Teresa Boehm’s Two-Count Felony Indictment Was Nolle Prosequi’d Today –

So, the citizens on the Shelby County Grand Jury got it wrong? That seems to be the claim of one commenter here. Surely the jury was instructed in the law on which to make their decision.

Was there any doubt this would be the outcome?

No Cynthia, what it means is, when one brings petty BS charges against an otherwise honorable and very well liked person, much less an elected official, the POWERS THAT BE often will do the right thing and file them where they should be, in the garbage can. This is the case of a small county representative, popularly elected, who filled a temporary void on an almost non existing small cemetery board. Yes, a small county cemetery board. The compensation most likely barely covered the gas money tp get to the board meetings. Come along a vindictive States Attorney, himself wrought with past criminal charges, and an equally vindictive County Board majority (subsequently voted out in the last election) and you’re faced with a complete waste of taxpayer’s money. YOU should count your blessings that often crimes are overlooked or deemed not worthy of pursuit. So should the disgraced Former (short lived) State’s Attorney Mr. Hanlon. Had justice been carried out to the full extent of the law, he would not have had the opportunity to serve the short period he did as State’s Attorney. The ONLY THING the vast majority of Shelby County residents and more importantly, voters, find “PATHETIC AND DISTURBING” is the fact that you and your gang were ever allowed an opportunity to bring your vile and criminal act our way.

Is it any wonder Illinois is the most corrupt state in the nation? When the judicial branch protects the bad actors instead of the victims, society has lost its way. When those who take an oath to uphold the law and constitution trample those laws under their selfishness and steal from the very ones they are to serve, society has lost its way.

Not shocking in the Fourth Circuit where state’s attorneys do not have the testicular fortitude to do their job.

So our laws don’t matter. We might as well fire all the judges and government employees since those hired or voted into office to protect citizens by enforcing our laws are not willing to do their jobs. Pathetic and disturbing.
