Description
Criminal Justice Committee Meeting 11/13/2020 7:30AM
A
C
D
B
A
Good
morning,
everyone
next
is
the
public
comment
and
I
don't
have
any
notification
of
a
public
comment.
No
one
is
here
in
the
room,
so
we're
gonna
move
on
I'd
like
to
entertain
a
motion
to
approve
all
the
reports:
the
circuit
clerk's
monthly
report,
the
state's
attorney,
the
public,
defender's
probation
and
the
coroner's.
D
E
A
Harold
smith,
thank
you.
Let's
go
to
is
judge
kramer
on
there
somewhere.
I
don't
see
anything
from
judge
kramer.
Let's
go
to
sandy
cianci,
please.
F
F
We
were
about
15
000,
less
la
this
last
month
than
we
were
the
last
year,
but
harrison
harris
has
made
the
effort
to
slow
down
their
collection
efforts
due
to
the
you
know
the
pandemic
and
everything.
So
I
guess
that
isn't
too
terrible,
considering
you
know
the
alternative
and
then,
as
far
as
what
we've
been
turning
over
to
them
in
the
traffic
division,
we
turned
over
1800
tickets.
F
So
you
know
that's
that's
about
nothing
too
unusual
and
then
the
state's
attorney
collection
court
call
that
went
really
well
this
last
month
they
collected
almost
twelve
thousand
dollars.
So
that's
a
good
thing
to
celebrate.
D
F
So
then,
for
computerization,
I
got
a
report
from
both
tyler
technologies
and
court
view.
I
asked
them
what's
what's
the
latest
and
the
result
I
have
is
they've
been
doing
some
testing
of
the
resolution
to
the
last
issue
reported
by
tyler
in
the
certification
testing
and
the
results
have
been
mixed,
they're
having
a
problem
relating
to
the
attorney
identifying
data
being
returned
in
the
filed
responses
and
then
the
resolution
to
how
they're
going
to
fix
that
and
then
once
they
come
up
with
that
then
they're
going
to
resume
testing.
F
A
Any
other
questions
for
sandy.
C
Mr
chairman,
steve
hunter,
mr
hunter
go
ahead.
I
know
this
is
a
very
tenuous
subject,
madam
clerk,
but
I
understand
that
you,
your
part
of
your
workforce,
has
been
inundated
with
respect
to
covet.
C
Have
you
at
any
point
identified
what
the
source
of
it
is
and
what
precautionary
efforts
are
you
going
to
be
taking
to
to
address
that?
I
mean
that's
almost
like
swatting
air,
but
any
any
any
reports
you
can
provide
to
us
regarding
what
transpired
and
and
identify
any
issues
that
you
guys
can
put
your
fingers
on.
F
At
that
point,
the
health
department
said
that
that
was
the
time
frame
that
it
needed
to
be
so
we
closed
the
traffic
department
and
then
my
chief
deputy
and
I
were
the
two
clerks
that
went
to
court,
then
with
the
two
traffic
judges,
and
so
that
we
could
leave
the
floater
clerk
available
for
the
other
courtrooms
if
needed
so
and
then
all
the
people
in
the
main
office
they
picked
up
and
did
all
the
payments.
I
mean
there
was
very
very
little
that
wasn't
completed.
F
So
I
am
very
proud
of
my
departments
for
picking
up
and
carrying
on
had
the
reverse
happened.
I
don't
know
that
we
would
have
been
able
to
carry
on
because
you
know
the
traffic
department
doesn't
know
how
to
work
in
the
main
office.
So
so
now
we're
back
on
track.
We
have
another
one
that
tested
positive
and
we
were
advised
of
that
yesterday.
F
F
Well,
I
only
printed
off
one
of
them
the
administrative
order
for
the
traffic
and
criminal
courts.
Everything
is
continued
on
jim
roh
did
the
schedule,
so
we
have
it
all
figured
out.
So
if
you
have
court
on
say
monday
november
23rd,
then
the
next
court
date
that
you
would
be
expected
to
be
in
the
courthouse
unless
another
pandemic
issue
extends
it
out
would
be
thursday
february
18th.
F
So
we
have
that
all
planned
out.
My
clerks
have
to
do
the
continuance
minutes
on
the
file,
just
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we
can
keep
up
with
tracking
what's
going
on,
so
we
don't
lose
any
files
in
the.
In
the
midst
of
all
of
that,
I
have
one
clerk
that
is
going
home.
F
Testing
out,
the
chief
judge's
clerk
she's
got
a
laptop
she's,
going.
They
do
most
of
their
stuff
through
zoom
anyway.
F
So
we're
testing
that
out
with
her,
I
have
a
few
laptops
that
I'll
be
able
to
send
people
home,
possibly
so
that
the
courts
won't
slow
down
too
much
we're
still
very
paper
based.
So
that's
going
to
be
a
work
in
progress,
I
can't
I
I
won't
send
any
of
the
files
home
with
people.
I
don't
want
them
to
get
lost.
I
want
them
to
stay
in
the
building,
so
we're
going
to
work
through
that,
but
we're
you
know
we're
cleaning
up.
You
know
sanitizing
the
areas
and
doing
what
we
need
to
do.
F
So.
Is
that
into
your
question.
C
Well,
you
know
I
I
wasn't
accused
or
anything
I
was
just.
I
was
just
glad
to
hear
that
proactive
and
pragmatic
steps
are
being
taken
to
to
address
that.
That's
very
serious.
You
know
you
know
I
can
relate
to
that.
I
have
friends
who
have
passed
and
succumbed
to
that
stuff
and
it's
nothing
to
play
with,
and
evidently
you
you
have
some
kind
of
plan
of
action
to
to
address
and
make
sure
that
the
delivery
of
services
are
continued.
F
Yeah
and
then
I
also
have
a
meeting
with
the
union
business
agent,
I'm
not
sure
what
his
title
is
at
noon
today
with
our
union
president
just
to
make
sure
that
we're
all
on
the
same
page
with
how
we're
going
to
move
forward.
As
you
know,
this
increases,
I
immediately
had
an
agreement
made
with
them
right
away
in
march
and
a
memorandum
of
understanding,
so
we
got
that
all
cleared
up
and
set
out.
You
know
so
that
we
have,
but
I
think
it
just
changes
as
this
whole
pandemic
moves
around
think.
F
You
know
things
change,
so
we're
updating
that.
Probably
today.
F
F
A
Your
people
have
a
you,
and
your
people
have
a
good
handle
on
that.
Any
other
questions
for
sandy.
G
Just
one
sandy
I
want
to
know-
and
I
guess
it's
it's
across
the
field
for
all
department
heads
that
have
employees,
but
if
they
are
upon
a
covet
19
leave
is
that
the
rule
is
still
in
place
that
they're
sick.
They
don't
have
to
use
their
sick
time
or
anything,
but
that
it
just
covered
up
on
the
cobot
relief
plan.
F
Yes,
I
have
that's
part
of
our
memorandum
of
understanding
so
like
because
I
closed
the
office.
You
know
that's
one
set
of
time
that
we're
using
so
they
have
not
lost
any
of
their
own
personal
time
over
that
the
70
hours.
F
You
know
the
government
gave
80
hours,
but
our
typical
work
week
is
only
35
hours,
so
our
80
hours
is
really
70
hours,
and
so
everybody
gets
that
first
swing
at
that
and
then
we
haven't
had
everybody
take
advantage
of
that
yet
knock
on
wood
and
then
there's
the
opportunity
for
the
covet
version
of
the
fmla.
F
G
Should
it
help
when
I
believe
I
read
where
the
judges,
the
chief
judge,
is
kind
of
limit,
the
the
the
the
crowd
into
the
courthouse
until
this
epidemic,
so
it
might
that
should
kind
of
help
somewhat.
Unfortunately,
there's
that
just
been
is
rising,
but
it
looks
like
there
is
a
some
vaccine
on
the
way,
but
until
that
particular
point,
I'm
hoping
that
this
relaxed
time
will
give
you
opportunity
to
where
was
it
won't
be
a
congestion
upon
your
office?
G
You
know
with
what
the
necessary
congestion
would
be
had
that
not
been
played
put
in
place.
A
Thank
you,
mr
snipes.
Any
other
questions
for
sandy
any
from
the
room.
Very
good.
We're
gonna,
move,
we're
gonna
move
on
here
state's
attorney's
report.
Mr
rowe,
are
you
on
there.
H
Yes,
chairman,
thank
you.
I
want
to
thank
wes
and
his
crew
and
maintenance
for
keeping
everything
clean
or
keeping
up
with
the
regular
duties
of
the
county
maintenance
department.
Plus,
you
know
daily
cleaning.
I
know
the
courthouse,
I'm
sure
a
lot
over
in
county
building
too.
So
thank
you
to
those
guys
for
their
work.
H
We
had
one
grand
jury
in
late
october
since
our
last
meeting
and
that
added
about
51
felonies
to
the
tally.
So
we
were
at
6
32
last
time
we're
up
to
about
683
and
let's
give
or
take
a
few,
because
sometimes
we
file
them
in
court
as
opposed
to
going
and
doing
a
direct
at
grand
jury,
so
that
number
may
fluctuate
a
little
bit.
We've
got
one
more
grand
jury
this
month
and
then
one
in
december
to
close
out
the
year,
we're
gonna
probably
stay
at
least
for
the
first
quarter.
H
H
We
may
just
look
to
start
earlier,
so
we
can
put
more
cases
on
the
call
and
it
might
be
a
little
bit
longer
day
for
the
grand
jurors,
but
ultimately
they're
only
having
to
come
once
a
month
as
opposed
to
every
other
week.
So
those
are
just
some
of
our
plans
going
forward.
Unfortunately,
you
know
aggravated
domestic
cases
continue
to
lead
the
pack
and
that's
disappointing
for
a
county
our
size.
H
I
think
our
domestic
violence
problem
is
enormous
and
for
those
ag
domestics
you're
talking
about
strangulation
cases
repeat
offenders
bodily
harm,
so
those
are
concerning.
C
Yeah
do
mr
chairman,
mr
hunter:
go
ahead,
yeah.
You
know
that
that's
really
catastrophic,
mr
rowe,
when
you
think
in
terms
of
that,
let
me
just
throw
this
out
here
as
a
trial.
Balloon,
do
you
think
you
know
per
capita
when
you
think
in
terms
of
our
county's
population,
the
numbers
that
you
said
are
amazing.
C
Do
you
think
the
stress
of
colvin
has
had
an
impact
on
that?
At
all
I
mean
I,
I
know
you're,
not
a
scientist
but
or
a
psychiatrist
or
a
psychologist.
C
H
I
just
know
from
data
that
we
saw
come
through
harbor
house
when
we
first
had
the
shutdown
it
was
middle
of
march.
It
seemed
to
be
a
honeymoo
moon
period.
We
were
all
waiting
for
the
uptick
in
calls
to
the
hotline
and
they
didn't
come
and
then
shortly
after
that,
you
know
into
may
or
april
may
and
since
the
numbers
have
really
gone
up
substantially.
H
So
I'm
sure
it's
had
some
impact.
I
don't
know
what
impact,
but
it
hasn't
been
positive.
A
Mr
mr
snipes
I'll
recognize
you,
but
you
need
to
wait
your
turn.
Okay,
go
ahead,.
G
Okay,
the
well
you
guys
if
there
was
any
other
questions.
That's
why
I
say
mr
rowe,
I
have
one.
A
I
just
would
appreciate
it
if
you'd
wait
for
me
to
recognize
you.
We
have
to
see
who's
asking.
G
No
okay!
Well,
that
thing
is
okay.
Go
ahead,
the
I
read
where
the
I
saw,
the
new
cinahl
had
a
little
setback,
but
yet
there
was
some
positives
in
that
that
it
restricted
the
any
type
of
gang
activity,
which
is
something
that's
unique
and
serve
as
a
a
plausible
effort
to
curtail
some
of
the
vines.
G
H
So
anytime,
any
municipality
brings
us
a
property
and
they
want
us
to
look
at
it
for
nuisance
abatement,
whether
it's
gang
nuisance
or
not.
You
know
we
explore
that
and
if
it,
if
it's
there
it's
there,
it
requires
a
certain
number
of
calls
within
a
certain
number
of
days,
whether
you're
going
with
state
or
city
ordinances.
H
So
you
know,
if
the
case
is
there
like
any
criminal
case,
we
would
we
would
pursue
it
in
this
instance,
it's
frustrating
because
we
go
into
court.
We
have
all
the
elements
we
prove
our
case.
The
judge
declares
the
property
a
gang
nuisance
property,
but
there's
a
part
of
the
statute,
and
I
can't
disagree
with
the
judge's
interpretation
of
it.
By
its
plain
language,
it
allows
the
owner
of
the
home
to
post
a
five
thousand
dollar
bond
to
continue
to
remain
in
the
home.
H
This
is
a
unique
situation
because,
in
fact,
the
owner
of
the
home
is
the
nuisance.
She
was
determined
to
be
a
part
of
that
gang
and
that
property
was
deemed
a
gang
nuisance.
So
what
the
law
is
saying
that,
if
your
criminal
enterprise
has
five
thousand
dollars
to
post,
you
can
stay
in
the
house
and
then
we
have
to
wait
for
one
more
incident,
which
is
not
what
any
of
us
want.
H
You
know
that
next
one
could
be
dead,
so
unfortunate
outcome
on
the
remedy
side
of
things,
but
we
were
glad
to
prove
the
case
and
of
course
you
know,
law
enforcement,
I'm
sure
I'll
have
a
watchful
eye
on
that
residence
and
if
there's
a
violation
of
the
terms
of
that
bond,
we'd
certainly
consider
going
back
into
court.
G
And
that's
always
a
good
thing.
My
thing
was,
I
mean
we
took
some
extra
effort
to
get
those
individuals
that
were
going
to
be
witnessed
that
otherwise
would
not
have
to
step
up
to
the
plate
when
we
had
that
one
session
at
the
high
school
and
things
of
that
nature.
So
it's
just
good
to
hear
that
there's
something
positive
versus
just
on
the
other
end
nothing
being
happening,
and
then
they
will
fall
back
into
the
remorse
of.
Why
should
I
become
a
witness?
G
So
thank
you
office
in
into
that,
whoever,
certainly
we
have
to
do
whatever
we
have
to
do
to
curtail
this
violence.
That's
in
our
communities,
but
in
the
case
where
we
were
trying
to
get
witnesses
and
things
it's
kind
of
comforting
to
know
that
they
it
wasn't
a
total
walk
away
and
that
there,
though
it
was
not
a
a
strong
wind,
there
was
some
some
plausible
things
that
came
out
of
it.
H
Yeah,
I
think
when
people
say
that
you
know
they're
a
witness
for
the
state.
We've
heard
that
a
lot
during
this
these
hearings,
you
know,
you're,
not
really
a
witness
for
the
state
you're
a
witness
for
yourself,
your
witness
for
your
family,
your
witness
for
your
community,
because
that
that's
what
we're
trying
to
you
know
to
clean
up
when
we
try
to
eliminate
these
gang
nuisance
properties.
H
So
I
just
hope
people
realize
that
they
did
come
forward
and
we
may
not
have
gotten
the
remedy
that
we
sought,
but
we're
on
our
way.
There
still-
and
you
know
what
they
did-
takes.
A
lot
of
courage
got
to
be
very
brave
to
testify
in
these
type
of
cases,
but
ultimately
they
did
it
for
their
community.
H
So
you
know
hopefully,
hopefully
there
are
no
future
incidents,
but
if
there
is
we'll
swiftly
be
back
in
court-
and
I
did
speak
with
the
state
senator
last
night-
I'm
going
to
soon
speak
with
our
state
representative
and
our
incoming
state
representative
about
a
proposal
to
change
the
language
of
that
ordinance.
At
best
it
should.
It
should
be
at
least
discretionary
for
the
judge
to
determine
whether
the
owner
of
the
property
should
be
allowed
to
post
the
bond
it
shouldn't
be
automatic.
C
Hunter
go
ahead.
Thank
you
very
much,
sir.
I
had
previously
discussed
this
with
state's
attorney
rural.
This
may
be
germaned
to
all
the
county
board
members
in
light
of
what
transpired
the
other
day
at
a
regular
meeting,
but
it
does
involve
the
state's
attorney.
C
C
I
had
referenced
at
that
particular
meeting
that,
when
appointments
regarding
vacancies
on
the
county
board
exist
like
to
see
a
checklist
or
a
sign
off
for
the
county
chairman
as
well
as
well
as
anita
speckman
and
the
state's
attorney,
if
you
have
a
checklist
and
a
sign
off,
we
won't
have
to
go
through
what
we
went
through
tuesday.
So
your
impression,
mr
rowe,
regarding
that
particular
offer.
H
Yeah,
we
can
definitely
put
that
together.
I
would
just
encourage
the
board
to
include
the
county
clerk
in
that
process.
C
Okay,
fine,
we
can
add
that
yeah.
I
would
think
so,
yeah,
okay,
what
do
you
guys
think,
mr
chairman?
What
what
do
you
think
and
I'd
like
to
hear
other
comments
from
other
other
commissioners.
A
You
know,
mr
hunter,
I'm
assuming
that,
having
made
a
mistake
and
discovered
that,
but
escape
that
we'll
probably
figure
out
a
way
to
fix
that
so.
C
I
think
you
know
viable
discussion
like
we're
having
here,
and
I
I
appreciate
you
know
the
candor
of
the
state's
attorney
in
terms
of
promptly
addressing
the
supreme
court
stuff
that
commissioner
snipes
articulated
additionally
that
thing
about
the
nuisance
abatement
situation,
his
response
and
this
meeting
is
live
stream.
It
helps
the
public
as
it
helps
the
commissioners
and
people
in
the
county
or
people
all
over
the
world
who
may
be
watching
this.
C
It
informed
information
is
power
and
it's
understanding-
and
I
was
pleased
that
mr
rowe
took
the
initiative
and
did
what
he
did
and
it
highlighted
some
of
the
horrendous
situations
in
in
the
city
of
kankakee.
C
I
Morning,
can
you
hear
me
we
can
excellent.
Basically,
it
speaks
for
itself.
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
You
have
there's
been
basically
an
informal
covid
protocol
in
place
to
limit
court
appearances
that
I've
been
trying
to
enforce
over
the
last
couple
months.
That's
probably
one
of
the
reasons
why
the
numbers
aren't
where
I
like
them
to
be
as
far
as
actually
processing
cases
and
getting
them
resolved.
I
I
will
say
that,
even
since
monday
of
this
week
and
given
the
holiday,
we
still
had
a
at
least
two
department
of
correction.
Please,
so
those
people
hopefully
will
process
out
of
the
jail.
I
know
we
have
multiple
pleas
jail
please
next
week
also,
so
you
know
that's
kind
of
our
priority
now,
given
the
coveted
reality-
and
we
did
pretty
well
last
time
moving
some
cases
during
covent
custody
cases
and
I
will
definitely
maintain
an
eye
on
what's
going
on
with
our
office.
I
Regarding
that
other
than
that,
you
know.
I
have
no
general
comments
to
make.
If
anyone
has
any
questions
I'll
be
happy
to
talk
about
it.
D
A
J
Everyone
in
regards
to
the
report
you
can
see
we
just
had
a
little
over
2
300
successful
contacts.
Last
month,
185
drug
tests,
118
investigations.
J
We
started
to
climb
up
with
all
that
we're
still
not
where
we
normally
would
be
as
far
as
contacts
and
drug
testing
and
I'm
sure
we're
going
to
pull
back
a
little
bit
over
the
next
couple
months.
Those
numbers
will
fall
a
little
bit
for
november
december.
J
Got
a
plan
in
place.
Keep
monitoring
people
during
this
pandemic
and
those
numbers
will
get
up
and
stay
at
this
point
we'll
get
back
to
normal.
J
Basically,
we
have
zero
devices
on
standby
to
use
right
now,
it's
working
with
the
vendor,
we're
in
contact
with
them
every
day
to
try
to
get
some,
but
obviously
the
gps
devices
are
are
widely
used
right
now
during
this
pandemic,
for
both
juvenile
adult
populations,
an
alternative
to
detention
and
it's
causing
a
shortage
right
now
we
have
about
14
individuals
on
electronic
monitoring.
Some
of
those
are
alcohol
monitoring
devices,
not
gps,
and
just
to
clarify
that
alcohol
monitoring
devices.
J
D
J
A
Okay,
anything
else,
tom.
J
Real
quick.
Lastly,
we
had
the
drill
court
auction
number
six.
It
was
virtual,
thank
you
for
everyone
who
participated
in
in
that
it
took
a
it's
obviously,
a
very
unique
year.
Less
money
was
made
this
year
than
past
years,
but
that's
to
be
expected
with
a
lot
of
work
from
a
lot
of
people
to
make
it
happen
with
what's
going
on
right
now,
so
I
just
want
to
thank
everyone
who
worked
so
hard
to
get
that.
A
And
thank
you
to
you
for
your
hard
work
for
that.
Any
questions
from
mr
latham
miss
mr
hunter.
Go
ahead:
you're!
Muted,
mr
hunter!
Well,
I'm.
C
Trying
to
this
phone
is
acting
crazy.
This
morning,
tom,
I'm
sure
I
speak
on
behalf
of
all
the
missions
on
your
recent
loss
of
mayor
bob
latham.
C
I
worked
with
latham
and
in
many
instances
and
and
he
was
truly
a
public
servant,
you
know
for
the
not
only
the
people
of
the
village
of
bourbon
a,
but
he
had
moral
impact
in
terms
his
role
on
the
I
think,
the
initial,
maybe
the
first
second
board
of
karma,
as
well
as
the
mayor's
association
and
and
so
many
other
things
that
he
was
able
to
do,
and
you
are
falling
in
the
following
in
the
footsteps
of
mayor
latham
and
I
I
just
want
to
say
our
condolence
to
your
your
family
on
the
tr,
not
you
personally,
but
for
the
community
at
large
large
c.
C
I
think
his
his
efforts
and
his
lucky
continues.
You
know
your
entire
family
is
a
public
service,
but
he
was
one
hell
of
a
guy
one
hell
of
a
servant,
and
I
just
share
it
with
you.
Well.
J
Thank
you,
mr
hunter.
He
was
a
great
man.
He
fought
for
many
years.
He
fought
against
this,
but
he's
I'll
ask
that,
along
to
his
family,
he
has
a
wonderful
family,
they're,
all
very
close,
which
is
very
helpful
during
times
like,
especially
with
the
pandemic,
how
people
cannot
gather
in
large
groups
and
things
like
that,
but
I'll.
Thank
you
very
much
for
saying
that
appreciate
it.
G
Yes,
michael
daughter
says
as
well
on
behalf
of
your
brother.
I
didn't
know
that
I
think.
G
It's
my
uncle.
Oh,
your
uncle,
okay,
yeah!
I
knew
I
knew
him
in
government
service,
but
I
have
one
question.
The
a
lot
of
the
gangs
are
are
utilizing
the
the
the
youth
supposedly
to
initiate
criminal
activity
because
the
consequences
are
less
on
them.
Are
you
seeing
an
uprise
in
the
community
of
a
youth
getting
into
into
this
situation?
G
I
know
that
we
see
some
with
guns
and
the
whole
nine
yards,
but
do
you
see
any
uprising
or
is
it
just
kind
of
normal
numbers
in
your
kind
of
under
your
watch
eye.
J
We
have
a
handful
of
juveniles
that
are
causing
a
lot
of
the
issues
that
we're
seeing,
but
I
think
you
know
the
bigger
issue
I
see
right
now
is
when
these
juveniles
come
through
our
system,
we've
worked
with
them,
we've
worked
with
them
over
years,
once
once
they
get
to
the
department
of
juvenile
justice,
eoc
they're
returned
to
the
community
very
quickly.
J
A
K
You,
sir
good
morning,
what
do
you
have
for
us
this
morning?
Oh
well,
a
little
bit,
you
should
have
the
monthly
report
that
was
emailed
out
to
you
from
kelly.
You
know
a
couple
things
to
note.
K
K
We
we
didn't
take
any
new
ones
in
for
quite
a
while,
just
because
of
the
unknown,
we
have
started
to
take
some
from
the
marshalls
and
some
from
ice,
although
with
the
uptick
in
cove
that
has
slowed
again
so
we're
not
in
any
big
hurry
to
overload
our
jail
with
out
of
county
inmates
and
detainees
locally,
we
would
have
thought
that
the
number
of
locals
would
have
dropped
as
well
because
of
covid,
but
unfortunately
it
hasn't
based
on
2020
we're
only
averaging
about
four
inmates
less
in
2020
than
we
did
in
2019.
K
So
obviously
there
is
a
increased
cost
in
housing,
our
locals
than
with
our
out
of
counties
down
so
low.
So
that
was
somewhat
significant
and
I
don't
see
our
locals
dropping
very
much
looking
forward.
K
Our
transports
are
are
trending
a
little
bit
back
up,
although
that'll
slow
too,
with
the
courthouse
and
the
things
up
north.
A
lot
of
the
things
up
north
we're
doing
by
video,
which
is
a
big
help
and
with
the
courthouse
now,
basically
shutting
down
our
transports
over
to
the
courthouse
will
be
very
limited
as
well.
K
K
K
Secondly,
on
the
animal
control
update
the
intergovernmental
agreement
with
bourbon
a
is
in
the
hands
of
bourbon
a
we
are
waiting
for
a
response
talking
to
them
about
a
contract,
and
we
will
continue
to
move
forward
with
additional
igas
original
governmental
agreements
to
the
other
municipalities,
including
bradley
kankakee
moments,
saint
anne
grant
park
and
so
on.
So
that's
where
we're
at
with
that.
K
That's
okay!
No,
we
have
not.
We
are
still
trying
to
determine
what
exactly
we
want
the
vehicles
that
we
initially
talked
about,
we're
determining
size,
whether
we
want
a
bigger
one,
whether
we
want
a
smaller
one,
so
we're
still
and
obviously
we've
got
to
get
a
state
bid
price
as
opposed
we
can't.
Unfortunately,
we
just
can't
go
to
a
local
dealer
and
say
we
want
this.
So
if
the
local
dealers
can't
meet
the
state
bid
price,
then
we
have
to
go
obviously
outside
to
a
to
a
vendor.
Who
does.
K
Good,
so
a
couple
of
additional
things,
and
just
to
give
you
a
heads
up
and
a
little
bit
of
additional
information
regarding
our
corrections.
Vehicles
we
have,
we
have
two
buses
and,
and
one
is
a
22
passenger
handicapped,
accessible
bus
that
is,
has
127
000
miles
on
it.
It's
a
very
valuable
vehicle
for
us
when
we
have
to
take
a
big
group
of
a
large
group
of
people,
either
to
the
illinois
department
of
corrections
or
transports
up
north
or
transports
to
the
courthouse.
K
Our
second
bus,
which
is
a
20
passenger
2007,
has
136
miles
on
it,
136
000
miles
on
it
and
it
is
sitting
in
the
back
with
no
engine
in
it
right
now,
the
cost
we
have
to
replace
that
engine
is
about
approximately
18
000..
K
So
at
this
point
we
are
trying
to
determine
what
we're
gonna
do
with
that
vehicle,
whether
we're
going
to
put
an
engine
in
it
for
eighteen
thousand
dollars
or
look
to
replace
that
vehicle
with
maybe
something
a
little
bit
newer,
not
necessarily
new,
but
maybe
a
used
a
used
vehicle
that
we
can
use
utilize.
That
has
an
engine
in
it.
K
Just
to
give
you
a
little
background
on
our
vans,
we
have
three
2009
vans.
They
are
eight
to
ten
passenger
respect
respectively.
They
have
a
hundred
and
forty
two
thousand
hundred
forty
four
thousand
and
hundred
eighty
thousand
miles
on
them.
We
have
two
2011
vans,
they're
10
to
12
passenger
vans.
K
They
have
173
000
miles
on
them
and
242
000
miles
on
them.
We
have
two
2017
10
to
12
passenger
vans.
One
has
103
000,
the
other
one
has
91
000
and
we
have
a
2000.
We
have
two
2018
vans,
10
to
12
passenger.
One
has
84
000
miles
on
it.
One
has
78
000
miles
on
it,
so
our
miles
on
the
vans
are
are
certainly
increasing.
K
We
also
have
a
dodge
caravan.
That
is
a
2013.
It
is
also
handicapped
accessible,
it
can
only
transport
one
to
two
passengers.
It
has
75
000
miles
on
it
and
we
have
two
2011
chevy
tahoes
that
we
basically
are
utilizing
from
our
old
patrol
fleet.
K
K
K
A
little
bit
newer,
our
transport
supervisors
and
jay
hansen
who
handles
our
vehicles
and
some
of
the
maintenance,
have
done
a
great
job
in
using
the
vans,
the
tahoes
and
the
bus
when
we
need
them
and
and
taking
very
good
care
of
them.
So
I
think
we're
getting
by
relatively
inexpensive
with
the
van.
So
far
the
maintenance
hasn't
hit
us
hard
yet,
but
as
anything
with
these
vehicles,
we
we
look
forward
to
that-
probably
increasing,
unfortunately,
as
they
age,
but
we
will
keep
this
committee
advised
as
to
our
vehicle
fleet.
K
Secondly,
we
have
two
inspections
coming
up
in
the
month
of
november
for
ice,
and
they
one
is
thanksgiving
week
which
not
quite
sure
why
they
chose
thanksgiving
week,
but
that
is
nakamoto,
that
is
the
company
that
is
contracted
with
ice
to
do
jail
inspections.
They
do
those
about
every
six
months
and
then
the
week
after
we
have
what's
called
an
odo
inspection.
Odo
stands
for
the
office
of
detention
oversight.
K
We
have
been
inspected
by
both
of
those
for
the
last
three
and
a
half
years.
However
long
we've
had
ice,
and
so
those
are
not
anything
new
to
us
and
we
are
ready
for
them
and
we
normally
fare
very
well
with
those
inspections.
So
in
both
inspections
by
the
way
are
virtual,
which
is
a
little
bit
different
than
normal
inspections,
but
due
to
kovid
that's
how
they
are
choosing
to
to
do
their
inspections.
So
questions
on
the
inspections.
K
No
questions
go
ahead
and,
lastly,
as
we
have
talked
about
covid
in
different
offices
and
and
things
like
that
and
the
effects
it's
had
on
our
criminal
justice
system,
I'll
give
you
a
covet
update
of
our
both
of
our
facilities.
K
K
The
symptoms
have
all
been
minor,
sinus
cough
headache,
type
of
of
symptoms,
and
this
is
covet-
has
also
affected
our
staff.
We
are
not,
unfortunately,
you
know,
and-
and
that's
really
how
we
thought
originally
that
covet
would
end
up
in
in
our
facility
was
was
with
staff
because
a
lot
of
people
to
their
credit-
and
this
is
not
just
in
corrections,
but
it's
probably
true
everywhere.
K
A
lot
of
people
are
out
there,
maybe
with
symptoms,
maybe
with
minor
symptoms,
who
think
I'm
good
enough
to
go
to
work.
I'm
good
enough
to
go
wherever
I
have
to
go,
and
then
it
ultimately
spreads
and
that's
more
than
likely
what
happened
at
the
downtown
jail.
We
do
not
have
any
covet
at
the
jerome
cones
detention
center.
K
I
can't
say
enough
about
our
medical
staff,
dr
long
who
is
the
medical
director
and
his
staff
of
nurses
and
physician
assistants
and
nurse
practitioners
have
done
outstanding
work
for
both
the
inmates
and
our
staff.
K
The
one
thing
about
our
medical
department
is
that
we
understand
that
people
new
arrests
who
are
coming
into
our
facility,
sometimes
don't
either
they
don't
have
the
ability
to
get
medical
care
or
they
choose
not
to
and-
and
our
goal
has
always
been
to
make
sure
that
somebody,
an
inmate,
is
better
health-wise
when
they
leave
than
when
they
came
in,
because
it
is
a
public
health
issue
and
it's
something
that
our
medical
staff
takes
pride
in.
And
I
I
again
I
can't
say
enough
about
the
job
they
do
for
for
those
inmates
and
detainees.
K
K
It's
not
really
fair
for
them
to
sit
in
jail
for
three
months,
not
knowing
what's
going
on,
and
so
we
notified
them
of
the
shutdown.
We
also
notified
them
that
if
they
wish
to
speak
to
their
attorney
to
let
us
know-
and
we
will
get
that
information
to
their
attorney
so
that
their
attorney
can
speak
with
them
at
a
convenient
time
for
for
the
attorney.
K
I'm
not
sure
if
they
have
gotten
responses
yet
for
them
to
contact
their
attorneys,
and
mr
pennowick
would
probably
know
a
little
more
about
that
than
we
would
but
and
lastly,
as
as
we
all
know,
covet
has
not
stopped
crime
police
all
over
the
county.
Every
municipality
are
dealing
with
individuals
that
they
have
to.
K
Unfortunately,
they
are
not
able
to
social
distance
from,
and
so
we
know
that,
including
our
department
and
other
municipalities
that
covet
has
made
its
way
through
those
departments
as
well,
and
so
all
police
agencies
right
now
are
dealing
with
covid
and
you
know,
because
we
don't,
we
haven't,
stopped
arresting
people,
because
people
call
in
mr
rowe
referenced
the
the
domestic
cases
and
he's
correct.
K
We've
we've
seen
a
huge
uptick
in
the
number
of
domestic
cases
throughout
the
county
and
police
have
to
respond
to
those
for
the
safety
of
everybody.
So
it's
it's
here.
Hopefully
we
can
deal
with
a
vaccine
at
some
point,
but
right
now
we're
going
to
deal
with
this
for
quite
a
while.
I
think,
and
we'll
continue
to
deal
with
it
credit
to
our
both
our
staffs
and
corrections,
the
police,
the
other
policeman
police
agencies
in
the
county.
K
Who
who
go
out
and
do
this
every
day
we
we
basically
have.
K
We
basically
have
instituted,
as
as
we
should
anyway,
but
universal
precautions.
We
we
are
assuming
when
we
go
to
somebody's
when
we
have
contact
with
somebody.
We
are
assuming
that
they
are
coveted,
positive
and
dealing
with
them
in
that
way,
and
hopefully
that
will
help
our
police
officers.
It
will
help
the
general
public,
but
you
know
covet,
is
not
going
anywhere.
Unfortunately,
so.
C
Thank
you
very
much
man,
you
guys.
Let
me
speak
today,
that's
I
really
appreciate
it
sheriff
several
things.
Let
me
ask
you
this
and
there's
a
bunch
of
questions
I
want
to.
You
touched
on
the
covet
numbers
16..
C
C
Additionally,
if
he
could
enlighten
the
commissioners
regarding
the
relationship
or
the
ongoing
relationship
and
programmatic
efforts
that
your
office
has
taken
in
conjunction
with
the
naacp
regarding
the
kinky
county,
rapid
response
team
and
that's
a
group
of
individuals
which
we've
identified
with
the
sheriff's
office
and
in
local
law
enforcement
in
terms
of
identifying
community
leaders
working
together
in
conjunction
with
law
enforcement-
and
this
is
kind
of
like
a
macro
situation
in
terms
of
all
the
the
major
police
chiefs
in
the
county,
as
well
as
state
police
as
well
as,
in
fact,
we
even
we
even
brought
in
the
sheriff
from
iroquois
county
to
interface
in
terms
of
training
and
working
together
as
eyes
and
ears
of
the
community
to
work
with
the
police.
C
In
terms
of
calling
misinformation
and
sharing
information
to
the
respect
of
neighborhoods
about
certain
instances
that
transpire
with
law
enforcement,
could
you
could
you
speak
to
all
of
those
issues?
Please
that's
a
lot
of
questions.
K
Quite
a
bit,
I
I
got
them
all
written
down,
so,
okay,
okay,
as
far
as
covet
on
our
with
our
staff.
As
I
said,
we
have
had
a
a.
I
would,
I
believe,
off
the
top
of
my
head.
I
believe
there
are
four
five
deputies
who
have
contracted
covid
three
have
recovered.
One
is
presently
out
and
the
last
one
that's
out
right
now
had
a
family
member
who
had
coveted
and
obviously
he
had
contracted
it
from
his
family
corrections
staff.
K
K
K
Yes,
it's
okay
for
that
employee
to
come
back
to
work,
and
that
has
worked
out
very
well,
but
it
is
a
mix
of
individuals
who
are
employed
by
us
who
have
covid
and
individuals
who
have
to
quarantine
employees
who
have
to
quarantine
because
of
a
family
member.
So
those
are
the
those
are
the
staff
issues
that
we
have
with
kovid
as
far
as
chewie
garcia.
K
I've
not
heard
another
word
from
mr
garcia
relating
to
anything
involving
ice,
and
the
last
issue
was
the
naacp
relationship
with
law
enforcement
locally
and
the
rapid
response
team,
and-
and
I
know
we've
we've
been
doing
this
for
quite
a
while
and-
and
I
believe-
and
I
I've
said
this
publicly-
that
that
I
believe
that
nationally
it
would,
it
would
behoove
law
enforcement
and
the
naacp
to
follow
the
model
that
we
have
created
here
in
kankakee
county
with
the
relationship
that
we
have
together
and
how
we
address
issues
together.
K
K
That
is
something
that
the
illinois
chiefs
of
police
put
together
with
the
naacp
every
agency
in
our
county,
one
of
very
few
counties,
not
only
in
the
state
of
illinois
but
nationwide,
who
have
signed
on
to
those
10
shared
principles
and
I'm
proud
to
say
that
we
in
kankakee
county
have-
and
I
think
it's
a
plus
for
everybody-
it's
a
it's-
a
plus
for
our
community.
We've
been
doing
this
since
2014,
since
right
after
ferguson
happened
and
something
that
that
both
the
naacp
and
our
local
law
enforcement
said.
K
We
don't
want
this
to
happen
in
kankakee
county
and
we
have
done
a
lot
of
good
things
over
the
course
of
the
last
six
years,
and
we
continue
to
do
it.
The
members
of
the
public
on
this
rapid
response
team
who
are
getting
ready
to
go
through
training,
set
up
by
law
enforcement
states,
attorney
to
talk
about
issues
and
how
maybe
to
describe
how
police
respond
to
things
and
why
they
respond
to
things.
Because
sometimes
there's
things
that
the
public
doesn't
know.
And
I
think
it's
good
as
as
I
think
mr
hunter
alluded
to.
C
No,
you
know,
as
was
indicated,
you
know
when
I
first
got
on,
I
mean
I
I
caught
health
for
saying
it,
but
you
know
he's
one
of
the
rock
stars
regarding
the
county
government
he's
been
in
the
forefront
in
terms
of
hosting
a
lot
of
the
different
forums
we've
had
with
people
from
throughout
the
county,
and
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
incorporate
leaders
and
and
people
who
represent
certain
constituency
groups.
You
know
from
pembroke
all
the
way
out
to
the
west
coast
of
the
of
the
county,
as
I
call
it.
A
These
kinds
of
things
are
what
makes
our
community
different
from
other
communities,
and
you
know
the
good
people
that
are
working
together
to
make
those
bonds
and
make
things
happen
for
us.
That's
that's
what
makes
us
different.
C
You
know,
what's
amazing,
too,
is
it's
live
stream
as
well
too?
So
it's
you
know.
Sometimes
I
think
it's
maybe
a
four
or
five
hundred
level
course.
You
know,
if
you
guys
have
time
to
watch
that
stuff
that
we've
been
able
to
do.
I
mean
anybody
can
watch
some
of
the
meetings
that
we
we
conduct
and,
as
I
was
saying
it
just,
doesn't
and
involve
local
law
enforcement
in
terms
of
county
stuff.
Like
I
said,
iroquois
isn't
beginning
to
interface.
C
State
police
are
interfacing
as
well
too,
so
it's
and
we've
had
people
from
other
counties
to
come
as
well
too
and
observe
what
we're
doing.
I
think
and
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
sheriff.
I
think
some
individuals
have
come
in
from
peoria
as
well
too,
and
I
can't
remember
the
other
locales,
but
you
know
it's
been
very
positive
and
and
and,
as
he
said,
publicly
should
be
a
model
you
know
for
the
country.
L
If,
if
you
go
through
my
report,
there
on
the
we
had
127
calls
in
october,
19
were
horns,
calls
where
the
coroner
has
to
react
to
the
calls
instead
of
the
doctors,
and
then
we
have
autopsies
that
actually
went
down
a
little
bit
there.
We
only
had
six
in
the
month
of
october,
which
is
good
other
than
that.
I
think.
L
If
you
go
down
the
list,
it's
self
explainable,
we're
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
our
major
factors,
which
we
talk
a
lot
about
coronavirus,
arona
19,
but
I
also
want
to
illustrate
that
we
have
a
pandemic
also
of
overdoses.
We
are
very
close
to
hitting
the
50
mark
right
now
with
less
than
two
weeks
to
go
we're
at
43
cases
right
now,
with
five
pending
on
overdoses,
we
had
an
accident
last
night,
which
we
found
a
lot
of
drugs
in
the
car.
L
L
Fentanyl
is
the
up
rising
with
a
number
of
our
cases
are
all
all
fentanyl
so
we're
doing
the
best
we
can.
We
can't
get
out
there
to
teach,
but
I
do
do
stuff
like
this
to
the
county
board,
and
hopefully
they
know
I.
I
think
that
should
be
something
that
if,
as
I
keep
preaching
that
I
love
to
get
into
the
churches
to
be
able
to
talk
about
this,
but
obviously
you
can't
do
that.
L
So
we're
at
right
now
is
is
what
the
sheriff
just
said,
that
they
had
eight
eight
mishap
fatalities
on
the
vehicles
wise.
We
show
11,
that's
because
they're
outside
outside
the
area.
That's
what
happened
to
last
night
accident
was
in
will
county,
but
they
died
in
our
county.
So
statistics
are
different
on
that,
but
I'll
I'll
take
any
questions
you
have
on
anything
other
than
that.
That's
all
I
got.
G
Yes,
one.
G
Well,
that
first
name
looking
at
our
covet
numbers
in
this
particular
county.
When
I,
I
guess
the
last
ones
I
saw
they
were
relatively
low
in
comparison
to
the
to
the
the
number
of
individuals
that
are
contracting.
I
believe
covet,
don't
know
if,
if
there
are
remedies
out
there,
that
people
home
remedies
or
whatever,
but
I
don't
see
a
lot
of
the
fatalities
as
we
first
came
across
when
we
first
started
out.
G
What
do
you
kind
of
contribute
that
to
and
then
also
if
these
enough
is
there
any
way
that
we
can
determine
the
hot
spots?
I've,
because
I
believe
that
it
can
unfairly
harm
businesses
if
they
they're
not
the
contributive
factor
that
makes
sense.
L
Yeah,
it
makes
sense
out
there.
I
think
you're
basically
should
deal
a
lot
with
our
our
own
kaneki
county
health
department,
who
handles
a
lot
of
this
stuff
when
we
get
a
statistics
of
a
person
dying
of
a
kovic
or
with
pneumonia
involved.
There's
all
kinds
of
different
diagnoses
on
that,
but
kovic
seems
to
hit
it
we're
at
91
deaths
right
now
throughout
the
2020
here
in
kaneki
county.
C
My
phone
is
acting
crazy
today,
mr
hunter,
what
can
I
do
for
you?
Thank
you
very
much.
Bob
you
you're,
no
stranger
to
my
community
or
or
the
city
can't
keep
community
period.
I
mean
you,
you
know
the
the
guester
name
is
is
synonymous
with
public
service,
but
anyway,
with
respect
to
promulgating
information
to
the
churches
and
stuff.
I
know
that
in
the
past
you
and
jim
rowe
kmag
sheriff's
department
have
made
presentations
before
the
naacp
which
really
phenomenal
presentations,
I
think
I'm
being
redundant.
C
When
I
say
that
I
learned
a
lot
from
some
of
the
comments
that
you
made
as
well
as
the
panelists.
I
learned
something
about
fentanyl.
I
didn't
really
know
how
strong
that
stuff
was,
but
you
explained
that,
but
you
know
our
church.
C
For
example,
you
know
we've
had
visitors,
you
know
from
municipal
representatives,
alderman
tall
has
been
there,
alderman
curtis,
treasurer
afrikaner
jake
lee,
I
think
even
came
as
well
too,
but
a
lot
of
that
stuff
is
done
virtual
and,
and
you
may
be
able
to
do
presentations
virtually.
L
A
You
too,
bob
we
have
a
first
and
a
second
to
accept
these
reports.
I
think
it's
probably
time
for
a
roll
call.
Is
that
correct
kelly?
Okay,
there
we
go
kelly,
roll
call.
D
B
A
B
A
A
Very
good,
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
being
patient
with
me
today.
My
first
time
up
here.
The
last
thing
I
have
on
my
list
is
any
new
business.
D
We've
been
talking
a
lot
about
the
county
health
department
from
this
meeting
that
we
have
in
the
past.
I
was
wondering
if
there's
some
way,
that
we
could
invite
someone
from
the
county
health
department
to
make
presentations
every
in
this
committee
on
what's
going
on
with
the
covid.
A
You
know,
I
believe
that
report
happens
in
a
different
committee.
Is
there
any
reason
why
we
could
not
ask
john
beavis
to
come
and
speak
to
us?
Is
there
any
reason
we
couldn't
do
that
kelly?
Could
you
send
a
message
over
to
him
and
ask
him
if
he
could
come
to
december
and
if
he
has
time
to
do
that
seems
reasonable
to
me.
E
Mr
chairman,
go
ahead,
mr
c
roy,
please,
yes,
yeah
john
gives
his
report
during
executive
committee
and
usually
he
gives
a
thorough
report
and
speaking
to
the
data
they're
just
now,
compiling
the
data
and
they've
got
an
antelus
analyst.
I
believe
who's
trying
to
figure
out
the
contact
tracing
and
where
the
hot
spots
are
at.
Mr
wheeler
asked
that
at
the
last
executive
committee
and
they're,
starting
to
formulate
that
so
for
the
for
this
committee's
knowledge,
very
good.
A
We
know
john
does
a
good
job
over
there
and
that
he's
probably
pretty
busy,
but
maybe
he
could
join
us
by
zoom
for
the
next
meeting
just
for
a
short
little
period.
So
one.
L
Point,
mr
chairman,.
L
Just
to
remind
everybody
at
kinky
county
corner.org,
we
update
that
every
day
with
kobe
every
day.
We
do
that
so
very
good
right
on
target.
So.
A
L
Unbelievable
yeah
and
everywhere
I
go
people
comment
about
that.
Thank
you
for
updating
us
in
the
counting
yeah.
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
updating
this.
It's
it's
kind
of
by
the
health
department
website
and
and
your
website
are
who,
when
people
ask
me,
questions,
that's
who
I
direct
them
to
to
go,
find
more
answers.
So
that's
a
great
tool
that
we
have
and
thank
you
for
doing
that
bob.
Thank
you
anything
else.
G
The
jelly-
I
know
I'm
always
in
person,
but
I
had
to
join
the
baby
zoomers
on
today,
even
though
I'm
a
baby
boomer
but
the
the
pure
news
had
I
mean
they
they
shot
across
the
screen,
the
young
lady,
that
was
picking
up
her
grandson
and
was
getting
in
a
car,
not
a
grandson
or
son,
from
his
grandmother
in
the
car.
G
That
was
my
sister
that
they
shot
into
the
face
last
night
about
5
30,
some
gang
members
just
started
shooting
randomly,
and
unfortunately
she
was
the
person
that,
and
we
got
the
call
and
they're
flying
in
from
from
peoria,
because
they
don't
have
the
plastic
surgeons
to
the
university
of
chicago.
G
And
so
I
I
take
great
damage
against
individuals
that
that
do
these
un
are
these
criminal
acts
of
violence.
These
young
kids
that
are
in
the
initiations
to
prove
that
they
are,
can
be
a
gang
member
by
just
shooting
and
things
of
this
nature
that
the
harms
and
things
that
they
do
to
families
the
disturbance
that
they
basically
cause,
and
just
it's
just
fortunate
in
this
case
that
we're
not
having
a
funeral
but
we're.
G
But
yet
there
are
some
very
extensive
damages
and
things
done
so
until
she
comes
out
the
woods
I'll
probably
be
coming
on
by
zoom,
instead
of
being
there
in
person,
and
so
this
is
those
that
pray
prayers.
Thank
you.
A
Certainly,
we
would
be
glad
to
extend
prayers
to
your
family
and
we're
very
sorry
to
hear
that
that
it's,
I
think
we
can
all
get
behind
condemning
those
acts
of
cowardice
that
are
happening
everywhere
these
days.
So
anybody
else
good
job.
Mr
chairman,
thank
you
very
much,
I'm
pretty
glad
it's
over
it
being
it's
friday,
the
13th
and
my
first
time
so
yeah
it's
and
I
would
entertain
that
motion.
Mr
hess.
