A press release from the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office:

Louis A. Bianchi, McHenry County State’s Attorney, announces that Thomas Reed, 53, of McHenry, was sentenced to 25 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections for the offenses of predatory criminal sexual assault of a child and aggravated criminal sexual abuse.
Judge Gordon Graham sentenced the defendant to 21 years for the offense of predatory criminal sexual assault of a child and a consecutive four year sentence on the offense of aggravated criminal sexual abuse.
This case was investigated by the McHenry Police Department.
The defendant was found guilty by a jury on June 25, 2014.

The defendant will be required to serve 85% of the sentencing term on the offense of predatory criminal sexual assault of a child pursuant to truth in sentencing provisions.

This is the same charge that former Sheriff’s Sergeant Greg Pyle faces, but he faces ten such charges, consecutively, according to the McHenry County State’s Attorney’s Office.
I think Judge Gordon Graham went easy on him.
There should be no opportunity for parole and he should never be allowed out on the streets.
People who hurt and abuse children should be locked away forever. IMO.
SICK.
