Not on the criminals side, but you’re gonna go to prison, but the cops aren’t there yet, and you’re just gonna stand around and wait for them? by Doggydog212

Was charged with a felony a year prior too. Not great at navigating all this legal stuff but I believe the code is this one…

> C) not less than 8 years and not more than 40 years with respect to 400 grams or more but less than 900 grams of any substance containing heroin;

I’m not sure about how many of the previous 4 assault/battery charges were felonies but will try to follow up.

Chicago actually makes finding criminal court records much more difficult than others (is anyone really surprised?)

At the end of it all, he is currently scheduled to spend <6 years in prison and was found guilty of armed robbery WITHOUT FIREARM, theft of >300 with prior intent (sentence discharged so this was a freebie), robbery (another freebie as this sentence was also discharged).

It’s shocking lightfoot even got 15% of the vote.

Correction: violent felonies.

I think in every state with bail reform, violent felonies you are always held in jail without bond

I’m confused as to what you were trying to correct here.

He was released on bail/bond in under 2 days and was then free for ~18 months until his actual sentence began.

I was correcting myself. And my bad I didn’t click the link and look at the specific case, I thought your excerpt was from a previous one. You’re right he post bail 2 days later. The news report said he was held without bail. The judge must have reversed his decision or News just got it wrong.

Regardless it’s not bail reform because I’m sure he posted bond. Although that info doesn’t appear to be there
