Pretty much sums up my view of it!
Could be, Johnson messed up at the perfect time for LL. The part about LL not wanting to disclose details in respect to his wife and kids. First thing I thought of was he was messing around with another woman. Maybe that is the reason he dismissed his driver.
Cause he thought he was above the law. After all he was the leader of the JBTs. He dont need no one telling him what to do, when to do it or with how to do it.
Think of that movie training days.
"I'm the f... police!" Is what actor tells those in the hood when they complain.
Just might affect his overall monthly check.
He was planning on leaving at end of year I think.
So his retirement check would have been based on x years and y months. Now it will be x years and a months (a little less) so his check may be a few dollars smaller based on his time in.

A lot of people think that if an officer gets fired, then he should forfeit his pension. I think they might be thinking along the lines of what happens to military guys, and forgetting that the military can only do that as a form of judicial punishment, which when an officer is fired, isn't near the same.
That female was part of his security detail.
Meaning he was her immediate boss.
Suspect the video footage will show more then just drinks occured between the two of them.
Let's see
Drinking while on the job
Intoxicated and trying to drive
Having an inappropriate relationship with someone you supervise.
If he was already eligible to draw the pension, getting fired less than a month before he was planning on retiring should have little-to-no impact on that pension. However, police pensions, like salaries, vary wildly state-to-state and city-to-city.
Not suprised.
[h=1]Multiple CPD employees under investigation for allegedly covering up Eddie Johnson’s indiscretions[/h]
Multiple Chicago police employees are under investigation for allegedly engaging in a widespread cover-up to protect then-Supt. Eddie Johnson and conceal the circumstances surrounding an Oct. 17 drinking and driving incident that Mayor Lori Lightfoot says Johnson lied about, prompting her to fire him weeks before his retirement.
Johnson was found slumped over in his police SUV at around 12:30 a.m. that day, near the 3400 block of South Aberdeen — after dismissing his driver and trying to drive himself home.
The alleged cover-up took place “that night and the next day” and could end up being “even worse than” the incident itself, said a source familiar with Inspector General Joseph Ferguson’s ongoing investigation.
That’s saying something, considering new details obtained by the Chicago Sun-Times.
[h=4]Not just ‘dinner with friends’[/h]Rather than having “a couple of drinks” during a “dinner with friends,” as Johnson told the mayor, sources said the now-former superintendent spent three hours drinking at Ceres Cafe — a restaurant known for pouring large drinks to patrons from the nearby Chicago Board of Trade — with a woman whom he had promoted to his security detail shortly after becoming the city’s top cop.
Sources said Johnson and the woman, who has since been reassigned to another job in the police department, are seen on restaurant video kissing repeatedly.
The woman has been interviewed by the inspector general’s office. Sources said she acknowledged drinking with Johnson for hours before Johnson was found in his SUV. But she also said they only were friends.
The woman also told investigators that both she and Johnson have troubled marriages and that they frequently talk to each other. Records show she filed for divorce from her husband in 2018. She did not return messages seeking comment Tuesday.
Johnson has not been questioned by the inspector general as part of the investigation. Sources said he put off at least two attempts to interview him.
Johnson has declined to comment to the Sun-Times. In a prepared statement to all news media, he said he did not “intentionally mislead or deceive the mayor or the people” of Chicago.
“I acknowledge that I made a poor decision and had a lapse of judgement on the night of Oct. 16. That was a mistake and I know that. However, I have no interest in fighting a battle for my reputation with those that want to question it now,” Johnson is quoted as saying. “Reputations are not built in a day and not damaged in a day, either. They are the result of years of living. We reap what we sow in this world. I will simply rely on the reputation for integrity that I think I have earned during my long career with the faith that we should all be judged by the entirety of our lives and not on what happened on our worst days.”
[h=4]Multiple restaurants involved[/h]Johnson’s visit was discussed at length Tuesday at Ceres Cafe, where one bar regular, Alex, who declined to give his last name, said he saw Johnson seated in a booth on the north wall on the night in question.
A security guard in the Board of Trade building, where Ceres is located, said security footage of Johnson arriving and leaving had been subpoenaed by Ferguson’s office.
Sources told the Sun-Times that, along with Ceres Cafe, Johnson also visited Volare, an Italian restaurant in Streeterville.
The owner of Volare, Benny Siddu, declined to comment on Johnson’s visit, citing advice of his attorney.
At some point later that evening, Johnson got behind the wheel of his police SUV and drove to police headquarters, where he dropped off the woman, sources said.
He then attempted to drive to his Bridgeport home but was apparently unable to continue.
Both police and Chicago Fire Department personnel responded to a 911 call of a parked vehicle near 34th Place and Aberdeen Street. The SUV had the engine running with Johnson fast asleep inside for quite a while before police and the fire department responded, sources said.
Bodycam and dashcam video of the police response show officers engaging in conversation with Johnson, but only briefly after the superintendent displays his badge, sources said.
Responding officers essentially asked the top cop, “Are you OK?” When Johnson replied, “I’m OK,” the officers can be heard telling him to have a good night.
Johnson was then allowed to drive home without a sobriety test that would normally be required for any other motorist found in a similar situation.
Johnson initially blamed a change in his blood pressure medication and his failure to fill the replacement prescription.
But the mayor accused him of concocting a false narrative to conceal the embarrassing circumstances surrounding the incident, then “lying” to her when she questioned his version of events.
While investigating the failure to administer the sobriety test and whether rules were bent to protect the boss, sources said Ferguson found evidence of a cover-up by others in the police department. Freedom of Information requests for bodycam video of the incident have been denied pending the outcome of Ferguson’s investigation.
[h=4]Still on payroll, but not as superintendent[/h]Although he has been fired as Chicago’s $260,044-a-year police superintendent, Johnson is not yet off the police payroll. He has returned to his career service rank of lieutenant.
The question now is whether he will be allowed to remain in that position or whether the mayor will demand his resignation — or move to fire him if he refuses to quit.
In announcing Johnson’s termination on Monday, Lightfoot said Ferguson’s investigation “as to others” involved in the incident remains ongoing. “While at some point, the inspector general’s report may become public and those details may be revealed, I don’t think it’s appropriate or fair to Mr. Johnson’s wife or children to do so at this time,” she said.
During a news conference at police headquarters Tuesday to announce gun and drug arrests, Interim Superintendent Charlie Beck was asked to comment on the allegations that Johnson was seen drinking for hours with a woman.
“None of us are perfect. Everybody makes mistakes. But we have to live with that. We have to live with our errors,” Beck said.
“Two things are important to me in policing. Well, actually three things. One is public trust. One is police accountability. And the third is police effectiveness.”

https://chicagocrusader.com/the-racy-untold-story-of-eddie-johnson/ In all the other accounts of the evening I have read Johnson dropped the girl off at PD headquarters and was on his way home alone. This is very different and opens up a lot of new questions, first and foremost being , Why would she be going home with him if is wife was there?
Hum.. did you read the article?
The former chicago police super had been separated from his wife for since at least 2017. Sources say they live separate lives. They probably do not even live together.
From this article the female on his security detail was giving him oral sex in the cop car when they got busted by some street cops. He flashed his badge and drove off.
My guess is that is when he dropped her off back at hq and then decided to drive to his house but never made it.

So this highly morale dude wouldn’t meet with President DJT because of the “values” of Chicago?
