Deadly Wednesday

Congratulations CompStat! (warning - paywall story)
  • A teen in a park on the West Side. Two men in their 30s in Uptown on the North Side. A woman in her 20s in the South Side's Morgan Park neighborhood.

    Chicago's most recent spasm of violence touched all corners of the city.

    On Wednesday alone, eight people were shot to death in homicides. A ninth victim — an 11-year-old boy — died of an apparent accidental shooting.

    That marked the most homicides in a single day in Chicago in more than a decade, according to a Tribune analysis of department data. The worst previous day occurred July 5, 2003, when Chicago saw 10 homicides, the analysis found.
Someone said that the CompStat meeting was quite the treat on Thursday - anyone want to chime in?

McPissPot has added yet another addenda to his seminal contribution to Chicago's skyrocketing homicide rate, better known as the Gang Violence Reduction Strategy, in which any and all "shootings" occuring in one twenty-four hour period within in a single district will now be classified as just one incident! And you really must admit that it makes sense in a delusional sort of way.

I'm hearing that commander KR from gang enforcement had to wear a pair of depends under his 80/20's at compstat today. A leak from Gary's office got word to KR that Gary was going to rip KR a new one, blaming KR and the other outside units for the recent spike in shootings. I haven't heard anything about the actual compstat meeting but I sure hope that Gary gave it to that jerk. I've never heard a single P.O./sgt./Lt. who's ever worked for that guy say a good word about him. He's made it to where he is by shitting on everyone below him and stroking every boss above him. KR has completely ruined his current unit to the point where a mass exodus is slowly taking shape. I'm hearing that 4 or 5 full teams along with their Sgts have already made their plans to leave and bid back to the districts and they're all going to do it at the same time to shove it up KR's ass to give him a taste of his own medicine. Maybe his 14 secretary's will suit up and fill in the spots on those empty teams.

I will chime in, who da phuck cares? Ferguson, Baltimore, NY, there are many incidents out there where the police do their job right and still get jammed up.

Yo Gary, you wanted this now you got it. How many contact cards helped out in these shootings? You teach younger officers that contact cards are important, get CC'S so you can have a day off, so you can get vri. The days of actually going out and doing police work are done. I hope you bosses are reading this because you created this and now YOU have to deal with it.

It used to be officers in the districts knew the gang bangers, knew the players. The officers would do proactive police work, stop cars, make arrests. Now its, CC's a few parkers, and let me get my VRI.

Its a situation the government created, and the city created. No more proactive police work. Heres your two parkers and a CC.

God forbid an officer kills a black teenager in EngleHOOD, who was pointing a gun at the officer. All I freaking hear is, Black lives matter.

How to avoid the paywall... Take the articles title: 'Chicago marks deadliest day by gunfire in more than a decade' and search it in Google. When you click the link to the story matching the headline you want to read, the Tribune site paywall is stopped for that article. Any referrals from Google to Tribune articles will allow you to read the story... Paywall or not.

Why bother with that waste of time stupidity comstat? Nothing but a waste of time, resources and energy just to let gary spout off about nothing! Get the hint boss, its not your fault the animals and savages are running wild, the blame starts at the White House with this so called president! You would think because he was from Chicago we would have stellar police services, a fully funded pensions, judges that put criminals away, a cook county board hack (toni) who did their job! When Bush was President his hometown of Crawford Texas had plenty of resources as he understood how to take care of his hometown. Wonder if when Trump takes office and removes all the illegals sucking trillions from our taxpaying economy, How much extra real estate will be available, how much extra space for public education, how when you go to the hospital you will not have thousands of illegals clogging the waiting rooms bringing all sorts of new diseases! The sooner these invaders leave the better adios!

I agree, send Gary packing to NY with his suitcase full of comstat and bring in that Legendary 10th district Sgt on days with his bullhorn as the new Supt. He will personally go out on the street and initiate stops which will bring up the contact card numbers, which will reduce homicides(LOL). He is nightmare to any thug standing on a street corner.

Yeah him and his two faced Lt. Who are absolutely terrified to loose a spot. Kr and GMAC together have destroyed that unit. Now after compstat yesterday all the new rules and changes happening give zero reason to even want to stay in that unit let alone do any work. Hours also changed now makes it pretty much like we are working midnights instead of nights. No thanks, I'll just milk it for as long as I can and wait for them to bounce me. I've got enough time on to land on a decent watch wherever I get sent.. As of the info that was relayed to us today of all the changes I am not the only one that has this feeling.

Sorry pal...the percentage of merit is and will be 30 percent. Mccarthy has averaged around 21-23 percent merit each class except the last one which was 31 entirely from the list. If 100 are made then the most he could put in is 30.

The only answer anybody has to this is
to keep beating up on The Police.

Police presence does not have the same impact it did in years past. There is no longer a fear of repercussions.It is now seen as a lottery ticket and get rich quick scheme.Our liberal prison and court systems along with new police policies have failed us. It is not a police problem it is the mentality that laws do not have to be followed if you are black. How can anyone take Black Lives Matter seriously when they don't even value their own lives. It is a ghetto problem. Fix it yourself without the police and fire personnel.

It was ridiculous that the entire force is chastised by the First (We are gonna write people up coming in this building.......We are looking at demoting, we haven't done that in 3 years.....) And also chastised and belittled at CompStat. There are civilians and guests in the CS audience and you talk to us like that? You owe us an apology. You don't dress down people in a public forum. Clear the room of civilians if you wanna stamp your feet. How bout the Mayor chew on you two in a public forum where you have no recourse. Again.... you and the Supt. owe an apology for the tone and rhetoric you displayed in front of others than the CPD.

Also there is this:

What is truly the financial cost of Comp Stat per month, not counting outside Units and the Unit itself designed to administer CS. My math will be rough but I'm sure this topic will bring out a real number.

22 Districts with at least 4 full time people working the numbers all week. (which they are in every single district in the city and all units have a few as well.)

An average of $45 per hour X 8 hours = $360 per day per officer X 4 officers = $1440 a day for all 4 officers X 5 days = $7200 X 4 weeks = $28,800 per month per district for 4 full time officers just working Comp Stat X 22 districts = $633,600 per month to run Comp Stat numbers for Districts only.

Now factor in all the units at probably 3 officers each unit (yes, EVERY unit has officers assembling stats for CS) and the full time unit to assemble all the Comp Stat power-points plus the cost of all exempts salary per hour as they sit for 3 hrs every Thursday. I would bet Comp Stat easily costs over $1,000,000 to run every month.

$$$$$$$$$

Very well said. This administration feels it's ok to talk to grown adults, in some cases guys who are older, more experienced and have more time on the job than them like they are children.. Even if they are not older or as much time everyone on this job is an adult.. They should be treated as accordingly. If GMAC or the first were to talk to somebody like that outside of this job in a bar, restaurant etc it's s good possibility they would be knocked out... These guys get paid to be exempt and white shirts etc but it's still unacceptable to talk down to a person like that... It's unprofessional and ignorant.

The first class of sgts. Off the most recent list did not have any merit sgts. That being said, the city loses the merit choices for that class and cannot add them to a future class. Each promoted Class is allowed 30 percent merit. If you choose to promote less merit than that's the city choice and they then lose it. It's not something they can bank for later promotions. 30 percent a class. That's it. No carry overs etc.

"The animals and savages are running wild" and the blame starts at the White House?That is so interesting. All my life I've lived here and somehow I thought I saw "animals and savages running wild" much before 2008. Come to think of it, it was much before 2004 also. It's funny how some of you hate liberal ideology on one hand but then sound like a liberal when it's convenient for you. If the problem with crime starts in the White House, that means the White House (the government) is responsible for it and can fix it. So pretty much you're a liberal democrat, angry that the federal government hasn't done enough to change your local crime problem. By the way, the POTUS didn't even live in the continental US until he was adult. He moved here in his 20s. That whole "hometown" thing is cute but not even close to true. The man is from Hawaii. His wife and kids are from Chicago.
