Im new to BL but have been lurking mainly in the Chicago heroin thread. I like to hear the updates and experiences on copping experiences. Its good to know how it is out there (mainly west side).

Ive been copping for a while on the WS, mainly for weed. Earlier this year it was automatic...in and out in <10min even if cpd was around at my preferred spot. Over the last couple months shit has gotten crazy. Got pulled over recently but luckily i hadnt found anything yet, so they turned me loose. Being a lawyer helps if i get pulled overbut it also seems to get me pulled over too(white guy deessed up) so anyway...Lets hear it Chitown and keep our ears to these streets.
 
So b4 anyone asks why i would risk copping in the hood for weed..well...1) my favorite has bomb ass weed and 2) i f'ing hate waiting for phone connects 3) when everything goes as planned it's just so damn convenient (like McDonalds)
 
Also, why doesnt CPD ask to search? They just fukcing do it...i dont see how that kind of search would hold up in court..anyone have this happen and get arrested? Do they just lie and say u consented if they find something?
 
Why doesnt cpd ask to search? Man.. you GOTTA be new to coppin on the west side.. YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS ON THE WEST SIDE OF CHICAGO. Yes, theyll lie.. or just jam you up cause FUCK YOU (Seriously, that is the mentality of some of these narcos)
 
Thx OG...i figured that but still thatz F'd up. Being a white dude i guess im used to being fukced gently by the opps. not cpd they threw my ass up against the car like it was nothin
 
Cops HATE lawyers right from the jump, so don't be surprised at anything they might do if you get pulled over and let them discover your profession. Some cops might just find a bundle under the seat or on your person if you cracked wise with one.

I am fighting the urge to cop over there because various threads on BL have convinced me that sooner or later this will go wrong. It's not that I don't have plenty of experience cold copping - I did it a few times a week for more than a year on the LES of New York City in the late 80s. I did finally get cracked for possession and, initially, attempted murder of a NYC police officer. That latter charge was complete bullshit and was dropped pretty quick, but it earned me a two day stay in the tombs waiting to be arraigned. BTW - don't catch a charge of attempted murder of a cop unless you are willing to take a beating. I was tuned up twice while in custody by cops. Also they threw me, a white guy, in a holding cell with 60 black and Spanish men. Not one other white guy in that cell, so that wasn't great either.

My point is that the West side of Chicago seems like a bigger risk than Alphabet City in the late 80s, because white people had legitimate business there. White people rarely have legit business on the West side, so unless you have a real urge to check out 26th and California while flushing your career down the toilet at the same time, I suggest you get used to waiting for a phone connect to deliver your bud.

Just my .02. Good luck.
 
...and while we are discussing this issue...are you aware that one can be charged with ATTEMPTED possession in Chicago? I don't know WTF all that goes in to that charge, but it exists and is used sometimes when they pull you over and don't find anything. For all I know they can take your car on that one, too. Don't know what would happen to your career if convicted, counselor.
 
Smudgey...your story bout nyc is crazy glad u got out of the charge at least..i think ur right bout getting caught eventually. Over a long enough timeline...although ive been 100% successful during daytime and about 50% late at night (middlemen necessary and they jack my $ about half the ti me, even when i put an incentive on it for tthem)

no they didnt know i was a lawyer thats the second to last thing i would admit to (first being that im holding obvs).

Anyway dont want this to be aboutme Just want a place to collect up to date copping atmosphere and experiences...its such rush i think thats half of the reason i do it.
 
You WILL get caught on the west side, its a matter of if you've copped yet/if you ate it in time.
 
Thanks for the support regarding that trumped up attempted murder charge, 4059. Although it is ancient history and not even in the same city, I think it is illustrative of the risks involved in cold copping. FWIW - all I did was drive about 6 inches after the cop ordered me to stop and interpreted that as an attempt to run him over. I explained this to my public defender at the arraignment and the hot shot criminal lawyer I retained in NYC and neither was the least bit surprised at the charge. They had seen it all before many times. Hell, the judge at arraignment sort of smirked when he heard the charge and without even asking the details of the "attempted murder" very succinctly asked the ADA, "was anyone hurt?" The ADA couldn't even look at the judge when he had to say, "no." The point is these things can escalate very quickly.

Here is another true story about a friend who bought several foreclosed houses on the WS in the last couple of years. He rehabs these houses and collects Section 8 payments from the renters. He hopes to the sell the house at a good profit in several years. He told me that that he was stopped in his pickup truck loaded with tools A FEW TIMES A WEEK FOR SEVERAL MONTHS and was tossed hard many times by marked and undercover cops despite being able to tell a true story in a calm way because he was never dirty. It only stopped when he became well known in the area after being stopped so many times.

And thanks, OG. I need to hear this because I can tell myself any old line of bullshit to get myself down there doing something stupid.
 
Now that i hear this talk bout the opps planting shit on u...that makes me really nervous b/c i shouldnt be down there in the first place...so how would my defense go...well hes been stopped in these areas b4 and has no valid excuse for being there so...my word vs. cpd - I cant see that going in my favor
 
I think that CPD planting drugs on you is a very unlikely scenario, 4059, but they have already shown you that they have no trouble at all pulling you over for the crime of driving while white on the WS and performing an illegal search. Test them at your peril.

not as unlikely as you think.. sadly.. also most cops dont really give a fck about weed.. if you are honest with him and be respectful and you don't look like a typical junky .. they usually let you go... as long as they belive you.. i mean you can't feed them that line if you got 2 or 3 dope charges on your record or someshit... also rare but a couple times the cops let me and my boy go, cause we were honest. and even one time about 5 yrs ago they let us keep the dope.. all we had to do is go buy a couple more bags and tell them where and who was selling it.. thought it was a bit sketchy but i really didnt have a choice. the cop actually held my drivers licence till we came back.. we never hardly shoped there so we didnt care. and we made half the story up, with false details and it wasnt like they came flying in on the d boys rite after we scored so it was all good




also good weed is everywhere nowadays.. to me it wouldn't be worth it nomater how good it is
 
Cold-copping WEED? And on the West Side of Chicago none-the-less? (This would be a different story if you were cold-copping in Europe or more lenient jurisdictions, but the West Side is not one of those places). Are you serious? In this day and age, there is absolutely NO reason to be doing that. I'm sure you could find at least 3 reputable, non-sketchy, dealers (who lack the affiliation of some violent gang) just by making a few friends and talking to people. Expand your social circle and you will find plenty of weed in no time.

It's just so not worth it. If you're going to do that you should always be on foot. Park your car within walking distance of your spot, or take the bus. Getting caught in your car means they impound your car and it costs something like $1,000 to get it out. Second time they catch you in that area again (I'm not 100% sure what the laws are, but I know they can take the car if they find you in possession or with paraphernalia, BUT they might also be able to take the car with just "reasonable cause" because they found inconsistencies with your story or were pissed that they knew you were down there to cop, but couldn't find anything on you) the impound fee INCREASED, and there may be additional penalties, I'm not sure. You know what they do the third time they catch you? They take your fucking car. And you can't pay to get it back. They just straight-up repossess your vehicle and then sell it at police auction. If you're a lawyer driving around in an $80,000 Lexus, that might seem pretty ridiculous to lose that car just for 3 times getting caught with paraphernalia. But to someone driving around in a $1.500 15=year old piece of junk, maybe the LOSING YOUR CAR FOREVER part isn't as big of a deterrent to them.

ALSO, YOU'RE A LAWYER. Possession/paraphernalia charges could really hurt your career. Not worth risking it for the "adrenaline rush" of copping weed in a sketchy situation; a situation in which, statistically speaking, over enough trips over a long enough time period, 99% eventually get caught in some way.

If in the future the day comes that you need access to harder drugs, maybe you won't know where to pickup from any legitimate friend-of-a-friend source, and in that scenario, you end up having to cold-cop on the streets. But if you're only buying weed, the most easily accessible narcotic in the world, you should be doing it in a way that is of the least risk to you. There's just no sense in gambling over something so stupid.
 
Yeah i get it; it's idiotic, irrational, etc. Thanks for the advice but not really looking for it.

So anyone been coppin lately? From Clearmap data it looks like theyre bustin the H more than anything else lately...
 
I've tried cold coppin a few times for blows but only had luck once (ws everytime) and the only time it worked I had a dude walk me over. I don't have any connects since I moved up recently so shit sucks.

Ask a real lawyer. Come on you can't even spell.
 
Chitown4059 - I have a story that I'd like to share with you. First of all, both of my parents are attorneys. My dad, who is a criminal defense attorney, told me that in the 80s, before I was born, his car was stolen from outside a gas station in Evanston. The police caught the guy a few blocks away, red handed. They told my dad they had caught the guy and asked him to come down to the station to I.D. the guy. They had a lineup with a few guys who were innocent. Before my dad went into the room, the cop was sure to tell him, "He's number 2."

Cops, and not just in this city, -- everywhere -- are human beings. They have feelings and emotions and families just like we do. Some of them hate their job, some of them love it - just like we do. Some of them have served their country in the armed forces, some of them have been spoon-fed by their cop father, grandpa, and great grandpa. In the end, human beings like short cuts. We tend to 'work smarter, not harder'. We have processes, and we will naturally take the route of least resistance. If we can cut a few steps out of a process and make it a little bit quicker while still achieving the same result, why not do it?

The key here is that, at least for police, the result is not the same. In fact, if the people that they arrest hire attorneys they will likely get the case thrown out if it wasn't handled properly -- according to 'standard'. However, there are the clients that don't hire the attorney. There are the clients who have been arrested for similar offenses so often that their wrap sheet reads more like a book than a resume.

I thought the number one rule with drug addicts was not snitching.

I'm closing this nonsense, there's already a Chicago thread. You aren't a lawyer.
