QuoteCHICAGO — A Venezuelan migrant has been detained as a safety threat, his 13th arrest in a year, after he allegedly tried to rob a woman of her bike in Streeterville.A 43-year-old woman intervened when she saw Santiago Josue Baragas Rodriguez, 19, using a rock to try to break the lock of her electric bike in the 400 block of North City Front Place, a Chicago police report said. When she tried to take her bike back, Rodriguez swung the rock, slapped, and struggled with her, according to the report. ...Judge Caroline Glennon-Goodman granted the state’s detention petition, noting that Rodriguez already has three misdemeanor cases pending and he’s been arrested in Chicago eleven times this year. Yet, the judge wrote, he “continues to commit crimes against citizens in Chicago.” The three pending cases all involve shoplifting allegations.In fact, Cook County court records show Rodriguez has been arrested 13 times since November 1, 2023. Prosecutors dropped most of the cases even though Rodriguez failed to appear in court. ...Whatever happened to issuing a capias warrant whenever a criminal defendant failed to appear for a schedule court date? Good grief.The many moods - and mugshots - of Santiago.
