Judge Says, "Not My Fault"
Damage control over at the Criminal Courts:
The Cook County judge who released a repeat violent felon with four pending felony cases on electronic monitoring last December, the same felon prosecutors now say escaped that monitoring and shot two Chicago police officers, killing one over the weekend, acknowledged during the hearing that the defendant likely would have faced “a minimum $1 million bail” under the state’s old cash bail system.
But Judge John Lyke said that era was over.
“Our esteem[ed] Legislature says, no, we’re not going to do that anymore,” Lyke said in reference to Pretrial Fairness Act provisions of the SAFE-T Act. “We’re going to make judges take a critical look at it.”And moments later, after explaining that he believed Alphonso Talley’s life of armed robberies and carjackings might have been the result of an underdeveloped brain that had since matured — even though Talley had allegedly committed an armed carjacking and an armed robbery with the same brain just eight months earlier — Lyke decided to let him go home on an ankle monitor.
Lyke noted, however, it was “over the state’s rigorous objection.”
So after claiming the Legislature forced him to take a look at the criminal record and then OUT OF THE FUCKING BLUE makes a medical determination that maybe this shitbird's brain is "underdeveloped" due to his extensive armed habitual criminal habits, he lets him go on a electronic monitoring system that has been proven TIME AND TIME AGAIN to fail to keep criminals in check.
You know what we remember worked pretty well at keeping criminals in check?
- concrete walls
- iron bars
- twelve feet of barbwire topped fencing
But democrats don't want that.

Have not voted for any dems in over 20 years.
Voted no on judges also.
Can't upset the voting base (looking at you, Aunties and Uncs) by having Junebug in the clink.
“Not my fault”?
Hmmm, sounds like a “Didn do nuffin”, only slightly more educated.
Thanks for letting us know you’re just another criminal.
Democrat’s are destroying the state of Illinois. They are using the criminals to destroy everything.
Is the 'judge' suffering from the same affliction?
Judge takes quick look at history.
Judge, being brain damaged, recognizes a fellow hatched from the same egg.
Cousin!!!
The judge is obviously a candidate for the Jimmy Kimmel Award for Outstanding Intelligence. Can a MacArthur Foundation Grant be far behind?
Tom Dart looks like he dodged an onslaught of bullets by giving EM to the judges' office.
Is it confirmed that he is Yoyo's relative?
The louisiana governor made a great speech recently. Maybe it should be played for our brainless political scum here in IL.
There's a young man, 40 years or so, who comes into a store that I frequent. It's obvious he has intellectual disabilities. He's loud, repeats himself, shuffles, essentially the brain of a 5 year old. There's no one minding him or telling him how to behave, he's there by himself. He often repeats himself and says things out loud like, "Stealing is wrong. People shouldn't hurt other people because it's not nice." Somewhere along the way, someone taught him that. He pays for his stuff and then walks to the bus stop or walks home and goes on to do the same week after week. His brain will never be more developed than that. If by this whole "undeveloped" brain nonsense libs want to now hang their hats on, why isn't every 7,8,9,10 year old and every adult who has intellectual disabilities out there committing crime sprees? I mean by the Liberal thought process, the streets should be overrun with all sorts and demographics of child and mentally disabled criminals committing violent and repeat crimes. It doesn't happen because that's not why people commit crimes. Largely, those that commit crimes grow up in cultures who accept it as a norm and they go on to keep committing those crimes when there are no consequences. The whole undeveloped brain shit is just another excuse.
If there is anyone that has an "under developed brain", it is Judge Lyke. His determination is prima facie evidence of such!
A, guy. I got an underdeveloped brain too.
Gimme my .357 back and I'll show ya.
(pfft)

Judge John Lyke isn't just another far-left DEI judge. He's a co-conspirator in a massive criminal enterprise. He knew Talley would continue to violently rob (and most likely kill) once he was released. Talley was a gift and a message to the city and law enforcement that his judge hates so much. Far-left Democrats, politicians and judges are the new Jeff Forts and Bobby Seales in America.
The Black Caucus is responsible for the Safe-T Act and they have no intentions of changing it.
Our judicial system needs a total overhaul 🤬🤬🤬🤬
POS "judge" should lose his law license and be banned from the bench permanently.
Justice system...LoL...you men the Just-Us system...?
Remember vote NO !!! On all judges!!!
Nothing but demonrat appointees!!!
Lame brain judgement on Lykes part for once take ownership of it
Avoid responsibility for your actions seems to be the standard.
Whether your a degenerate predator or an incompetent pompous ass of a judge.
They ought to start having true truth in sentencing. No more of this 10 year BS that equals 5 years (50% reduction) minus time spent on EM (does that include the "free" days to roam?). By the time these cases go to court the guy walks as soon as he is sentenced. No wonder every one takes a plea deal.
What an asshole! And a big FUCK YOU to porky Pigster for putting his deadly “UnSafety Act” upon us. Pritzker never has to worry about these dangerous predators. He and his elitist family are surrounded by armed bodyguards 24/7.
the only people demoRATS want in jail are white, working-class American citizens and MAGA
Someday, all these politicians and judges will face karma. I hope it's way worse than what first responders and decent citizens who end up as victims have received.
What a piece of shit! Vote NO on retaining ANY Judge!
Well, whose fault is it? Who allowed this animal to walk the streets? After becoming a crime wave. The criminal cases against this animal were placed in one incompetent Judges hands. And this Judge tried to find reasons to let this animal walk out the door? The Preponderance of evidence clearly shows this animal has continued to violate local state law and started to become a liability to the public safety. But the same judge wants to give him another fresh start? And for what? Because he had a child! And the Animal has taken anger management classes!
This clearly shows what transpires in any Illinois court room is just more wasted air! The courts system in Illinois cannot change anything. And the court system cannot prevent this from happening again. They listen to the Animal say he will be nice and commit no more criminal acts. The animal will go to school and take classes to please the courts. But we all know this was just Bullshit! The cause of death sits right on top of Prickster and Raoul heads.
This officer is dead because the legislature failed to control the animals we deal with each day. They have decided to give more rights to the Animal than the Law Enforcement officers. And they will never say they were wrong?
Mark my words, this will continue to happen……
Be sort of amusing if the judge was prosecuted for practicing medicine without a license.
Let's repeal the "fairness" act and start over.
The judges brain is underdeveloped...all DemoRats and Judges make nothing but lies and excuses when they are up against the wall in the decisions they make. Truly sickening.
Psychological liberal-based babble to make those who are criminals “not really responsible” due to “underdeveloped brains”. If that were actually and factually true, then 18 year olds should never vote, go into the armed services, be allowed to marry, drive 2,000 pound vehicles on the street and the list goes on. A SEVEN YEAR old is capable of knowing right from wrong. A LIE vs TRUTH. All a big liberal scam so that prisons don’t have (and I quote) “too many black and brown in jail” but refuse to address why said persons COMMIT crimes, way beyond their percentage of the population.
Lyke is practicing medicine without a license, a serious criminal offense. Lock him up!
Waiting for the announcement of the investigation into the Judge’s interaction with the Talley crime family
If this guy with the underdeveloped drug soaked brain had committed these crimes anywhere outside of Cook County he would have been held in custody until trial.
We live in a totally lawless state city and County. Due to Democratic rule they destroy absolutely everything. They are pure evil. Nothing more nothing less! God bless the police it still try to do the job.
These commies are going to force their will on the population until the people say enough. I don't see that happening for quite some time.
This crooked dim wit must fancy himself as a neurologist too. Pathetic , should be fired and disbarred, maybe charged for not protecting the fine citizens of Chicago.
Classic fail Judge.
Social justice is locking them up away from the rest of us. There is no justice here, just preventable murder.
Speaking of undeveloped brains, the legislature has a whole bunch of them.
Judges can't even define a woman yet they're brain scientists.
just wait until Pritzker's affordable housing plan hits the suburbs with these politically-connected developers using taxpayer money to build public housing units in residential neighborhoods in places like LaGrange, Burr Ridge, Oak Brook, Riverside, etc.. People living in 1M plus homes will have to share their neighborhood with mentally ill and violent people like this cop killer and local zoning will be negated. The democrats want chaos and they have no limits on what they will do to people. Vote fraud and stupid liberals give the democrats full control. Stalin and Mao never had it this good.......
Maybe the white caucus should step up and fix this mess.
I agree with FOP prez on one thing, Time spent wearing an ankle monitor should not be considered time served when found guilty.
These Judges and the Black Caucus don’t give a f#$k about anybody but the criminal. This should fall directly on Pritzker and he should explain his definition of the word Safety.
there's always an excuse - an immature brain - ya, right all teenagers have immature brains, no?
“Hey maybe next time if we all vote really hard, we’ll finally get some changes!”
Maybe it’s time to consider that voting doesn’t work and something else needs to be done.
You know the most insulting part of this whole judge situation? One of my coworkers at my part time who is a county sheriff says the judge has been assigned a security detail!
When do they start blaming Trump, and why is the media ignoring the Trump shooters Tranny manifest.
and with a daddy in jail ticket the child will qualify for a lifetime of monthly income and shit load of excuses
For some reason I have a feeling if a pale face demon like myself was standing in front of Judge Lyke, he wouldn’t be so lenient with me. Someone like me should know better. You can’t expect someone like Talley to know better, obviously.
Correct, let’s see if local media reports this issue. Protecting criminals is their motto and their residents have had enough.
Judges fault. Much stricter laws and regulations needed in regard to release on bail/probation by judges and prosecutors, with criminal and $$$ penalties for abuse.
Can you hear this, DARREN BAILEY ?
OT. Why did tac Lt in 016 get dumped?
As the criminals are released by the judge hand them a list of addresses of prominent Dems, titled "Free housing and shyt".
Everyone here says "Vote NO on all Judges", but then voter turnout is about 27%, most of those blocks of machine voters bused in from churches, etc.
When is Lyke up for election again? Can we broadcast that date far & wide, to turn out a vote which actually represents the city at large?
We all better PRAY HARD Dems never win the WH! Back to Covid-type lockdowns, Climate BS, Wind-mills, Save the Planet crap that we got away from!
I wish we could. But we’re doomed.
I don’t think this judge could run a Burger King let alone be a judge. Stupid is as stupid does
God I am tired of this stupidity. Where is Thune on the voting act? It will help with this...
Yes, it's the judge's fault for not properly discerning (judging?) that the perp is going to perp again. Failed miserably at his job and tried to excuse it in advance of the next crime. Unfortunately in his TikTok haze, he forgot to do any research - - the human brain stops developing at around 30... and that presumes no drug use, etc.
But fundamentally the SAFE-T act is designed to remove personal accountability and to absolve all the perp's influences throughout his miserable life. Remember that this guy had teachers who ignored his needs. He had a community that ignored his behavior. He had a family that just ignored him.
I've seen dozens of kids overcome similar conditions. But for every one who succeeds, there are hundreds who do not. The street gangs, prisons, and political appointments are filled with them.
Illinois is a lost state. Dragged into the abyss by cook county
First...I've seen that guy. He is judge in Traffic Court...
Second...in 1950 over 50,000 people were under control of ILDPH...
How many now?
Did they all get healthy?
Most victims of violence, drug use are blacks. So BLM is total bs. BLDNM
Prepwinkle is the Leader
Maybe it’s the judge’s brain that is underdeveloped as he makes one bad decision after another is releasing criminals to prey on citizens. The judge should retire as he is not fit to serve. The judge is a danger to law-abiding citizens because of his bad decisions. Of sound mind he is not.
If I were to strip myself butt naked, shove a lit flare up my ass and wave my wife's severed head in the middle of downtown at noon you might be able to make a case that I was fucking nuts and needed to be held in police custody. BUT NOT IN CHICAGO. OR THE STATE OF ILLINOIS.LET THAT FUCKING SINK IN ...ANY CORPORATION THINKING OF MOVING TO THIS STATE. GO ELSEWHERE..ANYWHERE..
Maybe I watch too many Perry Mason reruns, but I always thought that judges had to make decisions based on evidence. What evidence is there that Talley's brain has "matured" when he still makes pretty poor life choices, one of which has cost an officer his life? One indication of maturity is taking accountability for one's actions, which Talley has never done. Same brain, same actions, not fit to live in society.
Simple solution: abolish Judicial Immunity, and watch these judges make sound decisions for once.
At 5 years of age, my brain was developed enough to comprehend being taught right from wrong by my parents and my kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Diamond.
While Talley—a clear danger to the public—was released, Steve Fanady, a handicapped man with no criminal record, has been left to rot in Cook County Jail for nearly four years, much of it in solitary confinement, over a 20-year-old private property dispute. He hasn't had a compliance status hearing in more than two years. Judge Beach has the power to put him on electronic monitoring but hasn't acted. All while claiming her office goes above and beyond to keep dangerous people like Talley behind bars.
Why is EM an option for violent felonies?
John F Lyke. The F stands for F**kface.
One of the smartest moves Tommy boy ever did
Speaking of Yolanda Talley. Yolanda Talley has family members in Broadview with the last name Walker. Shithead nieces and nephews run rampant from the westside of Chicago through Maywood and Broadview. Maywood is where Alderman Jason Irvin’s drug infested property was (google it).
As sergeant, Y. Talley was intentionally placed in Narcotics by Al. Wyzinger. He pushed to place her in positions of influence to benefit the westside connected. Al Wyzinger also
cashed in on favors owe to him by Eric Carter and had Carter to make her the chief of BIA )police accountability). Being Chief of BIA, particularly BIA confidential allowed Talley to place significant pressure on officers, to hold back officers from making certain arrests, strip those that did and put confidential CR’s on any officer the bucked up against her.
Needless to say, I can’t tell you how many gangbangers that I cubed on the westside that called Al Wyzinger on his personal number during the stop. It was so bad that Wyzinger showed up at a district processing room to visit one of my arrestees who was a top dealer on the westside.
For many reasons, Aldermen and clergy members on the westside are very particular who get assigned to district commander of westside districts. They prefer a specific race and low tolerance level. Barb West and all of the former westside brass played the game. Barb West even made Y. Talley her administrative sergeant in personnel and upon being promoted to lieutenant, Talley was sent to 015, where she was appointed to district commander. Al Wyzinger’s wife was sent to Organized Crime Division to oversee the unit until she retired and skipped town. The integrity of the department has been compromised for many years now.
Bartenders are held liable for damages caused by serving obviously drunk patrons. Too bad judges and prosecutors aren't held to the same standard for obvious malpractice.
Im sure the Judge knew who his Auntie was...have to take care of the ghetto and mammas family
Judge is a typical shithead…just has money.
Don’t think so. Only saw one comment and I’m sure if her was it would have been confirmed by now and publicized
And exactly WHEN did was the change made to let brain damaged, critically psycho crazy homicidal maniacs go free, unmonitored on the reasoning that:
“Oh his brain is severely damaged, he’s crazy”.
Back in Merry Old England when some violent, crazy monster like Rennfeld in “Dracula” or Mr Hyde was stalking the streets and alleys attacking regular people, this was more of a reason to put the dangerous crazy monster away in an asylum or sent to a penal colony (Australia, South America)
Anybody ever remember the Hitchkock movie “Psycho” and Norman Bates - who was crazy and a Tranny?
Today the Norman Bates Character would be sponsored and promoted by the Libtard Demorats as an acceptable alternative lifestyle and he would have free access to the women’s bathroom to spy on and ya know, do to many other Chicago women what he was doing to those pretty women guests at the Bates Motel.
It’s there to give the “illusion” of Justice to the victim. The current half sentencing is there to obfuscate that victims mean nothing to liberal legislators.
yet every time I give my unprofessional opinion about a criminal when testifying I hear objection and the judge says "sustained"
If I were to say that black people just can't control themselves and, therefore, should be held to a lower standard - I'd be labeled "racist". But when black politicians say the same thing via legislation, it's progress. Sign me Puzzled in KC.
hey j-goff he is talleys nephew - per my suburban leo guy
No he would be dead where he belongs!
Keep your protective eye on that 40 year old whenever you can. Shitheads will strike when given any opportunity.
IKR? Get the Python out of the safe
100 % correct
Somebody should deliver this one man crime wave to the state house in Springfield. Let him mingle with the legislators.
Get rid of the SafeT act now. Also, give concealed carry holders a box of ammo per month and let them take care of the problem. Give them permission to ride the trains and crime there will drop like a stone.
Chicago values since 1837
Judges who release criminals should be required to let them stay at their home for 30 days.
Village idiot masquerading as a judge
What do the judges say in court?
Ignorance of the Law is no excuse……..the judge allegedly did his job and it killed a police officer!
We need a referendum on future ballots to repeal tge safe t act .
Remember that name Judge John Lyke and never vote to retain this disgraceful piece of wet defecation. Never vote for any of those Crook County loathsome and disgraceful judges. From the Chief Judge to the last Black Robed dog ass judge in this corrupt county. May you suffer the same victimology that you inflict on the rest of the residents in this city. The Democrat "don't blame me" excuses holds no water here. You are part of the Democrat Crime Machine. We know it and so do you.
but pwickster said it was the judge's fault, let's see if the judges start fighting back
The Norman Bates character wasn’t trans.
Did you even see the movie?
Next time wait until someone asks for your opinion. Then maybe there will be no objection.
Thune is killing it. A RINO, always has been.
Wow
Amazing how an "underdeveloped brain" can "mature" in moments...it will get Monster back on the street, but at trial, doesn't it invalidate any defense based on incompetency?
Just crazy.
This judge, as others have said, should be disbarred and prosecuted for practicing medicine without a license.
This miraculous "Lykes' Restorative Tonic Water" of his should be bottled and sold door-to-door.
Does it also cure TDS?
OT but, like, wow, man.
Tiffany Henyard was reportedly living in Georgia while still serving as Dolton mayor, collecting pay
The Illinois 'super mayor' is looking to run for the Fulton County Commission
Former Illinois "super mayor" Tiffany Henyard was reportedly a resident of Georgia while still serving as Dolton mayor in 2025.
After losing her bid for re-election as Dolton mayor, Henyard has since launched a campaign to run in South Fulton County's District 5 on the Fulton County Commission AS A REPUBLICAN.

When you have no marketable skills, politics is your only resort.
Parasite. Invasive species. Useless bloodsucker.
See the sentences regarding seeing who's in jail. They tell us everything about this dei judge. It's not his job to rig the system. Get rid of both of them.
https://cwbchicago.com/2026/04/friends-for-25-years-the-judge-who-freed-cop-killer-and-the-chief-judge-who-couldnt-fix-an-ankle-monitor-program.html
🤮🤮🤬🤬🤬🤬
Vote NO on every judge.
Stop the nonsense.
Let the good ones find a job. They can run again.
Vote as many Republicans that are on the ballot.
I was curious, so I had to look it up. He was literally married for 4 years. The property dispute is 16 years old. I highly doubt a guy who could pay, would spend 3 years in CC jail for this. They literally reopened up a 10 year judgement and quintupled the amount of the judgement. I've never had that kind of money, but if he's hiding it in some offshore account all in hopes of avoiding the payout, you gotta give it to him for spending that kind of jail time.
Yeah. Just like her strong-arming the dope car out of an impound was publicized. Get real.
True dat.
The liberal voters in these suburban areas who voted for it now earned the right to live with the incoming shit. You are getting fu#@ked by the pig you voted into the governorship of Illinois, and he isn't even looking you in the eyes while you're getting reamed. Enjoy - cause you deserve it.
