Illinois quick hits: More fallout after Biden commutation; Flash Index drops

More fallout after Biden commutation

Backlash continues to grow after President Joe Biden commuted the sentence of former Dixon Comptroller Rita Crundwell, who stole millions from the community to supplement her lavish lifestyle.

Crundwell was convicted more than a decade ago of embezzling $54 million in the largest municipal embezzlement case in U.S. history. Originally sentenced to nearly 20 years in federal prison, she was released to home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021.
 
The Dixon city manager says the pardon is a “travesty of justice.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Anyone else find the irony of Pedo Joe commuting a crook of this magnitude  from Reagan's childhood home?

Ol Joe....   A cacophony of wrongdoing.
