Hike Lake County challenge is underway

READY• SET• WALK•

The Lake County Forest Preserves has a challenge – or seven of them – for you. Grab your walking shoes and head to the trails to participate in the Hike Lake County program while enjoying fall breezes and autumn colors.

Medical research shows that being outdoors in nature has many wellness benefits. Hike Lake County provides a way to get a dose of wellness while walking in a beautiful preserve.

Complete seven of 12 designated walks by November 30 and you’ll earn a free commemorative shield for your walking stick or a zipper pull. Each year features new trails and a colorful new shield or zipper pull, (while supplies last). Bicycling or horseback riding do not count toward the program. At each preserve, look for Hike Lake County logo signs at the trail head to get you started on the right route.

To get started, you’ll need an official travel log to record your routes. Every walker needs their own. Let your canine companion join in the fun and complete the hikes with you. Record their name on your travel log and your dog will receive a free commemorative dog tag (up to three dogs). You can purchase an optional Hike Lake County dog collar to hang it on.

To receive your free dog tag, zipper pull or commemorative shield for your walking stick, submit your Travel Log online, bring it to the

Hike Lake County Center, or mail it with a self-addressed stamped envelope to Lake County Forest Preserves, 1899 West Winchester Road, Libertyville, IL 60048 by January 31, 2021. Stop by the General Offices in Libertyville to pick up your free commemorative materials.

Weekdays, 8 am–4:30 pm.

Lake County shows warning signs of increased COVID-19 risk HI-LITER • WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 9, 2020 • 2

Residents asked to remain vigilant to slow spread of the virus

The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) risk level in Lake County has changed from blue to orange on the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) County Level Risk Metrics Map. An orange designation indicates warning signs of increased COVID-19 risk in the community.

Eight different indicators are used to determine a county’s designation. A county is considered at the orange ‘Warning’ level when at least two of the main indicators are going in the wrong direction.

Individuals, families, and community groups should use this information to help inform their choices about personal and family gatherings, as well as what activities they choose to do. To view the IDPH county-level risk map, visit the County Level COVID-19 Risk Metrics webpage.

An increase in case rates and deaths from August 23– 29 have led to the change to an orange ‘Warning’ designation for Lake County: New cases per 100,000 people (Incidence Rate) • There were 95 new COVID-19 cases per 100,000 people reported last week in Lake County, an increase from 82 new cases per 100,000 people the previous week.

• Cases among people ages

19–25 have driven the increase in recent weeks, including cases at Naval Station Great Lakes.

• The target established by the state is less than 50 cases per 100,000 people.

• Lake County incidence rates have exceeded the state’s target since mid-July.

Number of deaths • There were 10 deaths in Lake County last week, up from 5 deaths the week before.

• The target established by the state is for deaths to decrease or remain stable.

• The number of deaths in Lake County decreased steadily from mid-June to mid-July. The number remained relatively stable, averaging less than 5 deaths per week, for 7 weeks before last week’s increase.

“These signs of increasing COVID-19 risk in Lake County should be a wakeup call heading into Labor Day weekend,” said Mark Pfister, Executive Director of the Lake County Health Department. “We need everyone to wear a mask, wash their hands often, and watch their distance. Reconsider your plans if they include risky activities and gatherings. If we follow these basic precautions consistently, we can slow the spread of COVID-19.”

Besides cases reported at Naval Station Great Lakes, the Health Department is currently investigating 24 COVID-19 outbreaks reported in a variety of settings since August 17. An outbreak is defined as at least one confirmed case plus a suspected case within a congregate living facility, or two or more linked cases in another setting.

The Health Department continues to work with businesses and many other facets of the community to prevent and control the spread of COVID-19. These efforts include increasing the accessibility of local COVID-19 testing, building the Lake County contact tracing workforce, coordinating with law enforcement officials to address executive order violations at businesses, and assisting schools and childcare providers with public health education and guidance.

On August 28, 2020, the Health Department launched a School Decision Dashboard with data to inform school superintendents’ decisions to pursue in-person, hybrid, or in-person learning.

“Recent investigations by our Communicable Disease team show increases in cases linked to private gatherings,” said Dr. Sana Ahmed, Medical Epidemiologist at the Health Department. “Re-

member, don’t let your guard down just because you are around people you trust— your friends, co-workers, and even family members. Take precautions every single time you are with others who don’t live in your household.”

Additional Information: The Lake County Health Department reported Lake County’s first COVID-19 case on March 11, 2020. As

of September 3, 2020, 14,772 Lake County residents have tested positive for the disease, including 450 deaths.

For more details, please visit the Coronavirus Data Hub, which is updated daily Mondays through Fridays at https://www.lakecountyil. gov/COVID19data. Due to the Labor Day holiday, the numbers will not be updated on Monday, September 7.

Updates will resume on Tues-

day, September 8.

General questions can be sent via email to covid19@ lakecountyil.gov.

Update: COVID-19 mitigation at the jail proving successful The Lake County Sheriff’s Office and Lake County Health Department are reporting that results from COVID-19 testing at the Lake County Jail have been received. Approximately 600 inmates, correctional employees, facilities staff, and contractors who enter the jail facility were tested last week for COVID-19. Results in-

dicate that one inmate, one correctional officer, and one contractual employee tested positive. All three were asymptomatic. The inmate was placed in medical isolation and the correctional officer and contractual employee are isolating at home.

The inmate who was positive was newly remanded inmate who was being held

in the jail’s previously established 14-day quarantine pod, used for newly remanded inmates.

Follow-up testing at the jail will occur next week for all staff, and for 28 inmates who had close contact with the inmate who tested positive. These inmates will also be required to quarantine for another 14 days to prevent

the virus from spreading in the jail.

Sheriff John Idleburg said, “As I have said many times, it is an absolute priority of mine to keep our employees and jail inmates safe. We implemented a very robust mitigation program at the onset of COVID-19, and the hard work continues to pay off. We continue doing

everything we can to keep COVID-19 out of our jail.”

“Identifying only three cases among 600 people tested demonstrates the effectiveness of our collaborative effort with the Sheriff’s Office and the mitigation measures that they put in place this spring,” said Mark Pfister, Executive Director at the Health Department. “Our

next step is increasing education efforts for staff and contractors at the jail to reinforce the message that even interactions with your most trusted friends, co-workers and family members can lead to COVID-19 infection, and that can have serious ramifications when providing services in a congregate facility.”

in the negotiations of these bills. They witnessed firsthand that House Democrats challenged representatives of ComEd and Exelon on critical portions of their proposed bills. Rep. Durkin knows it, and all those actually involved in the process know it.”

He called Durkin’s petition a “political stunt only months away from one of the most consequential elections of our lifetimes” and questioned the Republican leader’s own legislative dealings.

“The law does not prohibit members of the General Assembly from making job recommendations. If Rep. Durkin wants to question whether legislators should be allowed to make job recommendations, I encourage him to be transparent and disclose all of the jobs he has requested or lobbyists he has recommended over the years. He should also disclose the various actions he personally took to pass the energy bills, both in 2011 and 2016,” Madigan said.

Madigan also claimed he “can’t identify one thing” Durkin and state Republicans have done to help Illinois residents amid a weakened economy and global pandemic. He said Republicans would rather focus on him than “a federal administration that has used the White House to prop up Donald Trump’s wealthy campaign donors and friends at the expense of the American people.”

At an unrelated news conference in Chicago on Sept.

2, Gov. JB Pritzker said he is hopeful it is an attempt to get “real answers” from the speaker rather than a “political stunt” as characterized

by Madigan.

“As I have said all along, there are questions that need to be answered by the speaker, and perhaps the creation of this legislative committee will actually get some of those answers,” he said.

Community briefs

pointees include Deputy Minority Leader Tom Demmer, R-Dixon, and Reps. Deanne Mazzochi, R-Elmhurst, and Grant Wehrli, R-Naperville.

Per House rules, the committee has the authority to subpoena and administer oaths at the discretion of the chair, but Welch said it is “too early” to tell what authority will be used.

“Like in the past, I’m sure we will approve rules of procedure,” he said. “So that’s why I believe right now it’s premature to say exactly what we’re going to do.”

Welch said the process will be transparent and hearings will be public. The body will also be required to file a report on alleged charges with the House clerk. If the panel approves charges, the matter would move to a 12-person discipline panel appointed through similar processes.

In response to Durkin’s petition, Madigan issued a statement that was at times defensive, accusatory and a direct political attack on the Republican Party under President Donald Trump. It was distributed by his official state communications department.

He said bills favorable to Commonwealth Edison— which include measures providing hundreds of millions of dollars in subsidies to a pair of nuclear power plants and making rate increases easier for utility companies—passed with broad bipartisan support and backing from environmentalists and other stakeholders.

He denied the assertion that the bills passed in exchange for “hiring and retention of a few individuals.”

“The bills could not have passed without such broad support, and they were the product of years of deliberation, negotiations, and consensus building,” Madigan said in the statement. “Rep. Durkin knows this because Republican members and staff were directly involved

COUPON

A special House committee will look into House Speaker Michael Madigan’s ties to Commonwealth Edison and determine whether discipline is needed after House Republican leadership filed a petition to initiate the process.

The committee was formed Sept. 2 pursuant to Illinois House rules after House Republican Leader Jim Durkin, of Western Springs, filed the nine-page petition Monday.

The committee, consisting of three Democrats and three Republicans appointed by each party’s leadership, will investigate Madigan’s identification as Public Official A in a deferred prosecution agreement filed by federal authorities against ComEd. In that court agreement, ComEd admitted to—from 2011 until 2019—seeking to “influence and reward Public Official A” in return for favorable action on legislation.

“In addition to the deferred prosecution agreement, the office of Speaker of the House received a subpoena from the U.S Attorney’s office seeking records on twelve separate matters (including ComEd). With at least 12 separate matters being examined by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, it indicates a pattern of concerning behavior in the Office of the Speaker, which is run by Speaker Madigan,” Durkin wrote in the petition signed by fellow Republican Reps.

Ryan Spain, of Peoria, and Andrew Chesney, of Freeport.

Madigan said in a news release Sept. 2 that he immediately recused himself from action on the petition, putting Rep. Gregory Harris, a Chicago Democrat and House Majority Leader, in charge of the process and which members will serve on the committee. Harris

said in a news release he appointed Rep. Emanuel “Chris” Welch, a Hillside Democrat, to chair the six-person committee.

“The Illinois Constitution gives members of the House the authority to review the actions of its members and determine whether discipline is necessary, including overturning the results of an election or expelling a member,” Harris said in a news release. “This is a power that should be judiciously exercised, and one that has rarely been used. In the past two decades, it has been invoked on two occasions, following the arrest and indictment of former Representatives Derrick Smith and Luis Arroyo.”

Durkin said the U.S. attorney’s office was informed of the petition and it is not his intention to “interfere in any way” with the ongoing investigation.

“Given the facts admitted

by ComEd for its nine-yearlong scheme to bribe Speaker Madigan, the Illinois House of Representatives must do its job and conduct a thorough investigation,” Durkin said in a news release.

The committee has the task of determining “if reasonable grounds exist” to authorize charges against Madigan that may result in disciplinary action. Such action would require a majority vote from the committee that includes an equal number of Democrats and Republicans.

“I do believe that Speaker Madigan, like any other member of the House, is entitled to due process,” Welch said in a phone call Sept.

2. “Fairness is extremely important to me, and that’s what he’s going to get here.”

Welch gave no timeline for the next action of the committee, which includes his fellow Democratic Reps.

Outstanding sociology instructor honored with regional award

The Association of Community College Trustees (ACCT) selected College of Lake County (CLC) sociology instructor John Tenuto as the recipient of the 2020 Central Regional Faculty Member Award. ACCT’s regional awards recognize the tremendous contributions made by community colleges and their leaders to meet the needs of their communities.

About to start his 23rd year teaching sociology this fall, Tenuto is a passionate and authentic educator who believes his students learn best when they personally connect with the lesson and apply it to their own lives. He reads each classroom differently, using familiar popular culture references to drive class discussions and debates. It makes complex concepts familiar and John Tenuto friendly.

“Learning is supposed to be fun,” Tenuto said.

“Somewhere along the way, that fun is sometimes lost as education progresses. My classes are designed to be a little bit of entertainment and little bit of information.”

And since he’s been nominated for teacher of the year repeatedly, his students obviously agree – learning is fun in his classes.

“Tenuto is an A-1 Professor,” said student Le’Andres Callahan. The concepts he explains in class are easy to follow and he makes sure each student understands. He works with each student individually and he helped me understand the full, true meaning of sociology. I love taking any classes he teaches.”

Tenuto is dedicated to removing barriers for students.

“I make textbooks free, ensure workload is reasonable and realize every student has a different reason to take my classes,” he said. “The key is knowing who your students are and recognizing their goals.”

Tenuto also takes seriously his ability to hide any religious, political or social ideologies so he doesn’t isolate students. He believes students feel uncomfortable when teachers show their preferences and says he never wants to put something outside his office door that makes a student not want to come and talk to him.

Very thankful for his award and the opportunity to elevate CLC faculty recognition, Tenuto is conscious that students attend his classes to learn about sociology, not about him. He feels as grateful for the nomination as earning the award because it indicates his teaching resonated enough to make a difference in at least one student’s life this year.

“There’s no doubt there are better teachers than I at CLC,” he says humbly. “I got lucky this year.”

“Community colleges and their leaders have been vital to our country’s educational infrastructure and our workforce for over a century,” said ACCT Chair and Minnesota State Colleges and Universities Trustee Dawn Erlandson. “This year, perhaps more than ever before, community college leaders have proved themselves to be essential community service providers and educators in the face of unprecedented challenges and adversity.”

Officials urge residents to fill out census as deadline approaches Illinois stands to lose millions in federal funding and up to two U.S. House seats if undercounted

By Raymon Troncoso CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS

Gov. JB Pritzker spoke in Berwyn Sept. 3 to promote the 2020 U.S. Census as the Sept. 30 deadline for states to get their residents counted approaches.

He was joined by Lt. Gov. Julianna Stratton and U.S. Rep Jesús “Chuy” García, among others.

Pritzker and Stratton both emphasized the importance of an accurate census count, as response rate and population estimates are tied to federal funding and the apportionment of seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. A low response rate can also put millions of dollars in federal funding at risk across Illinois.

“The higher the count, the more of your federal tax dollars come back to Illinois instead of going to other states,” Pritzker said. “Just a 1 percent undercount, could result in the state losing over $195 million in federal funds at a time when we frankly need the full funding we can get from Washington (D.C.) the most.”

That amounts to approximately $15,000-$20,000 lost in federal funding per person

undercounted in the census, according to García.

“We come together to remind our neighbors and families that everyone counts, regardless of citizenship and age,” García said. “In 10 minutes, you secure $20,000 over the next 10 years for our communities, for your families.”

According to Pritzker, Illinois is one of 10 states that pays more in federal taxes than it receives in federal funding. A high response rate to the 2020 census can change that.

As the novel coronavirus pandemic wreaks havoc on the U.S. economy and tax revenue across the country and in Illinois, Pritzker stressed the importance of the census as it pertains to aid. Apportionment of federal funding from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security, or CARES, Act is partially based on 2010 census counts.

Stratton also emphasized the need for Latino Illinoisans to participate in the census and addressed fears of retaliation.

“Our census doesn’t hurt, it helps. The census questionnaire will not ask your

citizenship status,” she said.

“Your personal information will not be used against you in court or by any government agency like ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement). For far too long some members of our Latino community have been told to keep their doors closed and not be seen, but no more. You have the power, and you deserve to be seen and counted,” she said.

The Trump administration attempted to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census, but those efforts were blocked by multiple federal courts last year. It does not appear on the final form, and any respondent information is kept confidential by law.

As of Sept. 2, Illinois was seventh in terms of self-response, with a 69.8 percent rate. Illinois ranks 12th in total “enumeration,” or the percentage of households in the state that have been counted in the census, at 89.8 percent.

Among states with a population over 10 million, Illinois ranks first in both categories.

In 2010, which only allowed self-response via mail, Illinois had a 70.5 percent re-

sponse rate. The 2020 census allows for residents to self-file a form online, through mail or by phone.

The state is on track to meet its 2010 response rate, but structural obstacles to filling out the census have kept response rates low in some parts of the state, including some rural counties and several census tracts on the south and west sides of Chicago among others.

Lack of access to broadband internet, the prevalence of PO boxes which the Census Bureau does not send forms to, and the difficulty census door-knockers have reaching rural residents all factor into some county’s having response rates as low as 33.4 percent.

The state has to increase its response rates after the Trump administration shortened the deadline for reporting from the end of October to the end of September.

A federal lawsuit to restore the original deadline is ongoing.

Illinoisans can fill out the census by mail, online at 2020census.gov, or by calling 844-330-2020.

Pet of the week

Chalupa, 8 years old, and Quesadilla, 13 years old, are both spayed, up-to-date on shots (including rabies), tested negative for heartworm and on preventative and microchipped.

They are BFF’s and do everything together. If you see one of them the other is never far away.

Since they are BFF’s, they need to get adopted together. The best part is you get two super fun and loving little dogs for one adoption fee.

Save-A-Pet is now open every day, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. except on Tuesday when they are closed.

Please check www.saveapetil.org/adopt for information related to COVID-19 restrictions such as mandatory mask and limited guests in the building.

Drivers in newer Audi vehicles will soon know when red lights turn to green at many traffic signals throughout Lake County. This feature, known as ‘Time-to-Green,’ will be available in newer Audi vehicles at more than 100 intersections in Lake County beginning this fall.

All models in Audi’s lineup since 2019, and starting with select models in 2017, were equipped with the Audi connect® PRIME Traffic Light Information feature, a cloud-connected vehicle service providing data and information near signalized intersections that is displayed on the instrument

panel or heads-up display. It also alerts drivers of reduced speeds they need to drive to arrive on a green light and what their anticipated time at the next light would be.

The Lake County Division of Transportation has been working with Traffic Technology Services (TTS), Inc. to launch a new program featuring cloud-based technology that allows vehicles to receive information from Lake County’s traffic signal network. Through this program, Lake County receives anonymous information from TTS and Audi about motorist’s experiences, such as how long a vehicle waits at a

red light, that it can use to improve traffic signal operations.

“Lake County’s long-term investment in our Lake County PASSAGE system has positioned us to be on the leading-edge of transportation technology,” said Shane Schneider, LCDOT Director. “This new program, which is at no-cost to Lake County, is the first step towards a future where we share real-time traffic signal and network information directly to vehicles.”

At this time, only newer Audi vehicles are equipped to take advantage of Lake County’s traffic signal network. But it’s anticipated that more man-

ufacturers will equip vehicles with technology that can connect to traffic signals in the coming years. For example, Volkswagen is starting to roll out this feature to some of its brands according to TTS. “Studies have shown that people are more patient at traffic lights if they know how long they will be idle at the signal for,” said Justin Effinger, Principal Engineer. “Our goal is to ultimately expand this new program, apply for grants, and partner with companies and groups so we can use the latest technology to improve traffic signal timings and safety on Lake County roads.”

Illinois among last states to apply, be approved for added $300 unemployment benefit Pritzker cites ‘serious concerns about unfairness’ of federal weekly payment supplement

By Rebecca Anzel CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS

Illinois is one of the last states to apply and be approved for a federal program providing an additional $300 in unemployment assistance per week to qualifying residents.

Gov. JB Pritzker announced that he instructed the Illinois Department of Employment Security to submit an application “despite serious concerns about the unfairness” of the program.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency certified that request on Sept. 1.

Funding for the Lost Wage Assistance Program was redirected by President Donald Trump from the agency’s disaster relief fund. That money is typically used to finance the federal government’s response to major domestic di-

sasters, such as assisting hurricane survivors.

Trump issued the order in July shortly after a measure creating $600 in added weekly benefits through the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security, Or CARES, Act expired.

Up to $44 billion is available to states through Dec. 27, or until the funding runs out.

Benefits can be retroactively paid to eligible Illinoisans, starting with the week ending Aug. 1.

The governor’s office, in a news release, estimated that funding will be exhausted in three weeks. It cited unspecified “economic projections for the demand of these funds.”

Only those Americans who are eligible for at least $100 per week in unemployment benefits qualify for the extra $300 in federal funding. That

is why Pritzker said Illinois did not apply for the program sooner—about 55,000 residents will be excluded, according to his office.

As of Sept. 2, 45 states are approved to receive grants, including Illinois, which was the 44th state approved. Applications were accepted beginning Aug. 15 and the federal government has begun paying out benefits.

“President Trump’s program will likely cut off the most vulnerable workers, create needless competition among the states for these limited FEMA dollars, and sow more confusion among the unemployed, so I want to caution that those eligible for these dollars will likely encounter frustration and unfairness brought on by the president’s short-sighted and short lived program,” Pritzker said

LCSPTF hosting 8th annual Walk for Suicide Prevention and Awareness The Lake County Suicide Prevention Task Force (LCSPTF) will host the 8th Annual Walk for Suicide Prevention and Awareness on Saturday, Sept. 19. This year’s event will be a virtual walk for registrants to participate where they feel comfortable walking, with a Facebook Live event starting at 10 a.m.

This year the committee wants everyone in the community to know that “We are all in this together”. Please join us in support of suicide prevention and help us bring awareness and support to the community.

Wear your event shirt and share your photos and videos with

them.

All registrations before August 22, 2020 were guaranteed a t-shirt and resource fair bag. The bag will include information and giveaways from local community organizations from throughout Lake County. There will be a limited number of t-shirts and sizes for registrations after that date, and we will do our best to accommodate all. There will be a t-shirt event on Saturday, Sept.

12, at College of Lake County for registrants to pick up their t-shirts and bags.

Originally formed in Waukegan to support families affected by a series of police suicides,

the LCSPTF has grown as a non-profit organization that works to prevent suicide and promote mental health awareness in Lake County through outreach events, professional training and community education because one suicide is too many.

All proceeds go to the Lake County Suicide Prevention Task Force and support their mission. To register or donate go to Eventbrite.com and search 8th Annual Walk for Awareness and Suicide Prevention. Registration is $20 for adults and $10 for children.

Questions can be sent to Prevention.LCSPTF@gmail.com.

in a written statement.

“However, the $300 benefit will provide much needed assistance for those who can get it, too many of whom are facing terrible choices about whether to pay their rent, buy groceries or get medicine,” he continued. “We will do everything in our power to make sure that every eligible recipient can participate in this program.”

Other states developed a work-around to tackle the issue of residents not otherwise qualifying for the extra federal financial assistance. New Hampshire, for example, is supplementing its residents’ unemployment benefits to ensure everyone reaches the $100 threshold.

According to the New Hampshire Employment Security Department, “for those people eligible for less than

$100 in weekly unemployment benefits, New Hampshire is making additional changes to increase the minimum state unemployment benefit up to $100 so that all unemployed Granite Staters will be eligible.”

In Rhode Island, Scott Jensen, the state’s Department of Labor and Training director, said officials will briefly increase residents’ benefits so they qualify for the Lost Wage Assistance program.

Spokespeople for Pritzker and the Department of Employment Security did not respond to questions about whether a similar strategy was considered in Illinois.

IDES is tasked with distributing whatever federal funds Illinois is allocated and identifying which residents qualify for that assistance.

According to the U.S. De-

partment of Labor, 24,116 Illinoisans filed new unemployment claims for the week ending Aug. 29. That is down 2,146 new claims filed the week prior.

The number of those residents receiving continuing unemployment benefits also decreased by more than 35,000, from 593,305 the week ending Aug. 15 to 555,582 the week after.

The number of Illinoisans who filed Pandemic Unemployment Assistance claims slightly increased from 4,169 the week ending Aug. 22 to 4,433the week ending Aug. 29. The PUA program was designed for those who are self-employed and independent contractors who typically do not qualify for unemployment benefits.

Slices of life

Let’s come together I’ve never paid much attention to politics – until recently.

When I was first eligible to vote at age 18 and even 19, I was too busy having fun. My teenage brain didn’t perceive politics as fun. So I didn’t vote. (Embarrassed to admit that now but I try to be truthful about what I write.)

In my twenties, I was busy getting married and having babies. Politics were on the back burner. I didn’t have the time. Sleep and a quick threeminute shower were more of a priority.

The story was much the same in my thirties.

Chasing kids, taxiing them to activities and volunteering at sporting events all took precedence. Besides, our country was doing well, as it always had during my lifetime. I had no reason to suspect anything different.

I voted, but didn’t do much research or give it a whole lot of thought.

We were America, after all. It almost felt like we were invincible.

I took voting for granted.

I took our nation for granted.

I took our freedoms for granted. Looking back, I feel the tug of regret.

Now it is 2020 and I don’t take anything for granted.

There are no easy answers because no one side is “right” and no one side is “wrong.”

and carrying a purse, was recorded walking through the yard and peering into a window.

An investigation was initiated by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigation Division which revealed that Khollman, who is currently on parole with the Illinois Department of Corrections, was the man looking into home. Khollman was subsequently arrested and was issued a Notice to Appear for Disorderly Conduct.

Bond posted and notice to appear issued for next court date: September 17, 2020 at 1:30 p.m.
