Professional recording studio ready for performers, student sound engineers sional productions are done. A multitude of speakers and microphones await students who will be guided through this world by professors like Kozien, who also acts as the studio manager. “Students learn the fundamental in their first audio class, DMD 173: Introduction to Digital Sound, and then we move into the more advanced class, which is DMD 275: Audio Recording and Production,” said Kozien. “That’s when we go in and they record and engineer a full band from setup to recording, mixing to mastering. They learn every stage of the process to completion.” It’s an ideal classroom for anyone looking to delve into audio production, but it’s also a true starting point for careers in a field in which having experience is vital. “Students can start working here in the studio almost as an in-house internship recording either for classes or assisting other CLC groups who want to come in and record,” said Kozien. Though the studio is not yet available for public use, Kozien’s long-term hopes include opening it up for local artists to use as an affordable way to capture their craft while also giving students even more real-world experience.

Audio production has always been a part of College of Lake County’s (CLC) Digital A/V Production and Editing A.A.S. degree, but a new space is allowing professors to take the student experience to the next level. In early 2020, a brand-new recording studio quietly opened its doors at the college, only to be closed back up when the pandemic struck. Now with in-person learning on the rise, the digital media and design (DMD) department is preparing to welcome the next generation of audio engineers into the space. “Building this was like building a house from the ground up,” said DMD department co-chair Michael Kozien. “When students visit, it’s a pretty impressive selling point for them to know that we have this recording studio.” The studio re-launch comes as the department adds five additional certificate offerings: graphic design, 2D animation, 3D animation, web design and A/V production which will see students spend time in the new space. While musicians and other performers will occupy the primary recording room, the real A/V magic happens in the attached sound engineering room. It is here students will interact with the latest in digital audio workstations, mixing and mastering recording tracks in the same manner as profes-

GOP leaders sue over new district maps Case alleges use of ACS data unconstitutional
By Peter Hancock CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
Republican leaders in the Illinois House and Senate filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday challenging the constitutionality of the new legislative district maps that Gov. JB Pritzker signed into law June 4. Senate Minority Leader Dan McConchie, of Hawthorn Woods, and House Minority Leader Jim Durkin, of Western Springs, filed the suit in U.S. District Court in Chicago, arguing that the maps are based on survey data rather than official U.S. Census numbers and therefore violate the U.S. Constitution’s “one person, one vote” requirement. “Today’s filing should come as no surprise to Illinoisans,” Durkin said in a news release. “The partisan process upon which the legislative maps were drawn flies in the face of strong recommendations made by countless advocacy groups and citizens who testified at the redistricting hearings.” Durkin was referring to groups who urged lawmakers
to wait for the release of official data from the 2020 census, which is due for release in mid-August. That, however, would have pushed lawmakers beyond the Illinois Constitution’s deadline of June 30 for the General Assembly to adopt maps before the process is turned over to a bipartisan commission. So instead, House and Senate Democrats based the new maps on population estimates derived from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, which Republicans and a number of voting rights advocacy groups, including the League of Women Voters of Illinois and Illinois Common Cause, argued is not accurate enough to be used for redistricting. Democratic leaders also said they used data from previous elections to determine the partisan tilt of each district. Throughout the process, Republicans pushed unsuccessfully for the appointment of an independent redistricting commission that would have been fashioned
along the lines of one that was proposed in a 2016 constitutional amendment, but which the Illinois Supreme Court removed from the ballot that year under a legal technicality. “Today we are entering court on behalf of the thousands of families, small business owners, workers, and taxpayers who said they wanted an independently drawn map, not the one handed down by political insiders desperately clinging to power,” McConchie said in the news release. “We believe this is our best option to advocate for the 75 percent of voters who were refused an independent process and a map created with accurate data.” During the spring legislative session, House and Senate redistricting committees held a series of more than 50 public hearings focusing on different areas of the state. Most of those hearings, however, were either virtual meetings or hybrid meetings with in-person and virtual participation. The House and Senate ap-
proved new maps on Friday, May 26, less than 24 hours after the final drafts had been introduced. Pritzker signed them into law a week later, on June 4. The lawsuit alleges that the maps violate the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which federal courts have frequently cited as the basis for requiring state legislative districts to be drawn so they are substantially equal in population. That has generally meant that districts cannot vary in population by more than 10 percent between the largest and smallest districts, but variations of less than 10 percent have also been found unconstitutional if the lines are drawn in an arbitrary or discriminatory manner. McConchie and Durkin argue in their lawsuit that the use of survey data to craft the new maps resulted in districts that are both arbitrary in how they were drawn and discriminatory because the surveys that were used tend to undercount certain subgroups of the population.
They are asking the court to declare that the new maps violate the U.S. Constitution and for an injunction to prevent state officials from implementing the new maps. In addition, they are asking that if valid maps are not adopted before the Illinois Constitution’s June 30 deadline, that the court either order the appointment of a bipartisan commission, as provided for in the Illinois Constitution, or appoint a special master to oversee the drafting of valid maps based on official 2020 census data. The suit names House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch, of Hillside, Senate President Don Harmon, of Oak Park, and the Illinois State Board of Elections, along with its individual members, as defendants. Sens. Omar Aquino, D-Chicago, who is chair of the Senate Redistricting Committee, and Elgie Sims, D-Chicago, who is vice chair of the Senate Redistricting Committee, issued a joint written statement June 9 stating they “stand by” their maps.
“It is disappointing but not surprising Republicans would seek to strike down these new maps, which reflect the great racial and geographic diversity of our state. Throughout this process, they have done nothing but delay and obstruct efforts to ensure our communities are fairly represented, as seen by their refusal to even draft their own proposals,” the statement reads. Rep. Elizabeth Hernandez, D-Cicero, who chairs the House Redistricting Committee, also issued a statement accusing Republicans of trying to block the new maps for their own political gain. “Republicans in the House have done nothing but attempt to obstruct this citizen-driven process,” she said. “They’ve staged charades for the media while spending well over $500,000 of taxpayer money out of their redistricting budget, but couldn’t even bother to submit their own proposals to be considered.” As of June 9, the case had not yet been assigned to a federal judge.

first-time unemployment claims. But as economic restrictions were gradually relaxed over the summer, the jobless rate began to subside, falling to 7.5 percent in October and, most recently, 7.1 percent in April. Asked during his interview with CNI whether, in retrospect, he wished he would have handled things differently, Pritzker said he had to work with the information he had at the time. “I can tell you that if I knew then what I know now, I’m sure I might have made some different decisions,” he said. “But that just wasn’t something available to me. What we had was a novel coronavirus.” Pritzker added that just a few days before he issued the stay-at-home order he received projections—a copy of which he said remains on his desk—that said if the state took no action, Chica-

Foundation grant to pay for this project,” said Kyle. “When our Operations and Public Safety Facility in Lindenhurst was completed in 2009, a key factor behind the building’s design was energy efficiency,” Kovach said. An energy analysis from 2010 showed that the lighting savings was 24% better than industry standards required due to efficiency of the fixtures selected and daylighting enhancements. Occupancy sensors were also installed throughout the facility which resulted in increased energy savings. The performance measure of the building envelope was 10% better than the standards required because of thermal energy-saving materials used for walls, floors and roof. The windows have a low U-value as a result of improved insulation measures. “Focusing on these net-zero building goals is important for the future of the Lake County Forest Preserves and the community in which we serve,” Kovach said. “We are running out of time to preserve a habitable planet for our children and grandchildren. Now is the perfect time for us to engage in these clean energy projects.”

Featured components and building materials chosen to meet net-zero energy building requirements include: • An array of rooftop solar panels • HVAC systems and mechanical equipment with the highest efficiency ratings • Increased insulation values in the walls and roof • High-performing windows and strategic placement to help regulate temperature • LED lighting throughout buildings and parking lots • Occupancy sensors in rooms and daylight sensors in perimeter spaces • EPA Indoor Air Plus requirements for paint and materials Other Efficient Buildings Completed in 2006, the Ryerson Welcome Center is Platinum LEED Certified, the highest level granted by the U.S Green Building Council.

To do this, we must commit to achieving net-zero carbon emissions and investing in clean energy infrastructure.” At the Ryerson Conservation Area in Riverwoods, planners at the Lake County Forest Preserves are currently working with design architects to replace aging classroom cabins with a new net-zero environmental education center. A similar style of building for grounds maintenance at Lakewood Forest Preserve in Wauconda is in the design phase. “We want to raise the bar and set the example when it comes to green buildings and environmental sustainability. Our goal is that these new and retrofitted buildings will become viable models of long-lasting energy-efficient design.

As stewards of healthy landscapes and proponents of climate resiliency, officials at the Lake County Forest Preserves altered their Capital Improvement Plan to prioritize and accelerate current net-zero building goals and lead the way for others. “It’s only natural as guardians of Lake County’s open space that our Board of Commissioners and staff find ways to implement these goals. We should attempt to apply for grants and invest funds in net-zero buildings and the technologies that support them,” said Angelo Kyle, president of the Lake County Forest Preserves. “It’s critical to our brand and mission, and upholds who we are and what we do,” he said. A net-zero building, also referred to as a zero-energy building, produces enough renewable energy to meet its own annual energy consumption requirements, reducing the use of nonrenewable energy. These buildings use cost-effective measures to reduce energy usage. “There are several advantages in moving toward zero-energy buildings, including lower environmental impacts, reduced operating and maintenance costs, better resiliency to power outages and natural disasters, and improved energy security,” said Julie Simpson, Board member and Finance Committee chair. “We want

We had to be decisive about it,” he said. “I needed to be transparent and communicate at 188 press conferences during the year 2020. And it was my job to not only give people the facts, but do that in the face of the president in Washington, D.C., who was lying to people about this. And I think people needed to hear from somebody, somebody that they would be willing to listen to, that they trust.” “And people did the right thing,” he added. “I mean, this is the amazing thing about Illinois, that we put the mitigations in place, and then people actually followed them and did the right thing, the result of which is many, many lives were saved.”

In the following days Pritzker issued an order closing bars and restaurants to on-premises service and, on March 20, a general stay-at-home order that effectively shut down major parts of the state’s economy.

As of late in the day June 9, 764 people in Illinois were reported to be hospitalized with COVID-19. Of those, 209 patients were in intensive care units, and 103 of those patients were on ventilators. That was the lowest number of hospital beds in use since the state began reporting the numbers as well. During an interview with Capitol News Illinois last week, Pritzker said that even though the state was ready to enter the final reopening phase, he was not yet prepared to lift the disaster proclamation he first issued on March 9, 2020, which has served as the legal basis behind scores of executive orders such as a ban on residential evictions and utility shutoffs.

Illinois began Phase 5 of the COVID-19 reopening plan June 11, meaning businesses and organizations can resume normal activity, although some limited restrictions will remain in place. Under Phase 5 guidelines, capacity limits are being lifted for both indoor and outdoor activities while people who have been fully vaccinated are no longer required to wear face coverings in most settings and businesses are no longer required to enforce mask mandates or maintain social distancing rules, although they may continue to do so if they choose. People who have not been fully vaccinated are still encouraged to wear face coverings, and all people are still required to wear face coverings while traveling on public transportation,
in congregate settings, in health care settings as well as in schools, day cares and educational institutions. Those changes come 15 months after Gov. JB Pritzker first issued a disaster declaration in response to the pandemic which, as of June 10, had infected nearly 1.4 million people in Illinois and claimed 23,014 lives. Due to the wide availability of vaccines, which first became publicly available in January, new infections and hospitalization rates have reached their lowest points since the pandemic began. The Illinois Department of Public Health reported June 10 that 68 percent of Illinois adults had received at least one dose of vaccine and 51 percent were fully vaccinated.

county-wide program,” said Klees. “One obstacle potential partner organizations and municipalities have is a lack of data. There is not a lot of data specific for our specific area.” After the common riding season wraps up in late fall 2021, the program will produce a first glimpse into how and how often the bikes were used. Both Bassi and Klees expect to see a variety of trips taken by CLC students, staff and the Grayslake community. “The bike share is not limited to students or employees of CLC, it is for everyone in the community,” said Bassi. “People are welcomed and encouraged to take a bike and explore the forest preserve, our campus and the living lab trail, downtown Grayslake and neighboring amenities. Metra riders can jump on a bike at the station, get to CLC, then get themselves back to the train really nicely. Unlike driving a gaspowered vehicle, riding a bike creates zero CO2 emissions, is great exercise and gets people closer to nature; all vital pieces of sustainable living.” “If someone is dropping their child off to practice at Central Park, instead of sitting in their car for an hour or watching the practice, they can hop on a bike, take a couple laps around the trails,” said Klees. “Maybe ride the bike into town, pick-up coffee, go back and pickup their child. If our community bike share takes off and potential partners are happy with the data, I imagine you are going to see a lot of other municipalities and organizations sign-up in the coming years.”

Nearly 100% of Lake County deputies have completed Crisis Intervention Certification program Sheriff John D. Idleburg is pleased to announce the milestone of 99% of our Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies successfully completing the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) certification training program. This is a significant increase from the 34% of sheriff’s deputies trained when Sheriff Idleburg was sworn-in as sheriff. Those trained as (CIT) deputies during the week-long certification program received specialized training to help them evaluate various mental health crisis incidents stemming from a variety of mental health
conditions including: excited delirium, schizophrenia, substance abuse related disorders, autism spectrum disorder, traumatic brain injury, and PTSD. After conducting an initial assessment, sheriff’s deputies then utilize skills they learned to effectively communicate and use deescalation techniques with those experiencing a crisis. Those who successfully complete the week-long training course receive a CIT certification and a deep understanding of the law-enforcement response to those in mental crisis. The
overall design of the program is based on relationship building and problem-solving capabilities of first responders, mental health professionals, and the community. Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies have utilized their CIT skills numerous times to properly interact with those in mental health crisis and provide the assistance needed, versus the use of force. Sheriff Idleburg said, “History has taught us that well-trained police officers who listen to and work closely with the community build both trust and credibility. Upon taking office, it was clear
we needed to do everything we could to ensure those who interact with the community have top-level training when it comes to mental health. Our Training Division has done a tremendous job getting our staff CIT certified and trained in de-escalation.” The Lake County Sheriff’s Office continues to train all employees who interact with the public in CIT. This includes correctional officers, telecommunicators, court security officers, and civilian staff. The sheriff’s office has hosted hundreds of police officers from
municipal agencies throughout Lake County in the CIT certification courses. “CIT certification for lawenforcement is a major priority and we are already looking to the future to see what other innovative and dynamic programs we can implement. My staff is currently researching the feasibility of transitioning our Crisis Outreach and Support Team to a proactive co-responder model. I anticipate being able to release additional information on this program in the weeks to come.” added Sheriff Idleburg.

State’s Attorney files notice to seek life sentence in double homicide A Waukegan man pleaded not guilty Tuesday to multiple counts of first-degree murder, and was told that the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office has given notice that it will seek life in prison if he is convicted for his alleged role in a Beach Park double homicide. Timothy D. Triplett’s public defender, Jillian Kassel, entered not guilty pleas to six counts of first-degree murder, and also told the court Triplett has decided to represent himself in the murder case, after attempts to hire a private attorney apparently failed due to lack of funds. Triplett had already plead-
ed guilty to two counts of murder, but was arraigned again on six counts Tuesday under a “superseding indictment.” The state Timothy must provide Triplett official notice to a defendant when it is seeking natural life. Lake County Circuit Judge Mark Levitt told Triplett that the state has now fulfilled that notice requirement. “The state is giving you notice. If convicted, it will be seeking natural life in prison,” Levitt said.
MCSO announces Memorial holiday ‘Click it or Ticket’ results The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office joined other state and local law enforcement agencies across Illinois to reduce highway fatalities by cracking down on unbuckled motorists and impaired drivers during the Memorial Day holiday.

Prosecuting the case are assistant state’s attorneys Lauren Callinan and Lauren Walker. against The charges Triplett include murder encompassing two victims, and allege that he personally discharged a firearm during the murders. The case involves a double homicide in which a Beach Park married couple, Carlos Rodas Perez and Mercedes Rodas, were shot to death in their West Wadsworth Road garage on Dec. 8, 2020. In a virtual court session held Tuesday morning on Zoom, Levitt asked Triplett about his search for a private attorney. When Triplett re-
sponded money was an issue, Levitt said Triplett is currently being represented by an “outstanding” attorney in Kassel, and that the case would not be held up over representation. The pro se request came up publicly after Triplett had been taken from the jail’s virtual court area and refused to return from jail following a break in the hearing. Kassel told Levitt that Triplett said he now wants to represent himself in court. Levitt responded that “it’s his absolute right” to represent himself, and it would be discussed at Triplett’s next appearance, which has been scheduled for Aug. 10.
Triplett is being held in jail on $5 million bail, as is a co-defendant, Derenell Hill, 35, of Waukegan, who is also charged with first-degree murder in the case. According to the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, on the night of Dec. 8, deputies were dispatched to a residence on the 1000 block of West Wadsworth Road for a “person down.” When the officers arrived, they found Perez, 52, and Rodas, 49, in the garage with gunshot wounds. Life-saving efforts by the deputies at the scene were unsuccessful, and both were pronounced dead at the scene.
During an ongoing investigation, Triplett was arrested in January and charged with two counts of first-degree murder. Hill was arrested March 4 for driving on a revoked license. As part of the homicide investigation, a search warrant was executed at an apartment where Hill had recently been staying and detectives found a firearm that belonged to Carlos Rodas Perez. Facts of the investigation were presented to the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office and Hill was charged with two counts of first-degree murder. His next court appearance is scheduled Aug. 11.

Homicide defendant indicted on new armed robbery charges
Lake County Sheriff’s Detectives concluded an armed robbery investigation which resulted in the arrest of the offender. The offender, Derenell D. Hill, 35, of the 1700 block of Runyard Place, Waukegan, who is currently being held on homicide charges in the December of 2020 slayings of Beach Park residents Carlos Rodas Perez and Mercedes Rodas, was positively identified as the armed robbery offender. On December 24, 2020, at approximately 8:10 a.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to an armed robbery at a business in the 38900 block of North Green Bay Road, Beach Park. The offender (later identified as Derenell D. Hill) entered the store armed with a firearm. He pointed the firearm at a patron and the store’s manager, demanding money. Hill touched different items in the store before fleeing with cash from the cash registers and cash from the patron in the store. Sheriff’s evidence technicians processed the scene of the armed robbery and collected samples from the areas Hill touched. Following Hill’s arrest on the homicide charges, sheriff’s detective developed enough probable cause to show Hill was the offender in the armed robbery. A Lake County Judge authorized a search warrant for Hill’s DNA, which was subsequently collected by sheriff’s detectives. A crime laboratory analysis of the samples collected at the scene of the armed robbery were a match to Hill’s DNA. After reviewing the facts and evidence, the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office presented additional charges to the Grand Jury on June 9, 2021, for their consideration. The Lake County Grand Jury indicted Hill on the following charges: Armed Habitual Criminal, Armed Robbery, and Unlawful Possession of a Weapon by a Felon. Hill remains held in the Lake County Jail on $5,000,000 bail. He was next due in court on June 16.
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office thanks the Kenosha Police Department, Gurnee Police Department, and Waukegan Police Department for their assistance during the armed robbery investigation.
Lake County Corrections Officers save life of an inmate
Three Lake County Correctional Officers recently saved the life of an inmate assigned to periodic imprisonment. On the evening of June 2, 2021, Correctional Officers David Juarez and Daniel Pennington were conducting rounds in the Community Based Correctional Center. While conducting rounds, they discovered a 23-year-old male inmate on the floor in the shower. The inmate was unresponsive and had very shallow breathing. After assessing the inmate, they believed he was suffering from some type of drug overdose. Officers Juarez and Pennington immediately called for Naloxone to be brought to their location. Correctional Officer Mark Gaines responded with Naloxone and provided the inmate a nasal dose. After receiving the Naloxone, the inmate regained consciousness. He was transported to an area hospital for a medical evaluation. Further investigation revealed the inmate ingested opioids just prior to returning to the Community Based Correctional Center, after work. When he returned, he entered the shower where he began suffering overdose symptoms and collapsed. Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “It is always a top priority to treat those in our custody with dignity and respect. The quick life-saving actions by Correctional Officers Juarez, Pennington, and Gaines perfectly highlight this philosophy and I am extremely proud of them for saving the life of an inmate.” The Community Based Correctional Center is a section of the jail utilized to house inmates assigned to periodic imprisonment, often referred to as ‘work release.’ This is an area where inmates have been sentenced, but under the conditions of their sentence they are allowed to leave for work, job appointments, medical appointments, and other qualifying events. Inmates must return to the Community Based Correctional Center upon the conclusion of work or their appointment.
