A New Rumor

Someone is claiming on assorted social media platforms that a new set of subpoenas arrived at the Hall just this week.

We've had a comment or two about it, some emails, screen shots, etc. Someone else claims they talked to a fed who said, "Yup, ongoing and expanding investigation, yadda yadda yadda."

Is it getting warm in here?

I hope so. You guys desperately need a real union. Sadly you have no idea what a real union can do for your protection and working conditions. Shut up and pay your dues went out with Hoffa. God bless and good luck,and if the stories are true that guy belongs in the slammer for abusing your trust.

All FBI investigations are ongoing until closed. Even when they stalk out years later, they’re still ongoing. This one, we re being told by a friend who is a TFO, is active. Which means it’s actively being pursued at the moment.

Name a “real union”? I’ve belonged to CCPA, Teamsters, and FOP in a suburban agency. Though nowhere near the scale of the FOP 7 described in this blog, all had issues so pick your poison.

I hope it’s true. We need a new group at FOP. I say NO to ILETSB, Cameras, adjustment to our training times and days, No CPD baseball hats, and many others. Those are the start of our anger.

Here’s another rumor.
The Powers that be at CPD and City Hall are going after Mike Barz for suing the department. You should have stayed gone Mikey because the truth is you should be in prison for the shit you’ve done over the years (and you know what we’re talking about under the Cline administration). You sold your soul for promotions and you have the audacity to sue the same system that your corruptly were part of? The city has bottomless pockets and they are going to do you my man.
Barz is truly an insane sociopath and it’s amazing that Garrido & Stoppa would even associate with this retard yet alone listen to his lies and stake what’s left of their reputations on the line for this lying POS. Hope you’re wearing diapers because the city will be damaging your sphincter.

Read actual complaint here:

cone head has lost many of his top advisors during the last year. writing on the wall, one term mayor that was elected with votes discovered after the polling places closed. machine politics. mayoral candidates should stress why the CTU endorsed mayor cone head . Big raises, city pays 7% of teachers pension contributions, schools that should be closed because of low enrollment remain open. Poor management by Mayor,CPS and school board.

I'm sure the $450 an hour attorney will tell us at the next meeting that it's just a follow up on a complaint filed. Why do we need this guy if there's no real investigation?

Rumor is you’ll have to work 29 years to get the medical. It won’t matter if you’re 50 or 60.

Maybe it’s true. Maybe it isn’t. Right now we’ve got social media posts, emails, screenshots, and somebody who knows somebody who talked to a fed. We’d laugh at a news story built on that. Keep digging. If there’s dirt, expose it. But until there’s something we can actually verify, it’s a rumor.

The medical at 29 years no matter your age is going to happen. Sgt and Lt’s contract is 4 1/2 years past due. They’ll get it in 6 months and the FOP will get it when the June 2027 contract expires. Only thing is you’ll give up 5 percent instead of the current 3.5 percent.

Birds of a feather flock together. Garrido never, ever did any police work in his career. I would chuckle when blowhard WIND talk show host Dan Proft would interview Garrido about Department policy and procedure as though he actually had a clue.

So, I should have to work more than 29 years if I am not 55 at the time and someone can work only 20 if they were hired at 35? This is to appease the company man who is worried that we can't get enough qualified applicants? Please spend the rest of your day pissing up a rope, moron.

The 7% is a strange situation and the CTU beat the city on that Years ago during pay negotiations the city agreed to that in lieu of pay increases. Was a good move by CTU because at that point the pay was so much less now that 7% of what $100,000 salary.

You’re right, I don’t have a clue. Are you happy? And I don’t know Catamzarra personally, but I do know that he may be re-elected until you die and that would drive someone like you crazy. And if someone else is elected, you may think you’ll be happy, but you’ll be miserable. Have a good weekend sir, I say that with a big smile.

Not true. All I ever gave a fuck about from day one was 1.) steady paycheck, 2.) pension, 3.) health insurance. I just turned 21 and knew I won the lotto.

They get full health insurance after 20 years. Most retire and go on to work full time jobs in the city. The last three years of their ot is also pensionable. There are different tiers in the NYPD. The officers that have 27 years or more are in a better tier with better benefits. You can't compare their benefits to ours. Different state, different city. I do know some officers who get a very nice pension check.

for the free insurance , require 29+a day at any age. Allow Officers to leave early. Hire new Officers at half the pay
