On 06 Feb 2023, the above officer’s responded to a Criminal Sexual Assault call. Officers found that there was a 12 year old female that had been sexually assaulted by an offender that was still on scene. The Officers placed the offender into custody and processed accordingly. It was learned that the minor had met the adult offender online. The offender subsequently made admissions to sexually assaulting the minor child on numerous occasions and was charged with Predatory Criminal Assault of a child. The above officer’s deduction has helped take a child predator off the streets of Chicago. Thanks for a job well done!

Bank the Blue is a non-profit organization that focuses on Mental Health and Wellness for Law Enforcement Officers. (Please see Banktheblue.com)
I have volunteered to coordinate their Ambassador Training.
Ambassadors must be retired officers.
Ambassadors will be trained to represent Bank the Blue and the programs that they sponsor such as a 24-7 crisis line specifically for Law Enforcement Officers.
Ambassadors will help end the stigma of mental health and provide officers with resources sponsored by Bank the Blue.
There will be an ambassador training on March 1 at 1000 hours at 1011 Touhy in Des Plaines, Illinois.
Ambassador Program Training will consist of:
Training which will familiarize participants with the Bank the Blue Mission.
Training which will provide participants with the confidence to engage in public speaking.
Training which will teach the participants to be active listeners.
Training which will provide the participants with the basic knowledge of recognizing common Psychological Disorders which may affect officers.
Training which will teach participants to be a conscientious confidential resource for officers. Lastly training will talk about the importance of self-care.
If anyone is interested in the training to become an Ambassador, please contact me at Patty@BanktheBlue.org
Respectfully,
Patty Casey
