Kankakee County Criminal Justice Meeting 4/10/2019 7:30AM

A
I've
not
received
anything
for
public
comment.
Is
there
any
public
comment
at
this
time?
Any
public
comment:
everybody
received
a
copy
of
the
minutes
for
March
13th
2019.
Take
a
motion
to
approve
mr.
Bern
second
by
mr.
Fairfield.
Any
questions
all
in
favor,
say:
aye
opposed
same
sign.
Motion
carries
judge
coming
in
for
the
traffic
criminal
Assessment
Act.
C
The
the
book
is
about
two
or
three
hundred
pages
long,
and
it
is
work
in
progress,
because
the
state
legislature
passed
this
law
and
then
the
office
of
administrative
courts
is
responsible
for
coming
up
with
the
procedures
to
implement
the
law.
So
I
am
actually
right.
Now,
just
I
know
most
of
you
here,
but
I
am
sitting
now
in
the
aggravated
traffic
call,
which
is
the
duis
the
driving
revokes
and
suspended
the
death
cases,
DUI
death
cases
and
I'm
taking
or
have
taken,
judge
Tung
gates
spot
there
in
courtroom
200
when
she
retired.
C
So
the
access
to
justice
Act
was
passed
in
2013
and
they
had
a
goal
of
improving
access
to
legal
information,
resources
and
assistance
for
all
litigants,
regardless
of
income
or
circumstances.
So
this
task
force
in
2013
was
looking
at
all
of
the
fines
and
cost
throughout
the
state
and
what
they
came
up
with
in
2016.
They
adopted
five
core
principles
and
I.
Think
it's
important
just
to
understand
why
the
state
legislature
did
what
they
did
to
understand
what
these
five
core
principles
were.
C
C
So
typically,
our
government
is
no
different
than
any
other
County
government
we've
had
a
lot
of
add-on
costs
to
try
to
help
supplement
and
fund
the
court
system,
they're
saying
basically
the
opposite.
The
county
government
has
to
fund
it,
not
on
the
backs
of
the
litigants
and
the
defendants.
The
amount
of
assessment
should
not
impede
access
to
the
courts
and
should
be
waived
to
the
extent
possible
for
indigent
litigants
and
the
working
poor.
That's
a
big
part
of
this
statute
assessment
should
be
simple,
easy
to
understand
and
uniform
to
the
extent
possible.
Number.
C
Four
assessments
should
be
directly
related
to
the
operation
of
the
court
system
in
number
five.
The
General
Assembly
should
periodically
review
all
assessments
to
determine
if
they
should
be
adjusted
or
repealed.
So
that's
that's
one
interesting
aspect
as
they
set
these
these
assessments
and
there's
no
provision
for
any
increases,
so
they
have
to
go
back
to
the
legislature.
One
other
point
that
just
popped
into
mind:
it
sunsets
after
about
18
months,
so
June
1st
of
2021,
this
complete
law
sunsets,
unless
they
of
course
extend
it.
C
So
what
they've
done
try
to
explain
it
in
a
nutshell,
is
they've
taken.
They
address
both
the
civil
aspect
of
the
court
system
and
the
criminal
aspect
on
the
civil
aspect
they
set
up
for
schedules
and
when
you
file
a
case,
whether
it's
small
claims
or
an
at
law
case
or
whatever
civil
case
you
file,
there
is
a
pigeonhole
I'll
call
it
one
of
those
four
schedules
that
your
case
will
fall
into
and
that
will
be
the
filing
fee.
It's
all
set
it
had.
It
has
changed
a
little
bit
the
civil
aspect.
C
There
are
a
little
bit
less
than
what
what
they
have
been.
Maybe
a
ten
percent,
or
so
there
I,
don't
see
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
changes
in
in
the
civil
aspect.
The
criminal
aspect
has
changed
substantially
and
there
are
now
13
or
will
be
July
1st.
This
all
takes
effect
July
1st.
So
that's
why
we're
kind
of
scrambling.
C
Get
this
in
place,
but
the
criminal
aspect
has
13
different
schedules,
so
your
your
crime
is
going
to
fit
into
one
of
those
13
pigeon
holes.
Now
it's
pretty
pretty
haphazard.
The
judge
will
will
issue
a
fine
and
then
we
have
our
court
costs
and
we
have
a
laundry
list
of
court
costs
that
have
been
set
by
statute
have
been
added
on
overtime
and
a
lot
of
those
are
going
away
and
they're
changing
so
I
thought
the
best
way
to
explain
this
is
to
give
you
an
example
of
one
of
the
13.
C
It's
the
one
that
I
deal
with,
probably
the
most.
It
would
be,
the
the
misdemeanor
driving
under
the
influence
charge
DUI
or
what
we
call
operating
under
the
influence.
If
it
involves
a
snowmobile
or
a
boat,
they
all
fall
in
the
same
category.
Right
now,
a
typical
plea
dollar
amount
for
a
DUI.
If
a
person
came
in
and
was
their
first
DUI,
that's
why
it's
a
misdemeanor
and
they're
eligible
for
court
supervision
on
their
first
DUI,
a
typical
fine
would
be
$500.
That
is
actually
the
minimum
by
the
statute.
C
It
is
a
Class
A
misdemeanor,
so
it
doesn't
have
a
potential
sentence
up
to
364
days
in
jail
and
up
to
a
$2,500,
fine
or
both
jail
and
a
fine.
So
typically
on
a
minimum.
First
offense
there'll
be
a
$500,
fine
and
then
added
to
that
by
statute
is
a
$750.
What
we
call
DUI
equipment
fee
to
the
state,
then
there's
additional
costs
of
nine
hundred
and
eighty
three
dollars
and
that's
broken
up
into
about
20
different
categories.
C
Well,
I'm
just
gonna
read
these
because
this
is
what
we're
dealing
with
I,
don't
even
know
what
all
these
are
to
tell
you
the
truth,
but
there's
a
circuit
clerk
fee,
I'm,
not
gonna,
give
you
the
amounts,
but
just
to
give
you
an
idea,
because
I'm
gonna
compare
this
to
what
the
new
statutes
gonna
say.
So,
there's
a
circuit
clerk,
the
court
automations,
the
document
storage
fee
police
operation
fund,
a
court
fee
state's
attorney
fee,
the
state's
attorney
auto
fee,
probation
and
court
systems.
The
security
fee
trauma
fund.
C
C
The
Crime
Stoppers
bun
Victims
Fund
surcharge
in
this
case,
the
surcharges
$352
Allied's,
the
law
enforcement
camera
fund,
spinal-cord,
the
prison
review
vehicle
fee
clerk
operations
and
administration,
feed
muni
municipal
fund,
the
child
advocacy
fee,
fire
prevention
fund,
fire
truck
revenue
fund
clerk
operations,
administration,
Illinois,
State,
Police,
Merritt
board.
All
those
numbers
total
nine
hundred
eighty
three
dollars
so
the
end
of
the
day
that
defendant
is
getting
assess,
fines
and
costs
in
the
amount
of
two
thousand
two
hundred
and
thirty
three
dollars
under
the
new
statute,
July.
First,
the
misdemeanor
DUI
offense.
C
The
judge
still
has
the
discretion
to
issue
whatever
find
that
they
want
to
issue.
So
it
can
be
anything
up
to
twenty
five
hundred
dollars,
but
assuming
that
it's
it's
for
that
particular
defendant.
It's
still
five
hundred
dollars
just
to
compare
apples
to
apples.
The
new
total
assessment,
then,
for
that
offense,
would
be
thirteen
hundred
and
eighty
one
dollars
and
it's
all
set
up
to
be
divided.
C
322
goes
to
the
county
treasurer
and
then
that
goes
into
a
through
J
different
funds.
Here:
court,
automation,
fund
court
document,
storage
fund,
Circuit,
Court,
Clerk
operations
and
administrative
fun
circuit
clerk,
electronic
citation
fund
and
then
the
county's
general
fund.
That's
two
hundred
twenty-five
dollars
of
that
three:
twenty
to
ten
dollars
into
the
Child
Advocacy
Center
fund.
That's
the
one
agency
that
did
survive
this
new
law,
the
others
that
I
mentioned
the
team
court
Crimestoppers
some
of
the
other
funds
are
gone.
C
There's
even
a
new
one
that
they've
added
I
think
it's
the
merit
board,
Public
Safety
fund
and
there's
about
the
same
number
of
categories
there.
So
that's
going
to
that's
going
to
change
it.
It
will
make
it
somewhat
simpler
because
right
now,
if
the
fine
changes,
the
cost
changes
well,
because
the
costs
there's
one
of
these
items
in
the
costs
that
are
calculated
based
on
the
amount
of
the
fine,
so
the
higher
the
fine,
the
higher
the
cost.
C
Now,
what
we're
gonna
see,
though,
is
that
the
indigent
defendants
have
an
opportunity
to
file
a
waiver
of
these
assessments
and
they
have
to
file
it
within
30
days
of
being
sentenced.
So
what
we're
anticipating
is
that
almost
every
defendant
in
our
system
is
going
to
the
end
of
their
sentence.
They're
going
to
take
a
piece
of
paper
and
the
clerk
has
to
actually
post
notices
around
the
courthouse
that
they
have
the
right
to
do
this
and
they're
going
to
ask
for
a
waiver
of
that
assessment.
C
If
your
income
is
at
that
level
or
less
you're,
probably
going
to
get
a
hundred
percent
waiver
of
your
assessment
and
there's
other
partial
waivers
of
assessments,
if
you're
at
a
hundred
and
fifty
percent
or
if
you're
at
two
hundred
percent
you're
going
to
get
a
partial
waiver
of
that
assessment,
all
that
is
going
to
require
a
further
hearing
by
the
court
after
sentencing
to
determine
what
a
waiver
of
assessment
to
collect
financial
information
with
regard
to
that
particular
defendant
to
determine.
You
know
if
they're
eligible
for
the
assessment
or
not.
C
Now,
in
addition
to
these
numbers,
there
are
there's
another
set
of
assessments
called
conditional
assessments
and
those
have
to
do
with
the
specific
charges.
For
example,
drug
cases,
sex
cases
DUI
cases
they
have
additional
assessments
that
are
on
top
of
the
regular
assessments
and
those
are
not
subject
to
the
waiver.
C
C
A
couple
other
just
side
notes
here.
The
waiver
does
not
apply
to
the
Illinois
vehicle
code
violations,
so
it's
gonna
apply
to
all
the
felonies
that
don't
involve
motor
vehicles,
so
if
it
does
involve
motor
vehicles,
the
the
DUI
is
the
driving
suspended.
Those
are
not
going
to
be
subject
to
this
waiver,
but
there
are
additional
requests
that
can
be
made
to
the
court
to
reduce
the
fines,
and
we
anticipate
that
some
of
that
will
be
going
on.
C
There's
also
provisions
to
convert
some
of
the
fines
to
public
service
work
would
be
$4.00
off
for
every
hour
of
public
service
work
that
you
do
and
they
can
request
that
as
well.
They
can
also,
if
they're
in
a
substance,
abuse
treatment
program
as
part
of
their
treatment
and
that
cost
them
a
thousand
dollars.
They
can
ask
the
court
to
apply
that
thousand
of
their
fines
and
costs
and
their
assessments
I'm.
C
Sorry
just
to
the
assessment
just
to
the
scheduled
assessments,
not
to
the
not
to
the
fines,
not
to
the
conditional
assessment,
I
think,
overall,
it's
going
to
make
it
easier
once
once
sandy
gets
this
all
set
up.
It's
it's
be
it's
a
nightmare
to
get
set
up
right
now,
but
it
will
be
easier
once
it
all
gets
done,
because
there's
a
lot
less
categories,
a
lot,
less
divisions,
but
it
is
a
nightmare,
as
I
said,
to
get
this
set
up
and
get
the
programming
and
the
computers
changed
to
acknowledge
these
changes.
C
I
know
I
talked
to
Andy
before
the
meeting.
What's
your
all
interested
in
and
I,
don't
have
an
answer,
but
it
is
how
this
is
going
to
affect
the
financial
coffers
of
the
county.
I,
don't
know
I
think
generally,
the
numbers
are
less
because
that's
what
the
state
legislature
was
trying
to
do
was
lessen
the
burden
on
the
defendant
and
shift
more
of
the
burden
to
other
resources.
So
I
think
it's
going
to
be
less
I.
Think
it'll
be
more
than
ten
percent
will
be
more
than
thirty
or
forty
percent
I,
don't
think
so.
C
C
It's
a
House
bill
198,
and
it
also
involves
converting
the
total
amount.
Do
not
just
the
assessments,
with
the
total
fines
and
cost
on
the
traffic
cases,
converting
that
to
public
service
work
at
the
rate
of
ten
dollars
for
every
hour,
every
hour
of
public
service
work
to
do
you
get
a
$10
credit
towards
your
finding
some
cost
again.
A
partial
waiver
is
as
possible
and
on
that
statute
you
can
go
back
to
years
of
your
fines
and
costs.
What
the
problem
was.
C
The
problem
is
right
now
is
people
get
in
these
downward
spirals
with
these
traffic
cases
and
they
get
two
or
three
and
they're
young?
They
don't
have
a
lot
of
income.
They
can't
pay
the
fines
they
get
suspended
now
they're
in
a
more
serious
charge,
driving
suspended
than
misdemeanor
categories,
and
they
just
get
in
this
downward
spiral,
and
they
can't
dig
themselves
out
it's
impossible
to
Biggins
those
up
because
it
gets
into
the
thousands
of
dollars.
So
this
is
that
particular
statute
designed
to
help
those
people
basically
get
their
driver's
license
back.
C
We
do
give
them
in
court
will
give
them
several
opportunities
to
pay
off
their
previous
fines
and
go
back
and
get
their
driver's
license.
That's
all
we
want.
You
know
this
is
not
a
an
offense
normally,
where
people
get
hurt,
it's
just
a
an
offense
where
you're
not
following
the
law,
getting
keeping
your
driver's
license
up-to-date
having
your
insurance
in
effect,
so
they
you
know,
our
goal
is
and
I
think
our
all
of
our
goals
should
be
to
get
people
back
on
the
street
but
be
license
and
be
legal
and
have
insurance.
C
D
C
D
C
Yeah
community
service,
we
do
have
a
community
service
program
now
and
there
are
a
number
of
defendants
on
community
service
and
that's
monitored
if
it's
a
serious
case,
it's
monitored
by
probation
if
it's
won
a
minor
traffic
case
or
like
I've,
just
a
simple
DUI:
they
if
they
have
a
BAC
over
0.16,
they
have
to
by
statute,
do
a
hundred
hours
of
public
service
work,
so
that
is
monitored
by
the
courts.
But
yes,
that's
a
possibility
again.
It
takes
right
now.
C
A
C
Well,
we've
and
we've
discussed
the
issue
of
teen
court
at
our
board
meeting
I'm
I'm
still
on
the
board.
I
was
involved
in
getting
that
started,
but
we
don't
have
an
answer
for
that.
We
hope
that
there
will
be
enough
money
coming
in
to
fund
it
from
the
county,
but
that's
maybe
wishful
thinking
at
this
point.
Since
we
don't
know
exactly
what's
going
to
be
coming
in
and
what's
not,
but
because
there's
probably
going
to
be
a
reduction,
we
may
have
to
look
for
other
sources
or
grants.
E
C
F
F
C
It'll
be
substantially
more
we're
getting
requests.
Now
we
have
four
years,
people
come
in
and
say:
well,
I
don't
have
any
money
can
I
do
public
service
work
instead
and
say?
No
sorry,
you
know
they
can't
pay
it.
You
can't
pay
it.
We
understand
that
and
just
do
the
best
you
can
so
there
will
be
that
option
available,
so
the
judges
will
be
able
to
say.
Okay
go.
Do
you
know
a
hundred
hours
of
public
service
work
and
that'll
cover
your
four
hundred
dollar
fine.
G
F
G
G
C
G
Exactly
but
if
you
look
at
you
know
the
median
income
in
the
county
and
all
those
different
things
which
may
be
the
guideline
that
we
end
up
using
to
estimate
this,
that's
why
thirty
forty
percent
might
be
a
really
good
court
security
Sheriff.
Where
does
that
come
out
of,
and
that
comes
from
the
fees
that
are
assessed
that
are
not
part
of
minds
which.
H
C
So
they'll
be
a
little
bit
of
discretion.
There
there's
more
discretion
on
the
fines.
We
still
have
the
discretion
to
levy
fines.
You
know
the
example
I
gave
of
the
$500
fine
on
the
DUI.
You
know
we
could
assess
it
at
a
thousand,
but
that
now
that
is
discretionary,
but-
and
that's
also
based
on
the
defendants,
financial
ability
to
pay
the
fine.
C
C
G
C
There's
four
four
of
us
that
do
criminal
work
and
judge
Eriksen,
judge
Elliott
and
then
myself
and
judge,
Dickinson
and
I
expect
these
to
come
in
on
a
regular
basis
and
if
they
show
with
their
application
that
they
are
indigent
they're,
probably
going
to
get
an
automatic
waiver
without
a
hearing.
But
if
they
show
well
I'm
making
you
know
forty
five
thousand
and
I
got
two
kids.
There
might
be
a
little
bit
more,
so
the
judge
has
discretion
whether
or
not
to
grant
it
based
on
the
application
or
to
conduct
a
full
hearing.
C
E
C
F
C
A
J
There's
so
many
variables
I
think
you
asked
the
one
because
I
was
looking
at
when
we
parallel
the
fees
with
that
to
the
curve
the
court
current
charges
versus
the
fees
is
about
to
be
that
we
have
to
be
guided
by.
Will
it
be
a
substantial
difference
because
it
looks
like
you're
still
at
a
twenty
five
just
the
way
it's
allocated
to
where
it's
going.
J
That
kind
of
concerns
us
at
this
point,
given
the
fact
that,
like
the
city
of
Kankakee
in
the
school
district,
is
one
hundred
percent
poverty
because
they
get
the
free
lunches
of
things
here.
However,
it
looks
like
if
you
look
at
certain
areas
is
almost
certain
that
these
individuals
are
going
to
get
a
waiver
not
absolute,
because
you
do
have
working
individuals
that
are
there,
but
because
of
the
great
number
of
when
you
have
a
larger
family,
the
cost
is
I
can
make
thirty
and
I'm
one
person.
J
C
E
A
A
L
Yes,
good
morning,
my
name
is
Joe
Cosmin
I'm,
the
first
assistant
mr.
row
is
on
trial
this
week.
That's
why
I'm
here
in
his
stead
after
the
March
grand
jury
in
2019,
we
have
indicted
263
cases
in
2018.
At
this
time
there
were
one
hundred
ninety
two
cases
indicted
and
in
2016
148
cases.
So
from
last
year
were
up
36%
from
2016
or
up
77%.
L
A
A
M
M
One
thing,
I'll
point
out
is
I
looked
at
last
year's
report
at
this
time
after
the
first
quarter,
then
to
March
and
everything
mirrors
as
far
as
contacts
caseload
everything's
about
the
same,
but
there's
two
different,
two
areas
that
were
very
different
and
last
year.
At
this
time
we
had
detained
49
minors
for
a
total
of
eleven
hundred
one
thousand
one
hundred
twenty
nine
days.
Nine
hundred
twenty
nine
days
of
River
Valley
compared
you
can
see
on
this
report.
M
G
E
M
G
M
G
M
M
M
That's
all
I
have
all
it
with
the
fines
and
the
new.
The
change
is
coming.
July
1st,
we're
obviously
watching
that.
Looking
at
that,
there's
a
lot
to
it.
I
think
the
impact
on
us
is
going
to
be
minimal
as
far
as
far
as
they
took
away
a
couple,
$10
fees
that
were
assessed
that
went
to
us,
but
they
added
a
$20
fee.
M
A
H
H
H
H
Yesterday,
the
full
board
approved
the
rate
increase
that
took
effect
on
March
1st
for
housing.
One
of
the
things
I
I
was
out
of
town
yesterday,
so
I,
don't
I
haven't
had
time
to
sit
down
and
watch,
but
a
couple
other
things
that
it
affects
is
our
hourly
rate
for
our
transports.
Also,
one
of
two
dollars
an
hour
from
38
to
40,
so
there'll
be
a
slight
increase
in
that
and,
of
course,
the
mileage
stays
the
same,
but
the
mileage
fluctuates
based
fluctuates
based
on
the
federal
rate,
so
that
is
consistent
across
the
board.
H
H
H
Also,
in
addition
to
that,
because
of
our
numbers
and
not
necessarily
our
numbers,
but
the
numbers
nationwide
ice
is
going
to
install,
we
have
one
unit
right
now
installed
in
our
jail.
It's
called
vtc,
which
is
video
monitoring
to
court
in
Chicago,
so
that
it
limits
a
little
bit
of
the
transports
that
we
needed
to
transport
to
Chicago
because
of
our
numbers
and
because
of
how
much
court
time
these
individuals
require
they
are
going
to
install
a
second
unit.
H
The
first
unit,
in
addition
to
the
second
unit,
now
doesn't
cost
us
anything
that
is
strictly
done
by
the
federal
government,
so
there
is
no
cost
to
us
to
do
that.
It
just
adds
a
second
monitor,
a
second
connection
to
the
courts
in
Chicago,
so
but
that
is
no
cost
to
us.
So
those
are
good
things.
Questions
on
that
our
transports
have
stayed
steady
and
consistent.
I
mentioned
at
the
Finance
Committee.
That
metro
is
donating.
H
Two
buses
to
us,
they've
just
purchased
recently
a
number
of
new
buses
and
their
board
has
already
approved
the
donation
of
two
buses.
These
buses
have
miles
on
them,
they're
used.
We
are
currently
spending
some
money
on
getting
them
fabricated
for
security,
and
we
will
monitor
the
actual
cost
of
what
it
costs
us
to
operate.
Those
from
the
standpoint
of
maintenance
and
everything
else
they've
been
maintained.
If
there's
one
thing
that
Metro
does,
is
they
maintain
those
buses
very
well?
H
H
H
H
April
is
distracted
driving
month.
We
will
be
doing
and
we
are
doing
details
on
distracted
driving,
as
most
of
you
know,
part
of
the
problem
with
catching
a
distracted
driver
and
I'm
sure
everybody
in
this
room
has
probably
experienced
it
at
one
time
or
another.
When
you're
talking
on
your
phone,
you
see
a
mark
squad
car,
you
bring
your
phone
down,
so
nobody
sees
you
talking
on
the
phone,
it's
human
nature,
so
it's
difficult
to
do
it
in
in
mark
cars.
So
we
are
sending
out
some
of
our
unmarked
cars
to
try
to
do
that.
H
To
try
to
keep
people
safe,
I
mean
that's,
you
know,
that's
what
it's
all
about.
I
mean
we're
not
right
out
there
trying
to
write
distracted
driving
tickets,
just
to
you
know,
bring
in
revenue
we're
out
there.
You
know
looking
for
distracted
drivers
to
keep
them
safe
and
keep
other
people
safe,
because
that's
normally
who
gets
punished.
The
one
driving
is
hit
somebody
else
and
they
weren't
doing
anything
wrong.
So
also
I'm
sure
that
you,
the
statewide,
slowdown,
move
over
campaign.
H
Interestingly
enough,
the
Illinois
sheriffs
Association
is
is
encouraging
us
to
participate
in
in
what
they
exactly
what
it
says,
state
a
slow
down
move
over
and
we
have
and
we
will
continue-
and
we
won't.
We
won't
continue
it
just
for
this
month
is.
This
is
something
that
we
will
continue
to
do.
Root
I,
don't
want
to
use
the
term
routinely
because
I
don't
want
to
go
to
a
routine,
but
we
will
continue
to
do
this
periodically.
H
We
actually
went
out
shortly
after
the
third
one
when
this,
when
the
state
really
emphasized
it.
It's
been
on
the
news:
it's
the
lead
story
in
the
news
every
day.
Everybody
knows
about
it
and
we
are
out
there
20
minutes
and
got
three
people,
so
they
don't.
You
know
lights
for
emergency
personnel,
fire
police,
tow
trucks,
all
of
them.
They
are
all
when
you
see
them
on
the
on
the
interstate
slow
down,
get
in
the
left.
Lane
get
away
from
them,
keep
keep
our
policemen
safe.
They
are
out
there
doing
all
of
us
a
service.
H
H
We
are
in
the
process
of
looking
at
assigning
someone
specifically
for
civil
process
papers
so
that
our
guys
on
the
road
can
do
what
they
do
respond
to
calls,
because,
when
they're
serving
papers,
they're
not
responding
to
calls
and
it's
important
that
our
guys
are
out
there
responding
to
calls.
So
we
are
we're
in
the
process
of
you
know
when
our
staffing
gets
up
a
little
bit,
which
the
board
was
kind
enough
to
allow
us
to
do.
We
will
assign
someone
to
strictly
do
civil
civil
process.
A
J
J
J
H
Well
and
that's
a
great
point
because
I've
I've
often
said
distracted
driving,
isn't
just
cell
phones.
How
many
times
do
we
pass
by
somebody
and
they're
putting
on
makeup
they're
shaving
they're
eating
a
hamburger
I
mean
there's
a
lot
of
ways
to
be
distracted
while
you're
driving,
but
but
it's
specific
in
the
statute
about
hands-free
so
and
I
yeah.
It's
so
there's
a
lot
of
ways
to
be
distracted.
Unfortunately,
your
wife's
yonechi
in
one
ear
I
mean
it.
You
know
that's.
That
would
be
that.
H
H
Hopefully
we
will
be
able
to
replace
them
in
2020
we
will
bring
numbers
prices
for
2020s,
don't
come
out
till
May
or
June
so
I
plan
on
bringing
that
to
this
committee
to
forward,
possibly
the
finance
community
full
board
to
continue
to
upgrade
our
fleet,
which
are
our
fleet.
People
are
doing
a
great
job
with
soap,
just
a
heads
up
on
that.
L
H
Was
kind
of
shocking
I
guess
maybe
not
shocking,
but
so
shortly
after
Dwight
approved,
everything
back
in
must
have
been
March.
Two
days
later,
an
RFP
came
out
from
headquarters
in
Washington
DC
for
a
facility,
some
of
the
things
in
an
RFP
weren't
the
same
thing
as
what
Dwight
was
proposing
to
their
residence.
So
obviously
they
still
have
to
be
selected.
They
have
been
doing
this.
They
have
been
looking
for
a
facility
in
the
Midwest
and
for
the
United
States
for
over
20
years.
H
We,
in
fact
the
sheriff's
office
has
submitted
three
responses
to
RFPs
over
the
course
of
time.
Since
2009
is
something
going
to
happen
now,
it's
hard
to
say:
if
it
does,
it
won't
be
for
five
years
tops
I
mean
it'll
be
a
long
time.
The
process,
the
one
advantage
we
have
is,
since
the
majority
of
our
detainees
do
have
criminal
records.
A
lot
of
these
private
facilities
don't
like
to
take
those
individuals,
so
I
would
imagine
that
we
would
still
be
okay
down
the
road,
but
we're
it's
something
that
we're
certainly
staying.
H
Facility
and
and
don't
don't
confuse
the
dwight
prison
that
that
closed
with
what
they're
proposing
dwight
prison
is.
There
is
no
way
that
they
could
get
that
building
back
in
any
shape
to
house
ice
because
of
ices
strict
standards,
so
they
are
proposing
a
brand
new
facility
that
they
would
be
able
to
house
according
to
the
company,
their
housing
non-criminals.
But
according
to
the
RFP
they're
looking
for
places
to
house
both.
N
A
A
H
However,
some
of
you
probably
saw
a
couple
weeks
ago
when
our
deputies
went
into
a
house
and
rescued
a
I,
think
it
was
a
boa
constrictor
python
or
something
I,
don't
know
what
it
was
a
snake
and
I
don't
want
any
part
of
it.
So
and
it's
a
short
note,
it
says
on
behalf
of
the
People
for
the
Ethical
Treatment
of
Animals
and
are
more
than
6.5
million
members
they'd
like
to
thank
our
deputies
for
coming
to
the
aid
of
a
boa
constrictors,
a
boa
constrictor
trapped
inside
a
smoke-filled
residence
on
March
28th.
H
Thanks
to
the
compassionate
actions
of
your
team,
this
animal
was
rescued
from
a
dangerous
situation,
has
been
reunited
with
his
or
her
grateful
owner.
Members
of
your
community,
including
those
who
slither
walk
or
fly,
are
lucky
to
have
such
kind
first
responders,
who
don't
hesitate
to
help
humans
or
other
animals
in
need.
So
that
was
a
very
nice
letter
from
from
PETA
that
we
received
deputies,
Calvin,
Zirkle
and
deputies
Doug
Hagan
Hayden
are
the
officers
who
went
in
the
house
and
I'm
sure
that
the
boa
constrictor
is
probably
lucky.
H
It
was
them
and
not
me
so
I
of
our
other
deputies,
who
probably
wouldn't
have
gone
in
either
to
get
a
snake,
but
they
did
and
and
everything
turned
out
good.
So
just
another
example
of
the
amazing
people
that
we
have
touching
on
to
other
things
that
and
one
of
the
things
that
Judge
cunning
Tain's
said.
H
The
fee
changes
you
know
it's
it's
just
another
way
to
stick
it
to
the
taxpayers,
because
the
taxpayers
are
gonna,
ultimately
be
the
one
that
are
paying
the
bills
for
these
people,
and
these
are
the
people
who
are
burdened
on
our
system.
They
are
the
ones
causing
this,
not
not
the
law-abiding
citizens
out
there
who
you
know,
follow
the
law
don't
get
in
trouble.
These
people
are
burdening
our
system,
and
now
our
state
legislature,
in
their
infinite
wisdom,
wants
them
to
stop
paying
for
the
things
that
they
do.
H
The
things
that
they
create,
it
is
the
absolute
most
ridiculous
thing
I've
ever
seen
in
my
life,
and-
and
you
know
they
typically
the
legislators
make
laws
without
knowing
the
effects
of
how
it
affects
everybody.
All
they're,
worried
about
is
just
making
sure
that
poor
Johnny,
who
just
robbed
the
bank,
doesn't
have
to
pay
five
hundred
dollars
in
fines
and
it's
absolutely
repulsive,
very
frustrating.
H
H
I
think
there's
some
advantages
to
having
it
and
I
think
it's
something
that
we
need
to
explore,
but
I
think
it's
got
to
be
done
right
and
it's
got
to
be
worth
the
investment
in
getting
these
people.
You
you
run
into
some
other
problems
with.
If
you,
if
you
go
to
Park
District's
or
if
you
go
to
other
government
agencies,
you
get
into
some
union
issues
that
are
out
there
as
well.
H
J
J
It's
a
good
opportunity
for
an
individual
to
recompense
their
whatever
the
action
is.
The
fees
is
concerned,
I
used
to
take
it
like
$1,
divided
into
I,
remember,
Matt
or
whatever
the
minimum
wage
was
about
into
the
number
of
the
family
come
up
with,
but
now
I
saw
a
way
of
work
and
then
I
saw
at
one
time
where
it
didn't
work
as
well.
I
think
there
was
a
certain
pastor
that
was
just
writing
them
all
forever
and
and
that
won
the
case
in
he
got
arrested
and
it
sent
the
news
all
the
way
through.
J
J
He
you
got
to
work
and
he's
gonna
make
sure
you
work
so
for
those
individuals
that
if
you
work,
we
always
want
to
be
part
of
the
process
and
not
let
there
be
a
scapegoat,
because,
basically,
when
you
allow
them
to
escape
it
it
it
in
essence
gives
them
a
free
pass
to,
and
it
also
allows
you
to
now
go
from
clergy
to
criminal.
So
you
don't
want
that
to
happen
as
either
so
I'm.
A
K
Hour,
as
you
can
see,
our
statistics
for
the
month
from
December
to
March
we're
still
holding
pretty
good
on
autopsies
we've
right,
a
little
bit
from
average
around
four
and
a
half
two.
We
have
a
seven
in
March,
which
is
way
under
which
2018
or
17
we're
moving
right
along
trying
to
hold
everything
back
the
way.
However,
we
can
I'll
take
any
questions
on
any
of
that.
D
A
D
K
A
A
K
We're
I'm
listening
to
all
of
your
house
bills
there
and
we
were
able
to
knock
our
House
bill
House
bill
zero
106.
Thank
you
for
those
that
sit
in
witness
lips
on
that.
It
helped
quite
considerably
they
got
bombarded
on
that.
That
would
have
costs
us
a
large
amount
of
money
out
of
our
area.
So
thank
you.
K
We're
continuing
doing
work
on
we'll
be,
in
her
sure,
high
school
coming
up
here
for
a
prom
program,
it'll
be
in
Manteno.
That's
in
your
district
I'd
like
to
see
to
come
to
it
there
and
learn
exactly
what
we're
doing
out
there
for
the
kids
and
talk
a
little
bit.
The
state's
attorney
will
be
out
of
both
of
ours
to
be
able
to
talk
about
the
laws
and
also
about
what
happens
if
you're
caught
with
with
with
drugs,
so
also
I'm
gonna
send
these
off
to
your
email.
Out
of
here.
K
It's
a
very
important
point
about
marijuana.
We
have
one
more
form
coming
to
Kent
key
community
college,
sponsored
by
the
pledge
of
life.
Also,
the
n-double-a-cp
Youth
Council
Hispanic
partnership
and,
along
with
the
kinky
States
attorney
in
my
office,
is
sponsoring
as
marijuana
youth
for
our
community.
K
We
have
a
Robert
Moore
chairman
of
the
criminal
justice,
for
the
n-double-a-cp
branches
of
Illinois
will
be
there
Sheriff
Justin
Smith
from
Laramie
County
Sheriff's
Office
on
a
Colorado.
When
you
hear
what's
happening
in
Colorado
in
California
in
Washington
State,
you
scratch
your
head
and
say
why
do
we
want
this
and
honor?
K
F
K
Always
happy
to
see
the
people
from
the
county
board
there
to
see
that
what's
going
on
in
your
community
and
in
our
County,
we
bring
this
to
try
to
stop
this
because
it's
gonna
be
unbelievable
and
what
its
gonna
cost
us
and
you
don't
think,
there's
gonna
be
panhandles
a
black
market
out
there
they're
all
over
Colorado
and
and
then
putting
the
different
things
into
the
marijuana.
You
want
it
to
be
eight
right
now,
it's
18
to
25
percent
pure
THC,
and
they
make
it
up
to.
K
If
you
do
a
little
waxing,
which
is
out
there
in
these
dispositions
area,
you
can
get
up
to
90
percent
THC.
These
are
people
are
gonna
mix
that
with
alcohol
I've
already
seen
an
upward
shot
in
our
alcohol
and
th
season.
Our
fatalities,
already
I'm,
just
warning,
like
I,
did
in
2012
pay
attention
to
this
bill
when
it
comes
up
talk
to
your
representative,
because
we've
got
one
representative
right
now,
that's
don't
know
which
way
she's
gonna
go,
and
then
he
got
one.
That's
co-sponsoring
the
bill.
K
K
A
N
I've
discussed
the
matter
a
little
bit
with
Andy
and
he
he
brought
up
one
of
the
questions
I
had
and
he
had
already
had
the
same
one.
It
could
dramatically
affect
the
renewals
that
they
need
to
do
and
when
they
need
to
go
to
do
something
else
could
really
potentially
slow
down
what
they
need
to
do,
because
that's
how
a
hundred
percent,
how
they
funded
all
the
computers
in
the
court
system.
So
if
that
money's
gonna
go
down
or
go
away,
that
that's
a
big
deal
and
I
really
don't
know
how
you
would
fund
it.
G
The
problems
that
we
don't
know
until
we
know
because
we
don't
have
any
data
that
shows
we
can
gas
based
on,
like
I,
said
the
median
income,
but
until
we
get
six
months
through
this,
we
won't
see
what
the
impact
is.
It's
kind
of
frightening.
How
do
you
and
that's
half
way
through
the
budget
here
yeah?
It's?
It
could
tank
the
budget
for
those
departments
substantially
and,
as
the
sheriff
said,
we
already
have
to
to
dig
court
security
out
because
that's
always
under
water,
and
that
currently
is
now
it's
almost
gonna
be
negligible.
