Trespass on Astor Street

We need more of this:

  • A man on pretrial release in a felony retail theft case that he picked up while already on pretrial release for another shoplifting charge disappeared from the Cook County chief judge’s electronic monitoring program for 11 days before authorities found him again — in the back yard of Gov. JB Pritzker’s Gold Coast mansion, court records show.

    Those records also indicate that, despite Chief Judge Charles Beach’s public pledge that “major violations” of the court’s electronic monitoring program would be brought before a judge within 24 hours, 10-time convicted felon Dwayne Milton began violating the terms of his release almost immediately upon being outfitted with an ankle monitor, and those violations continued for six consecutive nights before the matter was reported to a judge.

    Around 10 p.m. on July 4, Chicago police officers were dispatched to the governor’s residence in the 1400 block of North Astor Street to assist Illinois State Police troopers assigned to Pritzker’s security detail. Troopers had detained Milton, 46, after he allegedly jumped into the governor’s back yard.

    A state trooper told CPD officers that they had been monitoring the mansion’s security cameras when they saw Milton attempting to scale over the governor’s rear gate before successfully entering the property. He is charged with misdemeanor trespassing.

Gee, a ten-time-convicted felon - surely he's learned his lesson by now!

  • Doubtful SCC....and don't call me Shirley 

Every paroled or ankle monitored criminal should be given a slip of paper upon release with this address on it along with a promise of free food, candy and a grape pop.
