This February 1, 2013, Chicago Tribune article may echo the situation the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office faced when Sgt. Greg Pyle was arrested for predatory criminal sexual assault.

It’s been over a year since McHenry County Sheriff’s Sgt. Greg Pyle was arrested for criminal sexual assault, but those with good memories might see some similarities with the problem facing the Lake County Sheriff’s Department in a Chicago Tribune story Friday.

First Sheriff Keith Nygren’s deputy was arrested in January, 2012, on state charges of predatory criminal sexual assault.

At the time, he was on the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force as a result of the job Nygren gave him.

Pyle stayed on the county payroll.

Then, in August, the Feds stepped in to arrest him for

  • aggravated sexual abuse of a child and
  • producing child pornography by the sexual exploitation of a child

Concurrently, the accused left Nyrgen’s payroll.

Now the Tribune is reporting that former Lake County Sheriff Lt. Rick White is being investigated for having sexual conduct with a teenage boy.

The internet Tribune headline reads,

“Prosecutors investigating allegation that former Lake County cop had sexual contact with teen, authorities say”

White was “on paid leave for two months” before he retired.

Not charged with a crime, the Tribune says.

But, White was an internet guy.

Similar job to Pyle’s.

A performance review, the Tribune reporters Dan Hinkel and David Heizmann found, said While was “a pioneer in the field of Internet child solicitation.

  1. Cal when you posted Salaries for McHenry County, the P’s as is Pyle was missing . . . are we sure that he is no longer on the payroll . . . and Nygren has never released a press release that he is no longer with the MCSD.

    Did I miss something????

  2. Someone should FOIA the visitor logs for Sir Pumkin Pyle.

    See if anyone we know is visiting him in the joint.

  3. I thought he went off the payroll, the day the Feds arrested him.

  4. Interestingly, for those of you who followed my former blog, Dirty Keith vs. Dirty Harry, you might recall I had been tracking “Pyle” via computerized tracking. I provided my readers and authorities with the results as I circled many towns that were searching out “Greg Pyle.”

    I wish I could show you the raw data, I cannot.

    However I can tell you “Round Lake,” Illinois, has been the number one town in the entire country that I traced Pyle too and those who have sought out Pyle.

    Now, we have this!!

    As I’ve stated not long ago, this is all going to get very ugly. If you could see what data I have, a picture is now unfolding.

  5. Somebody snagged my moniker … very classy.

    Now two or more people are posting under my username.

    I am literally that good.
