Officers Honored
Heroism in the face of tragedy:
- Six Chicago police officers and detectives were honored Thursday for their response to a shooting at Swedish Hospital in April that killed Officer John Bartholomew and critically injured Officer Nelson Crespo.
Story and video at the link.
And in related news - the Fundraiser for Officer Crespo remains active and is a mere five-grand from the targeted amount:
- Police Officer Nelson Crespo has dedicated more than 20 years of his
life to protecting the people of Chicago. On April 25, Nelson survived a
tragic shooting and is now in the ICU, facing limited mobility in his
arms and no mobility in his legs. His commitment to public service and
his bravery have touched countless lives, and now he needs the support
of the community he has served so faithfully.
Nelson’s journey to recovery will be long and challenging. He will require extensive rehabilitation for the foreseeable future, and his home will need significant modifications to accommodate his new needs. These changes are essential to help him regain independence and comfort as he works toward healing. The financial burden of medical care, therapy, and home adjustments is overwhelming, and every contribution will make a meaningful difference.
The Memorial Foundation and City insurance cover the majority of expenses related to long-term disability care, but there are items that might need addressing immediately, like adapting the house to a purpose it wasn't specifically designed for. If you can, click the link and donate.

Someone needs to contact Tunnels to Towers with the house needs. They will gladly step in.
Donated for him. Gofundme can shove their tip request.
It is a very worthy cause.
Got to give praise for some DEI hires.
This incident was totally preventable. I feel terrible for all involved. It’s going to be tough both physically and mentally to come back from this incident. A big fuck you to JB Pritzker and the Black Caucas for putting this incident and others like it in motion.
Outstanding job Offices.
After reading this article and feeling somewhat sad, my blood boiled when I saw this. You just can't hate these politicians enough. I feel for the police. https://rumble.com/v7e5gym-chicago-grants-murderers-at-least-two-free-to-roam-days-weekly-where-theyre.html?mref=o877&mc=eu19d
They took care of Danny Golden a few months ago. Great charity
An FYI that I and maybe others don’t know about. GOFUNDME now has an automatic TIP added to your donation, 15-18%, on top of their 3% fee. You must change it manually yourself if you do NOT wish to tip this site.
Gofundme collects for too many shitty people & even shittier causes. I want to donate but I want ALL of the money to go to help this officer & family. I am pledging $100 (God I wish I could afford more) how do I do it.
Where were the Sgt’s in 020…
That day?????
Why was Sgt in 012 honored?
Great Job by all who responded!
She was the one that found the murderer
Understood. But a few extra bucks is worth it since Go Fund Me has created an easy way for us to do the right thing.
Everyone comes to help on a 10-1.
That's why we Must vote democrat...
I think the tip covers the cost of credit card processing
Live benefit also an option

Prayers for Officer Crespo… Lord please heal him.
