CHICAGO (CBS) – For three years, Chicago Police officer Erin Kreho has documented filthy conditions inside rooms she was told to use when she needed to pump breast milk. She faced unsanitary conditions and a lack of privacy after having her children. Kreho also has filed formal complaints about the state and federal violations. Despite that, she says the Chicago Police Department has failed to fix the problems.

“It shouldn’t involve cleaning a room or asking to use a place that your coworkers can’t see you… in a state of undress,” said Kreho. “Or worrying about the contaminants that are, you know, obviously falling into the milk.”

Kreho said she would have to use wipes to clean very dirty spaces and chairs she used before pumping.

Kreho has had two children while on the force, but after returning to her job as a Chicago police officer, she faced difficult and degrading challenges to using her breast pump.

“My face was so red the entire time, and I was just crying it was just humiliating,” said Kreho about one of many embarrassing moments, including other officers walking in while she was pumping. “I’d be undressed in front of my coworkers and pumping milk.”

Federal and state statutes require employers to provide lactating women with a clean room to pump with a locking door lock for privacy. It can’t be a bathroom. Kreho says the department, entrusted with upholding the law, has been breaking it. She began collecting evidence, photos and videos to document the poor conditions for the past three years.

“If you wouldn’t have lunch there, I really shouldn’t be pumping milk for a baby and I was,” said Kreho . 

She said she was sent to bathrooms to pump and had to drag in chairs and sit near the outlets she could find.

“I’m putting my bag on the floor. The pump would go on my lap, and yes, I’m very close to a urinal,” said Kreho. “I was frustrated, I was really anxious. I would come home nauseous about it.”

She says her career as a Chicago police officer started off great. Her image was even used on a recruitment poster.

But all that changed when she had a baby in 2020 and returned to work facing problems over where she could pump.

“That was one of the worst times just emotionally for me,” said Kreho. “I was initially told to pump in the backseat of the squad car.”  

She says had to pump in all kinds of unacceptable conditions – in dirty bathrooms, locker, and storage rooms.

She filed two complaints, in 2021, with the Illinois Department of Human Rights. Each one detailed the poor conditions.

“Illinois Department of Human Rights agreed with me on some of the instances of discrimination and disagreed with me on other ones,” said Kreho.

She is not the only one experiencing issues. Jessica Lee, a senior attorney at the Center for WorkLife Law in San Francisco, said Kreho’s case is overwhelmingly common among women working for police and fire departments around the country.

“Since 2022, we found that of all the lactation discrimination cases decided under those federal sex discrimination laws, 41% were from first responders,” said Lee. “So even though only a small segment of the population are woman working in those fields, they really dominate the legal cases, and that’s a terrible trend when these are the people tasked with upholding the law and protecting our communities.”

She says employers in male-dominated industries have been failing to treat women fairly for ages. There have been other similar lawsuits against the Chicago Police Department and Chicago Fire Department, along with police departments in New York, Philadelphia, and New Jersey.

“It’s definitely still a macho culture amongst police officers, firefighters, other first responders,” said Lee. “A lot of women who filed discrimination cases have said they didn’t quite fit in. And as soon as they expressed they needed to go pump milk or were breast feeding, all of a sudden feeling a torrent of harassment.”

Lee reiterated Illinois workers have a right to break time for pumping in clean private spaces that are not bathrooms.

“I did not expect that it would be this hard,” Kreho said about her attempts to get a clean room for pumping. “There have been several occasions that I had to dispose of the milk that I pumped – if the room was particularly dirty.”

She says after her first two complaints, the problem was not getting fixed. She was told to use a filthy storage room. It was filled with discarded office equipment, boxes, and other supplies.

Erin Kreho

It also was covered with white specks of material.

“It was falling from the ceiling. It was all over the room and it was falling continuously,” said Kreho. “Which I worried about contaminating the milk.”

Kreho then filed another complaint this summer. This one is with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). She is frustrated and discouraged about how this is impacting her job and children. She fears retribution too.

“I’ve been treated differently for complaining, I would say for sure,” said Kreho. “It’s really hard to advocate for yourself over, and over, and over again and just not get any result.”

Her complaint triggered a Chicago Police Department Internal Affairs investigation. It was opened in July 2021. Two years later – nothing has happened. Kreho is still waiting to just talk to an investigator.

The Chicago Police Department declined to comment because of pending litigation.

DAVID Bonola, the handyman accused of stabbing Orsolya Gaal, has reportedly made a shocking confession about the murder and given a reason for it.

Newly uncovered court documents show Bonola believed Gaal infected him with HIV and made the claim on March 20.

The night Bonola allegedly stabbed Gaal, he followed her home from a bar after she was watching a show with friends.

“She opened the door and asked me what I was doing there,” he allegedly told investigators, according to New York Post court records.

“I told her I just wanted her to tell me the truth about why she gave me HIV. She said she didn’t have HIV.”

Bonola also claims Gaal cheated on him, the records say.

“She lied to me, she used me. She told me she loves me. She couldn’t be with one person,” he allegedly told investigators.

Bonola claims he and the married woman had an affair for two years.

On the night of the stabbing, Bonola claims Gaal told him their affair was over. She then allegedly grabbed a knife and threatened to kill Bonola if he didn’t leave her house.

“I grabbed the knife and cut her throat,” Bonola reportedly told investigators.

“She kept fighting and we fell. She moved and tried to grab me, so I stabbed her in the neck to stop her attacking me.”

Bonola claims to have cleaned Gaal’s house with towels before dumping her body in her son’s duffel bag and dumped it about a mile from the house, according to the court documents.

He also allegedly dumped Gaal’s laptop in the Hudson River, authorities say.

“In the past she told me that she sent a man to jail, so I sent a message to her husband pretending to be that guy because I was scared,” Bonola reportedly said.

“I took her laptop because she had sex tapes on the laptop. I threw her laptop into the Hudson River where I used to visit her often.”

Bonola, originally from Mexico, was charged with murder, criminal tampering, and criminal possession of weapons in connection with Gaal’s death.

He has pleaded not guilty.

Once the boxes are filled and crammed into car trunks and back seats, the volunteers caravan across San Francisco to make deliveries to expectant and new Black moms.

The “Sunday Show Ups” began at the start of the pandemic when Gebre noticed that few of the Black Patients at her Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital clinic were taking advantage of a pantry a doctor had set up for pregnant patients. Concerned about insufficient outreach to a vulnerable population during an uncertain time, Gebre sought donations on social media for her Black patients and the grassroots effort took off.

“There were disparities in access to masks, access to education and factual information around the pandemic,” Gebre says. “Out of this hard period, we created a space where we can engage in conversations and give back to the community in a positive way.”

The focus on Black women is personal and purposeful: Gebre, 34, was living in a home for single moms more than 15 years ago. She relates to the multitude of challenges her patients face. As a medical professional, she has seen Black women suffer from higher rates of pregnancy-related complications and preterm births even as the city’s Black population dwindles.

In San Francisco, Black families make up half of the city’s maternal deaths and 15% of infant deaths (PDF) despite representing just 4% of all births. City data also shows nearly 14% of Black infants are born prematurely compared with 7.3% of white infants. It’s a cause for alarm because preterm babies are more likely to experience chronic disease, not to mention learning and behavioral difficulties in school.

At first, the donations included masks, hand sanitizer, diapers, children’s books, produce and money. The cash donations allowed Gebre to distribute $200 per woman — no strings attached.

As her network of volunteers grew, so did her reach.

With the help of her most dedicated volunteer Cassandra Perkins —to outreach coordinator for the San Francisco Department of Public Health – they expanded their deliveries to new moms participating in the California Black Infant Health program and pregnant women who are unhoused. They also aligned with several Bay Area initiatives that are trying to address Racial inequalities to improve Black maternal health.

Perkins has spent the last 23 years working in HIV and family planning clinics in the city’s marginalized Black neighborhoods. She has an easy smile and is the kind of person who gives away books, socks and toiletries stashed in her car to give away to people she meets on the street.

She calls the Sunday show-ups her church.

“I look like them so it’s easier for them to relate to me … just to inform, educate and be of service and always treat people with dignity and respect and you get it back tenfold,” Perkins says.

She said after the women leave the hospital and recover at home, many of them miss out on information about services focused on Black women’s health. The home visits are filling a crucial gap in postpartum care and establishes One Love Black Community as a reliable source of information to a community wary of outsiders after experiencing decades of poverty, environmental injustice and racial discrimination.

Bayview-Hunters Point became a Black neighborhood in the 1940s as African Americans from the Gulf Coast migrated to the Bay Area to work at the nearby Navy shipyard. After World War II ended, jobs evaporated. Black people, who were limited in where they could live in San Francisco due to discriminatory housing policy, were left languishing in substandard housing surrounded by pollution left over from the shipyard.

“If they show initiative in how much they care to help you, then that’s the most helpful because they make you want to put more initiative into yourself,” says Charise Haley, who met Perkins when she was living on the streets and pregnant with her now 10-month-old son.

Haley, who continues to cope with losing her partner to suicide, says she’s close to receiving a subsidized apartment.

“Cassandra is one of my favorite people because if it wasn’t for her actually believing in what I can do, I probably wouldn’t be where I am right now,” she says about Perkins.

Haley was among seven women who received deliveries on one Sunday last month.

I ride with Gebre in her SUV that’s cluttered with baby supplies in the back and her half-eaten breakfast in the front. A tireless multitasker, she also finds time to lead Black Centering, a program at UCSF where she organizes nature walks, CPR classes and other community-building activities for expectant Black parents.

Perkins and Katiana Carey-Simms, a midwifery student, follow in two other cars filled with supplies. Meanwhile, Gebre’s son Devin comes along to pack and haul boxes.

We go uphill to an apartment complex overlooking the bay and meet Crystal Hill, who is receiving her first delivery from One Love Black Community. Inside her unit, football plays on the TV while Hill’s 2-month-old boy lays in a baby swing.

Big pots of stew simmer in the kitchen, and the aroma prompts Gebre to offer to sign Hill up for six weeks of meals delivered by Postpartum Justice, an organization that recruits Bay Area restaurants to cook nourishing meals for Black women healing from childbirth.

“I need to start getting healthy because I have high blood pressure and diabetes that stayed with me after [pregnancy],” Hill, 40, tells her.

“This would be a beautiful transition, just having some nice meals and sharing with the family and thinking differently,” Gebre replies.

A short drive later, we stop at the Bayview home of a pregnant woman Perkins recently met while shopping at Safeway. Perkins urges the woman, who declines to be interviewed, to enroll in the Abundant Birth Project because she is in her first trimester and thus eligible. The guaranteed income program gives $1,000 per month to a randomly selected group of Black and Pacific Islander pregnant women who face some of the greatest degrees of income inequality in one of the nation’s most expensive cities.

The experiment is part of a growing number of guaranteed income programs responding to racial and economic inequality by giving unconditional cash directly to people in need. Abundant Birth’s goal is to ease financial stress for these women and improve their health outcome.

Gebre suspended her monthly cash gifts due to tax reasons, but said she’ll resume it as soon as she receives proper fiscal sponsorship.

She estimates 300 women have received deliveries from One Love Black Community in just over two years. This Christmas, she hopes to show up for 100 families with the help of volunteers from a Black sorority.

She recalls the small acts of kindness that made a big difference for her when she was raising Devin in the Santa Cruz area. Once, when she volunteered at a horse ranch so he could get free riding lessons, a woman slipped a surprise in the book Gebre was reading.

“I remember one day I was running out of gas and was like, ‘I don’t know how I’m going to get through this week of school.’ I opened the book and there was $100 in cash in there,” Gebre says. “There were so many moments where my community showed up for me. Little things here and there, but they add up.”

She says she’s driven to give back because of the support she received.

When we reach Sabrina Hall at her home in an industrial part of the Bayview, Gebre and Perkins pitch the postpartum meals and online support group for Black moms facilitated by UC San Francisco.

Hall, 41, says she developed gestational diabetes during pregnancy and suffered nerve damage and other complications after delivering her daughter, Harleigh Quin, three weeks early. The baby weighed just 5 pounds.

The experience was nonetheless an improvement from four previous pregnancies, Hall says. She participated in the guaranteed income study, and says the extra cash helped her buy baby gear and catch up on some bills.

“With my other kids, no one told me about doulas. [There was] just a lack of education,” Hall says. “This birth, I had a doula, I had Black Infant Health — you know, just the support. I had no one to speak for me with the medical office or the staff. And this time I had an advocate.”

Back in the car, Gebre says since the guaranteed income pilot launched two years ago, she noticed patients who receive the money participate more actively in their prenatal care. For example, patients in transitional housing were more likely to find transportation to show up for their appointments.

“I have not met one patient who doesn’t care about their pregnancy or want the best for themselves and their baby, although there are so many factors around them that are influencing their ability to engage or not engage in the kind of quality of care that they want,” she says. “When you’re able to provide additional resources to minimize those stress factors — that burden, that toll is no longer present — you can notice the difference in patients and how they engage in care.”

She drives across a section of the Bay Bridge and exits onto Treasure Island, passing a housing construction project and new ferry terminal. She parks in front of a cluster of townhouses to check on her former patient Danesha Johnson.

“How are you?” Gebre asks while hugging Johnson, who gave birth a month earlier.

“The recovery is fine, no complications. I’m fine,” the 21-year-old says.

When Johnson’s partner, Darrian Burrows, comes out to carry the supplies inside, Gebre tells Perkins that he assisted her in the delivery room and caught his daughter when Johnson made her final push. Perkins remembers seeing him in the hospital when Johnson was in labor, and she’s overcome with emotions.

“That was so beautiful for you to be in the tub with her when she was going through labor to help ease things,” she says as tears fill her eyes.

“You’re giving me the chills because I work in our communities of color and they’re always giving our men a hard time,” Perkins continues. “And some programs, there’s something for the mom and the baby but they don’t want the dad involved. So just to see you all as a couple and loving one another and having a baby brung into this world together …”

Bearing witness to a happy, healthy birth makes her want to keep this thing going, she says.

NEW YORK — It was a crime of passion, two years in the making, against a scandalous backdrop of illicit sex and deceit: A Queens mom and the local handyman were on-and-off lovers until their final, fatal meeting in the basement of her Tudor-style home.

For Orsolya Gaal, 51, there was no inkling of the horrors ahead when she headed into Manhattan for a Lincoln Center show with friends on Good Friday. A neighbor had earlier spotted the hockey mom, whose husband was out of town, frolicking behind her Forest Hills home with the family dog ​​on a sunny spring afternoon.

Gaal later left the younger of their two sons inside their house on Juno Street and boarded a train for her night out, excited about seeing one of her favorite composers perform. The Hungarian immigrant traveled home the same way, arriving around 11:20 pm and stopping at the Forest Hills Station House gastropub for a nightcap — her favorite, a Moscow mule.

She then made the half-mile walk to her home, arriving around 12:20 am on Saturday, April 16, as her youngest child slept upstairs inside the quiet residence.

The sands in the hour glass of Gaal’s life were about to run out.

Ten minutes later, at around 12:30 am, uninvited guest David Bonola, 44, arrived in the darkness at his longtime lover’s home. He knew his way around from prior amorous visits and odd jobs done around the house over the previous two years, and used a spare house key to slip inside on previous occasions, police said.

Gaal was unpleasantly surprised to see Bonola, 44, the divorced father of two, suddenly appearing in the middle of the night. Her husband and their older son were in Oregon on a tour of potential colleges, and the two lovers stood alone before heading down to the basement, officials said.

A note on the family fridge offered a chilling commentary on their failing romance: “GET A NEW HANDYMAN.”

“We went down to the basement to talk, and it turned into an argument,” Bonola later explained to detectives, according to a law enforcement source.

Story continues

The couple’s quarrel quickly escalated into violence, with Bonola ignoring Gaal’s repeated calls to leave before grabbing a steak knife and plunging the blade into the victim over and over and over again, police said.

Gaal’s hands were gashed with defensive injuries from her losing battle for life, with most of her 58 stab wounds inflicted to the neck and upper body, police said.

Bonola stuffed her corpse into a hockey bag belonging to the sleeping boy upstairs.

Four hours elapsed before video collected from the doorbell cameras of neighbors captured the killer dragging the bag with the body down the street, leaving a telltale trail of gore from the home to the spot where Gaal’s body was dumped just outside Forest Park.

Subsequent surveillance video showed Bonola arriving at his home at 6:05 am Saturday, two hours before the victim’s body was discovered by a dog walker in Forest Park.

The gruesome find ignited a full-court law enforcement press as police pieced together the details of the affair and the murder. The duffel bag, authorities later revealed, belonged to the victim’s 13-year-old boy. The teen was initially handcuffed at the family house and led outside as police swarmed the residence on the morning of April 16.

Gaal’s husband, unaware of the carnage back home in Queens, tweeted about his Saturday arrival in Portland, Oregon, with their elder son.

It wasn’t until Wednesday night that police arrested Bonola, whose bandaged hand still bore the wounds of his stabbing spree, authorities said. Bonola claimed the injury came while he was working earlier in the day, but video footage reviewed by detectives showed the cuts occurred before the suspect was taken into custody.

The suspect initially remained calm under police questioning, pushing back against the allegations, according to an NYPD source. Once aware of the damning evidence against him, Bonola matter-of-factly “answered every question,” the source added.

Old Facebook posts detailed the suspected killer’s flirty online compliments to Gaal, with one describing the murder victim as “the most beautiful woman.”

Federal immigration officials also revealed after his arrest that Bonola, a native of Mexico, was living illegally in the city for the last two decades and faced deportation if cleared of the killing.

Antoine Mabrey heard about a free Mother’s Day promotion on the radio when he was home in Hayward, but he kept it to himself when he packed up his wife Alisha and daughters Ari, 6 and Amaya, 3, and drove them to the Golden on Sunday morning Gate Park.

At 9 a.m. they looked at the SkyStar observation wheel, which rose 150 feet into the sky. At this point, Alisha knew that her surprising Mother’s Day present shouldn’t be brunch. It was three trips on the ferris wheel. The tickets were free for mothers, which meant a saving of US $ 18 – “definitely a plus,” said Antoine, not wanting to sound financially motivated on Mother’s Day.

But there were a lot of people because at 9:30 a.m., half an hour before the opening, the line stretched from the ticket office to past the California Academy of Sciences. “I love this thing,” said Erica Spartos, who was there with her daughter Eula, 8.

Spartos admitted that the reason she hadn’t been there was the price. “I think it’s too expensive,” she said, even considering a 15% discount for locals and $ 12 for kids. The trip consists of three full rotations in a closed gondola, which takes about 10 minutes, and that after half an hour of waiting. “It’s starting to spin,” Spartos said as the attraction came to life.

Until then, patience waned. Zion Burdick, 4, had his little brother Maverick, 3, by the hood of his sweatshirt and made a ride of his own by spinning him around in circles. “They’re just alive,” said their mother, Shellie, who shut down the Windsor boys while they left their toddler home with dad, an extra gift.

The SkyStar, owned by a St. Louis-based entertainment company, first arrived in March 2020 as the main attraction for the 150th anniversary of Golden Gate Park on April 4, 2020. The day the wheel joined the skyline was the day of the pandemic stay-home order passed down. The 36 gondolas didn’t make it out of their shipping container until October 21 after the order was canceled, only to close again on November 28 when the virus got caught in a winter flood.

The subsequent reopening on March 4 became controversial when it became known that the Department of Recreation and Parks was looking to extend the original one-year contract by four years. Park purists opposed it, but the expansion was approved after a campaign highlighting the ferris wheel as the engine of economic recovery that could attract tourists and help Richmond District merchants survive the financial struggle of the pandemic.

“It’s ridiculous to fight for a ferris wheel,” said Shellie Burdick. “If we care about things, why don’t we care about climate change?”

The SkyStar spins under the lights day and night, which was another point of criticism. But it was an average of 30,000 passengers a month.

It can run with just six gondolas if there isn’t much demand, with the weather being a deciding factor. On a Sunday, a rainstorm caused an LED light on top of the bike to short-circuit and set off a spark. The people who drove in the six cars were evacuated. Half an hour later, according to the manager, the journey continued without any problems.

Under the sunny Mother’s Day skies, all 36 cars were in operation and the line was moving faster after San Francisco made enough progress against the coronavirus that the ride doesn’t capture the temperatures of all passengers before boarding. They were allowed to go straight to the photo booth that shows the Golden Gate Bridge in the background.

Grant Haggerty, 7, who lives in the Sunset District, was scared to ride it, but once on board with his parents Tom and Alayne Haggerty he was able to enjoy his mother pointing out UCSF Parnassus, where Grant was born. His father pointed to his own birthplace, St. Mary’s Hospital, though that was of limited interest to Grant.

Erica Spartos described the ride as “a complete thrill”. The living green roof of the Academy of Sciences had given it hope against climate change. “It gives you a perspective that you don’t get every day.”

Zion and Maverick Burdick went looking for hot dogs. and Alisha Mabrey left with a cardboard frame that contained photos of her with her husband and daughters, including one that gives the effect of being taken on a skycam while they were in the air.

The framed photos were $ 36.95, which was double the savings on Mother’s Day, but Antoine didn’t want to argue with that. “It was definitely the best Mother’s Day,” said Alisha, “because it was a surprise.”
