What in the holy heck? Trump pardoned a huge gang leader and frankly, gangs are the scourge of our state and our nation. At the same time, it seems kind of compassionate. He had been in prison for better than 50 years. As an added bonus, there is a 200-year…
You read that right. The Illinois House just passed HB-850 which would allow for "clear and present danger" complaints to the Illinois State Police where the complainants' identity is kept secret.
