Mc Govern has been a suck ass since patrol.
Nobody Cares
These rumors are killing me. Yesterday a rumor said Duignan and today Anderson for 022. We want Neither here please. We can’t go from people like Kinnane and Joyce to someone like Anderson or Duignan who have been hiding in the academy and inside spots for years. Hopefully these are exactly that… rumors.
Heard Starks is finally being dumped. Her tenure is over. Hope she does us all a favor and pushes the button.
Well I guess if you're banged the former Superintendents son, you still got clout. Interesting . Merit Detective, merit Sergeant, cheating study group to make Lieutenant and now commander. You are a pig
Good for A/3, they were due for a decent commander. Now do A/1.
Speaking of changes, what is going on with the dispatchers at the OEMC? Has anyone been fired? Someone asked this question in a previous discussion, “does the discharged loan have to be reported as income?” The answer is yes (for the majority of the dispatchers and everyone else who fraudulently obtained the loan or improperly used the loan proceeds). Mr. Tax Man, please set up shop at the Chicago OEMC to get your numbers, you will earn a promotion, rise through the ranks, and make a name for yourself.
Welcome to 022, where morale is about to be just like 006. This department is clueless.
Who the hell are these people? Asking for a friend.
Good luck 022!!!
Mannion is a yes man.
Texas imposing tax on New Yorkers moving to Texas.
They don't want no more liberals, screwing up their state.. .
Conehead offers bonuses.......
Neckerman - Mannion and McGovern all work their buts off for this Dept! If they want the bump they deserve it! However, Mannion turned it down before.
Lt. M. Vanek to 1st Deputy, you heard it here first. His leadership will bring the needed change and morale boost to this department.
Congrats to Mannion
Anderson? Is that the one that was dating clines son back in the day?
Fake news. He's not going to Area 3
McGovern has been on medical for almost a year! Stop the bs
Heard oemc has dispatchers that need to be random drug tested.
Who cares about oemc
King of the bootlickers .....
MV used to work from home when he was part of the glorious Car Jacking Unit and now his wife pulls the same scam when her BF Heiny is too hungover to get to work....
She left. Was a former commander of 014. Clueless but had her ass kissers like the female Sgt whose husband claim to fame is being Heins drinking buddy. Think he works in 024 now.
Who is Rhonda Anderson??? Never heard of her.
No promotions have been made or announced. A few of these sound reasonable… others seem completely made up. I’m gonna say fake but I did hear these exact names as a rumor at the end of last week.. so who knows, maybe true? Maybe not? Keep this under rumors and not promotions because it changes every day.
How about the entire Det Div Command staff
Get a life because he’s occupying your mind looser!
She has a nickname on the south side
Mighty mouse
How about disband homan SQ , bye bye narc , Gang Inv , asset , rub N tug vice , we can free up a few Lts , sgts and , POs , we also don’t need a different carjacking team when each detective area has 1-3 teams , that does nothing besides eat at Blossom in 016 .
Hahahahahahahaah
Fake. They aren’t even done interviewing yet.
Good. This will quiet the “they won’t promote whites anymore” crowd.
come on man, let's keep Kinnane . 22 needs working Command staff, not house mice
what's dating Phil's son have to do with it??
Mannion may know how to handle a protest or a big event… but is an arrogant asshole too
The Dugans bartender? She was hot!
Berlage is not getting CIRT.
JCAT’s ball rubbers let him off the hook….FOP is a complete joke. Hopefully the FBI removes the entire board and starts fresh with people that care about the members instead of lining their pockets with money.
McGovern’s butt must sure be sore. He’s been working that butt with the bosses since he got on the job. Total ass kisser. Doesn’t know shit about the D-unit. Though he was assigned there he never worked a case that meant a damn thing and suspended almost every case. Very sad where this job is going, very sad.
SEISER will be his driver
Kind of O.T. : when is that miserable prick Lt K.R. from 022 gonna retire? That guy has been a world class jag bag since at least ‘95.
Anyone hear about the mass dumping from the court section? Guess everyone’s favorite court sergeant at 26th street who loves to mess with officers as they check in was sent packing as well. Only a rumor from what I have been told.
Phony reformer Cong. Jesus “Chuy” Garcia orchestrated his decision not to run to make it all but impossible to have his handpicked successor challenged.
The 4th District will not be allowed a choice, and there’s little to no democracy on display as party bosses and incumbents have picked his successor.
Garcia is the very definition of mediocrity with a career remarkable for its lack of accomplishments, other than his obsession with attacking Israel. The only thing distinguishing him from the “The Squad” is his mustache. It’s certainly not his politics or advocacy.
Having done nothing to address the issues of lack of investment, high crime and lack of quality schools for residents of Illinois’ 4th Congressional District, they will continue to be taken advantage of without a truly independent voice at a critical moment.
hey chucy have your gangbanger son run he will fit right in the 4th distict
Mannion is smart and actually cares about people. So unpromotable.
I heard Anderson will get the DROP program implemented by July 2026. Is there any word on this?
CCG O’Connor
A3 Christensen
A3 Det. Cirone
022 Dunigan
001 Mannion
CIRT Milmine
004 Irwin
FYI. These are not real.
Rodney Hill was great for A/3. He was never there and if he did show up he left after a few hours. LT.s ran the show and it worked much better.
Rhonda is a great boss. No one who works for her disagrees.
Great boss!
I hope this was a weak attempt at irony.
Considine is getting Area 1 when Watson gets promoted.
Manion is a good guy. Smart. Being #2 in 001 keeps him out of the headlines
Bring back Kellam!
I concur
Congrats J McGovern.
Only in the Chicago FOP can you use take other peoples money, use FOP credit cards for your own personal use, spend like a drunken sailor, avoid paying taxes and be found NOT GUILTY by your buddies. I as a dues paying member hope this entire board gets indicted and goes to the federal Penitentiary. Fuck you guys!
I agree, who the fuck cares..no matter what they do this Dept is fucked!
Starks dumped to Lt in 007. Hawkins to Area 4
yeah....all solid guys who scored well on every test because they studied hard and are really smart.....everyone on here bitches and moans about merit, and these aren't that at all...solid bosses....we could do a lot worse that's for sure
ok,,thanks Lt V
Nope, no one is changing that, it will take many years and more than just one move
Rhonda A. worked as a bartender at Dugan’s on Halsted before she joined CPD. She was also hidden by Papa Cline while she worked on the Run to Remember and other Police Memorial matters. She’s now dating newly minted Will Riga. That’s my CPD history lesson for today.
Zohran for Superintendent
…this place needs Leadership!
Anderson used to sleep in the parking lot of 007, 1st Watch as a newly minted Sgt.
R.A. who has hijacked Ella French’s Blue Light to help her career. Great choice Larry.
Rhonda has no people skills and even less management skills. Has she ever managed an operational unit with more than a handful of sycophants? I can’t believe Larry or Dana O’Malley would be fooled by this self serving charlatan.
Who cares she’s a great boss
I remember when Rhonda was a bartender at Dugan’s . Useless !
Watson is not fit to supervising anything or anyone.
She’s sweet, leave her alone
Why don’t you start your own oemc dispatcher blog…no one cares here about oemc drama
A lot of people should be fired from oemc.
Dumped? They go down to LT for retirement
She sits in a hidden office at the academy
Finally someone called out the one moving the needle on this department. Dana O’Malley and Hein call the shots, Larry autopens the decisions.
Considine would have to show up to work so that aint happening
Papa cline promoted her by merit 2X
This is accurate
Signed Kate ‘the run you over crying bus driver Sanchez. Did you know pension payments are made only once a month ???
Does Dugan's have the same owner ?
Hawkins is a tool. Ask all the robbery task force guys tho and they alllllll are sucking him off
I wonder why he decided not to run for office again? Does it have something to do with his gang banging son?

Peeeeeee Weeeeee Herman!!! Weasel of a guy. 3 time merit hack, afraid of the street, just like his wife. The "girls" at kentin and Monroe miss you!
Good, guy is a tool
Anderson was part of the "special" Patty Casey lieutenant's test study group, much like the Schnoors, the Dillon sisters, and that stroke Duckhorn. All had the answers to the test.
Speak for YOURSELF !!
If you really didn’t care then why did click on the story ?
Agreed.
He pretends to be a “good boss”, but he nothing more than a suck ass. He’s a snake too so stay clear of him.
Area 1 should’ve been first in the list.
With all of the legal troubles A/1 Watson is involved in, why on earth is she in charge of anyone?
McGovern doesn’t know sh-t about the D-Unit, he’s just an ass kisser.
Dana O’Malley hasn’t given the Superintendent any sound advice since she was named Chief of Staff.
We all did...
Reynolds is an asshole always has been
Considine? Ask him for advice on one of your cases and see what he says. Never a detective, merit sgt and has no idea what he’s doing. He’s never at work either.
JC to Area one is hilarious. I would take the lady answering the phone on 2nd watch over him.
Someone's bitter that they never put in the work to get there.
BK is a coward who would only come down on M2 officers. Dime a dozen supervisor. Now if you want your white shirt to impress me then do your job across the board. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel in 022. Pussy
The Superintendent is out of touch, well at he pretends to be out of touch with what goes on in districts and units.
Wowsers
You’ll care about OEMC if you’re screaming for help and no help is coming because they’re short handed or some dispatcher is in mid nod off.
No one cares.
The entire court section can easily be civilians. Wastes manpower.
Affirmative actions finest! DEI hire from Class 90-3. Sweet and inoffensive for sure but she never, ever passed a promotional test high enough for a rank order promotion.
Sorry to read this. Knew him in 013 and while I never saw him kick down a door he seemed like a decent guy back then. And his last name was anglicized-or “Irishicized” although he’s not Irish!
So did I-for an hour or so-especially after being asked to do an extra four or five hours on the end because there was only one other sergeant on midnights.
You don’t need to know sh-t about the D-Unit as a commander. Rodney didn’t. Let the LTs run the floor, and the Sgts run their teams.
The bosses in Area One are an embarrassment.
FU mark
You mean just like the Mauer, Cline Volgaris etc etc study groups. This is how Chicago works pal. Get used to it or get out. Nothing legit here.
Bring back Kellam? Nah.
Bring back Sgt Dowling!
You’re all dopes
Lt mark Kochan is gonna be 022 commander. And he will be a good one !!!!!
Now that stark's wife has been demoted, get rid of her sister. Sharon Price, merit sgt, and truly one of the dumbest most useless pieces of crap. Couldn't even do the paper work for a battery arrest on a juvenile. Had no clue. I know merit people are mostly dei jokes. But she is above and beyond, her work history is nonexistent, she has zero complimentary history, and the most telling thing that demonstrates her complete lack of ever having done police work, zero CRs. She failed everything when she was a recruit, but bro in law took care of it all for her, the old Eddie Johnsons son treatment.
Another police groupie who became the police. Bosses are dummies for encouraging this.
Commander Rodney Hill didn’t know shit. He allowed the lieutenants to run things while he golfed. He was promoted due to DEI associations.
Shhh, you’re not supposed to know that. That’s a well kept secret.
She did a lot of cover ups during her time in the BIA. She can’t be touched. Sorry guys you’re stuck with your commander.
Which Lt. Schoor? Is it the one that’s over in confidential that is approving all of the Ex-Cleared Close Homicide cases that were pended on deceased individuals?
Commander Watson is a total embarrassment. She thinks being a commander means finding file cabinet space for new detectives. She comes out on the floor and makes seasoned detectives give up their file cabinet space for new detectives, instead of making them wait until one becomes available. She’s so invested in it. You should see her on her knees checking file cabinets. This is one of the highlights of her day, the other highlights is being phony. She buys pizza and doughnuts, host appreciation parties and then backstabs everyone.
Considine aka cabbage brain. Big head full of cabbage.
Commander Rodney H. didn’t know shit. He was another bullshitter that chased skirts.
R.A. is a phoney, a liar and kiss ass. Let's everyone constantly know that her and Snelling are best buds along with Phil Cline. She uses people to get what she wants and will stab you in the back no sooner than you are no use to her. Making her a Commander would rank up there as one of the worst promotional decisions ever made. Wouldn't surprise anyone though given the department's past promotional picks.
JC another merit retard who was given the LT test answers.
I once got into an argument with him after he told me I had to wait 30 minutes before punching out because the general order said so. I told him he was wrong and no GO require this. He refused to take my slip and I started dialing the court section to have them punch me out over the phone. I told him I was just going to turn my slip in at the unit. Big argument resulted and he swiped at my slip and said “just give me the fucking thing”. I told him I didn’t trust him to turn it in.i walked out with my slip and turned it in without any problem at all. The guy is a total asshole
When she made Detective, probably less than 2 weeks in I had a job with her that was going to run in to OT. It was Valentine’s Day so she somehow wriggled out of the job. Spent almost no time doing detective work but doing “work” for CPMF.
Nobody could serve them like Rita!
Just curious and asking an honest question. Do we like anyone on this job as a potential boss? Every time a name comes up in the rumors, the ensuing comments are that they suck. So who would be a good boss? What are the qualifications? What disqualifies a person from being a good boss in this blogs readers eyes? If merit, they suck. If from a unit, they suck. Worked even a day inside, they suck. Dated another copper, whore and also they suck. Works hard in the position they are in, kiss ass and also suck. Hell, even if you made it by score, sucks again. So what is it then? Is there anyone that this blog would have 85-95 percent good comments about? The truth is some people on this job played the game by making connections, working in different units, went above and beyond even in an inside spot, screwed the right person, or tested well. But they played the game and got promoted while the rest of us come to this site and bitch and moan.
Had him in 012 as a Sgt. And he’s actually not a bad guy. Shocking the Dept bats 10 for 1,000
You’ll care?? Oemc should be for police on disability and fire on disability. They know the job, deserve a spot like that.
Her juice is gone.
Rodneys over at CTA now messing that up.
I’ve never met a more miserable group of people than Chicago Police Officers. Coppers will be given 50% off of a meal at a restaurant and bitch that it wasn’t free. Give ‘em a free meal at a restaurant and they’ll bitch that the food sucks.
The good bosses are being pushed out
big time medical abuser like the rest of those shiny shoe merit hacks comes off the medical to make Lt then back on the medical comes off to make cmdr what a fucking joke pos
great inspection in 2 today which is all merit bosses and the king of the hill never passed a test high enough to get promoted but has enjoyed 1k in medical days. He insisted on everyone getting dressed for inspection and his fraternity goof sgt pal discharges his weapon - hello anyone see barney cause he fired his gun off again! no reported injuries except a bench
Given your little speech… RA is still an awful choice because every single thing above you stated, she did. So there’s that. Not saying you are directing your comment at her, but pretty sure you are. If you defend her, then you don’t know her…. You just think you do.
Everyone hates Vanek. Just wanna make sure that’s established. And I’m referring to the male Vanek.
Where did McGovern work in patrol out of the academy?
Cirone is a political hack. Lucky to still be on the job.
Nice punishment for Milmine getting an easier gig. He should thank the thieves. That's CPD... the connected mess up and get a better gig. He's still awesome to work for but he hopefully won't be as trusting of the ass-kissers..
Most white shirts in the d unit were never detectives. Old story.
Those who say that Stark's wife was "demoted" don't know that gold stars return to last rank before retiring for financial reasons. Get in the know. She is retiring.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s called hitting the hole. Goof
Ah, struck a nerve I see. If you think it's all about "playing the game well" then you'll truly never understand. While some might get lucky on a score, or are gifted with a merit spot or have even been a swell inside person their whole career....the majority of the people name's you see on the blog repeated time and time again are mentioned for a reason. Sure you'll get an occasional comment or two about someone, but everyone knows when you see those same people's names over and over so spare us your fake anger about calling people out. Plenty of times there have been great comments about officers as picks for positions that are deserved, and earned....unfortunately to few and far between. Here's an honest question for you.....do you truly think this Department is going in the right direction? Here's my answer, no! Now why do you think that is?
Just curious and asking an honest question
——
To answer your question, there were white shirts past and present, that were promoted by merit and score that have never made the blog. It seems as though the posters blog more about the Pattie Casey study group hacks, the Eric Carter DEI losers, the Lieutenant test cheating scandal hacks and the Phil Cline “good ole boy” hacks.
She has one left, Deputy Chief Traci Walker. She’s kissing up to Tim Moore, now that’s he’s the Chief of BIA.
O’Malley the one that was hired by the department after the private law firm that she worked for helped to highlight the LaQuan McDonald alleged “cover-up.” She came on as part of the reform, well that what she said when she interviewed.
James McGovern is a medical abuser.
This is true. While she "worked" the CPMF for Cline her hours were 10:30-Noon. She swop into the Academy, float into the ft office for 10 minutes (to show her face), up to the classroom on the second floor, lock the door and do who knows what for 90 minutes or so. Leave, lock the door and "head to lunch." Never to be seen again for the rest of the day. Mind you this was not every day. Who knows what she did the rest of the time.
She is retiring. She said not till next November. She needs too. Demotion is the only way she will leave. Hope it’s true.
Everyone hates Hawkins, and I’m referring to the Lt Hawkins
Well said you are damned if you do damned if you don’t.
She hit the hole all right.
They are the commanders of 006, 007, 011, tac LTs of 002, 003, 006, 007, 022….
Which one!?
people tend to speak about more current topics. not too many people are left from the previous scandals.
McGovern’s daddy had him in 12, where he was placed on a 06 car. He couldn’t find a burglary if he was introduced face to face. We had to find the burglar for him. I remember that day how about you John.
Considine was in Patty Casey Cheater group for Lt. a potato has more brains than this clown. Never worked in 12 always hiding and softer than puppy shit in the head. Miraculously he scored high enough, placing him in the first class with fellow genius sisters Dillion & husband, Schnores, and super brain K. Fresnel.
lol..thanks for your input Mark but would the ppl in 004 feel the same - I doubt it, You ruined a watch and we all know it.
You're sh!tting me. That Rhonda (Dugan's) is on the job, and a commander?!
KS is still around…..never worked a day in her life
She’s a LT in 022. Not a Commander.
Kellam…..no thank you. Probably haven’t met a more arrogant asshole on this job. And Rhonda….please don’t do that to 22. Remember her from midnights in 9, absolute bitch.
Probably better you don’t hear of her. Total bitch.
Starks was NOT demoted. She was at the area today. She isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. She’s already said she’s gonna stick around at least another year
My God (Rhonda). No wonder the job is a joke.
Drop is dead, now retire and find something constructive to do
Will Rhonda real in the medical abusing husband and wife duo?
Congrats J McGovern.
Signed your fellow kiss ass J. Considine
Labbe is the new Cmdr of Area 3.
The real answer is merit has messed up the department by promoting sons of supervisors or the commanders secretary (side piece). Promotional test are a joke with a passing score of 38% because they will curve the final score to pass based on a bosses kid score who should not be in command bcus he’s dumb but has received 1, 2, or 3 bites of the merit apple. So it’s clearly a bias system and should have rules & restrictions. Just remember officers when it comes down it’s just a job that pays the bills all you are required to do is answer your calls & back each other up. That’s it. PS.. go get numbers for a Lt or commander and see when you step into shit will they be at your hearing with the police board. They will act like you are Christ and deny they ever knew you or asked you for activity. 🙏
Who?
McGovern should studied hard on the
detective’s test if he wanted to lead detectives.
As someone from 004 I will work for him any day. How was he was one of few supervisors that didn’t reach the top on overtime? Back stabbing friends, I tell you huh Milmine.
When is Wallace leave Homan Square? Narcotics and Gangs have become extremely watered down.
