Dixon man accused of attempted murder will remain jailed despite defense’s continued argument for release

OREGON – A rural Dixon man charged with the attempted murder of three police officers at his residence in June will remain jailed.

Jonathon Gounaris, 32, is charged with four counts of attempted first-degree murder, three counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm, three counts of aggravated battery and two counts of possession of a firearm without a firearm owner’s identification card – all of which stem from a June 12 standoff with police in the rural Dixon subdivision of Lost Lake.

Gounaris has pleaded not guilty to all charges and is being held in the Winnebago County Jail in Rockford.

On Feb. 6, Gounaris appeared for a status hearing before Judge John “Ben” Roe only two weeks after his previous hearing Jan. 23.

Ogle County Assistant Public Defender Michael O’Brien said he “set this aggressively” because “I’ve been asked to aggressively pursue detention issues.”

Usually the court schedules status hearings about a month apart. O’Brien requested an earlier date at the Jan. 23 hearing, when he also made extensive arguments for Gounaris’ release.

That day, O’Brien said one argument was not made at the June 20 detention hearing regarding the circumstances surrounding officers’ entry to the home in the 400 block of Wild Rice Lane in Lost Lake.

At the detention hearing, Gounaris was represented by former Ogle County Public Defender William Gibbs, who has since left that position.

During a news conference June 12, Ogle County Sheriff Brian VanVickle said police were called at 8:39 a.m. that day to the residence with a warning that it could be a “suicide-by-cop” situation. The officers were informed that Gounaris had made suicidal and homicidal threats.

Shortly after officers arrived, the Ogle County Sheriff’s Office’s Emergency Response Team was called. That team is made up of individuals from different agencies, including the sheriff’s office, Oregon and Byron police departments and SWAT medics from the Rochelle Fire Department.

Police attempted more than 60 phone

calls to the residence, Gounaris’ cellphone and a throw phone that was deployed inside the home, VanVickle said.

At 11:53 a.m., police breached the door to the home and immediately were met with gunfire from inside the house, VanVickle said. Three deputies and Gounaris were shot while exchanging gunfire.

At the Jan. 23 hearing, O’Brien said “the call [to police] was made because of mental health concerns” and called the police response a “paradox of a welfare check.”

Assistant State’s Attorney Heather Kruse disagreed and argued Feb. 6 for Gounaris’ continued detention.

Kruse said that since O’Brien’s Jan. 23 arguments she did some research into case law about change in circumstance and referenced two Illinois court cases that address the issue.

Based on those cases, she argued that the court doesn’t need to continue to consider Gounaris’ release since the court initially deemed detention necessary at the June 20 hearing and nothing has changed in terms of the risk to the public.

“It’s been reviewed to be necessary nine times. Today is the 10th time it’s been argued and nothing has changed,” Kruse said.

O’Brien disagreed. He said he understands the reasoning for bringing these cases, but doesn’t view them as an absolute rule.

On the contrary, “as we’re going over evidence and gathering information it would violate due process rights” to not consider arguments for release, O’Brien said.

O’Brien then reiterated his arguments related to the officers’ use of force saying that the circumstances were not fully addressed at previous hearings.

When police arrived at the residence, they never announced themselves as police over a loud speaker, he said. Instead, they established a perimeter far away from the home and concealed themselves and their vehicles.

Officers received no communication from Gounaris before they forcibly kicked in the door to gain entry into the home, O’Brien said.

He said that according to Illinois law, officers cannot use deadly force on some-

one who’s a threat to themselves unless the officer has a reasonable belief that the person poses an “imminent threat” to the officer, O’Brien said.

An imminent threat means a person poses an immediate and serious danger of causing death or great bodily harm, according to the Illinois General Assembly website.

Gounaris was by himself in the residence on the day of the incident and Gounaris’ mother said she was concerned Gounaris could harm officers if they approached him, O’Brien said.

“Imminence was created by the officers’ use of force and their entry to the home,” O’Brien said.

Kruse disagreed based on her past arguments.

“The critiques on the officers have already been addressed,” Kruse said.

At the Jan. 23 hearing, Kruse said Gounaris’ mother informed police that he had access to two guns.

She said police made multiple calls to

the residence before deploying the throw phone, which was done before entry was made.

When officers did breach the door to the residence, “the defendant fired before anybody entered the home,” she said.

Gounaris was wearing a bulletproof vest and began “shooting multiple rounds not only into but also at officers,” Kruse said. Three of them were struck and injured.

O’Brien disagreed Feb. 6. He asked the court to continue to review detention.

O’Brien argued for Gounaris’ release and said conditions could include things such as GPS tracking and stay-away and no-contact orders.

Kruse disagreed based on past arguments.

In the end, Roe denied the request for release “based on previous court rulings ordering continued detention.”

Gounaris’ next court appearance is scheduled for 3 p.m. March 6.

A 32nd-degree Mason, Mike was an active member of the Erie Masonic Lodge. He was also a charter member of the Lake Erie Country Club and an avid golfer. Mike’s love for the game was evident, and he was thrilled to achieve his first hole-in-one at the age of 80, followed by his second at 82—both witnessed by his lifelong best friend, RK Thorpe.

Mike had a gift for storytelling, captivating listeners with vivid details and dates.

Tampico to celebrate sesquicentennial year with Feb. 22 kickoff ceremony

SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK contact@shawmedia.com

TAMPICO – Tampico, the birthplace of President Ronald Reagan, is set to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the village’s incorporation with a sesquicentennial kickoff Saturday, Feb. 22.

The celebration begins at 2 p.m. at the Reagan Community Center, 202 W. Second St. Tampico Mayor Bruce Peltier, the Tampico Area Historical Society and Elevate Tampico will host the event.

“Beginning Tampico’s 150th anniversary with such a fantastic sesquicentennial kickoff event will be the perfect start to a yearlong celebration in such a historic community,” Peltier said.

Festivities will continue throughout the year, including the annual Tampico Days celebration July 17-20.

“We are beyond excited to share our local history and pride of Tampico and surrounding communities with everyone,” said Jenee Blackert of the Tampico Area Historical Society.

The Feb. 22 ceremony includes a proclamation by the mayor, an appearance

by state Sen. Li Arellano and the honoring of past village administrations.

The free event is open to the public.

The event will include a live auction with auctioneer Rob Young that features a Traeger grill and many other

items, multiple silent auction items, dessert auction items and a 50/50 raffle.

There also will be Tampico sesquicentennial merchandise and memorabilia for sale.

“Kicking off Tampico’s sesquicentennial with this event will send us into the Tampico Days celebrations in July with lots of energy,” said Mallory Wetzell of Elevate Tampico.

Sean Sandrock of the Ronald Reagan Birthplace and Museum said Tampico holds so much history.

“This kickoff event will be the perfect opportunity for our community to share their history and the town’s excitement for the annual celebrations,” Sandrock said.

The village of Tampico was founded by J.W. Glassburn on his farmland in the northeast corner of Tampico Township.

Ronald Reagan was born in Tampico on Feb. 6, 1911, and was the 40th president of the United States from 1981-1989. Reagan is the only president born in Illinois.

Whiteside County IPLAN survey available

SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK contact@shawmedia.com

The Whiteside County Health Department is beginning its Illinois Project for Local Assessment of Need. The community health assessment known as the IPLAN is a mandated planning process that all local health departments in Illinois must conduct every five years.

During the assessment, the health department surveys the community and analyzes the results, along with available data, to help identify the communities’ top health priorities and develop objectives and interventions.

“The IPLAN is an important tool both locally and for the state. Locally, organizations work to address our community priorities as support for interventions and to help access and

give priority to funding. Legislators and IDPH can also use it to help determine funding priorities,” Cory Law, assistant organizational officer for the Whiteside County Health Department, said in a news release. “As part of this assessment, the Whiteside County Health Department needs community involvement to help direct and guide our focus on our needs and determine our objectives and interventions.

“For that, we need your help. If you live in Whiteside County, make your voice and concerns heard by completing the 2025 Whiteside County Human Services Needs Survey. If you do not live in Whiteside, you can still help by sharing the survey and encouraging friends or family who live in Whiteside to complete it.”

Red light therapy may reduce inflammation

Red light therapy was noted by the space industry to help speed up healing from cuts and scrapes. It turns out it has application far and above this consideration.

Red light therapy has different names, including light emitting diode therapy, which is LED.

This type of light can affect the mitochondria or power houses of our cells. This may lead to more energy in the cell.

Accordingly, this may promote faster and more effective healing, along with reducing inflammation and boosting the overall cell function.

and near infrared light. Red light has a shallow penetration. Non-infrared light is more suitable for treating deeper tissues such as muscles and tendons and bones.

Red light therapy has been shown to improve wrinkles and other skin conditions.

Red light therapy also has been shown to help osteoarthritis, especially of the knees. It also has been

helpful for painful menstrual periods. It may help other mood disorders such as depression. Red light therapy also may help muscle and exercise recovery. Hair growth is helped in some people.

Red light therapy also may help to boost the immune system. This would not be the sole therapy for conditions such as COVID-19, but it may assist other therapies.

Red light therapy has been shown to help patients breathe better and reduce other markers of inflammation and even to prevent blood clots.

The number of treatments needed for a condition vary widely and are

best governed by sources directed toward that knowledge.

As an example, skin health may benefit from two to three sessions a week for up to two months or more. Each session might take up to 20 minutes.

Pain relief might benefit from three to five sessions a week.

Professional red light therapy uses higher power devices and is more precise than in-home devices.

However, Medicare and most insurance policies do not cover red light therapy.

Red light therapy for home use may be available in panels or face masks or small devices to cover limited area.

How to Conserve Energy at Home: Tips from Your Trusted Solar Experts

At Stateline Solar, we’re passionate about helping homeowners maximize energy efficiency—whether you have solar panels or are considering making the switch. Reducing energy consumption not only lowers your utility bills, but also enhances the benefits of solar power. Here are some simple yet effective ways to cut energy waste in your home.

Upgrade to Energy-Efficient Appliances

Old appliances can be energy hogs. Switching to ENERGY STAR®-certified refrigerators, washers, and dishwashers can significantly reduce power consumption while maintaining top performance.

Use Smart Thermostats

Heating and cooling account for nearly half of a home’s energy use. A smart thermostat automatically adjusts temperatures when you’re away, optimizing energy use and saving money.

Unplug Unused Electronics

Devices like TVs, computers, and phone chargers draw power even when turned off. Using power strips or unplugging electronics when not in use helps eliminate “phantom” energy waste.

Switch to LED Lighting

Replacing incandescent bulbs with LED lights uses up to 75% less energy and lasts 25 times longer, reducing electricity costs and maintenance.

Improve Home Insulation

Proper insulation in walls, attics, and windows keeps your home comfortable year-round, reducing the need for excessive heating or cooling.

Sealing air leaks also improves efficiency.

Use Energy Wisely

Simple habits like washing clothes in cold water, running dishwashers only when full, and adjusting blinds to control indoor temperatures can make a big impact.

Pair Efficiency with Solar By conserving energy, you’ll get even more value from solar panels, ensuring your system covers a greater portion of your energy needs.

Want to take your energy savings further?

Contact Stateline Solar to explore how solar can power your efficiency goals!
