Holy Shit

  • Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s administration is leaving a West Side police commander in his post despite an April recommendation by the city’s Independent Police Review Authority that his police powers be stripped.

    The recommendation followed a DNA test bolstering a complaint that Harrison District Cmdr. Glenn Evans, 52, assaulted a South Side arrestee.

    The complaint, according to sources close to the case, alleges that Evans threatened to kill Rickey J. Williams, 24, and jammed his police pistol into the man's mouth. The sources spoke on condition they not be identified because they are not authorized to speak with the media.

    The DNA test, described in an April 17 laboratory report from the Illinois State Police, found that material swabbed from the weapon “matches the DNA profile” of Williams.
A DNA match on the gun? And Rahm is leaving him in place? 100-1 says he's gone by the close of business Friday. Jason Ervin is going to have a field day with this one.

BREAKING NEWS FROM 011 DISTRICT.

A uhaul truck just pulled up in front of the station and unloaded numerous cardboard packing boxes and delivered them to the commanders office. A crew of movers then proceded to to pack up all of Commander(former) evans junk and load it up into the truck.

Evans was then driven to the call back unit where he will answer calls from now on. He will no longer be able to run around the district causing chaos and havoc.

So long glen, you were just as dumbfounded as a commander as Penelope was. Yes, you were that bad!

Signed.

Let's forget about the agenda of the blog for a minute This is an allegation. So it has DNA on his pistol. You could make contact on anyone's body and have their DNA all over your gun. DNA doesn't mean it was jammed down his throat. Just cuz Evans is the flavor of the month for his policies in 11 doesn't mean this shitbirds story is even close to true I have plenty of complaints filed that were all exonerated or unfounded

Maybe it was a mistake not to re-assign the commander of 010 to 011. Rest assured, her gun will never leave her holster.

While I know things like that alleged (and now substantiated by the ISP Crime Lab) sometimes NEED to happen, Evans fucked up plain and simple. People that aren't the police (ghetto police, especially) don't realize that ghetto motherfuckers sometimes need to be talked to in a language they understand. Coppers also need to understand the days of being hands-on in the fashion elaborated in today's papers is a thing of the past.

That said, if Glen Evans isn't smart enough to make sure any possible source of DNA was removed from that pistol, he sure the hell ain't smart enough to run a district. This isn't the late 80s/early 90s, "boss".

Now here's the rub: if this was you or me (or any unclouted blue shirt), we'd be buried at callback fighting for our job and possibly our very freedom. Everybody under the sun - from our very own brass to the bullshit ghetto reverends to a sympathetic public - would be calling for our head. But what happens to some clown with a gold star that was only made commander because McWetBrain was impressed with the way he took a one-by-two to the head during NATO? They allow him to stay put where he's at regardless of the fact that crime has skyrocketed in the 11th district under his watch and his regime of suckass underlings is solely responsible for the biggest drop of morale this place has seen since Nate Gibson.

CPD... Where two tiers (and then some!) of discipline is proudly on display. Incident took place in January 2013, with DNA testing taking a full 15 months to come back positive. Then, three more months are allowed to elapse while he and his minions worked feverishly to further destroy a once-great district in which to work. A year-and-a-half goes by like nothing at all has happened while coppers rot for much less serious UNSUBSTANTIATED allegations.

And you wondered why those of us that are smarter than the average bear chuckled at your "Goget'em!" speeches? Why those of us that aren't impressionable newbies didn't jump through that contact card hoop and laughed when you said ANOVing every swinging dick on every corner would achieve some kind of magical results? Ha! Jokes. On. You!

I for one hope that Jason Ervin organizes some kind of march and protest. Maybe then some douche bag at HQ will finally make a command decision and get rid of Evans, Lemmer and his asshole secretary, as well as every other Kool-Aid drinking hand job that accompanied them over from the 003rd district to show us guys and gals in 011 "how to be the police". To leave these clowns in charge of this part of the circus after the totality of events described would be a travesty.

Four out of the first 12 comments are going to bat for this guy. Are you people that blind and or stupid? Even if there WAS some justifiable reason to have another person's DNA on your weapon there would or should be some kind of paper trail documenting exactly how it got there. And there isn't. The only paper trail that was done was by dudes lawyer. Now are you guys still attached to Evans nuts can contact some cockamamie story how dude was disrespectin' the commander and spit on the ground in his direction and the wind was whipping up at the time and it was able to magically blow that loogie onto the barrel of the commanders gun. That's a magic loogie story better than the one from Seinfeld. If the commander was smart he would put his papers in posthaste just like he had planned on when they talked him out of it and into coming to 011. Put a fork in him because he is DONE. and I don't know what Emanuel is thinking. Been busy kissing all the black ass for reelection. To leave him where he's at would be political suicide. Don't care how much the southside blacks claim to have liked him. When your alleged to be putting a gun in the mouth of black youth you are toast.

Commander Evans is a good guy and a hard worker. He should still be a patrolman being watched over by a competent sergeant.

The Chicago politicians need black faces in command positions. They promoted any face that fit the bill regardless of their ability. Most, if not all, of these faces were meritoriously promoted to their sergeant and lieutenant rank. Add the stress of command to those faces and you have really done them a disservice.

Glen Evans is a victim here too. Put in to a position he was not equipped for and pushed to produce these ridiculous COMPSTAT numbers by a maniacal superintendent who was only interested in making a name for himself.

The politicians will turn their backs on Glen, as will the superintendent. The taxpayers will foot the enormous bill. I hate politicians, I really do. You taxpayers let them do it, so there is plenty of blame to go around.

Check out article on marketwatch
"Do Police and Firefighters Die Young"

7/31/2014 10:48:00 AM



Note some key phrases from that article:


"...first responders are exposed to much greater risks at work than office workers or teachers..."
(Self-explanatory)


"...if they are not disabled or killed on the job..."
("If" is a pretty big word. Compared to other occupations, what are the chances of being disabled or killed on the job?)


"The results show very little difference at age 60 in the life expectancy of police and fire as compared with other public employees."
(If you only compare other public employees, but what are the differences between police/fire and other occupations?)


Although this article is dated July 31, 2014, I believe I've seen this somewhere else previously. I was researching this very topic.

Evans wants to be superman but is only a normal man. Well, not normal but only the powers of a normal man. In Glenn's mind no one can out smart him, out run him, or out fight him. He is a one man army in his own mind. The short time he spent in 003 I ultimately knew that unfortunately for all the good he wants to do. I knew we (my partner and I) had to avoid him.

He is chaotic, a manic at times. He created more bad than good and left others (beat/tact guys) holding his bag.

I wish Glenn well. I do. And he should probably get help with letting go and not taking everything so personal.

Let me sum it up real plain and simple like:

A). Gold star is accused of, and evidence strongly supports, putting his gun in some assholes mouth. Gold star not only doesn't get charged criminally, he doesn't even (yet) get spanked administratively after 18 months.

B). If a blue shirt with no clout (or even moderate clout) pulled this stunt, they'd be immediately stripped, put in a no-pay status and criminally charged. And probably federally with the infamous "Violation of Civil Rights" that guys like Bill Cozzi know all too well.

Now all you hard chargers get out there and manufacture some contact cards and pimp some poor bastard smoking a cigarette on CTA property with an ANOV to make motherfuckers like Evans and Lemmer look good at Compstat.

Funny that you used the mayors description as " Racoon Eyes" I was talking a black department of aviation workers who is juiced up in city politics from the old man Daley and Harold Washington days. He said that our beloved mayor(barf!!) had plastic surgery done and that only a few people know about it. What part of his body had the plastic surgery? The guy in the know said he had the black rings around his eyes removed. I guess being called Racoon Eyes by the people on this blog really affected him, but they don't read his insignificant blog. I've looked at his recent pictures on the news and the black rings are gone! You guys cannot call him Racoon Eyes anymore,LOL!

This Cmdr. is the "Fo Reel Polezze".
DNA can be on that gun from various sources including rubbing against it. This is not enough for demotion or termination. Now if it had been feces on the barrel, well that would have been more difficult to explain.

2) If it was you, your kid or your wife he was shoving something long & hard you'd be singing a different tune

If it was my kid I would figure he probably deserved it. My kid was a rotten SOB in high school, I wish the cops in 016 were like the 015th District Police were to me in 1967. They introduced me to a guy named Judge Saul Epton. I ended up on the Police Department instead of IDOC. Thank you Judge Epton. He turned lot's of kids around. The rest he sent to prison or to the Army Recruiter. Quite a few 18 year olds got to Vietnam, Republic of via Judge Epton's court.

And so what? Isn't that called being a police officer? You make it sound like he's going above and beyond and doing something unique. Now go lay in your bed and stare at his picture you have hanging on your wall.

You have a problem with doing police work? Sorry you are such a great cop that you have to dismiss when someone praises someone who is not you. I don't know exactly what the offender did, but for an old school cop to do something like this means one of two things: bad guy was a real piece of Shit, or the bad guy was a real piece of Shit and an older gentleman who should retire because he snapped and is fed up with city bullshit. Either way, I hear people bitch about letting the police be the police. This is it. You don't have the stomach?

I suspect that IPRA blindsided the Cmdr in approaching him for a DNA sample off his gun, before he had a chance to get near an alcohol wipe.
It doesn't excuse what he did, if the allegation is
true, but Glenn is a good man who worked tirelessly to gain control of out-of-control neighborhoods and
gangs. One would guess that retirement is probably his only option now, if the dept. isn't going to pursue criminal charges.

I for one hope that Jason Ervin organizes some kind of march and protest. Maybe then some douche bag at HQ will finally make a command decision and get rid of Evans, Lemmer and his asshole secretary, as well as every other Kool-Aid drinking hand job that accompanied them over from the 003rd district to show us guys and gals in 011 "how to be the police". To leave these clowns in charge of this part of the circus after the totality of events described would be a travesty.

SCC I'm surprised at you. You complain about the dept. publishing old allegations of misconduct and then you do it against this commander.

No one reads any more. Honest to god. Let's try this on for size:

We complained about the publication of the CR list because 90-plus percent of this stuff is Not Sustained/Unfounded bullshit. And if it's a small group of coppers, it's also a small subset of complainers gaming the system. We've stated it dozens of times before. Are there a few bad apples? Sure. Clout-heavy jags? Of course. Hard workers who get tagged for working? Definitely. We've stated for the record that coppers aren't above the law - but they aren't beneath it either. If no one is charged, they don't deserve to have their name splashed all over the place where plaintiff attorneys are going to try to make hay and get some truly notorious people out of prison on some made up shit, like Porter.

Second, these allegations are bombshells and the media already published them. We're supposed to turn a blind eye to this just because some fan-boys think he's the "real police?" Cozzi went to prison for a slap. A sergeant lost his job after being spit on and slapping a punk. Another sergeant got fired for hitting a drunk. Anita Alvarez has this case for months and ....nothing? Evans has been a loose cannon for years, protected by the powers that be. Google his name and "Chicago cop" and see what pops up.

This isn't the 1950's any more. We aren't liked. We've made no determination that this might be true, only that punishment has two or three different tiers, and it goes all the way up to the top. This is a prime example. And if it "surprises" you, you might be part of the problem.

DNA doesn't mean it was jammed down his throat. Just cuz Evans is the flavor of the month for his policies in 11 doesn't mean this shitbirds story is even close to true I have plenty of complaints filed that were all exonerated or unfounded

Keep up with that misinformation. No wonder juries believe the defense attorney's nonsense defense when he tells
them his client couldn't have shot that man because there was none of the bad guys DNA on the bullet.

In the real world, DNA is actually a little harder to transfer. It just doesn't fly off of us as we walk down the street. Could he have spat at the Commander's gun and hit it? Sure. Let's look at the evidence, not look to CSI Miami for speculation.

That's a stretch. How does a gun have so much DNA on it that they can make a match? We aren't talking about skin cells floating through the air. In 28 years I can't remember my gun coming into contact with an offender where his DNA would be on it. And as for any transfer, you'd have to get DNA off an offender, then pull your gun out and hold it pretty tight. Most likely the gun was in the shitheads mouth--best defense would be to say you didn't have a buccal and you used your gun as a swab....and we know how likely that is to fly.

Here's what happened. (I got this from a guy, who knows a guy, who heard about it from a guy who knows.)

Evans was making a street stop of three dudes by himself. Being out numbered, he had his gun out at his side. The dudes got frisky and one of them spit at him. Unbeknown to Evans, spit landed on the gun barrel.

The three subjects fled on foot in different directions. Evans knew he would see them again, so he didn't chase. He did not document the incident because he was unaware any spit landed on him. He would write the whole thing up later, when he found them.

The three reunited later. They all saw the spit land on the gun barrel. They called their dope lawyer. Lawyer had them memorize a lottery story, with one complainant\victim who had gun shoved in his mouth and two witnesses.

Evans was not stripped etc, because everybody knows an Exempt would never do anything as alleged.

They should be treated as such.

"""""Commander Evans is a good guy and a hard worker. He should still be a patrolman being watched over by a competent sergeant.

The Chicago politicians need black faces in command positions. They promoted any face that fit the bill regardless of their ability. Most, if not all, of these faces were meritoriously promoted to their sergeant and lieutenant rank. Add the stress of command to those faces and you have really done them a disservice.

Glen Evans is a victim here too. Put in to a position he was not equipped for and pushed to produce these ridiculous COMPSTAT numbers by a maniacal superintendent who was only interested in making a name for himself.

The politicians will turn their backs on Glen, as will the superintendent. The taxpayers will foot the enormous bill. I hate politicians, I really do. You taxpayers let them do it, so there is plenty of blame to go around.""""

I really am trying to figure out what the original poster is talking about and maybe that's my biggest problem. You're contradicting yourself. One minute you say Glenn doesn't have the ability to do the position. That's your opinion. For you to say Evans has no equipment for the position and that he is one of the black merit babies promoted regardless of ability doesn't add up. Loose cannon. Crazy as a bat. Sloppy. No people skills...whatever your concern with him, he actually made it off scores. There is a process for people that don't make it off their scores, its called merit. You complain that people underservedly are made because of merit then you say someone who actually passed the tests legit is not smart enough for the job either. Who is then? Let me ask you this...who do you want running the district more? Merit pick, always out for self, never been the working police jag or made by scores, hot head, always known to work, hardcharger that often seems to be in over his head with no poeople skills? I mean c'mon are you looking for a boss or a father figure? Fan of Evans or not, painting a broad stroke and grouping people like him and Barb West together in the same category is absolutely offbase at minimal.
