He needs too be appointed for this. He’ll send this dirty cop to prison for awhile. Even first time felony offenders have gotten prison sentences in Ham Co recently. We used too have a bad meth problem in this county….not so much anymore. Him and Judge Barry Vaughan make a good combination.

He does do a good job, doesn’t he?

Unfortunately, he has to be appointed, & we have no influence over that…but here’s hoping he IS.

For what I can tell. since the cop had no right too bust in like that. This is Home Invasion, Aggravated Battery/Great Bodily Harm, and at least 3 or 4 other charges. Evan Owens won’t be able to prosecute this almost bet cause of “conflict of interest”. Someone should call in Justin Hood to prosecute this as role of Special Prosecutor. Even the special prosecutors office (rollover rands) won’t get the job done. Also Grimes should sue the living shit out of this cop for this. I hate when cops think they are “above the law” and can do whatever the hell they want. It makes the cops that actualy do their job right look bad too. Prayers for a good recovery for Grimes. But Jack and Ang strong reccommendation you contact Justin Hood too take a look at this. He might be one of the few states attorney’s I know that is actually doing their damn job.

I’ll tell ya how lame Franklin County is ….. I know of an incident that occurred in the Christopher police department that occurred of a suspect named Overton was arrested, while handcuffedand leg shackled in the police department to a bench the suspect was tased by Ben Burkhamer (then a Zeigler cop,now a Christopher cop) to the point that he defecated on himself, all because he was mouthing. Officer Trogolo gave Overton a trash bag to wear and he was transported to jail that way. Isn’t that cute ?

Not sure how crooked things are in Franklin County but i can guarantee Saline County is corrupt. I have been to many places and have lived in a few places but never seen anything like Saline County Illinois USA.

Amen about Saline Co. Ray Ray was not as smart a george Henley. His own son will tell you how he parlayed drugs for dad. How daddy would pocket some of the drug money on busts. That’s how he could afford to buy houses. cabins boats etc. on a measly sheriffs salary! I for one was threatened by him in 1979. He said I was a smart ass and would make me unrecognizable. Hell if you ever notice his fat ass only showed up for his pic to get in the newspaper! His fat ass ain;t going to do any actual physical leg work; but hey in saline county the still suck his dick and beg for more, The crooked gov here thinks he is a saint

Southern Illinois is known for this shit. A few years ago I was told this guy in saline county said the same thing happened to him. But he said he was turned lose and all charges dropped for him keeping his mouth shut….
