Loevy & Loevy v. Law Enforcement - You Tube Blue & Five Cop Geologists

Arthur Loevy was a labor lawyer for Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union ("ACTWU")and he became the top of the labor pyramid -Secretary Treasurer -International Executive Vice President of ACTWU, International Secretary-Treasurer of ACTWU that is the co-captain of the team along with President. Huge. A Titan. Then he left? What happened?

He became a salaried legal consultant for a Police Union?

Then, Jon Loevy gets tossed a heater case by old Al Holfeld a lawyer who tried to be a U.S. Senator and Illinois Attorney General and Dad came back armed with knowledge about cops and how cops work and think.

He had Cops and Loevy and Loevy still have cops - These five:

William Stutzman Wheeling P D ( RET )

Solomon Smith Maywood P D ( RET )*

Michael Dwyer Evergreen Pakr P D

Marty McGrath Oak Lawn P D

Butch McGorkle Burbank P D

These police officers played an active part in the launching of the Loevy & Loevy law firm and three have an active part with barrister Arthur Loevy - to this day

Kind of like that Man from Glad looking guy on the old Perry Mason show? No. He was a private dick. These are cops. States Attorneys get cops. Loevy & Loevy? Moonlight work, I suppose, and probably lucrative.

Three cops still on the job and two retired do the geological survey and find the gold.

It's an industry and Loevy and Loevy is industrious.

More down the pike, Kids.

Bellwood deputy chief lacks arrest powers
BY JOHN HUSTON
STAFF WRITER
In spite of his involvement in two high profile arrests earlier this year, Bellwood's second-highest ranking police officer is not qualified to place individuals under arrest.
In fact, Deputy Chief George Murray is not even listed on the Bellwood Police Department's official roster with the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board, though he was hired two years ago.
The ILETSB is the agency which oversees all law-enforcement and correctional officers in the state, outside of the Illinois State Police.
Murray was hired by Bellwood in 2003 after he retired from the State Police, where he served for nearly 30 years.
Since the State Police have their own training process, different from that which municipal officers go through, Murray would have had to apply for a waiver from the ILETSB in order to qualify as an officer for the Bellwood department.
But that waiver was never issued and the ILETSB has no record of Murray.
"They have to let us know he was hired and ask for a waiver based on the fact that he was trained by the State Police, but I don't have any of that," said Sheila Albright, spokeswoman for the ILETSB. "He is not listed as a certified officer in Illinois."
Also not listed on Bellwood's roster is Wilson Pierce, Bellwood's public safety director and interim police chief, who was hired at the same time as Murray.
Pierce refused to comment on the matter.
"I can simply tell you that Deputy Chief Murray has (nearly) 30 years of experience as a police officer with the Illinois State Police," Pierce said.
He refused to comment on why a waiver wasn't applied for with the ILETSB that would allow Murray to make arrests.
As for why neither Murray or Pierce were added to Bellwood's official police roster, Pierce responded, "I wouldn't know what that reason was."
Pierce said the public safety director position is purely administrative and that he has not made any arrests, but refused to comment on whether he holds the power to make arrests.
When reached by telephone, Murray would not answer questions about his qualifications.
Since Murray is not recognized as a certified police officer, he is not allowed to make arrests or carry a weapon -- both of which he has done.
One of Murray's arrest came April 8 when Jeanette Johnson, a Bellwood police officer and former Bellwood School District 88 Board president, was charged with battery to a police officer, resisting a peace officer and violating election code.
Johnson's attorney, Tom Crooks, said he filed a motion to dismiss the resisting charge at a Friday hearing due to the information that Murray is not a peace officer.
No judgment was made on the motion and the case was continued until Aug. 5, said Colin Simpson of the Cook County State's Attorney's Office.
"I had a brief conversation with the deputy chief and asked him if he had a wavier and he said he did not and he wanted to talk to the town's lawyers, so I continued it for a short date," Simpson said.
Another arrest Murray made may also hinge on whether he is determined by the court to be unqualified to make arrest, Simpson said.
On March 31, then Bellwood mayoral candidate David Ireland and his campaign coordinator Solomon Smith were arrested at a Metra station and charged with disorderly conduct and resisting a peace officer after allegedly removing campaign literature from car windows.
Murray was the arresting officer in that case, Ireland said.
"He was the officer in charge of the scene and he was the highest-ranking officer that was there," Ireland said. "He actually came to the scene and gave directions and told folks what to do."
He also questioned how Murray could be hired, promoted from captain to deputy chief and allowed to make arrests without the proper protocol.
"What kind of a mayor do we have who would not properly put people in place, (but instead get) people who do not have the qualifications and the training?" Ireland asked. "Not only are people at risk, but our village (is at risk) because you're talking potential lawsuits.
"In my mind, it speaks to the integrity of the mayor -- is he really looking out for our best interests? Or is he asleep on the job?"
Mayor Frank Pasquale said he knew that Murray did not have the proper qualifications with the ILETSB to make arrests and that neither he nor Pierce were on the department's official roster.
"We're aware of it," Pasquale said.
He added that both men appeared to have the proper experience for their posts.
"Their background, I thought, was quite impressive," Pasquale said.

Philly Lawyer/Journalist Honors Cops - Christine M. Flowers! Chicago Lawyers and News Hacks Sully Cops - How About a Switch, Philly?

There must be something to that idea of a parallel universe. Here in Chicago, citizens are treated to a daily litany of calumnies and charges against the very women and men who put their lives on the line to protect and serve.

The Chicago Sun Times ( and its satellite papers of STNG) and the Chicago Tribune shoo their reporters to The Center for Wrongful Convictions, the MacArthur Center for Justice and the Peoples Law Office for cookie -cutter feel good stories that uplift the hearts of people who live far,far from crime and those who commit the most heinous offenses.

The Path to the Pulitzer is assured by Trust Funded Think Tank Lawyers and 1960's Radicals with law licenses ( they actually did less harm to American society with bombs and bottles back in the day) committed to undermining any and all confidence in the Justice System.

However, in Philadelphia a lawyer and a journalist, Christine M. Flowers, has written many columns in defence of police officers and common sense. Today, Ms. Flowers offers a tribute to four police officers killed in the line of duty since May 2008 - this is Phildelphia's bloodiest year for Law Enforcement personnel since 1996.

In the City of Brotherly Love and where G. Flint Taylor screamed Free Mumia - a convicted cop killer and Boutique Bolshevik hero, Christine Flowers - did I mention that she was both a lawyer and journalist?- puts the human face on the victims of murder who happen to be Police Officers.

2008 has been the most dangerous year for Philadelphia officers since 1996, when four were killed. A prayer to Michael the Archangel, patron of police, that we don't break the record.

And even though each death is different, some brutal assassinations, others reckless accidents, the effect is the same: overwhelming grief, followed by uncontained anger.

And it's a different sort of anger from when civilians die.

Yes, it's an ugly aspect of nature that innocent children should be caught in a drug cross-fire on their way to school.

It pierces the heart when elderly women are raped in their bedrooms by teen intruders, when retired army vets are bludgeoned to death in their living rooms, when young mothers are murdered by the fathers of their babies.


IT'S A MISERABLE world in which such things not only happen but become commonplace. And Philadelphia is a part of that world.

But there's something surpassingly sad when you see men and women grouped at the entrance of a hospital, tears in their eyes for a stricken comrade. The grief that accompanies the coffin of a fallen officer is unlike any other because the occupant of that coffin met death on our behalf.

And the symbolism of a rider-less horse following close behind reminds us that - for a moment at least - the city is defenseless.

Of course, that's only a brief illusion. For every officer who falls in the line of duty there are hundreds more ready to take his or her place in the thin blue line. While no one can replace the one who has been taken, the obligation is picked up by brothers and sisters, an unbroken continuum of faith and service.

We saw it with Timothy Simpson. Stephen Liczbinski's friend took the murdered officer's handcuffs and placed them on his accused assassin's wrist when he was apprehended back in May. Simpson honored that debt. Now, tragically, he and Liczbinski are together again.

Some people complain about the attention given when an officer is slain.

Some judges think we should not elevate their deaths above "the rest of us," those without the bulletproof vests and the shields. Some citizens think that color excuses criminality, or that poverty is an explanation for antisocial behavior, or that grief is misplaced for those who willingly enter a dangerous profession.

These sentiments are heard in the streets, seen in the courtrooms, read on the letters page.

But they are wrong. Decent people understand it. The rest are irrelevant.

Four officers won't see the New Year. Four men and women have made the ultimate sacrifice for a city and a system that often seems to care more about rehabilitating criminals than honoring heroes.

And still, they keep answering the call.

No greater love. *

Ms. Flowers writes for the Philadelphia Daily News.

In the City of Big Shoulders and Pencil-Neck Media Stooges, who get spoon fed their investigative work into 'systemic racism, brutality and corruption'sagas by the very lawyers making millions of dollars out of lawsuits against the City of Chicago, police officers are fair game and objects of continual scorn and ridicule - Neil Steinberg went so far as to smear a whole neighborhood that is home to hundreds of the men and women who protect Neil Steinberg before he gets on the Metra to his lily white suburb, as a Nazi enclave.

I'd trade a fistful of cop-hating Media stooges for one Christine M. Flowers.

Thug Comfort Zone - Media, Lawyers and Thugs, LLC.

Newsman, Academic and Celebrated Radical Joe Goebbels gave us a real Thug Comfort Zone - It was in All The Newspapers. Once Confidence in Law and Justice gets Undermined - It's Easy!


'At times, the sole point seems to be avoiding the truth.'

That was the only correct - if not honest - part of the Chicago Tribune Editorial Board's justification of the smear series crafted by Steve Mills and his band of sycophants. Steve Mills's team make that point - avoiding the truth. Radical thinking sells papers. It seems odd that this paper's Editorial Board wants to league up with some real bad actors. I'm just a guy who reads the news and it would seem to me that any paper would want to help make this city safer by helping Police find murderers and not enrich lawsuit lawyers. But that's just me. Maybe they will wake up.

Steve Mills has made a career of being spoon fed stories and 'series' like this latest spoiled tripe out of hand by the likes of Bernardine Dohrn Ayers, G. Flint Taylor, Jon Loevy, Locke Bowman and the think tanks fueled by left-wing philanthropists. They are - it seems - a 'criminal' enterprise; it seems to me - a 501(c)3 funded charity pool of gelt feeding an overtly radical political agenda really should be given a stern look by a serious journalist. Where is RICO when you need him?

In Life's Ironic spin, Steve Mills and the MacArthur Center for Justice (MCJ) - 'Investigative Steve,' doing the scribbling and sanctimony, while the 501 (c) 3 salaried political lawyers at MCJ doled out eye droppers of tips at a time and 'solid' allegations by the pocketful - had their collective asses handed to them a few years ago when a jury tossed the charges of 'institutionalized beatings' at Cook County Jail in twenty minutes. Quicker than it takes a glutton to put away his lunch.

The Chicago Tribune Editorial Board is beating its avian chest over this new 'hard-hitting' bowl of tripe served up by the very same folks. Police Abuse allegations -real and imagined are here to stay, until the paper gets more cancellations than the Sun Times.

That is not important. What is important to all Chicagoans is the Thug Comfort Zone created by this radical leftist and cynically short-sighted agenda. The most vicious and well-armed killers in this City act without fear - they murder with impunity; safe in the knowledge that any Police interdiction will be met with howls in the press and sanctimonious hypocrisy from the ususual suburban TV newscasters.

This Confederacy of Louses is as complicit in the deaths of two fine young men - Jason Riley and Steve Lyons - both black, both male, both productive citizens and both murdered in this Thug Comfort Zone - as the gang-bangers throwing the shots.

These same Chicago Editorial Boards that screamed for Justice for the Willis children in the George Ryan Trial can now worm and squirm when some citizens - some victims' families come looking for that same Justice.
