Bye Rod! Bye Tom!

  • A federal judge on Wednesday refused to throw out former Gov. Rod Blagojevich's lone conviction from his trial last summer.

    U.S. District Judge James Zagel rejected the defense contention that prosecutors brought an overly complicated case that confused the jury and then damaged Blagojevich's right to defend himself by limiting his lawyers at every turn.

    The jury convicted Blagojevich of a single count of lying to the FBI but deadlocked on all 23 other counts. He is set to be retried on those charges April 20.

  • In a stunning turnaround, Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart has decided not to run for mayor of Chicago.

    He was not willing to spend the time away from his five young children, he said.

    “I was convinced that if I ran I could win as mayor,” Dart said. But he said he decided it would be “impossible’’ for him to be mayor and also manage the responsibilities of being a husband and father: his kids are all between the ages of 1 and 9. To be mayor would mean to “be less of a father,’’ Dart said at a news conference from outside of his offices at the Cook County Jail Wednesday.

So we've got "reverend" Meeks, who might not even live in the city, Mosley-Braun who is a product of the Machine and known moron, Chico who has enough baggage to perform as a Samsonite commercial and Fioretti, an aldercreature/lawyer who has a lucrative law office that will keep him from starvation.

Oh yeah, and Rahm. We are so doomed.

OT:
To the JACKASS that stated the following------

"Mike Shields relax what about the horse and pony show you put on with your camera antics with Huberman????
You portrayed yourself as the hero of the Chicago Police Department your better to grow a few whiskers and learn the job first."

ARE YOU F-ING KIDDING ME!!!!!
First, I don't know Mike other that the 2 occasions he stopped by our unit to talk to us after roll call. That said, he is the ONLY person that has brought to light the crap that is going on with our pension. Name anyone else that has done half as much as Mike to keep us aware of the crap thats going on....YOU CAN'T CUZ THERE IS NOBODY ELSE. Our pension is in dire straits yet officers have their heads in the sand. And only now that the problem is so far gone has our union started to take interest. Whoever you may be take your bullshit comment about Shields and shove it up your ass. Whatever his motive may be, at least he is doing the right thing for all of us you asshat!

I haven't seen anything about this yet on the blog, but I have seen this on TV news and in today's Sun Times. How J Fled and his group of merrymen (David Kenney from John Jay College) and Command Staff try to take credit for this is a joke. "Cops make good on threat to gang banger", and lock up 66 Black Souls after one of thier members gunned down (Killed) a rival, within 2 weeks. First of all prior to this big gang meeting there were at least 4 different gang investigations going on. Now for the rest of the story, it had already been determined that who ever the Police could ID as an offender in a gang shooting or Homicide was the gang that was going to be the target. If anyone thinks that the Police can put together an investigation and complete it within 2 weeks, that gets warrants for 66 people from one gang for drug offenses and 1 for murder they are drinking the kool aid. It doesn't happen that way. To see J Fled and the rest of his merry crew try to take credit for something he knowns nothing about makes me sick. I know this to be true because like the fly on the wall, I was there.

O.T. If you needed another reason to hate DemocRATS here it is:
Over 35 counties in Illinois missed the deadline to mail military ballots to our soldiers defending America. But in Chicago, county election officials have taken special steps to ensure that no inmates at the Cook County Jail are unable to cast a ballot. The Chicago Board of Elections hand delivered ballots to the jail. They don’t even wait for the inmates to apply – they bring the applications with the ballots! Over 2,600 inmates have cast ballots so far – strikingly similar to the 2,600 soldiers who will likely not receive a ballot for the Nov 2 election. Disgraceful does not begin to describe the Illinois Election system.

How about a time out for a little civics lesson. Lets see, Dart first took a spot in the state senate, then a state rep, then ran for state treasurer, got hooked up with the sheriffs office through Sheahan, then ran on his own. Were the concerns about being a failure as a father around during those campaigns? Someone must have either dug up (no Burr Oak cemetery pun intended) something or promised something more than "appreciation" for him to take a dive at this early stage of the game.

Leave it Doty to cut the throats of the working police. When his boy meritorious Milt and him worked in 006,
their tact teams did a lot of questionable acts that they should have been called to the carpet for. Now Doty, angry because he was going to get dumped from being a DC to a LT before he quit, is angry because he got passed over for Dep Chief and got forced out by Weis and co. This is his payback.Doty is and always has been a vile, hated backstabbing scumbag that rode on the coattails of Chuck Ramsey and ex Deputy Shields. He hopes that Emanuel becomes mayor so he makes Shields the Supe ,and brings him and meritorious milt back to CPD. Doty was the most disrespected ,hated exempt next to JFED and the U of C guys hates him and Milt as well.

FOP Lodge 7 has posted the lawsuit filed by plaintiff Officers Lynn MEURIS and Jason VANNA (006) v. the lying, cowardly piece of feces J-Fled and the City of Chicago. See FOP "Current Updates" for link.

I also e-mailed a copy to J-Fled and 207 unidentified (bcc) recipients.

Wow! 6 days ago, SCC publishes that an entire southside tact team is about to get stripped. This morning, it happens. Word is that former Commander Doty, head of the U of C police, turned over an entire 003 team for snatching an arrest from his cops and falsifying official reports to say it was theirs. Nice going idiots. You've sounded the death knell for tact teams city wide.

Not true, the guy has a good lawyer and when he told him what happened he made a call, won the case before it even went to court.

Home invasion in 017 may be more complicated than just a random target....

I used to work in the jewelry business for a high-end company. It's not unusual for a robber to spend time tailing a target and casing their place before acting.

He may have been a target due to his business, or it may have been something else entirely. I don't want to speculate further until the detectives have had time to investigate.

BS Doty called IAD to UCPD office and gave them the entire file and lodged the complaint after a UCPD guy beefed about getting knocked off the arrest.
A boss should take care of working officers but there was a better way to handle this situation.

Bullshit! Doty initiated the whole thing. 4 clowns stripped for doing some real fucking stupid shit. From what I heard at least 2 of them are soft as shit. Also heard the Sgt. was stripped. I've worked for him in the past and don't believe for a second that he had any knowledge of what was written vs. what happened. Supervisors take note, you will be held accountable for approving all reports, whether you know the facts of the report to be true or not. My question is, if the Sgt. is stripped for nothing more than approving the arrest report, is the Watch Commander also subject to being stripped because he/she gave final approval?

The PO's in this case, if what I heard is true, are F-U-C-K-E-D fucked fucked fucked! Criminally and open to civil suits with the City paying and more than likely punitive damages by the PO's to the robbery/uuw offender.

While I agree that what these PO's have allegedy done is complete idiocy, the U of C police may have to fight their own battles from here on in, literally and figuratively. I won't be going out of my way to help them. As a friend of mine used to say, I gotta stand with the people who love me."

The Politiburo of Crook County has decided, in a closed session, tjat the next king..I mean mayor, of Chicago will be Rahm "The Dirty Dancer" Emannuel. The election is just a legal formality.

It is sad that with American troops fighting for democracy on foreign soil that there is so little of it here.

If you're on the CPD then you really need to get a new line of work.

The statements you made are racist, to the n'th degree.

If your fellow police officers, if you are one/ or those that just abhor that line of thinking don't take you to task, I think I just might lose faith in my brethen.

Could Dart have been promised something else in return for not running, absolutely. Supt. of Police is possible but not likely that Chicago would have three white supt in a row, it will also return to a 190,000 a yr job. Heavy endorsement for another office or a federal spot, very possible. Is it possible he just backed out because the next four years are going to be very difficult and he would not be re-electble? Yes, thats why alot of candidates have backed out or not declared at all. On another note, keep this in mind, Chicago is a high priority target for terrorist attacks. If Rahm wins, and he probably will, Chicago becomes even more attractive to hit because in addition to it being the "home" of the POTUS it will have a very pro-Israel Jewish mayor. Its like killing three birds with one stone. Hope like hell a viable candidate appears or that Rahm gets alot of funding from Washington and spends it on rejuvinating CPD and CFD, including maybe some TARA training by the Mossad.

I thought "shalom" was a salutation that meant "peace."

Now saying "shalom" is anti-Semitic?

What about "salaam?"

Is "hello" still OK?

Yeah, it often boils down to "someone thinks that something's there." It may not even be true.

Remember "In Cold Blood?" Whole Kansas farm family of four wiped out by two drifters working on a jailhouse rumor about "a big safe full of money" that was spread by a possibly disgruntled former field hand from that farm.

There was no safe.

The magnetic signs on the side of the car saying "BUYER OF GOLD ANTIQUES FISHING TACKLE" might not be such a great idea.

There was one character with a Luger collection -- the entire basement filled with glass cases of every variation of the rarest stuff you could imagine -- who sent out Christmas cards showing a color photo of the whole thing.

Et cetera. One home invasion I vaguely remember in a suburb -- I think the homeowner shot the robber? -- had to do with a rumored coin collection. I know I've heard of more than one involving someone who owned a liquor store in a horrible part of Chicago but lived in great style out in the suburbs.

Sssh.

Let's see. What are our choices.
Braun. A product of the machine who doesn't know her ass from a hole in the ground.

Meeks. You think Daley fucked over the police. We will be wishing Daley was back.

Rahm. An Obama clone who will tear the unions and the city workers to shreds. In 4 years Chicago will have half the manpower and be Bankript.

Chico. An Eddie Burke boy from way back when. Knew him years ago and have seen him cut anybody and everybody's throat to fill his pockets. Took a Major thriving law firm and completely destroyed it in less than a year. You think he could run the city any better.

Fioretti. Yes a lawyer, but at least he stood up for the police and has given J-Fled shit on many occasions. He gets in, the first replacement will be J-Fled.

If I had to make a pick, I will vote for Fiopretti. Don't know the man, but at least his background has the least baggage and is not a puppet or vindictive like the rest.

Make your own choice, but since Hoffman isn't running, the least dangerous and probably best choice is Fioretti.
