Former police officials will all be hired as officers, meaning a former chief would effectively be bumped down to the department’s lowest rank.
The other program creates a system for cops from outside Chicago to join the force "while receiving credit for their law enforcement experience," the department said. Officers who join the force under the so-called lateral hire program must be under 40."These are great opportunities for sworn officers to join or re-join the Chicago Police Department," Interim Supt. Eric Carter said.
Experts say hiring is vital to get the city out from under a federal consent decree mandating sweeping reforms. But this week, former interim Supt. Charlie Beck told the Sun-Times the department really needs to bring in new blood and use its existing resources better.
