Bye-Bye Ike!

  • Federal authorities later Thursday plan to announce charges against Ald. Ike Carothers (29th), the chairman of the City Council's police and fire committee.

    They issued an alert Thursday indicating that new charges are expected in a public corruption case involving an FBI investigation.

    Federal prosecutors and the FBI will hold a 2 p.m. news conference.

    Also, a U.S. Attorney’s spokesman said a separate, unrelated case involving racketeering activity, armed robberies, arson and illegal gambling will also be unsealed.
So is this second indictment for Ike, too? Or is there a parallel Outift case working its way through the system?

UPDATE: The second indictment is a suburban Outfit case.

UPDATE: Interesting - Ike's dad was an aldercreature indicted for Extortion. Guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

UPDATE: Seeing as how Ike allegedly solicited bribes and took gifts in exchange for votes, we think it's fair to ask how much he charged his brother for three separate promotions.

The news conference starts in a few minutes. Do you want to start a pool and predict the criminal charges?

Today in the 005th district many vechicles responded to a call of a person with a gun. One of the 1st gen Tahoes also showed up, it's front lightbar dangling off to the rear the vehicle, held in place only by the power cord. Upon further investigation, it seems there were 5 screw holes drilled on both sides to hold the lightbar in place, but only 1 small screw was used for each side. Great mechanics, eh?

Weis: ROBBER 'REPREHENSIBLE' FOR MOVING OFFICER
May 28, 2009 3:46 PM
It's "reprehensible" that someone would move an injured Chicago police officer to rob him as he lay unconscious following a crash, possibly injuring him further, Chicago Police Supt. Jody Weis said today.

"For someone to take advantage of someone's injury and be able to steal their gun and rob them and move them around in a state of serious condition is appalling," THE MAYOR told reporters.

She was so sub-par on a professional level, no ideas, ill-spoken, bad attitude I kept thinking - who IS this person and how did she get hired and why she is in charge of anything? Not only was she clueless, she was completely condescending. Afterward I asked someone and the response was, " That's Ike's sister " with a big roll of the eyes. Man if that is an example of the clout hires you have to deal with...you have my sympathy. Is she still working for CAPS?

Actually, SCC, why don't you post the K-9 list????? That other poster brings up a good point. Let us have a look at it (please and thank you).
.
What makes you think we even have the list? That thing is under lock and key. And there isn't a promotion list as far as we know. There isn't even a letter for "merit" picks for K9 that we've heard of.

Someone gets on here and posts "Who's got info on the K9 list?" five times a day and we get sick of looking at it. So do our readers.

If we had legit info, it'd be here. If our readers had legit info, it'd be here. Trust us.

OK, OK. Take a deep breath and relax. No need to jump down my throat. Surely, you've had a long and busy day BUT just think...it could have been worse... you could be Big Ike heading to the pokey soon.

The six of us P.O.'s here at our part time all agree, this is a total disgrace to our city and our department. I for one am not happy with anyone's misery and I hate criminals, but this puts another negative on our city and puts up back and the map for corruption. I take pride in being a Chicagoan and the police. This is sick just sick. I say get rid of them all Jfed, Carothers of course, Hubberman and the Mayor.

Don't you all see what happened here? Carothers screwed with
JFED (at the mayors request of course) by putting him on the hot seat numerous times before the city council and police and fire committee. This is payback by JFED who got his FBI buddies to dig up old bullshit on IKE to f@#k with him. Nothing IKE was indicted for is different from what BURKE, MADIGAN, VRDOLYAK (sp), DALEY or any other politician for that matter.

So he got his house fixed and a few baseball tickets. OOHHH!
Nothing compared to DALEY and company who have done far worst for years and who have written these types of favors off as "business expenses".
Don't like IKE and I'm certainly not condoning his alleged criminal activity but come on! He's done nothing different, really!

Oh well, he'll never rat on DALEY anyway.

Good Bye Ike (a.k.a. as JUBBA THE HUT) looks like he has had a few too many triple cheeseburgers. He will probably lose about 200 pounds at club Fed. With Blago on the way, Burris not far behind (conspiracy to circumvent campaign laws by talking about using his scumbag attorney to give the donation) maybe the Inspector General can give the U.S. Attorney the stuff on Daley’s nephew.

And Morgan Stanley owns some of the parking meter contract. And just by coincidence Bill Daley is with Morgan Stanley!

TRP.

And the list does not end there. The FEDS should also investigate, alderman (El Catrin) Rey Colon, whom just changed the zoning in his 35th ward, favoring the so called SCUMBAGS Brickerdike construction. The Zapata project went from 4 million dollars to 17 millions (our tax payers dollars) in a matter of days, approving it! In return, he will get kickback$, contribution$ and secured votes from the lowlifes savages (bickerdike Scattered Housing) residents in the next elections. This is how Humboldt Park Alderman’s keep getting elected, year after year. They are being PIMPED and threatened by the Bickerdike fucking BOZOS. These ASSHOLES are getting richer on our own expense and bringing more cancerous criminals to our community with this stupid affordable housing. Which every unit will cost well over $ 386,000.00 would you call it affordable?

Big Ike will go happily, keeping his mouth shut tighter than a drum. Nice long vacay for him, family members all get some nice promotions, old lady gets a nice envelope every coupla weeks, and upon release Big Ike gets some plum deal in addition to a huge retirement package (in cash of course). Hundreds of pols, contractors, and outfit guys need his silence. Not the least of which is his best friend and silent partner, Da Mare'.

Thursday,a.m., I first heard that there was a press conference being held by Fitz at 2:00, to announce an indictment against a high ranking public official. I was really disappointed that it wasn't Burke. Not that Ike d/n deserve it, but I would love Burke to get his comeuppance. I guess Daley doesn't want him (Burke) to be thrown under the bus(just yet).
Fitz buckles to the whims of Daley, make no mistake. How many years has he been the US federal
attorney?

I predict the next alderman from the 29th Ward will be a black man with the last name of Carothers. Daley has knew about this for months and the next one in line was picked already.

True:

"Ald. Isaac Carothers wore a wire for a year
One of Mayor Daley's closest allies on the City Council has been wearing a wire and secretly recording "public officials and real estate developers" for more than a year, a City Hall bombshell that was revealed in a federal court document Thursday."

from Sun-Times web site, let's pray this one yields the big fish we all are hoping for.

5/28/2009 08:42:00 PM

CAPS is, and always has been a Democratic welfare organization for their votes. It hasn't done a thing for crime reduction and is a public relations failure. Look at all the money wasted. We could have spent it on equipment or personnel.

Years ago someone in motor maitenance scrapped all of our squads for pennies on the dollar. This is why we haven't had enough pool cars. Soemone made a little money at the expense of our safety. No one fired, investigated or demoted. There is a story here.

The K-9 list is ready and sent up the chain. There are no merit picks in K-9, but the list will get "adjusted". It always does. They were ready with it weeks ago, the Federal money for them is in the bank, but politics rears it's ugly head again.

I was doing a project with the CPD as a civilian and had a meeting with a group that included Kathie Carothers at HQ. I had no idea who she was, other then a CAPS person. She was so sub-par on a professional level, no ideas, ill-spoken, bad attitude I kept thinking - who IS this person and how did she get hired and why she is in charge of anything? Not only was she clueless, she was completely condescending. Afterward I asked someone and the response was, " That's Ike's sister " with a big roll of the eyes. Man if that is an example of the clout hires you have to deal with...you have my sympathy. Is she still working for CAPS?

If somebody told you that....they were wrong...she is Tony's wife...

What happened to the CPD ?
In the 70's ,80's there were no 1 man units on patrol during the 1st and 3rd watch. Every district had 3wagons on patrol. During the 2nd watch we had a few 2 man cars.
Districts had officers assigned to parks , foot patrols and all the beats were working. There were no watch secretary or six officers assigned to caps. We were the police and the bosses were good.
The police wives protested and demanded 2 man cars and got it .
What the hell happened to the CPD.

Please look into the how's and why's of this city's "vendor" program that gives "clout- sorry..."minority-owned" vendors 20% mark ups for placing a phone call to manufacturers to re-affirm already ordered department equipment. DHS auditors were pissed asking why haven't we "spent" the money that was issued THREE YEARS ago. They shook their head when you explain to them about the city's "vendor" program.
