Coles Co. (ECWd) –

Below are a couple of the Coles County Sheriff’s Office’s body cam footage taken during the search warrant issued due to Kyley Willisons’ criminal conduct, for which he was convicted of theft of public funds while a Trustee for the Oakland Fire Protection District.

A couple of notable points in the first video include the beautiful granite countertops in the kitchen, paid for by the taxpayers of Oakland FPD, and the deputy’s comment at the end of the video, confirming that he seized some records. Kyley’s father indicated that all the records were at the fire department when his place was searched, as confirmed in this article with video.

The deputy also noted that the Willisons have a beautiful home.  We agree.  I guess when the taxpayers subsidise their “living expenses,” it’s easier to fix up an old farm house.

    I knew a farmer who’s house was just as beautiful, and they were as honest as the day is long, you can’t judge someone because they have a beautiful home, sometimes it just depends where you place your priorities when spending money. I’m just saying you can’t accuse someone of a crime because they keep up thier house

      This guy WAS convicted of a crime. Theft of over a quarter million dollars. No where in the article do we judge the person based on the looks of his house. If your attempting to defend this guy because you know an honest farmer your should really do you homework on what this guy stole from the public.
