeant

She retaliated against them anyway. She manipulated and convinced Former Superintendent David Clown that there was a such thing as “soft stripping” officers that make large drug bust to provide them with better training. David Clown stated that the officers needed more training during a press conference and later realized it didn’t make sense. The officers were placed on desk duty as part of being stripped. Lori Lightfoot came to Talley’s aid because Talley used to tell her everything that the other exempts were doing. Lori Lightfoot and Aldermen called for Talley regularly for information on others. Former Chief Cato and Lori Lightfoot are neighbors. Cato was Talley Lori Lightfoot’s horse in the race during the search for the new Superintendent. Cato retired after interfering in the drug bust, so they settled for the current Supe.

YoTalley was a raggedy pick. I thought Conehead said "We don't do raggedy Ya'll" ...
Shame on Snelling for allowing this pick in an admin that he is supposed to be running.
I suppose it is within the realm of possibility that they don't know about Yo-Yo. But that doesn't constitute plausible deniability, that just proves ignorance. Conehead and Snelling just couldn't pick someone smarter than they are. Or, there were truly no other qualified people.

No, they are not trying to hide it. They are shoving it in our faces and are blatantly laughing and having a good old time which is why they did it on St. Patrick’s Day. I thought it was unusual that they would announce changes on a Monday when it is always done on a Friday evening. While working at 35th St. I overheard that it was intentionally done on a Monday (St. Patrick’s Day) to make a point that the Irish don’t run shit anymore. The fact that the Mayor had made his mind up months ago that Talley was going to get it and that none of the 1st Deputy contenders ever had a chance from the beginning should be looked into. This was strategically planned and executed on St. Patrick’s day and was indeed racially motivated because no one but a black was going to be the 1st under the Mayor’s watch.

They didn't do their jobs. They didn't tow the car, they didn't issue Talley a citation for allowing an unlicensed driver to operate her car, and they didn't get a CR on her. They violated policies. This is what you get when you do a job half-ass trying to protect the connected.

A former interim Superintendant temporarily suspended the practice. So, the Superintendant who serves at the behest of the mayor and likely follows orders. A lot of our old bosses were clout heavy with Ritchie Daley and Ed Burke.

Can we for once pick the best, most experienced instead of the most DEI. Look at her work history and complimentary history, it's nonexistent. She literally did nothing, all her units and promotions were affirmatively actioned. Pick anyone else, pick a fucking sergeant who has worked the street their entire career, no merit no affirmative action. I think that would go over so much better that this useless ghetto POS.

And to think that everyone is giving Snelling a pass talking about “it wasn’t his decision” to make her the First. He sat in the meet. He knew that it was in the making. He jokes about her stripping and dumping members.

I agree with you, but the problem is that the passing score isn’t known. Can anyone tell you how well you have to do to pass part 1? The department plays with the scores…eliminates some questions in order to get the right mix to move on to part 2 where one is eligible for merit promotion
