New CAPS Lieutenants

Shorting the watches once again:
  • Area 1 Lt Harmon 007;
    Area 2 Lt. Erroll Davis 004;
    Area 3 Lt. Donald Holmen 024;
    Area 4 Lt. Frances Camacho 010;
    Area 5 Lt. Steve Masters 025;
    CCG Lt. Kevin Hannigan 018
Future Command Staff? Wait and see

UPDATE: Someone pointed out this may be a paper shuffle for a net gain. Most of the CAPS Lieutenants were already wearing two hats (CAPS and Field). By moving six to the Areas, potentially nineteen other CAPS Lieutenants are returned to field duties.

Now can someone address the movement toward a day AND night CAPS Sergeant? That would short us twenty-five Sergeants so what's the point?

Area 4 Lt. Frances Camacho 010

What a goof this lady is. Once spoke ad nauseum for about 20 minutes literally at roll call on how we will all die a horrible death due to "avian flu" or bird flu if you will. Advised us to go to home depot and stock up on duct tape and 3m face masks or die a horrible death. Mind you this wasn't a roll call video or special training, just something she wanted to share for no apparent reason.

I didn't think they were shorting the watches. All the CAPS LT's from each district are going back to the watch. Now instead of 25 CAPS LT's there are 5. 20 either retiring or going back to the watch. I believe there is now a CAPS Sgt. for 2nd and 3rd Watch.

Since all 7 caps officers work for community policing and the cp sergeant, exactly WHO is the CAPS sergeant supposed to have working for him?

Let's see if patrol sends even MORE cops over to the CAPS office so this SECOND CAPS sergeant has someone to talk to.

Anyone take a gander at the poster promoting the Chicago Police Departments Racial Profiling Policy? It's in all the stations and upon closer inspection it speaks volumes about what is wrong with the Department, the City, and the Country. All those shown, the Departments best and brightest share one thing in common. Neither Cuello, Peterson, Sheilds, nor Jackson could succeed st doing what I, and many of you did sometime in your careers-get promoted by test score! Our leadership is an example of thirty years of affirmative action coupled with the more insidious merit promotions. All four of them stole another mans, or womans, promotion rightfully earned by hard work and perseverence. The quality of thier decisions and statements bespeaks their incompetence. We and our parents are the reason for this anytime we ever voted for Daley or a Democrats. Save yourself-Vote McCain!!!

I don't know where you work with only 7 Caps officers. In 009 we have at least 13-15. I'm not making that up. There are so many that they have to sit in other offices whenever more than 3 or 4 are there at any given time. Of course with their special hours and extra days off and such there's seldom too many of them hanging around. It would be nice to see some of that manpower put back to the shorthanded watches.

I too was there for the "death by bird flu" roll call. I do recall telling us that we had to buy certain sanitary wipes made by 3M but that the airlines had bought the whole supply from 3M...so we were shit outta luck! It was the strangest roll call I've ever been to. And it was so hard not to start just laughing out loud.

The position of "CAPS Lt." has much more to do with statistical reports for various required crime meetings. That includes managing the district "SOPs" and the stuff for the "DOC" now called "CAR". They only still do the SOP stuff because its required for the federal money they still get. Cline basically set up the "DOC" with the opposite philosophy of CAPS (Cops on dots vs. dealing with chronic problems). Now they call it "CAR". The amount of statistics generated by all of this is astounding due to technology. The CAPS lt. never really had that much to do with regular Neighborhood Relations type activities. His primary function was to make sure his D/C was prepared for any and all "Gotcha" calls from HQ. They now have a 3rd Watch CAPS Sgt. to attend all the nighttime mtngs and work on the Beat Plans, freeing the other Sgts up. The day CAPS Sgt. will continue to do the traditional N/R stuff with beefers, Pols, Businessmen.

You are correct.

I've never publicly insulted anyone before, but I feel the need to say something about Camacho. She is the most vengeful, erratic and complaint-filing person I have ever encountered. She will file any grievance, lawsuit, anything to get where she thinks she deserves to go. I've got an idea where she can go...It is demoralizing to see people like that get ahead. But eventually the truth comes out.

Lt. Frances Camacho is a lot of things, most of them have been mentioned in this thread, but one thing she is not is a merit Lieutenant. She was a straight up number 55 on the list. I saw the letter when we were in Lieutenant's school. Now, could she have been given a heads up and/or a few "tips" in preparation for the exam? Sure, maybe, she was a HQ and Academy hider and got to know the gold stars. Did she get some assistance thru HDO? Sure, maybe, she is Puerto Rican. But either way, I know for a fact that she is not a "merit" Lieutenant as we know it. And I do not know if she was a merit Sergeant or was promoted in rank order off the Sergeant's list because I did not know her then.

Mark Harmon may have made rank legit., but when you study "the" test and not for the test. Oh well? Ask Mark about his family connects? Do you honestly think "pretty boy" didn't have some
juice to get out of partorl? and why do you think he took the police test in the first palce? you don't think he stems from a family of politicians and lawyers?

Holy shit, this Fran Camacho stuff is new to me. I've been hurt and off the job for a long time. SCC has been a real eye-opener since I was made aware of it these past few months.

I worked with Fran fairly often when I was a new recruit asssigned to 017, way back when. Got my first DUI arrest, first CR number for brutality, and worked the wagon for the first time, all with Fran. And we had a blast.

But this isn't the first time someone got promoted and turned into a complete asswipe. What the fuck do they put in the koolaid when you get promoted?

Say it ain't so, Frannie.

The problem with the kool aid is that it is so cold that it kills all the brain cells that contain common sense/common decency and she has been guzzling it down on the road to her gold star.

I'm the type of person to give someone a chance even when everyone says a person is a total softball, asshole, etc. but she definitely lives up and surpasses her reputation as a real b*tch.

Whoever wrote this is dead on, especially about selling you out for her gain:

Fran Camacho = HDO lackey.
Fran Camacho = " I wrote every General Order," yet knows nothing about being a PO.
Fran Camacho = egotistical idiot.
Fran Camacho = will throw you under a bus
Fran Camacho = wacko
Fran Camacho = EVIL

I'm sure she will be promoted again to help with the morale issue plaguing this department.

I am a citizen who just started reading this blog a couple weeks ago.

I don't understand what's wrong with using merit in promoting people, be it the police force or any private sector business.

Employees should be raised to management positions based on merit.

In your world it means someone did something to deserve their reward but in our world-it means political connection-romance to advance connection or multigenerational clout/police royalty connection and is blatantly unfair to those without those connections or willing to 'work' for them.

Please explain how some here know "for a fact" that certain people were off the list vs. merit? Sounds like the feedback is from those in question perhaps? You are what you are, or you is what you is!

Remember when they first came out with the Automated Directives on I-Clear and when you used their "Search" you couldn't find a f---ing thing? Absolutely useless. Guess who helped design it? Non other than the great and heralded Fran Camacho. Another shining example of how we keep 'meritoriously" promoting people that should be slinging hambugers. HDO, Than you so f-ing much. Why don't you hire them for your self and enjoy the laughs.

10/23/2008 03:58:00 PM

I have to correct you with the truth. I am no fan of Camacho, but I was there when she tried telling the civilian data systems idiots about ALL the flaws, BEFORE the rollout of automated directives.

She gave it to them good in the Camacho style, but they blew her off and didn't care because Babs McDonald and Hooberwoman were going to make it happen regardless of the flaws. Essentially, they looked at it as a work in progress, but shame on Hooberwoman, he should have known better, but Babs and the civilians had no idea or didn't care as to the importance to the sworn culture of accuracy and access to the directives. Camacho did try, in her over the top caustic manner, but she did try. I saw it.

Hey ease up on Camacho. She is a very intelligent boss. Just ask her she wrote the book on being a commander. She'll tell you all about it.

If you gotta constantly tell people how smart you are you might not be that smart dumbass! Good riddence for now.

is steve masters related to mike masters? If so that is no different than Ike Carothers promoting his brother to Lt this shitty is so fucking corrupt

------------------------------
If Lt. Masters was related to Mike Masters or had any kind of clout, do you think that when he made Lt. (on his own test score) that he would have been sent to the 007th dist. on midnights for 3 years?

I was in the last Lieutenant's class and all of the merits were from (GASP!)units! Most if not all were (sit down now) on their second or third merit promotion.

No clown, it was a class of 20 therefore six were merit and fourteen were made on score. I was just trying to illustrate the fact that 1)Hannigan was not made by merit 2) The double and triple dipping merit system is not fair.
Did some of those who made it on score have help? Probably.
I did not... but I guess you are gonna have to take my word on that.

"She made all her ranks on her own without merit."

Don;'t know about lt but I believe sergeant rank was a gift... she was a merit sergeant because she made a good contact with a judge when she (and this is true-her initals were at the end of the order) wrote the court orders.

Actually, Mark's lineage goes back through several US Presidents. George Washington was his great, great, great, great uncle. That is his clout.

Who the fuck is Robert Harmon? You are a clown and a fucking disgrace. Since you don't have a cogent thought in your head, you should probably turn your star and gun in before you injure yourself.

sorry you couldn't follow the rules. no names unless published in a paper or of high enough rank that they are considered public figures. initials would have been fine and would have served your purpose.
