Good morning, everyone, it's 8am. Today, I'm monitoring 14 for all of you east of Central Park. Hopefully, it's not too busy, but we all know how busy 14 is. Anyway, I'll be leaving here for an hour or two because I have to run some errands. While I'm gone, I'll try to get archives on what happens, though. Also, I've got a busy week ahead of me. I've got the Avondale Neighborhood Association meeting to go to on Monday (at St. Hyacinth's at 7pm, in Resurrection Hall), then a block club meeting on Ridgeway (not my block) at 7pm on Tuesday, then I have to stay after school for a little bit on Wednesday for a meeting, then finally, on Thursday, I have to go with mom to my school for report card pick-up, and then I have a block club meeting for my block that night. I'm going to be really, really busy, and blogging may become VERY limited on those four days. So, here's crime for today.

to many sex offenders
I agree. Way too many of them.
Hi Timmy,
10:23am - Beat car 1431 is doing a Sex Offender check at 1921 N Milwaukee. Event number is 05915.
This means that there is a sex offender registered at this address and CPD is making sure they are there right? 1921 Mil Ave is some sort of halfway house/rehab place I believe. Lots of scumbags around that corner.
Here's a "funny" story about sex offenders in our neighborhood. Last year when I walked into the LS Blue Line station, I noticed a man sitting on a bench with his hands down his pants, leering at women and girls walking past. I asked the ticket person to call the cops. The offender must have known he had been busted, because he came up to the ticket area and confronted me, saying "you got a problem with me?" I got a really good look at him. He ran out of the station, and the ticket guy followed him, but lost him on Shubert. I waited for the police, but after 20 minutes decided they were never going to show up, and I'd just file a report later.
So, at work I get a hunch...and look at the Illinois sex offenders list. The guy was in there--no mistaking him. (He's young and has a baby face and completely weird stoned-looking eyes.) If I'm interpreting criminal code correctly, he was a registered SO for raping a young child. So the guy lives on Diversey near Troy, which totally explains why he fled up Shubert.
I went to the 14th station to file a complaint, bringing the info I had. They were reluctant to do anything...well, actually they refused. The intake officer said "Good job!" when she looked at the printouts I had, but she also said, "well, we just can't go and pick him up on your hearsay." ?!?!
Maybe I don't understand the law very well, or perhaps I shouldn't believe my lyin' eyes. I asked the CTA security staff if they had tapes of the incident, but (of course) they never followed up.
So, child rapist spotted masturbating in the train station, police do nothing. Good to know.
There was a call of the police harassing a driver of a car on the 2900 block of Ridgeway. A female officer was reported as screaming she's the police. (I heard this on my scanner) Are the cops always this rude on the beat?
Uh oh, fatties fighting over cheeseburgers at McDonalds.
Why didn't you just kick the masterbater in the balls, instead of bothering the useless police?
Hi j, yes, that's what it means.
Anonymous 6:16, that is disgusting, and it makes me upset to hear the "wonderful" 14th District cops did nothing about it (as usual). However, I do think that maybe you should've waited at least 40 minutes, unless, of course, you had to go to work or do something important. Calls like that don't always get a police response within 20 minutes, because it's not an in-progress call, and they might have some bigger things to respond to. But, of course, I really don't believe that was in the case, this being 14 and all. I can't trust those cops as far as I can throw, and that's not very far.
Anonymous 11:55, maybe the driver harassed that officer first. As much as I'd like to believe this, I really can't. Some of the citizens around here aren't very truthful when it comes to the police, and if the officer we're talking about was on 2523, that really makes me doubt it. I've met her personally, and she certainly doesn't seem like the type that'll just snap on someone like that. I'm thinking maybe this was an officer on another beat car going through the area, or an officer on the "rapid response" cars. If that's the case, I don't really doubt this happened. Some of 25's females are known to be rude. But if I did learn this was the officer on 2523, I'd be shocked.
With the response of the officers in 14 in regards to 6:16's complaint, I agree, anonymous 3:38.
Here's the skinny behind CPD not making any reports on much these days: apparently, CPD has some sort of policy on the books that says they don;t take reports for things they didn't see personally and they don;t respond to criminal incidents that they didn't witness.
Had a run in with a RSO long ago (tried to grab a minor family member), did the search on him, printed the photo, went to make the report and was told that the sex offender registry is not an accurate way ti ID anyone and that you have to be the police to do a "line-up" and that just because someone is a RSO and acts out doesn't mean they broke the law, even if you ID them correctly and the facts stand up upon investigation because it's all considered hear-say unless a police officer sees it.
Here's a useful, accurate way to interpret Illinois Sex Laws:
Sexual Assault = Rape
Aggravated Criminal Sexual Assault = Aggravated Rape
Predatory Criminal Sexual Assault of A Minor = child raped
Agg. Predatory Criminal Sexual Assault Of Minor = child raped and there are aggravated circumstances.
Criminal Sexual Abuse and Aggravated Criminal Sexual Abuse = any sexual act with threatened or actual force short of penetration with someone under 18, someone who cannot consent for any reason, the list of victim types gets longer from here. Most of the people with these charges are given the charge for a long list of sexual acts included in the law and may or may not be dangerous. The act may or may not have been violent, These people may or may not re-offend. These charges include teens who have consentual sex (Romeo & Juliet cases), kids who play "doctor" at the normal age, childhood sexual exploration, you name it...it's a catch all of sex acts that don't rise to the level of rape. These charges are laws that work at times and don;t work at others, they are easy to be accused of and convicted for because the level of evidence that has to be shown is almost nothing at all. It's simply "John Doe wagged his weiner at me", the victim signs a criminal complaint, shows up in court, the State's Attorney makes a plea deal so they can get rid of the case and now the accused is a registered sex offender. Like I said, these specific charges are very wide in the behavior they cover. Even things done in private with an adult who consents could be construed as one of these sexual abuse classes of law.
I'm the person who posted on 11/13. The victim was 4 years old. Looks like the offender has moved out of Cook County:
