Joseph Gliniewicz’s personnel file this week not only highlighted a series of disturbing misdeeds by the officer, but it underscored a village and police leadership that for years either overlooked his transgressions, or simply ignored them. The files make clear some village officials knew, or should have known, about Gliniewicz’s actions, but still promoted him. Allegations of sexual harassment, threatening behaviors and problem drinking are just a few of the offenses in his 264-page personnel

FOX LAKE – After the shocking conclusion to the death investigation of Fox Lake Police Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office has taken over a subsequent theft investigation, a sheriff’s official said. Handled by the Lake County Major Crime Task Force, the death investigation on Nov. 4 concluded with authorities announcing Gliniewicz, 52, “cleverly staged” his own suicide after embezzling money for at least seven years from the youth Explorer program he led. “Now that the death investigation is over, the task force is done,” Lake County Sheriff’s Detective Chris Covelli said, adding the “possible criminal misconduct” uncovered will be investigated by the sheriff’s office. “It will be a routine sheriff’s investigation, handled by the criminal investigations division,” he added. Covelli also mentioned, but did not expand on, an ongoing federal investigation that stems from the death investigation. Since the Nov. 4 announcement, a slew of troubling revelations have surfaced regarding the 30-year police veteran, from accusations of misconduct from fellow officers to an attempt to “put a hit” on a Fox Lake administrator.

By JESSE CARPENDER editorial@lakecountyjournal.com GURNEE – Stephen Bastien wants everyone who leaves his confessional one-man show, “A Championship Life,” to be inspired to call loved ones. The next opportunity for audiences to be moved by his life-chronicling performance is Nov. 14 at the United Solo Festival on Theatre Row in New York City, where he’s been selected to perform. Bastien, 63, of Gurnee said he discovered acting is his true passion only 10 years ago when he took acting classes for the first time. Mary Reynard Liss, one of Bastien’s acting coaches, a company member at Redtwist Theatre and a well-known figure in the Chicago theatre community, said, “Steve is a very generous actor and artist with pure intention and humanistic intent to create this story and share it.” Bastien said he didn’t write the show to make a million dollars. “I’m doing this to make a difference in people’s lives,” he said. He’s performed his show for audiences at Chicago’s Fillet of Solo Festival, Los Angeles’ Hollywood Fringe Festival, and New York’s One Festival. “Steve has lived a very unique life,” Liss said. “He was the last child in America to be placed in a sanatorium for tuberculosis [in 1963].” “[Tuberculosis] was a huge disease – people were in the hospital for their whole lives.” Bastien said. He was inspired to write about “what you learn from experiences you think you can’t survive.” His show also touches on the theme of listening to one’s inner voice. Another turning point in his life was when a priest tried to molest him, Bastien said. “Child abuse was not spoken of at that time. My father kicked me out of the house,” he said. Bastien told the story to a good friend and fellow actor, Joe Gandurski, who convinced him to write about his experi-
ences. The show has been five years in the making, he said. “I never looked at the past as something to regret. Stephen It’s something Bastien to learn from, grow from, and be a better person,” Bastien said. He said most people don’t think the stories of their lives are significant – that their experiences are “no big deal” – or they are guarded about sharing them. For Bastien, sharing his story has helped him put life into perspective, he said. “If I can help one person, sharing my story is powerful,” he said. The musical aspect of his show comes from a song he wrote when he was a teenager in the 1960s. “It’s a reconciliation song called ‘Only Mom,’ about the importance of realizing what mothers do for us,” he said. After his first performance of “A Championship Life” at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Fringe Festival, an audience member told Bastien the show made him realize a need to connect with his own mother. Since then, Bastien keeps in mind a goal of inspiring people to tell their loved ones how they feel. In choosing his medium, Bastien said he found kinship in the community of solo performers. “They do a wonderful job sharing their experiences. My [writing] has evolved to
where I can look at key events in my life and ask, ‘Why me? Why was I spared?’” Bastien’s show gained another layer of importance when he had a massive heart attack in March. The heart attack left no heart damage, an extremely rare occurrence, he said. The experience made him think back to other significant turns in his life, such as when he chose to forgo an opportunity to move to Nashville and become a musician. “There’s always another opportunity to do what you want to do,” Bastien said. “Follow your heart and you’ll go back to it.” Getting into acting at a mature age, Bastien is often surrounded by younger actors, he said, noting his experiences give him an advantage. “The older you are, you have an understanding of the depth and sense of the world and how to convey that,” he said. “When I see older people performing, there’s always a depth of character that young people may not have. They simply don’t have the experience.” Liss said the show demonstrates that “if people are grounded in their own resources they can overcome the odds and live the life they were meant to live.” Bastien hopes he will have the opportunity to perform “A Championship Life” locally in the near future.

Hiking with kids is a great way to connect them with nature and experience the outdoors on your own time and schedule. My advice is to start small and manageable. Be prepared to stop often and let your kids lead the way. One of our favorite spots to hike is Independence Grove (Libertyville). There’s paths of many lengths, indoor bathrooms and a great playground which also is the perfect incentive to keep kids walking just a little farther. Other great sites for hiking with little ones:

LAKE COUNTY – The Lake County Sheriff’s Office will bring extra traffic enforcement Nov. 16 to 29 for its Thanksgiving Holiday campaign, according to a news release. Deputies just concluded Halloween enforcement, which resulted in 53 citations, including four DUI arrests, 11 seat belt citations, one warrant arrest, two driving on a suspended license citations, one open alcohol citation, and 34 other traffic citations, the release stated. “Whether you are traveling out of state or in the area during the holidays, please make sure everyone stays safe and is wearing their seat belt,” Sheriff Mark Curran said. “Everyone in the vehicle, no matter where they are sitting, must wear a seat belt.” Additional patrols are funded from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Administration. The grants are administrated by the Illinois Department of Transportation’s Division of Traffic Safety.

Police body cameras create transparency, accountability There are many of our valiant police officers expressing their belief that these are the most difficult times to do their job. They always need the support of the general public, and I’m sure those days will soon return. Some mistakes have been made. When America was relieved of most of its military activities, someone fostered a policy to transfer much of the obsolete heavy military equipment, either for free or at a low cost, to law enforcement agencies across the country. To me, that was a policy mistake because it gave a wrongful military focus to the police departments. The public resentment against
SEEING IT THROUGH John S. Matijevich that use of massive military equipment was strong – so strong that President Barack Obama used his powers to reduce the militarism of law enforcement. Even without the above mis-focus, the acts of violence by civil abusers have increased to such an extent that police work has been more difficult in today’s environment. Allowing citizens to carry concealed weapons has caused incidents where these wrongdoers have committed mega-violent in-
cidents at churches, schools, theaters and other large gatherings. With rising acts of violence, there’s growing concern by many that law enforcement has diminished its longtime commitment toward its professionalism to preserve and protect all citizens. It will always be reinforced that law enforcement will hold true to its sworn duties to serve the public. More than a year ago, after these mega-violence incidents, President Obama pledged $263 million to procure police body cameras with training of 50,000 police officers to start a program of transparency and accountability in police-citizen
relations. Although Congress has not totally acted on the measure, much has begun both federally and locally to enact viable police body cameras throughout America. I have been asked my position on the use of cameras. Although some of the legislative acts have overlooked enacting guidelines in the use of body cameras to insure people’s privacy rights are not violated, those protections will come. In fact, Illinois was the first state to provide that if cameras were used, they would follow guidelines. My position is strong that police body cameras will be a win-win for the police, the public, and the accused. It’s
a fact that people behave and act better when they know they are being watched or recorded. It’s a two-fold safeguard because the transparency is also observed by the patrol officer who is inclined to act professionally and with less hostility. Cameras can be the ultimate transparency. Reports show that when cameras are in place incidents of abuse by either the officer or the person under arrest have been greatly reduced, up to 75 percent.

• AFTERMATH
Continued from page 11 Investigators said Gliniewicz spent the money on mortgage payments, gym memberships, adult websites and other personal expenses. His wife, Melodie, and son, D.J., also are believed to have been involved in the embezzlement scheme. A little more than a week after Gliniewicz’s death, Dehn hosted a showing of “Superman” as a fundraiser for the officer’s family. Dehn said about 1,000 people attended, raising just more than $5,000 that was quickly deposited in the “Lt. Gliniewicz Memorial Fund” at BMO Harris Bank. Bank spokesman Patrick O’Herlihy said Nov. 11 the funds in the account were being held pending the results of the police investigation into Gliniewicz, but he refused to provide information on how much had been deposited or withdrawn from the account. Dehn said even as the officer’s clean image unraveled this week, he never thought about trying to get it back. The Illinois Fraternal Or-

Mike was born on August 27, 1947, in Waukegan, IL, the son of Richard “Todd”and Elaine (Goode) Greene. He served in the United States Army as a Military Policeman during Vietnam. Mike was united in marriage to Mary Hale on May 30, 1972, in Waukegan. He worked as a police officer and retired as Chief from the Wauconda Police Department. Mike was an avid Chicago Bears fan, an outdoorsman, enjoyed carpentry, and spending time with his family and friends.

der of Police issued a statement asking the public to look past Gliniewicz’s actions and appreciate the efforts from the hundreds of officers who responded to the shooting. Scott Shalek, a former Fox Lake trustee who knew Gliniewicz, is trying to return the remainder of $10,000 he collected as part of a reward fund for the capture of the officer’s killers. He started issuing refunds the day of the suicide announcement. “He did a lot for the town,” Shalek said. “But it doesn’t matter how good you are.” He said he has less than $1,000 left to refund. Anyone who donated cash and has proof of their donation can call Shalek at his office at 815653-6966 or on his cellphone at 847-331-8008. Meanwhile, The 100 Club of Chicago, a group that offers support for the families of police officers killed in the line of duty, has asked for the Gliniewicz family to return a $15,000 donation. “This is an unfortunate thing to have to do and we, of course, feel for the family,” CEO Joe Ahern said in a statement. “We know, however, that
we must stay true to the mission and purpose of our organization and reserve financial benefits for families who lose a loved one in the line of duty.” Motorola Solutions has decided to give the Fox Lake Police Explorer Post the $50,000 originally intended as reward money, according to a news release from the company. The girls and parents who make up the Lemonade Brigade have not decided what to do with about $5,500 raised through lemonade stands, bracelet sales and an online GoFundMe account, parent Chrissy Christansen said. She posed the question to followers of the group’s Facebook page. “In the end, it’s not our money,” Christansen said. “It’s everyone else’s who donated.” At the Volo Auto Museum, Director Brian Grams said the museum raised $10,100 when it auctioned off a rare Camaro police car decorated with a tribute to Gliniewicz. Grams said he gave that money to Gliniewicz’s brother and didn’t think about asking for it to be returned despite the embezzlement.

Charming ‘Elf’ kicks off holiday season LINCOLNSHIRE – Marriott Theatre gave a jump-start to the yuletide season with its press opening of “Elf,” a fluffy – albeit entertaining – musical comedy based on the popular 2003 movie of the same name. Jeff Award-winner Alex Goodrich was well cast in the lead, a role originally staked out by Will Ferrell in the film. Marc Robin directs and choreographs this ebullient production. Goodrich, tall and gangly, exudes charisma as Buddy, a young orphan who accidentally crawled into Santa’s (Roger Mueller) bag and found himself transported to the North Pole, where he was brought up by happy elves making toys in Santa’s workshop. Now, at the age of 30, Buddy discovers he’s human. Wide-eyed and naive, he embarks, come what may, on a journey to New York City
CRITIC’S CHOICE Tom Witom to reunite with the real father he never knew. Little does he know challenges that await in a city “naughty-listed” for giving up its belief in Santa Claus (or the giving spirit behind Christmas). He arrives wearing his elf outfit – green robe, yellow tights, conical hat and curlicued slippers, and wanders into the North Pole holiday installation at Macy’s department store, where he inspires lackadaisical employees to find joy in their work, unmasks a booze-impaired fake Santa Claus and is smitten by Jovie (Dara Cameron), a comely staff member. Buddy’s initial encounter with his stunned, incredulous

And while his stepmother Emily Hobbs (Susie McMonagle) at first is cautious about this stranger, she warms to him after getting tangible proof that Buddy is telling the truth. Others who demonstrate fine acting/singing/comedic/ dancing skills include Susan Moniz as Deb, an efficient executive assistant to Mr. Hobbs; young Cam Ezell
as the son Michael Hobbs; James Earl Jones II, the malleable Macy’s manager; and Neil Friedman, Hobbs’ outspoken boss. Ryan T. Nelson delivers fine music direction featuring music by Matthew Sklar and lyrics by Chad Beguelin. Audiences will appreciate the Thomas N. Ryan’s appealing set, Jesse Klug’s enchanting lighting and Nancy Missimi’s unfailingly creative costumes. Listen, too, for Robert Gilmartin’s well-done sound design work and the exquisite detail of properties designer Sally Weiss. “Elf” may be lightweight, but its core message about maintaining family ties is heartwarming and on point.

Mod Pizza brings artisan pies to Lake County By ANGELA SYKORA editorial@lakecountyjournal.com Pizzerias are a dime a dozen, and it takes a lot more than cheese and pepperoni to catch the eye of today’s hungry customer. The fast and casual concept of Seattle-based MOD Pizza, which offers a “design-it-yourself� experience has been thriving on the West Coast for six years. The company has expanded to include new locations throughout the Midwest, including Illinois stores in Deerfield, Naperville, Elmhurst and Bloomingdale. Kildeer and Vernon Hills are next. “We’re excited to have this new business and we know people are excited. It’s a new way of eating pizza,� said Michael Talbett, Kildeer’s chief village officer. MOD Pizza’s grand opening is scheduled for Dec. 11 at the Shops at Kildeer, 20505 N. Rand Road. The Vernon Hills store will open in the former Blockbuster Video building at 701 N. Milwaukee Ave. in February, according to MOD Pizza construction manager David Zimmerman. “We hope to get started with construction in the next couple weeks,� he said. The Kildeer and Vernon Hills sites, which will hire 30

Each site will feature outdoor seating available during the warmer months. “We’re really hoping to hit home runs at both sites,� Zimmerman said, adding the Deerfield site “is a rock star.� At MOD Pizza, customization rules. “It’s different from any other pizza place out there. I would call it the Chipotle of pizza,� Zimmerman said. Customers order their pizza at a counter, choosing from standard options or creating a
specialty pie from more than 30 toppings, including five different sauces and six kinds of cheese. The pizzas are available in three sizes – mini, mod and large, and the toppings are unlimited. For example, a mod-sized pizza will cost you $7.87 with as many toppings as wanted. “If you want to go crazy, you can. If it looks good, put it on your pizza,� Zimmerman said. “It’s nice for families, because what kids want the same toppings on their pizza as their mom and dad?� Once the order is placed, the pizza is cooked by hand,

not on a conveyor belt, in a 750-degree, gas-fired brick oven for about three minutes. Customers are called for pickup when their order is ready. “With everyone being so time-starved these days, that’s very important,� Zimmerman said of how quickly the pizza is cooked. The menu also includes salads, Parmesan cheese, cinnamon strips, shakes, and beer and wine. Gluten-free crust is available and their products are all nut-free. “It’s a very simple, straight forward menu and the atmosphere is fun, family-oriented and upbeat,� Zimmerman said. In fact, the rock ’n roll music that pipes through the restaurants, from a 1,000-song playlist, also is streamed on MOD’s website. Delivery is a possibility down the road, Zimmerman said, although none of the locations so far offer the service. According to the company, it was a conscious decision because they believe their pizza is best straight out of the oven. The restaurants do offer pickup and online ordering. In addition to the new Kildeer and Vernon Hills locations, a MOD Pizza is in the works for Glenview. The company also is looking to expand to the southern suburbs. Visit www.modpizza.com for information.

SPRINGFIELD – Smaller Illinois cities and counties are hoping for an exceptionally mild winter or a breakthrough in the state budget impasse. Smaller communities tend to have fewer sources of revenue and often need their share of motor fuel tax money to keep roads clear in the winter, said Brad Cole, executive director of the Illinois Municipal League. “Many municipalities do, in fact, use these funds to pay for salt, plowing and overtime to help keep the roads safe,” Cole said. The local government share of motor fuel taxes is being held up by the ongoing budget impasse in Springfield. Illinois taxes gasoline at 19 cents and diesel fuel at 21.5 cents a gallon. Several specific statewide funds named in the statute get their cut, and the rest of the fuel tax money is divided among road projects and maintenance, with about 46 percent going to the state and 54 percent going to local governments. Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration said without a signed appropriation bill the state has no legal authority to disburse the money.
That’s putting many local officials on edge as November rolls in and the state enters its fifth month without a budget. “The lack of pay-over puts us in an extreme predicament this winter and for the next year as to how we’re going to fund projects and how we’re going to do basic maintenance functions like plowing and patching,” Freeport Mayor Jim Gitz said. Gitz’s community in northwestern Illinois typically gets more than $600,000 a year, and it will feel the pinch this winter without it, he said. Tazewell County Engineer Craig Fink said his county has spent conservatively and, as a result, can probably get through the winter without a major scare. But many small townships may be in trouble, he added. “The more rural the community, the more highly dependent it’s going to be on user fees,” he said. Some of the rural townships probably will head into the winter with zero-balance in accounts they’d normally use to fund salting and plowing, Fink said. Effingham County Board Chairman Jim Niemann said several truck stops generate a

lot of motor fuel tax revenue for his county, and the lack of those and other payments from the state means the county will bottom out its financial reserves by spring if nothing changes. “If we don’t see some funding out of Springfield, either out of the Local Government Distributive Fund or the Motor Fuel Tax Fund, we’ll be hitting our reserves for certain,” Niemann said. While the state has been distributing the income tax portion of the Local Government Distributive Fund by way of continuing appropriation, it has not been sending out the local government share of state sales tax. The comptroller needs a separate appropriation to distribute the local government share of state sales tax, said Rich Carter, spokesman for comptroller Leslie Geissler Munger. To date, the state is holding $38 million in 2016 local-share sales tax revenue. The Illinois Municipal League is asking local governments to pass resolutions and send letters urging the state’s leaders to release money set aside for local governments. Those funds include the motor fuel tax money, as well as local-government portions of the state’s gambling revenue and money to fund 911 dispatch centers, which is collected via telephone surcharges. For its part, the Illinois Department of Transportation does have a nearly topped off supply of road salt for the highways it’s obligated to clear. “We currently have approximately 460,000 tons on hand statewide. That’s just about 100 percent of our available capacity,” IDOT spokesman Guy Tridgell said in an email. Tridgell said IDOT also has contracts in place to obtain an additional 592,000 tons, if needed, and does not anticipate delivery problems. The state anticipates its salt needs based on average use from the previous five years. As Illinois winters can vary tremendously, so does the need for road salt. The state used as little as 235,000 tons in 2011-2012, for instance, but as much as 839,000 tons in 2007-2008, according to IDOT.
Volo Auto Museum to honor Batmobile creator 19 LAKE COUNTY JOURNAL VOLO – Officials of the Volo Auto Museum are expressing their condolences to the family, friends and legions of fans of George Barris, the creator of the Batmobile, who died Nov. 5 at the age of 89. The Grams family, owners of the museum at 27582 Volo Village Road, had longstanding ties with Barris. Not only did Barris create the original Batmobile from the 1960’s “Batman” TV series, he is known for numerous other custom creations, according to a news release.
In Barris’ honor, a wall display is planned of hundreds of never-before-seen photos taken during his annual Firecracker Fourth of July weekend charity custom car shows hosted at the museum between 2000 and 2013. Those who would like to share their Barris memories are encouraged to do so. Museum officials have invited the public to submit their favorite Firecracker show photos to be part of the temporary exhibit, the release stated. Museum founder Greg Grams recalled Nov. 6 how he first met Barris during car
shows and auctions across the country in the 1990s. “I always knew who he was from the time I started in this business 55 years ago,” Greg Grams said. “But I never dreamt of the day I’d be talking to him, let alone him approaching me and saying ‘How about we do a show?” The museum boasts seven Barris cars, including an exhibition model Batmobile, DragU-La, Greased Lightning and more. All are signed by Barris. The Grams family said they will remember Barris not only for his talent, but also for his unassuming nature, never-end-
ing stories and love of mingling with other car enthusiasts. “He didn’t do these shows for the money,” Greg Grams said. “He loved these shows.” To submit a photo, drop it off during business hours – 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily – or mail it to the Volo Auto Museum, 27582 Volo Village Road, Volo, IL, 60073, attention “Firecracker.” Submissions may be rotated depending on the number of photos received. Photos should be duplicates, as they will not be returned, officials said. Visit www.volocars.com or call 815-385-3644 for more information.

• LEADERSHIP
Continued from page 3 Even with the allegations against him, Gliniewicz routinely received expanded responsibilities at the police department. He died with the rank of lieutenant. “How does a guy like this get promoted?” said Dave Bayless, village of Fox Lake spokesman. “It’s a failure in leadership.” A leadership that is no longer in Fox Lake, he added. Michael Levine is a law enforcement consultant and retired Drug Enforcement Administration agent who has reviewed the hiring practices in federal law enforcement agencies as well as local police departments. Levine said rogue cops are all too common. So is promoting them. “All he had to have is one friend, and he’s promoted,” Levine said. “Just cozy up to one boss, and he’s promoted. This is common in all departments. The cream does not always rise to the administrative surface.” Hired in 1985, Gliniewicz eventually was promoted to sergeant in May 1999. A recommendation for his promotion was signed by Margaret Paull, who was then the secretary for

Lake County Sheriff’s Detective Chris Covelli finishes briefing the media Sept. 21 at the Fox Lake Police Department. Gunshot residue and ballistic tests done during the investigation into Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz’s shooting showed Gliniewicz took his own life. the village’s Fire and Police Commission. She currently is a commissioner. Paull did not return phone calls, and two other commissioners – Michael Trinski and Joe Ravagni – also could not be reached. According to recent commission meeting minutes, they indicated they would not speak to the media. Paull, at the time, wrote Gliniewicz’s advancement was based on written scores, an oral interview, his years of service and performance evaluations by then-police Chief Edward Gerretsen. Generally speaking, police
review boards are run fairly similarly, Levine said. A group of residents is appointed to conduct the hiring, firing and promoting of officers. They’re often tasked with investigating resident complaints. “You have a bunch of citizens who have absolutely no experience in police work,” Levine said. “Especially in a little town. … That’s how a guy like that can surface.” Early on, Gliniewicz showed signs of trouble. A 1988 report indicated officers found him passed out behind the wheel of his truck. The engine was run-

ning at full throttle with his foot on the gas. In that incident, officers towed his truck and drove him home. Gliniewicz reported the truck stolen the next day, the report said. Other incidents of him being late for work, calling in while drunk, or missing important meetings surfaced in the beginning of his career – offenses that would get most officers fired in other departments, city officials admitted. Gliniewicz was promoted to lieutenant despite a sexual harassment lawsuit in which a former police officer said she gave Gliniewicz oral sex in exchange for job protection. The lawsuit, filed in 2001, eventually was dropped, but Gliniewicz was suspended for 30 days and ordered to attend sex addiction counseling. Meanwhile, he advanced through the ranks. Gliniewicz was made lieutenant in charge of patrol in 2006, a position appointed by the police chief. Gliniewicz once led the department’s communications center. It’s there that a dispatcher complained Gliniewicz told her he would put “bullets in her chest.” She later reported he brought in a gun to the dispatch center and “cocked it,” which she believed was a move to intimidate her. Later in 2009, anonymous members of the police department wrote to then-Mayor Cindy Irwin describing a tense atmosphere created by Gliniewicz. Among their grievances, they accused him of grabbing several women’s breasts at a Christmas party, getting a tattoo while on duty and paying for it by using a gift certificate donated to the department, heavy drinking, intimidating others and misusing police equipment. The letter claims former police Chief Michael Behan took a “head-in-the-sand approach” to dealing with Gliniewicz. It’s unclear what, if any, discipline Gliniewicz received as a result. Every Fox Lake official who
returned phone calls for this article said questions about Gliniewicz’s advancement in the department should be referred to Behan, or other city officials at the time, who could not be reached for comment. Currently, the Fox Lake Police Department is run by an interim chief and deputy chief on loan from the Lake County Sheriff’s Office. A nationwide search for a new police chief began in August with Behan’s retirement. When he retired, Behan had been placed on paid administrative leave because of a separate investigation into how he handled an unrelated investigation into his and another officer’s actions in December. In the meantime, village officials said they want to move past the Gliniewicz saga, and they are undergoing a complete overhaul of the department. Village Administrator Anne Marrin, whom Gliniewicz targeted when he tried to order a hit or set her up for an arrest, talked about the “lax” policies and procedures at the department when she began looking at their operations in 2014. She said there weren’t proper channels for discipline or for reporting superiors. “I just think they didn’t really know the right way because it’s been embedded in them that this is how it’s done,” she said. Mayor Donny Schmitt also noted some changes need to be made within the department. “We’re doing a complete audit and independent investigation of the department, and policies and practices, and we’re finding out there needs to be change,” Schmitt said, but he would not elaborate on specific changes. Moving forward, he noted the need to regain the public’s trust. “One bad police officer doesn’t make the entire department,” Schmitt said. “There’s good men and women working at the department putting their lives on the line every day for the community.”

FOOTBALL PLAYOFFS
By TIM SIECK editorial@lakecountyjournal.com Lake County started the football playoffs with six qualifying teams. That number shrunk to three after the first round during Halloween weekend. This past weekend, Warren, Grayslake North and Libertyville all had their sights set on advancing to the state quarterfinals, but only Libertyville was able to hold on. Here’s a look at the three second-round playoff games.
Libertyville 27, Lincoln-Way East 17
Libertyville is a team on a mission. With several key players returning from last season’s team that finished one win short of a trip to the state championship, the goal is simple: make it to DeKalb for the Class 7A championship on Thanksgiving weekend. The Wildcats weren’t tested most of the regular season but did find themselves in a close game Nov. 7. Libertyville’s senior leadership came through when the Wildcats needed it most, and they went on to defeat Lincoln-Way East. Riley Lees, who has led the Wildcats all season with his arm and legs, finished the win against Lincoln-Way East with 268 yards passing and three touchdowns and 120 yards rushing and one touchdown. Tim Calamari was the star receiver with 191 yards receiving and two touchdowns. The Wildcats, the No. 3 seed in 7A, will face No. 6 Normal Community on Nov. 14.
Naperville Central 49, Warren 28
After a wild first-round victory, Warren looked to keep the momentum going Nov. 6 against sixth-seeded Naperville Central. No. 22 Warren gave a strong effort but fell short in its bid at a second straight upset. The Redhawks jumped out to a big lead, scoring 42 of their points before halftime, and Warren wasn’t able to come back from the huge deficit. Senior running back Darri-

Fellow senior Jalen Powe had a 94-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and a rushing touchdown in the second half. Naperville Central will face Waubonsie Valley in the 8A quarterfinals Nov. 14. Warren ended its season with a 6-5 record.
Riverside-Brookfield 21, Grayslake North 14
A roller-coaster season for Grayslake North came to an emotional end Nov. 7 in a loss to Riverside-Brookfield. The Knights began the season with excitement knowing Merrick Gentile would return at quarterback to help lessen the load of losing running back Titus Booker. But in a scrimmage before the season, Gentile was lost to a serious knee injury and nobody knew what to expect from the Knights. Grayslake North rebounded and won six games to qualify for the playoffs. Grayslake North then won

Class 2A state finals
Carmel entered last weekend’s state finals hoping to mirror what the school’s girls team was able to do in the spring, take home a state title. The Corsairs, making their first appearance in the state finals, came up a little short and ended up bringing home the third-place trophy. In the Nov. 6 semifinal, the Corsairs fell to Waterloo 3-1. Carmel had trouble containing Ben Huels, who scored all three of Waterloo’s goals. The Corsairs got their goal from Austin Ehren on an assist from Braco Lasso. On Nov. 7, Carmel’s fortunes were much better in a 4-2 win against Washington for the third-place trophy. The Corsairs were able to spread the glory around in the game with Lasso, Ryan McKernan, Michael Alemu and Austin Ehren each scoring a goal. Carmel finished the season with a 19-8-1 record.
GIRLS VOLLEYBALL
Libertyville was the last team standing in Lake County but fell Nov. 5 to Stevenson in the Libertyville sectional finals.

You DO NOT Have to Suffer From Knee Pain Any Longer!
KNEE PAIN?
NEW FDA APPROVED TREATMENT PROVEN TO RELIEVE KNEE PAIN
Over 100 million Americans suffer from knee and joint pain? This pain accounts for 25 percent of all visits to primary care physicians and half of all anti-inflammatory drug prescriptions.Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you could get rid of your knee pain? Where would you go, what would you do? What would you give for a day, a week or a lifetime of pain-free mobility? We are pleased to announce that knee pain sufferers don’t have to wait any longer to get the most advanced, non-surgical, FDA approved treatment. If you suffer from any degree of knee pain, we invite you to regain control of your life by visiting Superior Health & Wellness, a state-of-the-art medical facility.
WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)?
Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows the bones under the cartilage to rub together, resulting in pain, swelling and loss of motion of the joint. Although in some people it progresses quickly, in most individuals joint damage develops gradually over years.
WHAT ELSE IS AVAILABLE TO TREAT KNEE PAIN?
After careful study and several trials, the FDA approved a new treatment aimed at helping those with knee pain. This new treatment is a high-tech answer for all those who think that surgery, dietary supplements and prescription medications are the only option to eliminate knee pain.
HOW DOES THIS TREATMENT WORK?
We use diagnostic ultrasound, allowing the doctor to pinpoint problem areas with extreme accuracy. A viscosupplement is then injected, and the healing process begins. Viscosupplementation bonds with naturally occurring joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. It reduces pain, inflammation and swelling of the joint. Patients compare the treatment to getting a shot at the doctor’s office, and report little pain or discomfort.
WHAT IS INJECTED INTO THE KNEE?
Hyaluronic acid is similar to substances that occur naturally in your joint. The outside of the joint (joint capsule) is comprimised of a sturdy, fibrous tissue. The lining of the joint capsule contains synovial cells, which secrete a thick, viscous synovial fluid. Hyaluronic acid contributes to the viscous nature of the joint fluid, nourishes the cartilage, helps eliminate waste products, lubricates the joint and acts as a shock absorber inside the joint.Hyaluronic acid is reduced or lost from those who suffer from osteoarthritis. It is similar to changing the oil in your car. If your car were to run low on oil, you would have some serious wear and tear on the moving parts.
