FOP Prez a Two Man Race

Let's just derail this campaign right now before it even gets started:
  • Denis E. Doherty is one of three people running for president. Doherty is assigned to the 018th District, but detailed to Unit 543 - Detached Services
  • His assignment at Unit 543 is said to be one of Aldrecreature Burke's bodyguards, sitting at one of Burke's houses making sure no one breaks in...like the FBI trying to set up bugs.
Question:
  • Isn't this one of those D-3 spots we keep hearing about?
  • Do we really want someone that close to Burke and City Hall anywhere near the reins of leadership of our Fraternal Order?
  • Did Burke approve this move?

How the fuck is out current president any better? He has already proven that he is in the back pocket of the city.

If the choice is between one in office who has already proven to be in bed with the city and another who has clout and used it to get to a position, like any of us would do we had it. I pick the new guy!

SCC: if what you are saying is true, this officer must remove himself from his detail, go back to the D-unit or district. Currently this is a HUGH conflict of interest. No way would I vote for him or anyone in a same situation.

Off topic but rumor has it that top exempts are meeting after the DOC meetings. The topics have been juicy ones with top brass. It appears that some big names have already decided to put in their papers on 01 Feb 08. The biggest name circulating out there is Grau and also a disgruntled Williams. It appears as though Weis has already let it be known that he is bringing in two of his own for top spots. It looks like the 1st Deputy may also be an outsider and also Bureau of Patrol may also be filled as well.

Sorry boys but did you honestly think that J-Fed was going to let it be business as usual. The new orders being barked out by Williams appear to be a bit late.

There are going to be plenty of exempt rank members pulling the plug soon and you will see plenty of fresh faces running the show.

There once was a guy that was assigned to my old unit that was detailed to Unit 543. Who he "bodyguarded" doesn't matter b/c this issue isn't about that. The point I want to make is this: When his OT check came in it was mixed in with everyone elses OT check. Needless to say we were all shocked to see how much "UNRESTRICTED" D-3 OT really is. The OT check slightly over
$ 4,700 AFTER TAXES!

You would think he would have tried to justify the cash but when confronted by the troops he basically said it was a great spot with no supervision and no one ever checked or verified the OT for anyone. He went on to say his check was NOT by any means the largest either.

He was assigned two periods later and I know he's still there.

I guess I'm just jealous I don't have the spot but this is for sure- You don't get that money and freedom if your not SOMEBODY'S GUY. So if this dude is in Unit 543 I suspect City Hall would love for him to get the FOP President job. Payback would be a bitch-For all of us that is!

Officially, PO Doherty is assigned to 018, but detailed to 001. At least that's what Department computers say. Typical Department bullshit to hide the fact that untold numbers of officers are in play jobs that have nothing to do with patrol or district law enforcement. By the way, Doherty guards the door at the Committee on Finance at City Hall. Burke, Mr. Chairman, feigns ignorance of the man. Trust me, we don't need City Hall running the FOP. Donahue and his boys probably rankled Burke by attacking that high school educated twit from the Committee that is supposed to be paying our medical bills.

I might be wrong and forgive me if I am but I was always under the impression that only the Mayors guys got d3 pay. All you have to do is run him on clear and see what his payroll code is. I might do it and I might not but anyone in the know let us know.

Besides, vote on the issues and the person not where he works. It sounds much like recent elections, vote for him cause he's white / black, vote for him cause he's a democrat / republican.

Dennis Doherty seems to be a nice guy but make no mistake he is only out for Deninis Doherty. He has never had a bad assignment on this job and will do what it takes to safeguard and benefit him. A huge part of his career was on da Mayor's bodyguard detail. He was never, ever a working copper and never will be, just ask him. He is a Bridgeport guy who will sell us out for 30 pieces of silver. There is no question but that the Mayor will own him.

Don’t know this Doherty, but if he is in 543 then he is as heavy as whale shit! This coupled with the fact that he works for Burke makes the red flags go up for this non-clout P.O. and the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! It is no wonder he wanted to put his unit as the 18th District. Between Doherty and Donahue – Donahue is the least of two evils. Burke is one of the biggest crooks in this city and probably the state and I’m wondering if Doherty has picked up some of Burkes tricks. If so then the FOP membership would really be in trouble should he be elected.

On a side note, seen Burke at one of the Christmas parties, he looked like a two-bit hood in his suit and gold jewelry.

MY OPINION, if you don't like it, go cry to momma....Im not voting for ANY of the current FOP except for Sid Davis (he is the only one that I ever get on the phone or see on the street, seems genuine, and he tries hard...if only the rest of that crew actually cared!)....other than that, I'm voting them ALL out. I remember a few years ago, they said that they would be at our roll calls monthly. Hm. Just now they start showing up, handing out calenders and junk. Thanks, but too little too late. Ill throw the baby out with the bathwater, then pitch the tub too for good measure. Time for a fresh start. What have we gained with this group? Signed affidavits that still are not enforced? Compression was nice, but it takes more than that to offset healthcare losses... What have we lost? Healthcare, especially for retirees, pension in shambles, still working 6 days a week, still can't get days off, still are undermanned...if they spent less time playing golf and more time LISTENING TO THE MEMBERSHIP, WHICH THEY ONLY CAN REALLY DO AT ROLL CALL, then we would all be much better off....I want a union that is not afraid to go public...use the media for a change!!!

Doherty was on daleys detail for awhile, then he asked and was given the drivers position, he did not like it (crying), then he wanted to go back to "advance man", he was told no then left the detail because the baby did not get his way! He then went to narcotics made his own hours with overtime worked as a review officer was given a brand new take home crown vic, then did not like that was then put in 018 (At least on paper), got tired of that then back with burke WTF! He has more baggage than a train hobo! He also is very political, he even used his mother-in-law to buy himself and family a new home in garfield ride 6 years ago, then told everyone the area is "changing" sold the home at a 150K loss and moved back to bridgeport what a genius! Maybe the new laudromats he owns help support his kiss ass lifestyle! What a goof! Fop President no way! Seiser could win not dennis the suckass! Hope Jody looks into his past!

Well, is she does not get the 22nd District, then it is a loss to EVERYONE that works in 22, and more importantly, all of us who LIVE in 22.

You say you know stuff about her, and her rise to the rank of CPT. I say - Good for you. Do you think I, or for that matter, any of us who work for her care..? Let me ask you this - what boss does not owe a favor to SOMEBODY on this job. Name him or her, and then maybe you have something.

It is quite simple. She gets the job done, and the troops love her, and she treats EVERYONE who works for her the right way. EVERYONE.

I can give two shits how, or who, promoted her - all I care about is that she is a GREAT boss to work for, and I have worked for many in the past that can not compare to her.

Get over it.....you got nothing here, kid.

Dennis had many good jobs but is not a company man. Anyone to buck the system might be a good choice. Dennis knows how to do that. Robert Olson Sr. is a 37 year veteran who is NOT the Mayor's cousin. He worked in the 1st District and was highly respected amongst his peers prior to getting on Burke's Detail. Max Ortiz was a clean cut hard working tactical officer who worked in 021st District as did Anthony Skokol also working in the 021st District. No one currently on the mayor's detail was promoted through merit including Bob Olson jr. Although he did make detective. I work in 001 and have had dealings with all these guys.

The connection between Burke's Detail and the Mayor's detail is "Vince the Barber."

Off topic: what is with Sgt Jenny Manning and big sister Capt. Ruth Webster. They no longer know who to suck up to to further their careers. Word is Ruthie is afraid to have Ald Ginger make the call to Jody for the D/C spot in 022, because it might be the kiss of death. You two got further along then you both deserve with all your ass kissing you two did with every male exempt the showed any interest in your suck ass bullshit. Frank's gone. Jenny didn't get merit Lt. and Ruthie carries a lot of baggage that only a few people know about.

I don't know her personally other than to recognize who she is, but i can guarantee you one thing she is a class act... My old partner, who has since passed, had issues and she did every thing in her power to help him and his family. she didn't know him or the family before he got sick, but still went out of her way to help them. I have heard from others this is the norm with her, so if you were wronged in some way join the list of those wronged by others, but to hold grudges and vendettas makes us no better than some of those we complain about.

The FOP crew won the case on a motion for summary judgment. The Federal judge entered judgment in our favor but has yet to order the remedy. It will be soon (few months, maybe?). Please call the FOP if you have questions. Why the fuck to you ask this question on SCC?

--standard tests given every 18 months. Dont try and design a test that waters down test results such as pass/fail affirmative action agenda exams.
--test results returned to applicant with right or wrong answers within 7 days
--Merit points given as follows: for every year an officer has after 10 years, he/she shall be given a merit point added to their raw test score. After 15 years you get 2 points. After 20 you get 3 points. You get the idea. This will advance and promote officers with experience regardless of their sex or color.
--This idea should be sold to the alderman and sponsored by the Federal Monitor.

How on earth did you get this scoop? Pull it out of your shit filled ass (I mean brain)? You are a total genius. All that shit in the newsletter crapping on Burke's committee was B.S.? It was all done so Mark D. could get the Committee on Finance doorman to run against him? Damn. Donahue is brilliant. A master technician/politician. What next, Kreskin? The Earth is flat? The moon is made of cheese? Donohue's in bed with Daley? Same old shit. Please try something different, retard. The old lies are tired. How about a sex scandal or white slavery ring run by Donohue?

Dennis had many good jobs but is not a company man. Anyone to buck the system might be a good choice. Dennis knows how to do that. Robert Olson Sr. is a 37 year veteran who is NOT the Mayor's cousin. He worked in the 1st District and was highly respected amongst his peers prior to getting on Burke's Detail. Max Ortiz was a clean cut hard working tactical officer who worked in 021st District as did Anthony Skokol also working in the 021st District. No one currently on the mayor's detail was promoted through merit including Bob Olson jr. Although he did make detective. I work in 001 and have had dealings with all these guys.

Do you have any education whatsoever? You must write great reports. I feel sorry for the sergeants that have to sign them. Try to get to know how to spell your captain's name.
