Hey Larritorious
Rules are for all you little people, not the connected:
- ....the ivory tower sent out reminders of the smoking standards as well as the prescribed shoes as per the uniform standards. If you look at Uniform and Property U04-01 UNIFORM AND APPEARANCE STANDARDS you will look down to SECTION XXI SUBSECTION I LINE ITEM 12. (Members WILL NOT) wear iridescent, brightly colored, or nonconservative personal items (e.g., eyeglass/sunglass frames, pens, watches, etc.) while in uniform.
So why on the police department Facebook page at a ceremony for interns is Deputy Chief Senora Ben wearing the same YELLOW glasses that have been worn in D.C. and other functions. That seems to be a violation of that section of the order pertaining to non conservative colored eyeglasses. So sergeants are expected to check shoes, bump cards, and other uniform infractions while there is a deputy chief in violation daily? This little shit is part of the problems with discipline, outside of promoting those that shouldn’t be promoted. I may sound salty but I’m not enforcing rules that aren’t enforced on those telling us to enforce the rules. It isn’t right.
Of course it isn't right. The "Rules" seem to exist only to hammer the unconnected or to pile on the punishments after some other violation is observed.
But good for the commenter refusing to enforce the bullshit that Larry and the command staff can't be bothered to enforce on themselves.

Rules for thee, but not for me.
Hard to believe nearly 40 years ago I got sent to direct traffic for 8 months on the south side.
Car pulls up, uniformed driver says "The Deputy Superintendent of Police wants to know why you are out here wearing red sun glasses, blowing a red whistle.
It was 95 degrees, I was not in a good mood.
I looked at them and replied "Becuse if I do not, my sergeant yells at me."
They shook their heads, drove away.
Never heard from them again.
Oh u can’t hit Senora for anything. Her bright yellow glasses. Her long colorful nails. Her constantly being late for Compstat. Her constant cacklin on teams meetings and unprofessionalism. Just so ALL of us are clear.. her white nerd slave PRT Lt runs all of area 2. If dumb dumb doesn’t know the answer, she calls the nerd 10 times a day and he handles it for her. If he wasn’t there, she would be a laughingstock.

You’re racist if you bring up her glasses or her behavior. Don’t you know it’s just part of their culture. Thats their put every time. Just like the defense of you can’t fire me I’m
Just an independent black woman who can talk to anyone however I want.
This is kind of reaching. Just wear black shoes and shave. It really isn’t hard.
The bosses on our job are totally into themselves. A bunch of dictators.
Just like the captain of 002’s red hot Cheeto hair
They gonna put out a memo for the former 18th dist yoga pant princess, who's now in 012, letting her know she needs to be in proper attire that can secure a duty weapon? Or just wear a weapon at all? All the hugs to the inspectors at lolla must be the reason for their inattention to duty. Zero self respect and zero professionalism.
When are they going to start nailing the special ghost payrollers.
Huge, bright-yellow glasses enhance projected authority. The new "gravitas!" Puts the old Kissinger look to shame.
I see these "I AM THE FUTURE" T-shirts, and I realize that's what frightens me.
So what's with with Tiff Henyard after the "Lightfoot Report?"
pfft
It was so refreshing to not see Talley in that photo.
Why would any boss wear loud colored glasses while in uniform? Ben hasn’t read that order or any other order for that matter. She’s another loser that has received four merit promotions. The 006th District is crumbling on her watch. It’s starting to feel like 005, haunted.
My sergeant doesn’t say shit when I wear my crocs. They’re so much more comfortable. Thanks Sarge!
We talkin bout the same Señora Ben who was caught plagiarizing at one of the CPD diploma mills?
The commentator must be a young officer and I agree with the comment. After 20+ years on the job I've seen it all the time, only incompetent people are rewarded, from promotions to protecting them when they fuck up. Now that I've been gone for 4 years, I look back and realize that our police department and every other police department is not designed to protect society, Us the citizen, police departments are designed to protect governments interest and that it. The war on drugs has never existed and all broken mirrors. I look back at how I worked hidden behind bushes, abandoned house to catch the dealers to stop the sale of it. I'm just glad I didn't catch any LEAD. Just so your time, connect a pay check. CPD is ran by imbecile who are incompetent.
Mickey mouse bullshit cannot compete with merit muffin mouse pimple popping.
Indifference anymore, that's all. Once great CPD is done and never to return.
hahahaha,,, silly rabbit rules are only for the white man and woman,,, unless they have clout
That’s how it’s always been with the brass. They tell us one thing and they do the other. Larry is no different.
I'm putting together my bling fake diamond phone case and earpiece in case I get a phone cawl while OTJ.
The issue isn't enforcement the issue is respect for the uniform. It's obviously ego driving it, they just want to be seen. Point themselves out in any picture. Probably looking for a political future.
Maybe because it matches her patches
Don’t forget Yo-yos hair. Quarterman (fucking commander of Inspectors) always looks like sloppy shit and her hair out of regs. In fact there’s very few exempts that look squared away.
You have to wonder what other agencies like secret service, state department etc think of these people when they have to get involved with this department.
You are part of the problem.
Will the glasses with the rubber nose and moustache become standard issue?
Very fair point. At training the other day I saw a guy with face tattoos and dreads past his shoulders but make sure you have the right pens. This place is a joke. Done in 5 years can’t wait
the pension is going broke only at about 19% funded it will never survive for you young Officers but keep in mind this clown will be drawing bout 160,ooo a year for the rest of her life for doing nothing and not passing a test. Now is the time to stop these GOLD BRAIDE Stolen PENSIONS!
The same one that had a mental breakdown? Not surprised
Senora Benn, another NOBLE test prep member, but with the test couldn't break the top 20. On the list of those who had the test, and yet still keeps being promoted. Shows you how much of a democratic and DEI run city it was. To all the IAD sell outs, was the paltry promotion worth covering up the cheating?
Oh Lord are we going to cry about bump cards and beards again???
What is wrong with looking sharp? Looking the part? Doing what you are told? For the pay/benefits I got, they could tell me what they wanted and I listened.
Secret service should never speak again about anything, ever.
right now R&D is working to remove the word "conservative" from all general orders. Conservative = Republican = BAD word.
But does in match the rug? Whew!
teeeeeeeeee heeeeeeee you can't fix stupid it's forever
I’m a retired CFD boss. I used to tell newly promoted officers that they needed to follow all the rules until they had a good understanding of how important each individual rule was, the understanding of the consequences, and the ability to accept said consequences. And a deal breaker was breaking rules in front of subordinates and then enforcing those rules on them. A solid understanding of your job coupled with a heavy dose of common sense goes a long way. And, at all costs, don’t be a hypocrite.
Proper uniform and grooming? Whether or not the public or a boss gives you the respect you deserve, respect yourself and look professional.
These "bosses" do not realize that they are mocked by outsiders and looked down upon with zero respect. It would have been the same effect internationally if Kamala won.
Let’s see the pic
He’s a good guy. And you are correct, she brought him there so he could do all of her work, no doubt about it. But nerd??? Cmon!!! Lay off Nicky!! Quirky but great guy and a good copper!
Just think clean shaven Larry- in his long sleeves, tie, hat and shiny shoes- looks around at his exempt staff and does nothing about their appearance.....he can't do anything about the incompetence but certainly he could make em dress right
2001 traffic detail in the loop. Literally zero outside had a gortex face covering on. Fat slob Female Lt. in charge of the detail pulls up to me at my intersection and tells me to take off the face covering, while the heat in her car is blasting and she isn’t even wearing a coat. I told her I’d take it off if she got out of her car and took it from me. Rolled up her window and drove away
You go girl....
“For my friends, everything. For my enemies, the law.”
Seriously!!!The secret service almost got President Trxyp erased due to incompetent DEI hires. State Drpt is is another example. Yes the typos are deliberate. It throws off AI analhsis and profilkng.
The only exempt staff member I ever seen in my 31 year career that wore the proper uniform to including the Sam brown leather gun belt and holster was Deputy Chief Sean Joyce. He was the what this department needed and they ran him off this job. The incompetent were intimidated by his competence and leadership abilities
a few years back we had a commander of Intelligence that could not get a security clearance in order to attend a federal briefing on organized crime. The Feds called him " Commander Cartoons" for his penchant for watching cartoons on a TV in his office. Nothing new going on here. The Feds are not the best that they claim to be but they have it on the CPD.
Can I still wear my pretty pink sunglasses? They match my neighborhood.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
There is only one way to fix this. Send in more clowns...(Honk-Honk!!!)
It seems to be extremely hard for a lot of the gold stars.
Is this not state law? It will take a bill in Springfield to stop the gold braid patronage system.
Oh please he was an arrogant POS who thought he was above and better than everyone else. That’s probably why they ran him off.
Inspect THEEEESE nuuuts!!
One of the funniest things I ever heard a crackhead say was to an officer (who was older white woman) with this unnatural bright red purple hair about 25 years ago. The officer was this salty broad, barely sober most days and she was lobbing insults at the crackhead. The crackhead finally had enough and told her to go out and “get a real hair color. You look like a troll doll.” She wasn’t wrong.
Face tattoos should automatically disqualify you.
Hey Sean, grab a cold beer and enjoy retirement.
Its a joke. Anyone see Chief Ursettis in uniform with her hair down at Bud Billekin today . Rules for thee not for me
The command staff is a joke. Never so glaring than at Bud today. Herb Williams is in way over his head. Just a shame. Exempts over him are correcting his stupid decisions on the radio.
Go back to HQ Herb. You are not a front line boss!
You just described a nerd or dork.
Had a sergeant one time who was a complete fuck up. His famous saying was “ Do’s as I says not as I do’s”
Quarterpounder, as known in Area 2
Fat, drunk and illiterate is no way to go through life son
Good riddance
Which neighborhood?
And more cowbell.
Sean was a prince and one of the sharpest bosses I had the opportunity to work alongside, earned every rank legitimately
J. Edgar Hoover once saw an agent wearing a red vest who had pimples. He told a supervising agent to fire him, and discipline the man who hired him. Back then, the FBI practiced the "IBM Look". Starched white shirt, dark conservative tie, and a black or grey suit.
Why is Jcat bringing the food truck to his block party? So is this a thing now? I want it at mine too!
I'm pretty sure the hair is connected to her hat
oh boy is this great!
He dressed up as an elf on the shelf and sat in the locker room. What are you talking about.
Why it’s not against any general orders so what?
They are just going to keep hammering blue shirts… cancelled day off, 5am start time for some bullshit parade that doesn’t start till 10am and yup an inspector standing at the door to give you the final fuck you from this department to your face… best part is the asshole who’s supposed to be in alerting you doesn’t even know the difference between a goatee and beard and when called out on it backs down like the pussy he is
Y'all don't have your own blog ?
Herbie is very hands on boss! You may be a lazy cop who got schooled by him and got your feelings hurt
Great story
Edison Park
Diversity is our super power lol
Herb use to the the king of sleeping in 006 when he was an FTO. He’s a moron and was a VERY lazy copper. He was a subpar FTO who taught recruits the bare minimum. Somehow, he was brought to greatness of the gold star…(sarcasm)
That guy is a clown. Blowing through FOP cash like a degenerate at a casino. Get the FEDs in now.
Man, what a sad comment section. A bunch of haters from the district who don’t know jack shit about anything criticizing other coppers. Dude was working lolla and has to drive there wearing his vest and in a marked squad. God forbid he went to the gas station to pick up something before his 15 hour shift. Get a life all of you disgruntled losers in the chat.
Have you seen all the taliban beards on every other PO... bump cards mean you cant shave, but sure can trim it.
Half of patrol looks like crap in uniform... so dont start with her when most of this dept is "out of uniform"
Ignore 06:24:17. Doing all that surveillance to catch drug dealers probably saved a few lives by either getting potential victims or potential offenders of the street. Enjoy retirement.
Wasn't quarterman's clout a deputy she was sleeping with?
Joyce was not at all arrogant.
Jessani always loved his crocs
Gotta love the incompetence at the top out of uniform to the gang banger ppos with shags walking around banging in uniform. JOKE of a department.
NV is a great leader. He’ll get a gold star soon enough
JA is good people. Was great when she was In 015 too
He’s not wrong though
It never fails every time. Some old bird comes on here and whines about tattoos and beards like it’s still the 80’s. If you’re biggest gripe is ink on someone you need a hobby other than reading the blog.
I’ve worked with the “nerd” and would gladly work with the “nerd” again. One of the funniest people I ever met. Extremely smart and a great cop. He is an ideal leader/ role model for our officers.
I remember that fat female Lt from the traffic detail. She was a psychotic bitch.
Yep because you look like a slob and think rules aren't for you clown.
He should start putting ozempic in their water bottles.
I have a file on my phone of uniform infractions of the exempts. I was waiting to get nailed for one and then I pull out the file. No vest, no camera, hair violations, earrings, no duty belt, etc. Lead by example a$$holes The minute the merits started running this department is when everyone lost all respect. This department is a joke. Superintendent was promoted above his knowledge when he became SGT.
did you know about the beer tappers hidden in lockers in the firehouse?
Is her pronoun Princess Deputy Chief?
Prefer listening to the whining on this blog.
She wasn't the only one caught.
You commenters can't even keep your Seans apart. Joyce was not arrogant and not the elf.
Nothing like a face tat to advertise your poor decision making skills.
Call up and request it. You can also request horses, bouncy houses, fire trucks, etc.
oh, you must be the tac-tickle swat honcho who had his picture taken
I believe the two negative commentators are thinking Sean longeran.... Hopefully they are.
Say what you will. She is the most competent, smartest, ballsy chief that we have
Weren’t tier 2 officers eliminated recently. If so that will have a huge effect of our pensions
Pretty sure you are suppose to have a natural hair color as well.
10:36:26…. Herbie is anything but hands on. He constantly runs from the crowds at the beach and is scared of anyone that stands up to him. He barks, but when you bite, he hides his tail between his legs. He’s arrogant and micromanages to try and hide his incompetence. FUCK THAT GUY!!
When half this department loses weight and gets in shape I’ll criticize facial hair. Some of you motherfuckers can’t close your vest or walk up a flight of stairs but want to go on about appearance commanding respect.
Lead by example, knobhead. Are you really this dim witted?
The mechanistic organizational structure is created for a company that deals in mass production as it can benefit from economies of scale. It has a formal set of practices, procedures, rules and regulations with no deviation from the path.
In a mechanistic organizations, the employees are concerned with their task. They have set boundaries and remain within the frame working separately at their work stations. Everything is handed down the chain of command from the top to the next until it reaches the bottom
When you see Los Angeles command staff and New Yori City command staff you will see that they have it together and look sharp. A police department is a semi military organization . CPD certainly is not. The officer with a photo record of uniform and appearance violations of command staff is on the right track as from what I see it is a disgrace and speaking of that, many of the rank and file are also a shit show of sloppiness.
NV is a good person, leader & police officer!
Leave poor screech alone. He actually is a great cop, good dude, and cares for his guys. Worked with him way back.
Nothing worse than a slob of an old timer with tiny forearms and back tits whining about a fit younger guy with tattoos or facial hair. Their uniform may not be perfect but at least fits them and doesn’t follow every one of their love handles like these poor old timers bursting at the seams
Speak for your own district. 006 is fine! Young coppers come to work everyday. Doing the job correctly.
25 years and over 12 as a Sgt…not young. So I’ve done my time. I was pointing out the fact that they are coming down on shit like pants, shoes, smoking by the loading dock…and you have someone in a position of higher authority balking at the orders while we are the ones that will take the heat for not writing someone up for said shoes or pants. I don’t care about catching heat…I will not enforce any uniform crap that isn’t egregious until he comes down on his “command” staff.
Just made a comment like to to someone during a convo today a copper with a beard, tattoos, and wearing 5’11s can have a billion uniform infractions and still and usually does look more presentable than some fat slob wearing everything technically by the book. I’d say 90 percent of officers who technically have on a correct by the book uniform does not have a better “commands respect appearance” than an officer who isn’t by the book
Tattoos aren’t against the rules, and I have a bump card.
Times have changed, job has changed. Live with it.
No asswipe he isn’t part of the problem. You took this job and knew the standards you had to maintain. You can’t do something as simple as shave or wear what you are supposed to? You are retarded
Sean Loughran was the elf, not Sean Joyce. Try not to be as stupid as the people you’re calling stupid.
Chief Ursitti 🙄 another wasted salary.
Senora Ben is the biggest snake on his job. She’s a Backstabber.
Go to be Antionette. You’re an idiot.
I wonder if she can read.
Rules are for me. I played their games and did what I had to do so that I have a valid bump card that enabled me to give back the gas mask since I'll never have to wear it.
the gold braid pension system must end. no pension on any rank above Lt. and for the last rank you earned.
Say what you want about Senora. But she’s good people. She always had her troops backs. Would be out there with us in search warrants getting down n dirty. She been the same approachable person since she’s been promoted. The glasses point is valid, but not like she’s writing you up for uniform violations. She’s harmless and those who worked under her know this. A lot better than most gold star females on this department.
I’ll take the officer who has tattoos and a beard and is in shape over some fat fuck PO who won’t be able to help me when I need it…but hey at least he’s wearing a proper full uniform.
Were you guys on the same short yellow bus in grammar school?
Agreed
