What the Hell is This?

That didn't take long - Eddie has shown he is Rahm's tool to completely destroy the morale of the Department in order to deflect the spotlight hitting uncomfortably close to his bedroom and the bedrooms of all sorts of other cheating promotees.

This is a bullshit move:
  • When Chicago police officers stopped a Lincoln Town Car suspected of being used in a McDonald’s robbery in 2011, the female driver allegedly tried to run over one of them at a gas station on the West Side, police said at the time.

    The officer fired twice, hitting the woman in the chest and side, but she kept driving and came to a stop on an adjacent street. When she got out of the car, she was thrown to the ground, Tasered and handcuffed.

    On Friday, police Supt. Eddie Johnson released a video of the incident recorded by a dashboard-mounted camera. Although the shooting was deemed justified, Johnson is launching a reinvestigation to determine whether officers used excessive force during their arrest, said a department spokesman.

    In a statement, Johnson called the video “concerning.”
No Ed, what's concerning is your complete lack of something resembling a spine. Did the operation hurt?

This criminal attempted to kill police officers with a car for which she was justifiably shot. That she pulled over almost immediately has zero bearing on the officer's actions. She failed to follow verbal direction and was taken down with a move taught to each and every police officer currently on the job - the "emergency takedown." Any and every piece of clothing or limb or even hair is fair game, especially in a life-or-death situation on the street, to enforce compliance with lawful verbal direction given to an offender.

You can see her kicking and failing to submit to handcuffing, which means she was justifiably tasered. It's right there in the Use of Force model and in keeping with the training and directives taught to every officer currently on the job. She pled guilty to 12 years and her accomplice got 25 years.

The video is "concerning"? No, your willingness to reopen a five-year-old case already adjudicated as "Justified" to satisfy the political whims of a mayor who suppressed a video for his own political gain is concerning. There is nothing "concerning" in the video and quite frankly, it ought to be used as a training aid to show the immense restraint of the officers involved. But you're willing to put them in the Rahm-trick-bag in order to remove media attention from the promotion of your girlfriend and her buddies at IAD?

You're worse than a tool. You're an asshole.

Embryonic is where we need to be. They're going back 5 years to dig shit up (justified, no less). Go fuck yourself, boss. And congrats to your fiancé on her promotion, because we all know that was legit.

Saw this video on TV.

HEY - she fled, she did not stop. She evaded the police.

Why didn't she stop? If she was innocent, she did not have to run. Her mother said the robber had a gun to her. Well, as soon as he was out of the car, she should have pulled over.

Let's start educating people to STOP instead of running. No shots would have been fired at all.

STOP AND DROP - simple - Stop when you are told to stop. AND, drop the gun when you are told to drop it. MANY lives would be saved and cops would not be stressed out.

This woman was NOT innocent. No sympathy for her. Yet another investigation? Stop this pandering!!

I'm dead serious. It's not a joke. This video should be running NON-STOP on every bus and El Train. Run it several times a year at all the high schools. Run it until they get sick of it.

With all the money wasted on all these other BS programs, this 4-minute video conveys everything they need to know. How much money did all the cameras cost across the city? Time to change directions.

It's NOT cops' behaviors, it's people not obeying the law and having common sense when asked to stop.

My theory is that many high ranking officers have made very few arrests.

Heres why.

If they are clouted enough to eventually get to high positions, they are clouted enough to be kept away from the action and safe.

Also they have only so many years to get promoted so theyve got to get promoted to Sgt on the first try.

Once in the white shirt... Well you know the rest.

There was a nationwide search for the next Supt and the mayor circumvented the law just to hire Johnson who didn't even apply. If the mayor fires him, the mayor's gonna look like an incompetent asshole. And then the Supt can claim racism and make Rahm look an even bigger asshole.

Is this any surprise? Have it not been said that no matter who is in that position, outsider or insider, City Hall still runs the department, and they will end up being a 'scape' goat.

The truth is, the moment McCarthy was fired, shootings got out of hand. He must have been doing something right; and didn't he try to do some kind of reforms but hit a brick wall because of the city attorney? It's like the gangs knew with him gone, they can take care of some street business.

As long as there are no jobs, over regulation and taxation, a few 'rouge' cops, a school district on the verge of bankruptcy/greedy union; and a city/state with NO money, THERE WILL ALWAYS BE ISSUES.

That's why people and businesses will always make a decision that best for them - LEAVE.

"The truth somehow got out!"
I saw that on the news yesterday and was totally flummoxed. Martha Osborn was terrorized yet Tiffani Jacobs, the equally guilty girlfriend of the terrorizing monster, is the victim? "The girl had a gun, my wallet and the money from this restaurant when she was stopped," Osborn said. "Her mother (Sandra Jones) is spoon feeding a banquet full of bologna to the general public."
I saw the footage of Jacob's arrest and my liberal sensibilities weren't outraged. It seemed pretty straightforward and Jacob's had a gun and refused to stop even after being shot by police. Both Jacobs and Floyd May were tried and convicted, yet this television report has a quote, "Floyd May allegedly robbed the restaurant." Allegedly? What the hell am I missing?

I specifically heard Superintendent Johnson previously say "I've got your backs." He made it absolutely clear to the exempts on many occasions that if the troops did their jobs correctly, HE would ensure that the Department stood behind them 100%.

As a nearly three decade ranking officer, I look at this video and see a textbook arrest under stressful circumstances. No matter how much I play the Devil's advocate and look for some action on their part that could be construed as a rule violation, I see nothing. These officers simply did a phenomenal job. Needless to say, it boggles my mind that the Superintendent has now reopened a five year old investigation and stripped the involved officers. I understand that in certain questionable cases new evidence comes along that require stripping and reassignment, but this is not one of them. In taking these actions, the Superintendent has erased any provisional faith the officers have placed in him.

So, Eddie, because I know you read this blog I'm going to give you a piece of advice to fix the mess you've just created: 1. Conduct an extremely fast and thorough investigation (no longer than a week); 2. Publicly absolve and restore the involved officers; and, most importantly, 3. Give a press conference explaining to the public WHY the officers were justified in their actions. You need to explain to both the news media and general public that police work is not pretty. Let the public know that police are authorized by law to use force equal to or greater than that of the arrestee in order to overcome resistance or attack.

A now retired captain who I considered to be a great boss once told me: "It's easy for a supervisor to stand up for an officer who has done the right thing. The hard thing to do is stand up for an officer who has obviously done the wrong thing for the right reason." What he was saying here is that when an officer does something wrong, but does it trying to do the right thing with absolutely no malice in their heart, it is our job to stand behind them and look after them. Think about it... why would any officer need us to have their backs when they've done nothing wrong? I share this wise advice with all the current and future supervisors of this once great Department. Hopefully some of you internalize it and take it to heart.

Perhaps the end goal is to completely disband CPD and only have county police. The city does not need two police departments. This has happened on a smaller scale in other cities and if you don't think it can happen to CPD think again.

Thirty years as LEO and I see nothing more than correct take-down procedure of a suspect involved in an armed robbery. All involved, including the offender walked away and lived to see another day.

This so-called Superintendent is nothing more than a stooge for Rahm, that will do and say anything to promote Rahm's screwed-up view of policing in today's environment.

Stay safe.

When you thought that morale couldn't get worse it just did. I promise you that police officers are going to do even less. We're out here trying to serve and Protect the citizens of Chicago while trying to take care of our families if you think that officers are now going to put their families on the line for ungrateful people and an administration who will hang us at the drop of a dime you're in for a rude awakening.

This suspected offender was an armed robbery offender c whether she was just the sriver. The cops are not supposed to walk up to the car and say HI etc. This was a bonified incident and her hitting g the ground too hard was too bad for her. These officers didn't know she has mental issues allegedly. My advice is to report to work and man your car and that is it.YOUR BACKS ARE NOT COVERED AND SHAME ON EVERY POLICE UNION FOR NOT COMING TO YOU AID OUT THERE. STAY SAFE AND FETAL.

https://www.facebook.com/Fox32Chicago/videos/10154593862833. The standard question to any excessive use of force complaint is, was the force used reasonable and would another police officer in that same situation use the same force. If you look at the video this woman stole a ambulance and lead police on a chase. The officer used the same amount of force and take down as the CPD officer,mind you she only stole an ambulance,the female in Chicago just committed an armed robbery, lead police in a high reckless police chase, and tried to run over officers. What a coincidence that two different officers from two different agencies used the same take down of a fleeing felon? Could it be its because that is how we are trained. Could this coincidence make the force used by the police officer reasonable?

2. People very close to me were meritorious sgts, not smart enough to do well on a lts test and not smart enough to cheat and throw a couple of answers in order to stay off the radar

Strike 2

3. Strip officers on a five year old incident (or was it even a beef or just part of a U number?) for an emergency takedown on a felony (forcible not narcotic) stop and using a taser on an active resister/assailant.

Strike 3-1,000,0000

We all drink the same water in this town how can there be no common sense shown by so many people, mostly those in charge.

To my fellow brother officers who got stripped, consult an attorney now. File a civil lawsuit now. Don't wait to see what happens, go on the offensive. The Union should be on top of this. Find out what lawyer they are appointing to you now and begin making contact with them. If you are unsatisfied with their knowledge and expertise, make the Union hire the lawyer of your choice. I honestly think the Union will be helpful to you in this instance because you are being railroaded for political purposes and it will have an effect on all of us. Just remember that the civil lawsuit is up to you to initiate.

I'll be glad to testify to what damage a vehicle can do. I was struck by a vehicle estimated traveling 60 mph, in what was an 0110 attempt by a suspect I had arrested numerous times. F1 witness stated I bounced off the car 7-8 times, rolling over the vehicle and landing on my feet. This was before the days of MRIs and CTs, etc. So back to work authority the gold badge.

Fast forward 20 years, I have a back and neck with massive scar damage, all vertebrae herniated and compressed along with arthritis on the scar tissue. Hip was damaged and crumbled about 6 years ago. Replaced with hip that was recalled and got Cobalt poisoning from the bad hip with resulting hearing loss, tissue destruction.....

I'll be glad to testify for any PO who takes action against a motor vehicle assault. Most days I wish he would have succeeded with killing me.

Just remember that the higher up people go in rank, the more they compromise their ethics and morals, assuming they had any to begin with, and the closer they resemble typical politicians. I don't give a damn what "fill in the blank" was like in your academy class, on your watch, on your tact team, etc.! People are intoxicated by and get addicted to the money and power and status that getting promoted provides them. It becomes easier and easier for them to justify their actions, no matter how f'ed up they are.

Two pieces of advice:
1. Have ZERO expectations for any Superintendent, so when they occasionally do something positive, you can be pleasantly surprised.

2. ALWAYS believe in karma. Whether it happens quickly or takes years to happen, I always like to think that stuff comes back to bite people in the ass to even out this world. For example, even if no one involved in the Lt exam cheating scandal gets fired, I truly take great pleasure in knowing that behind closed doors, all involved parties have that unique, horrible feeling in their gut that the next phone call, text, or email might be the one that destroys their bogus careers or exposes them for the cheaters they are.

Fop's response? Press conference denouncing these trumped up charges? Organizing a protest regarding Supt's "concerning" behavior? Energizing the members and informing them that they should do the bare minimum until the Supt starts telling Rahm no. If anyone looks at that video and sees anything concerning its that the officers risked their own lives to arrest a dangerous felon. No confidence vote. Rahm picked him because Rahm knew he wasn't smart enough to do anything on his own. This department is being micromanaged like never before because our chiefs and deputy chiefs are all incompetent politicians and certainly not police officers.

This is bullshit. She was guilty as Hell and sentenced accordingly -- 12 years in prison for her part in her crimes.

And what exactly is 'Excessive Force'? Each arrest is different, each suspect is different and each responds differently to being arrested. Even civilians know that much -- well, except for graduates of Public Schools and Colleges for the last couple decades, those people are amazingly stupid.

So who gets to determine what 'Excessive Force' is now? It seems that the Perpetual Whiners, the rabble rousers in the Professional Grievance Industry, and ACLU now get to make that determination. Not your supervisor(s), or any 'police board' previously tasked with that job -- people who actually HAVE made arrests and dealt with criminals first hand.

And given this nonsensical second-guessing that you police are being put through now, some wonder why arrests are down and crime stats are up. The stupid assholes, they also probably wonder why the Sun rises in the East each day.

I am long retired and glad of it. But, seeing what is going on now, I have often said and I will say it again, if you do anything until all of this new smoke clears and you see what lies ahead you are being very foolish . Eddie Johnson is an unknown at this point as is Kim Foxx. There are many liberals out there ( they like to be called "progressives" these days), that think every white copper is a racist and brutal and must be controlled or fired. They want your union busted and the " just cause" standard used to protect you crushed and any state law protecting you erased. Watch yourself and be careful. The good people outnumber the assholes in this town but the assholes are now in charge. You will see the hand writing on the wall when union contract talks open up .There are moves in Springfield right now to revoke the officers bill of rights.

Avert eyes and don't salute the reviewing stand at St. Jude. Send this pandering motherfucker a loud and clear message.

Then (pipe dream, here) FOP needs to very publicly declare a vote of no confidence in Eddie.

Eddie confirmed himself as just another worthless puppet when he visited Pfather Pfaker his first day as Stupidintendent rather than visiting the troops whose morale is pretty much shot. I called it from that same moment others said things like "he's the real deal" and "he'd never hurt a working copper". I'll NEVER have an iota of respect for a person like that. He is NOT a man.

FUCK YOU, Eddie.

I first saw this video on the news with music on and the sound off. I thought, damn, thats pretty rough for a traffic stop. Then I thought, they are screwed. Today I actually read the story, saw what that stop was from and had a completely different point of view. THEN.....I read they are investigating the Officers??????WTH?!??!?!?!?! Ill be the first to speak out against Excessive force but this? THIS???? Man I am not getting it at all. I swear I thought this type of stuff wouldnt happen under the new Supt.Well, sadly, I have be proven wrong. Damn. Unless there is some other angle from another Squad that shows me something else, I can't see why they need to re-open this investigation. Quite disappointing to say the least. If were going to get served up for something like this, maybe it's time to 'fix' the in car cameras. I hate to say that but its either that or just don't do anything.

We have a new type of exempt who are only out for themselves. When a boss tells you, "I will always back you when you are right", you should reply, "I won't need you when I'm right. I will need you when an incident plays out not accordingly to policy and the pieces of the puzzle are not fitting properly". Just look at recent events surrounding political matters where detective investigations are warranted and officer involved incidents where force needs to be used by officers. Coppers and Detectives are getting suspended and the bosses involved may op to retire and receive NO suspensions. Let's not forget about the Lieutenants examination scandal. DO NOT TRUST AN EXEMPT!!!

OT --

The chemists are busy, busy, busy over there in China. I have read that the new accessibility of patents, research reports, etc. over the Internet has allowed them to easily dig back into patents for very powerful drugs that were never brought out -- "no real clinical use," "too powerful," etc. -- so they can start making the stuff like crazy. Takes a big professional lab to do this, not some bottles and washbasins in the garage. Can you say...government?

There's a new street drug with crazy potency emerging

April 22, 2016

"Get ready to hear much more about a powerful new street drug called W-18. Police in Edmonton, Canada, this week announced a huge seizure of it made in December—4 kilograms, or enough for hundreds of millions of pills, reports the Globe and Mail.

"The drug is a synthetic opiate like fentanyl that produces a heroin-like high, but it's 100 times more powerful than fentanyl and 10,000 times more powerful than morphine.

It's probably being churned out by labs in China and then shipped to North America via services such as FedEx.

"This is the second major W-18 seizure within a year in Canada, but it's not just a Canadian problem. A drug dealer in Florida convicted of importing fentanyl also had 2.5 pounds of W-18, the Sun Sentinel reported in March.

"But because the drug isn't illegal—yet—it didn't factor into his sentence. "This is the most deadly drug trend I've seen in 31 years," says an epidemiologist at Nova Southeastern University in Florida.

"Scientists at the University of Alberta developed W-18 in the 1980s as a potential painkiller, though it and other strains in the "W" series, which ran from W-1 to W-32, have since been used mainly for research.

"The CBC notes W-18 is the most powerful of the 32. No tests are available to detect it in urine or blood, which means it may already be taking an unknown toll on users if it's being cut into other drugs—and perhaps be at least partly responsible for the escalating deaths attributed to heroin.

"Often, if the analog is mixed with heroin, heroin just becomes the cause of death..."

You can't train free-range-running crazy people who hate you to do anything. Armed robbery crew here, doesn't want to get locked up, so the inevitable ensues.

Old story. Frank Pape knew. Staked out for two robbers, here they come, ordered to stop, one turns with a gun. Dangerous men. That's why Frank brought the Tommy gun...so he could die peacefully at age 90.

3 killed and 20 shot here since Friday, says the radio news...

Last night, CH& actually interview the one of the victims of this crime, a woman who had a gun stuck in her head and was told she was going to be killed, no only that, she is older and walks with a cane.
She also mentioned that the police recovered the money, and gun from the car that this girl was driving.
By the way, Ch 2 and 5 only showed the slanted, anti-police part.

We know what to expect, All the 007 district supervisors all over the radio every minute of every day!!! It's a contest I believe between: 760, 762, 700x, 799 and 720 on who can talk on the radio more. They make huge mountain's out of molehills!! But today takes the cake... Ready... 760, eastbound down the gangway!!!! Dispatcher repeats. 760 (out of breath) southbound in the alley. Dispatcher repeats. 760 I'm Chasing... A..... Brown dog. Dispatcher: A what? 760: We just shot multiple rounds at a brown dog. I can't catch him. Dispatcher: Ok 760: I'm chasing him on foot since I shot out one of the tires on my squad car. Dispatcher: you did what? 760: repeats last statement. This went on and on and on. 762 (out of breath) Dispatcher: 762 go ahead. 762: Squad this dog is being totally uncooperative at this time. My partner almost crash the squad car as he drove at this point laughing so hard. 760... Dispatcher (kinda of laughing at this point) 760 go ahead. 760 I need crime scene tape out here for my squad car and let's get the street blocked off!! You get the point, this went on and on and on and on. All these young new copper in this district and these are their leaders. And these type of leaders go all the way up to the top. As long as we have "leaders" like these guys, nothing constructive will change on the department.

You rob a place of business, use a car to run over authorities, you get what is happening to you. Fuck that. Why are we continuing to pay legally for criminals? I have yet to see a video of a black kid just walking down the street and getting punched or fucked up by the police. Zero. These are fucking criminals.

Can someone tell me what FOP has to say about this?

The offender was convicted, Right
And 5 years have passed, Right

I think the FOP in upcoming contract should be asking for time limits on any CR number pulled by IPRA or IAD, Like 2 YEARS, since witnesses and evidence disappears that quick.

Stripping officers for over five years and no findings is crazy.
Now the City is reopening cases that have been closed just so they can display
the video and muddy up a good officer..........

A citizen reader: You are correct, Eddie Johnson is a tool for this Mayor as has been every Super after O.W. Wilson. If anyone thinks this guy is the breath of fresh air the CPD needs, you are nuts. The breath of fresh air has to come in City Hall and the Alder theives and ultimately the voters who are continuously stuck on stupid electing the leadership many of us elect. When I read this first in another source I had to read it again. When I thought about it, there is a reason why THIS case is being looked at. It is NOT because of the curiosity of Eddie. There has to be another reason, a personal reason either for him or some crony who wants it looked at again. It could be a member of the esteemed plaintiffs bar who is looking for the next circuit court civil jack pot in the news, it could be a pol who is related to these mutts looking for an early release but rest assured of one thing, there is someting rotten in Denmark pertaining this case and it is NOT police misconduct.

Why not play the video from the 7-11, where the bartender goes in for a snack, gets cold cocked by some shithead, is laying unconscious in the street, and the only ones to approach are the FERAL shitheads who rob him? Right before some cabbie runs him over and kills him? Where's that video? Show the world what pieces of shit roam this city.....go ahead, build a 2 billion dollar Lucas museum.....there won't be one tourist left in this shithole to visit the phucking thing.

That is the problem with the Chicago Police Department, the momma said she is mentally challenged but graduated from Malcolm X College, is she mentally Challenged or not? Living with or recovering from a mental illness does not make you illiterate. Many people living with or recovering from a mental illness have genius IQ's and some belong to MENSA. These comments show why crime is at epidemic rates, the low lifes & illiterates get more respect and less harassment than the working, contributing & mentally ill!

I saw this as well and was shocked to see ABC run it. Great for the victim to give her perspective. Blows Mommy's cry for special treatment for her daughter to bits. Keep her in for the FULL 12.

They should run her eye-witness testimony for a straight week. ALL you other stations - where is YOUR journalism skills? What's the other side of the story. Hate to give credit to ABC - but they smoked ALL the other stations.
