Chicago’s Mayor Lightfoot creates a Police crisis, now calls for help.. Sheriff Depts. say NO

Two more Illinois sheriff’s departments have refused to provide assistance to the city of Chicago, as the city faces the potential of a police shortage due to Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s vaccine mandate. 

James Mendrick, the sheriff of DuPage County, Illinois, as well as Kendall County Sheriff Dwight Baird, have both rejected the Illinois Law Enforcement Alarm System’s request for suburban police departments to help the city of Chicago respond to emergencies. 

“It’s like a preplanned police shortage,” DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick, whose department is already dealing with a 12-man shortage, told the Daily Herald. “The lack of logic is the thing that astounds me.” 

Mendrick said that the usual calls for assistance involve SWAT teams, but they could also include patrols, K-9 units, drones, or other assistance. He illustrated his point with an anecdote about the Chicago Bears football team being suspended, and another team playing in their place.

“The players wouldn’t know the coaches or the playbook,” he said, so in the case of an emergency “put [Chicago police] back in the game.”

  1. Good

    Hows that screaming defund the police working now?

    When you push, there is always pushback. Hence that ADULTS don’t get into shoving matches. No one wins!

    Chicago/Baltimore/LA/Oakland/insert others are NOT winners!

    Next!

  2. It’s good to see local le agencies run by responsible Real Americans begin to stand up against the corrupt democrat machine. There will be a lot of innocent victims but let Chicago burn. The blood is on this bitches hands and America needs to see first hand what demonrats do to everything they touch. Oh that’s right- they won’t see it because the media (the propaganda arm of the communist party) will cover it up. Sorry bout your luck Chicago.
