"I will not raise my son here. I am fortunate enough to have the means to escape, so my entire family is leaving the State of Illinois. I grew up here, my family and friends are here, and yet my own employer has turned it into a place from which I am no longer proud to be, and in which my son is not safe."

Poje outlined a series of 'so-called reforms' backed by Lightfoot and Illinois Governor J. B. Pritzker which he said had inevitably led to more crime.

Poje wrote: 'The worst part is that the agency for whom I work has backed literally every policy change that has the predictable, and predicted, outcome of more crime and more people getting hurt."

Chicago's Southside is upset.


'Why would any leader put our black communities, already riddled with crime, at further risk by placing unvetted non-taxpayers steps away from our seniors, our children and our homes that we have worked so hard to secure?' another furious resident asked at a press conference.

Cocaine dealer whose life sentence was commuted by Obama in 2015 is charged with shooting female passenger during road rage incident and leaving her BRAIN-DEAD, with victim not expected to survive​

  • Alton Mills, 54, a former coke dealer whose life sentence was commuted by Obama in 2015, has been charged with three counts of attempted murder
  • The suspect was allegedly involved in a road rage shooting that left a woman brain dead after being shot when several bullets entered the car she was in
  • Mills' original sentence was commuted in December 2015, leading to his release in early 2016 after spending 22 years incarcerated


It occurred in the small hours of the morning shortly after three friends left a nightclub in the south of the city.

The car the group were traveling in came up behind Mills' SUV at a red light near the I-57 on-ramp in Posen, Illinois, but Mills did not move even after the light had turned green.

The driver of the other vehicle instead proceeded to pass him without even honking or shouting but Mills appeared to take affront.

He suddenly sped up to catch the car the friends were in and lowered his window before firing three shots from the drivers side, according to Assistant State's Attorney Kathryn Morrissey, during Mills' bail hearing.

One of the bullets struck a woman who had fallen asleep in the back seat of the car leading to a severe head injury from which she is now unlikely to recover.

Senator Dick Durbin ( D-Ill ) and Senator Elizabeth Warren ( D-MA ) were cheerleaders for his early release, in 2015.
