Coming Soon to Illinois

  • Under New York’s " justice reforms," criminals must be provided with the names and contact information of victims and witnesses involved in the case against them.

    Effective January 1, 2020, prosecutors will have just 15 days from the time of arraignment to hand over all evidence pertaining to a case – including victim and witness information, WSTM reported. Cases can be dismissed if prosecutors fail to meat [sic] the deadline, Albany County District Attorney David Soares told the news outlet.

    “’By the way, I have to provide your cell phone number to his lawyer in a few weeks,’” Soares used as an example of what he will be forced to tell crime victims. “I don’t know how I’m going to have these conversations with a victim.”

    Under the law change, the court can also require crime scenes to remain unchanged so that defendants can be allowed to visit them, the New York Daily News reported.
COPA already tries to do a lighter version of this, and anyone who has been to a deposition knows these types of questions get asked all the time. Corp Counsel "objects" but you still have to answer and it's still in the record.

Pretty soon, the public is going to insist on their own version of being "fetal" and there won't even be a report generated.

No worries, as a victim or witness I’ll probably be transitioning to the opposite sex with a different race and adjust my age (just tell me I can’t...I’ll file a beef) with a non functioning phone number. Even better, I may identify as my offender as a form of therapy and supply their info.

Illinois has evidence and discovery deposition both - a real goofy state. The two types play out in civil matters mostly. Only in a discovery deposition can some questions asked possibly not get answered.

Criminal matters are the evidence sort where answers are always compelled, with objections just noted.

It can be fucking brutal. Seems at times the system is slanted against you uh?

Illinois amended the constitution for victims' rights.

Section 8.1 of the Illinois Constitution

Wonder how this balance of victims' rights vs the rights of the accused will play out statewide...

Chicago is usually third to follow the advancements in social and criminal justice of its coastal sisters.

Imagine you shoot a burglar in your home or a burglar advances up the career ladder and rapes females in home or worse murders them, does this mean the crime scene is to remain as is for later visitation by offender? Sure sounds like it if court so rules.

Isn’t voting democratic so rewarding and uplifting to the spirit?

Look on the bright side -- once Crimesha gets her paws on this strategery there will be no need for bonds, cash or imaginary. Tim Evans can lay off all the judges. Tommy Dart can tell the last convict to turn out the lights when he leaves jail.

No witnesses will ever admit to being a witness for fear of reprisal before the trial date. No one will risk dropping a dime on any criminal act, so violent criminals will never be arrested.

Policing will become a form of library science, nice and quiet.

NY is completely out of control with their new criminal justice reform and Bail reform program which goes into effect Jan 01. NY and California are leading the Country in their stupidity and pro criminal anti police stances. They are both Socialist states. Illinois and Chicago are way left, But we re not socialist , yet. I don’t see how we would get anyone to cooperate under these rules, and I wouldn’t want them too either. Have you see all the crimes that judges can no longer ask for cash bonds for in NY starting Jan 01??!

Then this coming now

Here’s a look at tax and fee increases coming to Chicago in 2020
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/ct-lori-lightfoot-2020-tax-fee-hikes-20191230-fgsfalgvzjgofa6lbtdkashchy-story.html

Excerpt:
And there’s still the question of the $163 million worth of ambulance reimbursements the city’s counting on from the federal government as a major piece of Lightfoot’s package to close the financial shortfall.
While the mayor says she’s confident the approval will be coming soon from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, critics worry Lightfoot eventually will need to seek another tax or fee increase if federal officials under President Donald Trump deny the request.

*so Lori you are the other democrats disrespecting the taxpayers and the office of the President the greatest economic President Trump in history refusing to meet air force 1, when it landed your social justice program allows criminals to run wild like Kim Toni and the rest, and you think we are getting federal cash? Your already allowing illegals in droves to come here and more federal money is not coming as you totally disregard federal laws,

No mayor the taxpayers are being forced to pay more due to negligence on the part of democrats. Why is it liberal publications are calling Illinois cook county Chicago the most corrupt city state county in the country. The feds are starting to grab people but nothing when we see them being paraded into the federal building on the buses it will be a great day for the honest law-abiding citizens. And to the people that disrespect the police the thin blue line just a thought we are all there is between you and total utter chaos. The police are being bastardized being put down being handcuffed by the elected Democrats on a constant basis how much more can I demoralize the hard-working blue shirt Chicago police officer? May God bless the police!!

Uhmmm, if the crime scene remains the same (in homocide cases) how is the coroner suppose to do his job? If the crime scene is your bedroom (non homocide cases), do I sleep in the bathtub or on the street?

List the reasons you think a victim would want to communicate to help the defense. How the fuck are there actually people who think like this? A murderer should have the address and phone number of the witnesses against him in case he has some questions for them? What could possibly go wrong?

killing crime by legal intimidation of victims & witnesses. This is how you kill crime in the City of Chicago, State of Illinois, & the rest of the United States, eventually.
Only the rich, on the Gold Coast of Chicago will be able to afford personal bodyguards, but of course, you too will have no crime, no report, no trial.

Sad about the 21 year old hair saloon owner, Destiny Harrison, killed in Bmore. Got to give her credit for starting a business and had been doing well. She had been the victim of a theft of some 3k worth of hair extensions and when she asked the man and woman (who for her property back she was beaten up. Just two days later she was shot and killed in her business. She had filed a report and a protection order as she knew one of the scumbags to be quite violent. She told family she was scared. The two suspects were arrested and charged with assault, theft and burglary. No mention if they were released on bond or not. No one has been arrested for her murder. The worthless politicians don't care about this young lady. Black on black crime, they sound like Sgt Carter, "I can't hear you". She leaves behind a very young child. No mention of a grieving father. They held a vigil but nothing will change in that city.
