From State Rep Allen Skillicorn:
Franks needs to resign
“Reform minded individuals have to take pause after hearing about the raid of Speaker Michael Madigan’s office concerning the alleged sexual misconduct and stalking from McHenry County Board Chairman Jack Franks.
“Illinois has seen #MeToo scandal after scandal in the past year.
“This particular case dates back to November 19th, 2018 when the Speakers office first became aware of the allegation.
“More details will be exposed but the Illinois State Police does not raid the Speaker of the House’s office without significant probable cause.
“Considering the pattern of abusive behavior, corruption cases that have tainted his caucus for decades, and now these allegations it is perfectly clear that Illinois and McHenry County need the immediate resignation of both Speaker Michael Madigan and McHenry County Board Chairman Jack Franks.
“To move forward and do the business of serving the people of Illinois we need this distraction removed.
“There is a culture of corruption in Illinois government and every incident has Speaker Madigan’s finger prints on it.
“This corruption weighs on our schools, job climate, and the taxes we pay.
“This ‘corruption tax’ is a burden we can no longer afford to pay!”
Hopefully the States Attorney’s Office under Pat Kenneally isn’t involved in this as he’d botch this up as he does everything thing else involving McHenry County politicians.
McHenry County would be better served with Pat Buttram.
Alleged crimes took place in Springfield, it seems.
He still needs to step aside until he is either indicted or cleared.
He cannot have day to day command of the county with this pall over his head.
Innocent until proven guilty but if a cop were in a similar situation, they would be suspended with pay while the investigation is underway.
In that Franks has the appearance of having a Habsburg Jaw.
Previously my only hope for the Franks downfall, was a progressive deteriorating of the family’s genetic line, until the final male heir is incapable of producing male children.
Don’t get caught supporting Trump around Kenneally or he’ll send his goons in suits to lie about your credible eyewitnesses and try to put you in prison.

NO, No, No, no Kenneally investigation.
50 pages of excuses for Bob Miller.
25,800 pages of excuses for Jack.
Take his fat pension away!
all of the pensions
Innocent until proven guilty (unless they are Democrats).
I call for the liar Skillikorn to resign!
