Criminal Justice Committee Meeting 6/10/2020 7:30 AM

A

E
This
last
month,
because
the
activity
at
the
courthouse
would
slow
credit
cards
alike,
so
I
was,
you
know,
you
know
kind
of
surprised
that
we
dispersed
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
the
month.
So
the
collection
report
for
the
state's
attorney's
office
was
about
steady
from
April
to
May
a
little
bit
more,
but
not
much,
and
those
again
to
remind
everyone
are
the
agreements
that
people
are
making
with
the
state's
attorney's
office
to
make
monthly
payments,
and
if
they
don't
make
those
payments,
then
we
have
the
ability
to
sanction
them.
E
The
court
does
the
court
in
the
state's
attorney's
office
concession
and
that
they
don't
up
with
their
payments.
So
then
for
the
Harris
and
Harris
report,
I
was
the
one
hundred
and
six
thousand
nine
seventy.
That's
our
money,
that's
not
the
Harris
money.
So
to
kind
of
remind
everybody
how
that
works.
If,
if
there's
a
hundred
dollars
owed
on
a
ticket,
then
the
grand
total
would
be
a
hundred
and
thirty
dollars,
and
here's.
E
E
We
have
a
file
that
we
upload
to
them
every
week
and
then
they
have
a
file
that
they
up
returned
to
us.
So
whatever
money
we've
collected,
we
send
the
report
to
them
and
then
they
collect
money
through
their
system
and
then
they
go
back
and
forth.
So
that's
why
the
money?
It's
you
know
the
cases
that
they
report,
that
the
money
that
they're
sending
to
us
was
four
hundred
and
twenty-eight
cases
that
they
collected
on
or
that
we
collected
on
and
that's
what
we
dispersed
to
them.
I'm.
Sorry,
so
you.
E
Know
if
you
ever
want
me
to
betray
and
like
really
define
a
report,
we
can
do
that,
but
they
do
send
us
the
report,
so
it
showed
that
in
the
month
or
in
the
20
year,
2020
so
far,
the
cases
that
we've
turned
over
to
them
are
667
cases
to
the
tune
of
two
hundred
and
eighty
four
thousand
sixty
four
dollars.
So
that's
what
we
are
asking
them
to
help
us
collect
the
money
on.
E
They're
still
fine-tuning
the
civil
filing
system,
there's
just
the
testing,
that's
going
back
and
forth
is
slow
and
arduous.
We've
been
having
at
least
monthly
meetings
and
sometimes
a
little
more
often
with
the
two
vendors
and
the
manager
in
my
office
and
the
administrative
office
of
Illinois
courts
trying
to
get
everybody.
You
know
on
the
same
page,
and
so
that's
where
we're
at
with
that
so
hopefully
hold
more
next
month.
Okay,.
E
E
We
aren't
sure
we
had
talked
with
the
law
firms
like
from
Chicago,
and
he
said
that
Chicago
Cook
County
is
not
serving
summons
and
things
so
they're,
not
even
filing
cases,
and
so
I,
don't
know
if
they,
if
that
just
is
a
statewide
issue,
but
we,
our
filings,
are
still
down
for
this
month.
As
far
as
civil
goes.
F
D
Grand
jury
report
to
present,
because
I
was
still
in
that
conducting
grand
jury,
proceeding
not
sure
when
we'll
bring
those
back.
That
may
still
be
a
little
while,
but
things
are
going
pretty
well
we're
doing.
Preliminary
hearings
on
those
the
judges
have
done
very
accommodating
public
defenders
not
very
accommodating,
with
scheduling
those.
So
for
the
meantime,
probably
another
month
or
two
before
we
get
any
grand
jury
proceedings
going.
A
G
G
Yeah
I'm
serious
computer
zoom
problems
this
morning
worked
out,
I
mean.
Obviously
the
report
speaks
for
itself.
I.
Think
the
coal
boot
situation
is
finally
pretty
much
ground
part
of
the
system
to
a
halt,
and
that's
basically
it
I
know
chairman.
We
are
talked
about
traffic
last
month
and
I
started
doing
some
digging
on
the
numbers.
The
numbers
are
just
going
up
every
month.
There's
a
couple
reasons
that
I
believe
may
be.
G
A
factor
have
not
actually
done
the
deep
dive
and
do
it
yet,
but
I've
been
told
that
more
assignments
more
people
are
getting
the
public
defender
whether
or
not
they
you
know,
depending
on
I'm
sure,
there's
a
oh.
Let
me
back
up
a
little
bit.
Just
more
people
are
getting
appointed
a
public
defender,
obviously
with
coal
did
that
you
know
kind
of
threw
a
curveball
in
last
two
months,
but
I've
got
a
seven
London
intern,
which
is
a
intern.
That's
legally
authorized
to
practice.
G
Law,
she's
gonna
be
coming
down
with
no
cost
to
anyone
and
she's
going
to
be
helping
out
in
traffic,
so
I
hope
we
can
get
those
numbers
down
a
little
bit,
but
other
than
that
things
have
been
slow
and
hopefully
people
start
picking
up.
I
know
the
first
jury
trials
will
start
next,
Monday
and
I
know.
There's
been
a
lot
of
accommodations
and
and
people
trying
to
work
together
to
make
that
happen.
So
hopefully
that
goes
and
I
think
we're
gonna
be
one
of
the
first
ones
in
the
state.
F
G
F
G
A
Sorry
I
didn't
have
any
question.
I
thought
I
got
the
wave
anyone
else.
Okay,
we
have
a
motion
of
the
second
of
a
month
of
report.
All
those
in
favor
say
aye
aye.
Those
opposed
same
sign
motion
carries.
Do
you
have
anything
else
for
us
today?
No
I
appreciate
any
questions
for
read
outside
of
the
report,
all
right
that
was
a
day.
Thank
you.
You
too
Thanks
next
stop
probation
Tom
Latham.
He
has
his
monthly
report
in
the
packet
as
well.
H
Nothing
really
much
dad
you
can
see
the
contact
still
remain
low
and
that's
going
to
continue
until
we
can
begin
in-person
contacts,
not
sure
when
that's
going
to
start,
we
did,
which
is
not
reflected
in
the
April
report,
but
will
be
in
the
May
report,
we're
starting
to
increase
our
field
contacts
in
the
community,
so
we're
getting
more
people
out
and
about.
We
can
do
that
at
a
safer
distance
than
bringing
them
in
the
building,
so
I'm
hoping
starting
in
May.
The
main
report,
you're
gonna,
start
seeing
an
increase
slowly
back
to
normal.
H
As
far
as
how
many
contacts
we
have
them
up
and
there's
really
nothing
much
warrants
stats.
Let
me,
as
a
question,
are
the
juvenile
detention
population
remains
low.
I
think
only
have
three
minors
in
custody
right
now.
Our
request
for
detention.
Screenings
are
way
down
also
during
this
time.
So
unless
there's
any
questions.
A
A
H
And
I
think
when
we
brought
that
up-
and
you
put
money
in
the
budget
for
that
that
was
really
the
goal-
is
to
reduce
the
population
in
custody.
Do
it
much
cheaper
and
what
is
it?
Center,
$8
a
day,
yeah
$7
a
day
in
the
community
and
it's
very
successful
I
think?
Yes,
we
have
our
hiccups.
We
had
a
juvenile
that
cut
a
bracelet
off
last
week,
he's
been
detained,
but
we
for
the
most
part
it
works.
It's
very
effective.
So,
yes,
I
do
okay,.
A
H
H
They
continue
to
properly,
monitor
everyone,
both
adult
and
juvenile,
not
losing
track
of
anyone
which
is
very
important,
and
my
plans
changed
several
times
during
this
process
and
staff
rolled
with
every
change.
So
I
just
want
to
point
that
out.
They've
done
an
excellent
job
in
this
lasts.
Well,
since
the
middle
of
March
and
real
quick
is,
you
know.
In
the
past,
I've
talked
about
pretrial.
We
had
four
funded
pretrial
positions
from
the
state
that
we
received
in
January.
H
We
hired
the
four
we
trained
the
floor,
they're
ready
to
go
and
then
kovat
hit,
but
now
we
think
we're
ready,
starting
Monday
for
them
to
be
to
begin
assessing
individuals,
adults,
every
adult
in
custody,
completing
bond
reports
on
every
one
of
them,
including
weekends
and
start,
then,
obviously,
the
supervising
those
individuals
as
a
result
of
those
bond
reports.
So
after
two
months,
delay,
I
think
we're
ready
to
move
forward
on
that.
H
The
salaries
of
all
the
probation
staff
will
be
a
hundred
percent
reimbursed,
which
was
a
very
pleasant
surprise.
So
I
was
worried
that
there
could
be
after
our
meeting
last
month.
I
think
it
was
the
same
day.
I
had
another
meeting
with
the
state
and
I
was
concerned
with
the
25
to
35
percent
reduction.
So
when
I
swung
around
to
be
a
hundred
percent
funded,
it
was
a
pleasant
surprise.
So
I
just
wanted
to
let
the
committee
know
that
so
this.
C
H
It
was
a
unique
to
say
the
least
held
outside
the
North
Lawn
of
the
courthouse
seven
graduates.
I
thought
it
went
very
well
and
by
honestly,
was
nice
to
get
back
together
and
have
a
face
to
face
meeting
hearing
and
I
think
anybody
that's
ever
attended.
Those
graduations
are
always
moved
by
the
graduates
and
the
speech
they
get
when
they
get
up
there.
H
A
Anything
else
for
Tom
all
right,
Paragon
top.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
see
you
next
up
is
the
Sheriff's
Department
Mike
Downey
good
morning
morning,
right
Mike
has
a
multi
report.
I
guess:
can
we
get
a
motion
on
there,
so
he
can
start
to
dive
into
that
I'm
gonna
I
think
that
was
Colton
and
who
was
the
second
I.
I
I
However,
her
local
population
really
hasn't
we're
we're
still
averaging
about
250
a
day
so
that,
for
some
reason
everybody
else
around
the
state
of
Illinois
is
getting
out
of
jail,
except
the
people
here.
So
I'm
not
sure
why
that
is,
but
we'll
we'll
continue
to
monitor
that
our
transports
are
basically
at
zero.
The
majority
of
our
transports
are,
we
still
have
to
take
inmates
to
medical
stuff
when
they
need
it.
I
I
They
have
indicated
that
they
will
take
some
depending
on
the
circumstances,
but
to
my
knowledge,
they
have
taken
across
the
state
of
Illinois
and
that's
just
I.
Don't
know
that
from
all
hundred
and
two
counties,
but
our
last
conference
with
all
the
conference
call
with
all
the
sheriffs.
Nobody
has
been
able
to
get
somebody
in
to
do
see
so
do
see
as
they
continue
to
release
people
and
the
governor
continues
to
release
people
and
they're.
I
Not
taking
any
new
ones
so,
while
the
state
spent
a
lot
of
money
on
kovat
and
some
other
things,
they're
saving
a
heck
of
a
lot
of
money
on
not
taking
new
prisoners
from
county
jails,
which
of
course,
then
costs
local
counties,
money
which
normally,
as
usual,
the
state
doesn't
care.
So
that's
kind
of
where
we're
at
with
that.
The
toilet
bill,
dorman,
yes
or
yes,.
I
No,
my
state
is
the
state.
Is
the
state
has
gone
back
and
forth
with
a
lot
of
stuff,
I.
Think
I've
told
this
committee
I,
think
I've
told
the
Finance
Committee
before
I
think
it'll
be
a
cold
day
in
hell
before
the
state
reimburses
counties
for
holding
their
inmates,
hopefully
I'm
wrong,
but
knowing
the
state
in
their
history
I
certainly
don't
see
them
reimbursing
us
right
now.
I
Those
837
days
for
us
amongst
a
seventy-five
thousand
dollars
in
housing,
not
including
about
another
five
thousand
dollars
in
medical
costs
that
we
have
paid
for
these
individuals,
who
should
have
been
in
the
Illinois
Department
of
Corrections.
So
we're
looking
at
$80,000
right
now
and
again,
even
if
they
reimburse
us
half
of
that
I
think
we
take
it.
But
it's
you
know
that
what's
fair
is
fair
and
they
the
original
agreement
was.
I
If
you
had
an
agreement
with
the
marshals,
they
would
pay
you
the
rate
that
that
the
marshals
are
paying
and
then
they
backed
off
of
that
and
then
they
offered
a
flat
rate
plus
thirteen
dollars
a
day
for
medical
treatment
about
$55
a
days.
So
that's
kind
of
where
we're
at
nothing's
ever
changed
yet
and,
quite
frankly,
I.
Don't
think
they
care
if
it
ever
changes.
So
that's
where
we're
at
with
that.
Thank
you.
I
Conner's
one
side
we're
starting
now
to
serve
a
few
more
papers
because
of
court
starting
to
be
back
in
session
more
regularly.
We
are
still
down
a
little
bit,
but
as
those
papers
come
in
we're
out
getting
them
served-
and
you
know
at
one
point
for
the
last
four
I
think
part
of
March
and
April.
You
know
we
really
stops
stopped
serving.
We
didn't
really
have
papers
to
serve
because
you,
nobody
had
court
dates
yet
because
we
didn't
know
how
long
this
is
gonna.
Last.
I
I
A
couple
other
things:
under
the
sheriff's
report
we
did
get
notified
the
other
day
that
we
have
renewed
our
accreditation
with
the
NCC
HC
or
the
National
Commission
on
correctional
health
care,
which
is
the
best
practice
for
inmate
health
care.
So
we
we've
got
accredited
for
another
three
years,
so
that's
a
credit
to
our
medical
staff
and
the
people
who
have
worked
with
that.
That's
something
that
not
many
jails
can
do
so.
I
You
know.
We've
always
said
that
while
we
spend
a
little
bit
more
on
medical
care,
inmate
health
care
as
a
public
health
issue-
and
we
feel
like
if
we
can
take
care
of
those
who
are
in
custody
when
they
go
top
rate,
they'll
be
better
they'll,
be
better
than
when
they
came
in.
So
we
get
notified
that
early
last
week
and
then
I
think
mr.
pendick
alluded
to
jury
trial.
I
I
And
then,
lastly,
I
think
the
other
thing
is
the
animal
control
update.
We
continue
to
operate
with
animal
control
as
normal
as
possible
are
we
are.
We
are
starting
to
see
a
little
uptick
in
dogs
that
we're
getting
in,
but
everything
over
there
has
been
has
been
going
very
well.
So
that's
all
I
got
any.
J
I
I
think
our
you
know,
our
involvement
in
the
protests
were
really
kind
of
as
backup
in
assistance
to
the
municipalities.
The
majority.
Well,
virtually
all
of
the
protests
have
been
in
all
the
missed
municipalities,
Bradley,
bourbon,
ADA,
Kankakee,
I.
Think
there's
one
in
Manteno,
the
other
night
I
think
there
was
one
in
moments
last
night,
so
we
have
really
just
provided
traffic
control
for
the
most
part
as
far
as
our
staff
and-
and
you
mentioned
it,
mr.
I
Snipes,
the
you
know,
we
we
started
meeting
with
the
n-double-a-cp
probably
five
years
ago,
and
we
meet
quarterly
every
other
well
quarterly
about
every
three
months,
and
we
talk
about
things
like
things
that
are
going
on
across
the
country
and
I've
said
this
before
I'll
continue
to
say
it
Kankakee
County
is
blessed.
They
have
the
law
enforcement
leadership.
I
That's
the
frustration
that
we
feel
as
law
enforcement
is
that,
because
of
what
Derek
Chauvin
did
to
George
Floyd
that
all
of
a
sudden,
that's
what
all
law
enforcement
does,
and
you
know,
I
think
that
part
of
it
is
the
frustrating
part
for
law
enforcement
right
now,
because
we
feel
like
we
have
a
great
relationship
with
our
community,
whether
it's
County
City,
rarely
bourbonnais
manteno
moments
for
sure
you
name
it.
You
know
our
communities
are
fortunate
to
have
the
police
officers
we
have
so
you
know
we
will
continue
to
work.
I
America
has
a
lot
of
work
to
do
and
I
say
that
not
because
I
don't
want
anybody,
thinking
that
this
is
an
us
against
them.
This
is
America
and
we
all
have
work
to
do
and
I
know
that
I
well,
I
can't
speak
for
all
law
enforcement
in
the
county.
I
can
speak
for
our
department.
We
will
continue
to
move
forward
and
continue
to
work
with
everyone
to
make
sure
that
we
as
a
community
work
together
and
everybody
is
treated
fairly.
J
But
individuals
are
trying
to
propose
that
particular
legislation
and
I
hope
in
this
particular
case
that
they
communicate
collaborate
and
try
to
cooperate
with
law
enforcement,
understand
the
vitality.
There's
you
define
something
and
it's
not
there.
Things
can
happen
outside
the
sphere
of
safety.
But
what
have
you
heard
as
far
as
the
D
funding
proposals
towards
the
legislation?
That
is
fine
law
enforcement,
I.
I
Don't
know
of
anybody
in
our
County
who,
first
of
all
believes
that's
the
right
approach.
We
are
fortunate
at
least
unfortunate
that
we
have
a
board
that
that
supports
law
enforcement.
I
think
you
know,
I
could
go
so
many
ways
with
this.
Mr.
Snipes
it
you
know
it's
frustrating
because
that's
not
the
answer,
the
answer,
and
and
one
of
the
things
that
people
don't
realize
and
I
know
our
our
circuit
clerk's
aware
of
this
or
Chief
judges.
I
Aware
of
this
Chairman's
aware
of
this,
when
they
change
legislation
last
year
about
fines
and
where
all
of
our
money
goes
from
fines
and
they
took
it
away
from
counties
and
then
at
some
point,
if,
if
a
person
is
indigent,
they
don't
have
to
pay
at
all
and
all
that
money
that
was
brought
in
was
going
to
the
state
of
Illinois
for
training.
Well,
that
money's
not
there,
and
so
our
governor
cut
out
five
million
dollars
for
law
enforcement
training.
I
I
Well,
they
need
more
training,
so
our
governor
cut
five
million
dollars
out
of
training.
So
we
need
to
continue
to
fund
training.
We
need
to
continue
to
fund
the
ability
to
have
good
training.
I
mean
I,
saw
him
on
his
press
conference
the
other
day
talking
about
how
well-trained
the
Illinois
State
Police
are,
and
they
are
they're
a
good
organization.
But
so
are
the
other
law
enforcement
agencies
out
there
across
the
state
of
Illinois
I'm
sure
he
was
promoting.
Then,
when
I
state
police,
because
they
guard
him
every
day.
I
Not
everybody
has
that
luxury
of
having
police
protection
every
day,
but
he
continues
to
do
it.
So
you
know
if
he
wants
to
cut
out
five
million
dollars
in
training
and
then
say,
but
we
need
to.
We
need
more
training,
who's
that
put
in
the
bird
nut.
That's
putting
the
burden
back
on
the
counties
for
sheriffs
to
come
in
and
say:
hey.
We
need
money
for
training
and
counties,
don't
have
it
so
you
know
once
you
know
and
I've
probably
said
too
much
right
now,
but
you
know
that's
that's
reality.
I
J
A
J
B
A
See:
okay,
all
right,
I
thought
we
were
getting
Zoom
bombed.
That's
why
I
was
trying
to
make
sure
we
have
two.
You
never
know
what
image
might
show
up
when
somebody
tries
to
get
on
your
meetings.
That's
why
we
keep
those
close
to
the
vest.
It's
Tom!
Yes,
all
right
go
ahead
and
block
him.
Please
you
know
I'm
just
kidding.
A
A
K
K
My
was
going
to
go
over
that
in
just
a
second
here:
I,
don't
want
to
get
lunch.
Okay,
our
bulldozers
are
on
the
uprise,
we're
at
four
cases
right
now,
both
doses
with
two
pending,
which
we
definitely
know
they're,
going
to
be
overdoses
our
problem.
Last
year
we
only
had
28
and
the
year
before
that
was
29,
we're
on
the
basically
hitting
the
might
be
hitting
the
mark
of
56
again.
K
If
we
continue
the
way
we
are
which
is
considerably
expensive
in
our
in
our
office
as
far
as
autopsies
wise
I,
try
to
keep
you
maintained
on
that.
Just
to
let
you
know,
like
I
said
last
year
were
28
we're
going
to
be
basically
at
26
here
it
could
be
later
today.
So
that's
where
we're
at
mr.
chairman
with
that.
Thank
you
also.
The
associate
suicide
rates
have
been
going
up
also,
which
is
also
another
autopsy
that
you
have
to
do
so.
K
We're
increasing
we're
at
eight
right
now
for
the
month
of
May
in
2000
and
excuse
me
in
2000
and
in
nineteen
there
we
were
at
nineteen
suicide
so
we're
at
the
same
type
of
oh
we're
looking
to
be
probably
right,
average
with
19
again
so
I'm
if
they're
they've
been
going
up
since
since
March.
Basically,
so
you
can
understand
that
maybe
Kovach
19
has
something
to
do
with
with
everybody
being
at
home,
quite
a
bit
other
than
that
the
average
age
of
the
overdoses
are
at
42.
The
youngest
is
at
19.
K
We're
basically
on
the
race,
Wiser's,
eight
and
but
answering
your
question
on
the
fentanyl
fentanyl
is
extremely
high
chairmen
out
of
the
out
of
the
all
the
autopsies
that
are
excuse
me.
All
the
overdoses
we
have
15
have
been
in
with
heroin
em
I've.
Excuse
me
with
fentanyl
annum,
12
with
cocaine,
we're
looking
to
see
that
mixture
of
cocaine
and
Fenton
all
together
and
that's
what
we're
seeing
right
now.
Heroin
has
just
gone
down
only
around
6,
so
you
can
see
the
difference
in
that.
K
A
K
Have
they're
still
on
yes,
sir
I
just
want
to
update
what
we've
done
out
here
at
our
morgue
I'm,
asking
any
County
Board
members
stop
out
and
see
some
of
the
new
things
we've
done
out
here
as
far
as
updating
our
particular
morgue
area
in
all
of
our
bathrooms-
and
this
is
so-
it
doesn't
go
out
different.
This
is
not
paid
for
out
of
the
general
fund
at
all.
This
is
all
paid
out
of
my
corners
fees
of
what
we're
doing
out
here,
something
that
has
to
be
some
things
has
to
be
remodeled.
K
Some
of
the
things
have
to
be
replaced
and
we're
replacing
those
as
as
we
go
along
as
far
as
one
of
the
things
we
had
to
replace
was
a
microscope
for
the
doctors,
so
that
was
quite
expensive,
but
we
were
able
to
handle
that
at
no
cost
to
the
county
at
all
doesn't
come
out
of
the
general
fund
at
all.
Just
wanted
to
make
that
a
point,
but
I
invite
anybody
to
come
out
here
to
take
a
look
at
our
facility,
we're
very,
very
proud
of
our
facility
and
I'm
extremely
proud
of
all
my
staff.
K
K
A
J
One
question
for
Bob:
first
of
all,
I
want
the
monitors
can
have
a
great
first
name,
but
second
well
with
the
Cobra
cases.
I
noticed
that
our
numbers
are
going
down
and
that
the
alarming
rate
that's
around
other
areas
is
not
here.
Kankakee.
Are
you
anticipating
that
going
forward
and
as
far
as
I
know,
we
have
a
lot
of
individuals
out?
We
are
not
more
testing
but
of
the
testing.
J
The
numbers
kind
of
rolls
in
certain
areas,
but
when
it
comes
to
fatalities,
is
decreased
tremendously,
don't
know
if
the
state,
education
or
what
but
I
do
see
a
lot
of
young
people.
A
lot
of
people
wearing
masks
out
there.
Something
I
could
never
les,
whose
social
distance,
so
the
seconds
had
an
effect
in
Kankakee
County.
Do
you
see
you
continue
to
see
those
numbers
going
downward
in
the
office.
K
Deaths
by
has,
and
I
can
say
if
we
talked
about
it
before
majority,
that
is,
cause
is
produced
by
the
doctors.
There
I
think
I've
only
signed
four
total
deaths,
since
this
has
been
going
to
we're
seeing
it
not
only
a
number
of
cases
are
going
down,
but
also
the
deaths
are
going
down
and
again
yeah
a
lot
of
people
are
wearing
masks,
I
see
them
all
over
the
county.
A
L
A
L
L
J
Just
the
update
under
old
or
new
continue
page
would
pray
for
George
I
did
I
got
the
news
that
he
had
coded,
but
they
have
brought
him
back
so
continue
to
pray
for
him
and
during
this
difficult
situation,
I
know
he
lost
his
wife
and
she
was
a
great
help
to
him.
We're
just
hoping
that
he
pulls
through
this,
so
continue
to
pray
for
him
as
he
and
the
family
goes
through
this
difficult
period
of
time
he's
still
in
ICU.
