Good job

Good job to officers that were in the paper on Friday. Teamwork is everything!!

do you mean the ones from CID who came down and took the glory from the patrol division? CID doesn't answer domestic calls.

oh good god get a life!!!! boy you dont sound bitter at all.

I saw ther pic too. Nice of downtown to come out and play. Didn't C.I.D. bring Nate Morabito with them--what's up?? Doesn't he travel with them 24-7

Hey Idiot,
Why don't you find something wrong with every comment made. If I am not mistaken CID is part of WCSO. Lets give credit where credit is due. Yes the Patrol Officer did great, but you said "Does CID answer Domestics" I think the charges were attempted first degree murder. Get a life and quit trying to cause problems with the relationship Patrol has with CID. We all work at one department,and I thought we were one family. Lets put the jealous kid stuff away and be the professional law enforcemet officers that we are including; Patrol, Detention, CID, Support and all.

So what you're saying is that this case might not get re-assigned back to the poor ol' patrol officer who originally answered the call?

I really don't think any patrol officer just wants to be a report taker. I think most of our officers have the skills to do a proper investigation, therefore to have a case assigned back is just a opportunity to take some pride in your investigative skills. Yes CID does handle those big cases such as murder, attempted murder, burglary and such. I do think Patrol was congradulated on the great work they did on the stabbing murder a week or so back. So if you want to be just a report taker look for another job, WCSO has law enforcement officers, not people who just write down info and turn it in for someone else to do the job. If you haven't noticed lately you wear a badge and were issued handcuffs just like CID.

True, CID does handle big things like murder and attempted murder, but I promise that call didn't come in as one of those, it came across as a DV, and patrol went in first... you sure didn't see their picture in the paper though. As for patrol and CID being part of the "family" show me... how many aggravated burglaries have they worked lately???? if it isn't somehting that's goign to make the news it's getting kicked back to patrol and noone can say different. Oh and as for me I wouldn't ever want to be in CID, give me the road, that's where law enforcement lives. Not at HQ surfing the internet.

Your perception of what you think a patrol officer's duties consist of, shows just how out of touch you really are. This ain't the good old days of the England administration where a patrol officer might answer 2 calls and then call it a day. Today's WCSO Patrol Officers on average answers 8 calls each day besides serving civil and arrest papers, making extra patrols, performing lockjocks, observing traffic enforcement, providing private security details within the city during the shifts (ie. Freedom Hall, Winged Deer Park, Kubota ) and the like. Believe it or not, most patrol officers enjoy the challenge of investigating a case and seeing the process through, but unlike CID, patrol does not have 2-3 continuous hours of uninterrupted time to devote to solving a case.

BTW-be careful about being so quick to defend CID, I hear that these are the same folks who are making fun of you behind your back and who are getting rumors started about "certain" things that go on in the property clerk's office.

My point exactly. It would be nice to work a case from begining to end, but with some many things going on, and with dispatch and supervisors calling to get yuou to clear up, who has time to work an aggravated burglary, that CID doesn't feel like working because it's beneath them.
