Don't Be Dumb

In this day and age of "accountability," don't be stupid:

  • Two former suburban police officers have been charged with misusing their authority to conduct unauthorized Illinois license plate searches, the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office announced Monday.

    According to a news release, a DuPage County grand jury on Sept. 29 returned a 21-count indictment against former Itasca police officer Marisa Ciccola, 30, and a two-count indictment against former West Chicago police officer Gerardo Solis, 39.

    The grand jury alleged 13 counts of official misconduct, a Class 3 felony, and eight counts of computer tampering, a Class B misdemeanor, against Ciccola and one count each of official misconduct and computer tampering against Solis.

Remember that exempt who was stalking some woman, running her plate and phoning her after being told to knock it off? Even a demotion back to lieutenant didn't stop his behavior. Now someone sought and got a twenty-one count indictment (thirteen of those being felonies) against a single former officer.

Even if you can't see it, assume everything is being tracked, observed and recorded - you'll stay out of most trouble that way.

Saw some guy got indicted for doing false blue cards in another city. I know a few guys who would run plates, get one with an attached DL and do a "traffic stop" to get a blue card. Needed 15 blue cards to go home. I guess they're going to get indicted once AI combs through the data, it will happen one day, plan now for your errors in the past.

Hey, run this license plate for me, wait a minute the guy just cut me off in traffic. Wait till I get to work. I’m gonna find out who this guy is and where he’s going. Oh no, no more that boys and girls back in the day, things are different. Now you will be charged with a felony. Lose your pension lose your family and very possibly go to prison in this lawless Democratic world now Democrats were with the police in prison and they want the criminals on the streets simple as that! Like the title of this article, don’t be stupid no more using law-enforcement databases for anything just make sure you can cover your own ass if you do run license plates doing your job because now you can’t do your job apparently. It only takes a few idiots to ruin a good job.

Had a sgt in 011, who ran a plate for her felon husband who got into a road rage incident. He used that info to threaten and harass that person, she got a suspension. Then was made the CO of the medical section. Different rules for different colors.

No sympathy from me. Thirty years or so ago when computers were becoming a thing in vehicles we were warned about this type of bs. Long before that, as a
kid I often heard don't tell on yourself, no pictures & nothing in writing.
Thinking you are smarter than the system is beyond stuuupid!

How could any retired officer forget this guy. What a goof! Leaves his wife and kids to marry the Greek chick who also was a former playboy bunny and magazine fold out only to get divorced a year later.
Then he repeats his bad behavior by stalking a lady who was ticketed for a minor traffic violation.
I could go on and on about this guy, but back in my day he was hidden, not fired as he should have been.

And a ghetto rat can put a loaded gun to your head rob you of your possessions then shoot you causing permanent physical damage and then ba charged with maybe 2 -3 charges and be found not guilty because he had a bad childhood and the nasty police arrested him because he is a poor Black man.

soooo....a nice guy stalking an uninterested woman, following and phoning her after running her plate through the system? even after being told to knock it off on at least two occasions? THAT is your definition of a good boss? tell us you're a moron without telling us you're a moron.

we never claimed to be "super police," but we were good cops who just happened to be aware of who was actually sitting in judgement of Officers, and it wasn't Jesus (we're agnostic at best).

You probably didn’t hear about the flight attendant that moved out of the city because that “great boss” was stalking her after going out with her a couple times………… she lived in the old 23rd district in the north end…….. she never beefed but told the copper who introduced her to the “great boss” that he was a bit freaky and had to move because he would leave her alone …. I could give more details but this is a family site…….

Misuse of LEADS is a felony by law so those charges can/should stick. Misuse of flock is a policy violation how some states attorneys are calling it official misconduct is beyond me. Been retired awhile so maybe flock was given its own carve out in law but i couldn't find it anywhere. So I see the flock misusers getting slaps on wrist but the leads people well they get what they get.....it was in the training that its a felony to misuse the system.

I worked with that boss when he made sgt. Then lt. He was an incredibly nice guy and looked out for the troops. However, he couldn't keep it in his pants. No control when the ladies were involved.

There is more to the story to put running a few plates on the radar. Stalking complaint? Domestic violence? I don't know but you should know that you can only use the LEADS system for official business. Every plate and name you run is logged. If you run a special plate i.e. to a U.C. car the "owner" of that plate may receive notification and you may have to explain why you were running that plate.

I was an fto, and routinely told a fng not to pull over attractive girls without pc, and to call in the stop. Sure enough, the next day I found him on a stop, with a cute blondie. Didn't call it in. He was pacing at her window sounding like Porky Pig asking for her number. Idiot.

And there's an episode of Barney Miller that deals with this very thing. Internal affair Lt. Scanlon "drops in" again and again on a wealthy complainant. "You're promoting her socially, and you're buying yourself a boatload of trouble Scanlon."

Maybe he was a great boss, but dude had some serious fucking problems with the women!
Stalked the cop out to Vegas, got escorted to the return flight by LVPD, picked up at O’Hare and escorted to 11th & State, dumped to Lt, and the dumbass CONTINUES his bullshit with a phone number from a traffic accident report…
I think he was pushing an elotes cart for a year or two.
