FOP Charges?

Is this something?

  • According to FOP Lodge 7 Constitution and By Laws dated and revised on September 21, 2022, there is a section in regards to Duties And Obilgations.

    Article II - Duties And Obligations

    Section 1. States “….he or she shall be subject to discipline for any action, inaction or omission which constitutes a violation of his or her duties and obligations as stated in this Constitution and By-Laws….”

    Section 2. Any member may be disciplined for committing any one or more of the following offenses.

    (d) Causing or attempting to cause withdrawal or succession of this or any other Subordinate Lodge from The State or Grand Lodge;….

It sounds like something.

It sounds like a whole lot of wishful thinking by a couple people that love rumors and want to believe there is some kind of 4D chess move by the FOP happening

jpus has a duty and oblig to treat all f.o.p members including 300 of those who came back 2 cpd fairly and not as secondary f.o.p members like he has been. The f.o.p board is guilty 4 allowing it. reps know about it and are silent as well, except during gossip time. comments are becoming more frequent bringing it to light

We need to vote him out. JJC is no longer for the members and only represents the selected few with political connections or those whomake headlines. F everything and everyone else. JJC enjoys spending our dues on everything except representing officers

Dude, you and the other 299 quit the job and lateraled to another department. NO you should not be entitled to sit for promotions till you reestablish continuous service time from the date you return.
We don’t want leaders on our department that just got back.

Great, they can add this to the one that's coming down from another state. Johnny decided to call the President of another Lodge to bash a member that transferred from Lodge 7 to his. Unbeknownst to John, this president actually respects his members and treats them fairly and Johnny was on speakerphone, with other members listening. Not very fraternal.

He’s only been about himself since day 1. That’s why he was getting fired & retired.

Promotions? People that have 1 year on and work inside or haven't even been hired yet have been slotted for those positions. No need to worry.

Leave Cat alone, he's good for us. The issue is the board. Elect a strong board rather than a board that follows the orders of John.

Nobody is “entitled” to anything.
If somebody has the experience and the qualifications they shouldn’t be excluded from being considered for the position they want.

Ultimately the city decided to rehire people. The FOP agreed to it too and is doing a bad job advocating for people. Instead it’s like they wanna punish people wanting something different or being “disloyal”… it’s weird.

Wrong. That was never part of the agreement. Read the agreement then speak. Cops were only supposed to lose seniority for bidding, but keep their service time for testing, pay, and vacation. No different than those who took LOA. But, it sounds like you're just one of the haters that hate people who had the opportunity to try something different. Not everyone left the job to go to another PD. Some left for covid and other family reasons.

My brother was stripped for Covid and there were two different zoom meetings when they were coming back . My brother was not invited to the meeting and the second meeting he pushed the camera so Catanzara’s could see him . Catanzara’s response to him was “what are you in this meeting for ? “
My brothers response was “ I’m stripped for Covid .” Catanzara then went on and argued with him telling he was not . Either it was on purpose he didn’t know or he’s just incompetent . This guy is never at work and isn’t allowed above the 1st floor at headquarters . He retired without credentials and spends more money than any other president in the history of the Fop .
But hey “ John’s speaks up !” Please show up and vote this guys by-laws down . It’s becoming a dictatorship not a union . If this was the Godfather a lot of us would be in the front seat with the cannoli !

So Martin Prieb, aka the librarian, has brought Charges against J-Cat. This twice failed FOP presidential candidate is trying to make a name for himself by bringing these charges. Marty is as useless as Graham was. Marty has written a book He got caught paying for his ghost writer with FOP funds and he should have been charged with theift. He was forced to pay the lodge back.

Unfortunately for the librarian J-Cat was recorded at both the board and general meetings this satiating lodge 7 is not leaving the FOP. But this may force J-Cat to stay in his lane.

Kevin Graham, the Illinois Governor’s body double, is in the wings ready in case the National FOP wants to remove J-CAT.

Graham as the gov body double is priceless. Still laughing. The only guy who did less work in the department besides Cantazara is old foot man turned counselor Graham. How do these absolutely useless employees become the president of our lodge? It’s been baffling to me for 30 years.. isn’t there actually a couple of working coppers out there that want to step up I’d be in charge of this organization who actually understand what coppers on the street go through on a daily basis. Maybe someday it’ll happen

scc, in light of posting about rehires, you should know that Jakstavich and Jcat are laying down, walking back the original signed agreement that rehires lose seniority. John said at the last general meeting that he’s negotiating with the city to change it to give seniority back. Jimmy is terrified of losing reelection- we won’t forget jimmy

Graham has long been a steadfast mentor and advocate for the officers of the Chicago Police Department, especially those who have served under his guidance in the 019th District. Known for his steady leadership and deep understanding of street-level policing, Graham patrolled the diverse neighborhoods of the 019th with a commitment that earned him the trust and respect of both his fellow officers and the communities they served.

His dedication didn’t stop at the end of a shift. As President of the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 7, Graham brought an unmatched work ethic and vision to the role, accomplishing more for the rank-and-file than the last three union presidents combined. Under his leadership, the union saw significant progress in advocacy, contract negotiations, and support structures for officers, setting a new standard for what union leadership could achieve.

Even after his tenure as president, Graham continues to give back, playing a vital role in peer support. His ability to connect with officers during their most challenging moments, offering guidance, understanding, and a sense of brotherhood, has made him a cornerstone of wellness efforts within the department.

Through every stage of his career, Graham has remained a mentor, a fighter for fairness, and a constant source of support for Chicago’s police officers. His legacy is defined not just by what he has achieved, but by the countless lives and careers he has helped shape along the way.

Say what you want but we should apologize to Graham and re-elect him as FOP President.

Even worse-----some left for covid or family reasons...
People went into no pay status holding the line, that takes balls.
Some people take care of a sick mother and handicapped children and still go to work.
You left the CPD job, end of story. Work the street for three years and then take another exam.

Is this EA complaining because he won’t get his sgt promotion? You got balls to trespass at McCormick taking the sgt’s exam as a des plaines police officer. Sorry you won’t get your promotion. Hopefully they don’t run you out of Cpd again like they did to you in 025.

Graham needs to go retire from the police department and fade into the sunset.

Look how he behaves in EAP, talking about himself and his accomplishments and everything HE has done.

Furthermore, Jimmy IS afraid of losing his spot. this is why he tries to be everyone’s friend including the rehire, who have given him nothing but brief since day 1.

he refuses to tell them to eat shit but he’s counting votes.

You wonder why some hard-working coppers would want to step in?? Why the useless run for office?? Hard working coppers do not have time for politics, too busy being the police. Do nothings have nothing but time to either run for office or suck the chubby for office space or promotions. Life on the CPD has been like this forever.

History of FOP leadership: In the beginning they were the organization for the traffic division. They won the playoff between C.O.P. and the Teamsters. Every president has made a deal with city hall, or so it seems, to piss & moan and then fold. Jane Byrne gave us the first contract; she loved the police.

Looks like John is a bit more into himself and may have delusions of grandeur about leading a multi-jurisdictional union. Even if that was not a violation of the by-laws, he still has to fight with the state legislature and Fatass. Maybe looking for a statewide position deal??? Just a thought.

Hold the line ? Remember that one ? Catanzara’s doing a video saying “ I don’t care if the SUPERINTENDENT commands you to enter the portal tell him to stick it !” Two months later at a Fop meeting he says well we asked but ultimately if you get you head chopped off it was “ YOUR DECISION !” Hold the bag is more like it !
