On May 4th, McHenry County State’s Attorney Patrick Kenneally wrote a strong letter to local legislators asking for opposition to a bill that would rollback penalties for breaking drug laws.
Commenter “Correcting” noted that the Illinois House had already passed the bill and that is was now in the Senate.
Here is the House Roll Call from April 21st, where the bill passed with just one vote to spare:
@Cynthia, This county has a multitude of services offered to the public.
When someone is a first time offender I think they can go through drug court.
Mental Health that your tax dollars support is another avenue.
There are plenty of avenues for people to get help.
They just choose not to.
Then when they get arrested they still have choices.
How many chances do they get now a days.
I would like to see that statistic of someone serving 50 yrs for marijuana offenses.
If it is just 1 person than save it!
The system is perfect and will never be but the system has changed a lot over the past 15-20 yrs.
The liberals want no one to serve for anything.
At least Keaneally prosecutes drug violations where no other collar county does.
Figures.
The Dems won’t be happy til we have open borders, our streets are riddled with crime and everyone who can’t handle ‘life’ is on drugs.

Well, ‘Detached from reality’ would certainly describe Schenk and Ness!
Who appointed Cynthia Allen Skank to opine on anything beyond her forte, go go dancing in the 60s?
Cynthia, that photo was taken 42 years ago.
Because Leopardman did not graduate 8th grade and the others most likely received GED’s their comments are those of the ignorant and uneducated.
On one hand they cry about taxes but due to their inability to comprehend cause and effect plus basic math skills they have zero idea what they are talking about..again and as
