Evidently, no one, since COPA is involved in the PPP fraud, too: A top administrator and investigator at Chicago's Civilian Office of Police Accountability (COPA) received a federal "PPP" loan of $21,106 for an alleged babysitting business while she was a full-time employee of the agency. That's according to a review of U.S. Small Business Administration records by Chicago City Wire. Sharday Jackson, "deputy chief administrator" at COPA, where she leads investigations into civilian allegations of police misconduct, was approved for the loan for her "child day care services" company, which sh ..read more

Remember last summer (we think) where there was an unsubstantiated allegation that a cop from 010 had had illicit relations with an illegal alien resulting in a pregnancy? There were marches and protests and all sorts of bad publicity for the Department. Only one thing missing though: an actual victim COPA searched for a long time and came up empty....so they went to numerous other Districts, interviewing illegals in the lobby, desperately seeking a victim and came up with exactly zero. Maybe they ought to re-invent themselves and look at the Chicago Public Schools? Hundreds of cases over th ..read more

What we wrote about yesterday: The murder of a nine year old girl at a family party is prompting Chicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling to ask "Where's the (public) outrage?" As Snelling's CPD detectives work to identify the shooter or shooters, the I-Team has learned that dozens and dozens of shots were fired from an automatic weapon. "The number, the number of shell casings that were found at that location for multiple weapons. Right now I believe the number is 76," Snelling said. He said the spray of gunfire came from an automatic weapon. The guns most popular with street gang shoote ..read more

This was tucked away in a Tribune report about the currently room temperature Dexter: Andrew M. Stroth, an attorney representing Reed’s family, confirmed to the Chicago Tribune that Reed was previously shot. Stroth declined to specify what happened, but said the shooting left Reed with trauma that he was still grappling with at the time of his death. “Dexter sustained a serious injury from a family altercation in August of 2021. He was a competitive basketball player, an athlete, his entire life, and after that incident he spent several months recuperating and rehabilitating from that major ..read more

Who voted this asshole into office? Chicago Alderman Byron Sigcho-Lopez, a member of the mayor’s leadership team, headlined an event Saturday at which some participants chanted “Death to America” and plotted ways to disrupt this summer’s Democratic National Convention in the city. Sigcho-Lopez made headlines last month for appearing at another anti-convention protest, where he spoke next to a burned American flag. His appearance at the March 22 event prompted a nearly two-hour discussion before the City Council and an effort to remove him as chairman of its housing committee. The measure fai ..read more

Besides the usual hood crap, this will be a regular occurrence not doubt: Dozens were arrested Monday, after pro-Palestinian protesters blocked the roadway entering into Terminal 1 at O'Hare Airport. Friends and supporters waited outside Area Five police headquarters later Monday for the 40 people arrested to be released. Those arrested included 31 women and nine men, ages 19-43, according to Chicago police. At one point Monday morning, the pro-Palestinian protesters completely blocked access to Terminal 1 at the airport, and they blocked all lanes on westbound Interstate 190. Traffic came to ..read more

Listen....do you hear that? Yeah, we don't hear it either: A mass shooting Saturday night in New City took the life of a 8-year-old girl and left three boys — ages 1, 8 and 9 — wounded, two critically, according to Chicago police. Seven adults were also wounded in the shooting. Officers responded to a Shotspotter alert that picked up 18 rounds fired about 9:30 p.m. in the 2000 block of West 52nd Street, according to Area 1 Deputy Chief Don Jerome. A family was gathered for a birthday party outside when gunmen opened fire with assault rifles and handguns, according to a police report. Ther ..read more

If you want a logical and well written piece regarding police shootings, you don't go to the agenda driven media any more. Instead, you find a cop who has extensive experience in a wide array of roles. You find a guy like friend-of-the blog Jack Dunphy: I can scarcely believe there's a need to write this piece, but this is the pretty pass we've come to. I offer here some advice that (one hopes) most PJ Media readers will find unnecessary: When stopped by the police, regardless of how unjustified you may find it, do as you are instructed. Lower your windows and unlock your doors when asked to ..read more

An oldie, but a goodie: And very timely as the media is posting graduation pictures from eight years ago. There was a website a few years back (or a planned one) that was going to sell this picture along with a selection of candles, empty liquor bottles and some other nonsense. Does anyone know if it ever got off the ground? If not, feel free to steal the idea.   ..read more
