Prince of Peace school’s Rocket Team participates in National Finals Prince of Peace Catholic School rocketry team, the Redhawk Rocketeers, successfully participated in the 19th annual national finals for The American Rocketry Challenge (TARC). On Saturday, June 12, The Redhawk Rocketeers launched at Bong Recreation Area in Kansasville, WI. They were among the 100 groups of finalists. The student teams worked all year to prepare for the challenges they faced in building and launching a model rocket that carries one raw egg to two altitudes and time goals, with rocket and egg returning to the ground intact. Each team got two flights: the first goal was 775 ft within 39-42 seconds, the second was 825 ft within 41-44 seconds. Scores will be the sum of those two flights, and the team is still waiting to receive their final scores. TARC, the world’s largest student rocket contest, is the Aerospace Industry Association’s flagship program that seeks to encourage middle and high school students to pursue STEM careers. Following a break last year due to the pandemic, the contest returned, offering teams a chance to win prizes ranging from $7,500 to $20,000. Programs like TARC encourage students to hone their passions from a young age. TARC is geared toward students who have an interest in rocketry and STEM, but the skills can be applied to numerous other disciplines, including technical skills like computer simulations and software, as well as teamwork and public speaking. Prince of Peace Catholic School’s
Redhawk Rocketeers was founded by Rebecca Zurek when she was a student at Prince of Peace. Over the years, the team has grown and now includes co-captain and alumnus Luka Weideman, student Brandon Czapla, student Lilly Abney and alumnus Zack Massoni, The club is open to middle school students through high school students. Robert Zurek, an engineer, is Rebecca’s father and the club’s adviser. He teaches the kids to work with software used by professional companies, and “within a year or two they’re computer simulating their own rocket designs, designing parts in the system, creating them on a laser printer and a laser cutter and then building these up, and then adapting their models with their test launches to meet their goals,” Zurek said. The older kids then teach the younger kids, continuing the cycle. Principal Dr. Stephanie Stoneberg added, “We are extremely proud of our Redhawk Rocketeers and all that they’ve learned as a result of this club. Prince of Peace Catholic School places a strong emphasis on STEM, and we are pleased to offer this opportunity to our current and past students.” To find out more about Prince of Peace Catholic School’s Redhawk Rocketeers and other clubs as well as its top-rated education and comprehensive mission of Faith, Excellence and Service, contact Principal Dr. Stephanie Stoneberg at 847-356-6111 or visit http://school.princeofpeacelv.org/. In-person tours (following all safety guidelines) also are available.

the momentum of our work with the inmates because of Covid, we are thrilled to be back and working side by side with this group providing much needed mental and emotional health support.” Dozens of Lake County Jail inmates are currently participating in the ‘Art Impact Project’ program. Their work products for the ‘Making Impact: How Art Enhances Emotional Wellness’ exhibit are currently on display through the month of June in the Lake County Government Building located at 18 North County Street, Waukegan. This is part of Lake County Government’s initiative titled Art in Public Places. The public is welcome to publicly view the art. Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “Educational, inspiring, and innovative programming is essential in for jail inmates. The majority of those incarcerated in our jail will reenter society, and I want to take advantage of their time here to ensure they are provided with as many skills, educational opportunities, and encouragement as possible, so they can successfully contribute to society when they are released. The ‘Art Impact Project’ is one of the many programs which motivates and provides inmates additional options on how they can deal with the daily stresses we all experience.”

Sheriff John D. Idleburg is pleased to have resumed inmate programming in the Lake County Jail. During the pandemic, inmate programming was paused to mitigate the spread of Covid-19 inside the Lake County Jail. Now, under new mitigation protocols, inmate programming has resumed in the jail’s library. One of the programs, the ‘Art Impact Project’ has been greeted with excitement and enthusiasm by the Lake County Jail inmates. Ten inmates at a time attend the weekly programming sessions in the jail’s library. There, they interact with the program facilitators and each other, to problem solve, understand different viewpoints, self-reflect, let go of negative feelings, all while engaging in art. Founded by Vickie Marasco seven years ago, ‘Art Impact Project’ is aimed at those who struggle to express themselves in a healthy way. The facilitators capitalize on offering emotional wellness support through the power of art making and creative expression. Vickie Marasco said, “The success of our art programming comes through in the interaction, trust and open discussion without judgment about how the inmates are coping and working through compounded personal issues.

Woman freed on plea deal after serving 19 years for McHenry murder Her murder charge was vacated with help from Illinois Innocence Project By Sarah Mansur CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
A woman found guilty of a McHenry County murder recently had her conviction vacated after serving 19 years of her 27-year sentence and maintaining her innocence throughout her imprisonment. With the help of the lawyers from the Illinois Innocence Project, Jennifer McMullan was released from prison June 16 as a result of a plea agreement entered in McHenry County court. McHenry County State’s Attorney Patrick Kenneally’s plea deal to grant McMullan’s release and vacate her murder conviction depended on if she agreed to plead guilty to an armed robbery charge in the case. Stephanie Kamel, one of McMullan’s attorneys at IIP, said her client faced an extremely difficult decision of whether to accept a plea to a lesser charge or remain wrongfully imprisoned for
years to come. “Driving her decision was her father, whose health is deteriorating rapidly due to Alzheimer’s disease,” Kamel said in a news release. “While we would like to have seen Jennifer’s conviction vacated with no plea agreement required, we are glad she is finally free and reunited with her family after an almost 20-year absence.” McMullan was one of four people—along with Kenneth Smith, David Collett and Justin Houghtaling—who were arrested for carrying out the attempted robbery and fatal shooting of Raul Briseno at a McHenry restaurant in March 2001. McMullan’s release comes less than two months after a federal appeals court released Smith from prison and vacated his murder conviction, overruling prior Illinois state courts’ decisions in his case. The convictions of McMullan and Smith were based
on Houghtaling’s confession to police days after the murder. Houghtaling, who confessed in exchange for a lesser sentence, later recanted his confession. He initially claimed that he and Smith robbed the restaurant while McMullan and Collett waited in the getaway car. Houghtaling pleaded guilty to murder and was sentenced to 20 years in exchange for testifying against the others. Collett also pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five years. After McMullan and Smith were found guilty at trial, their appeals focused on an alternate group of suspects—known as the DeCicco group—who confessed to the murder on multiple occasions but also later recanted. Smith’s first conviction was overturned on appeal, resulting in a second trial in 2008 where he was found guilty but his conviction at
the second trial was also overturned. He was convicted again at his third trial in 2012 and sentenced to 67 years in prison, but the conviction was yet again tossed out on appeal. The federal appeals court’s decision in April was a result of Smith’s appeal of his third conviction. Attorneys for Smith and McMullan argued that the police overlooked credible confessions from members of the DeCicco group that contained details about the crime that police withheld from the public. Specifically, the police withheld the fact that Briseno suffered a head wound consistent with being hit with a gun, and that Briseno had yelled to a passing car to call the police after he chased the two masked robbers from the restaurant. The federal appeals court’s opinion admonished the Illinois court for being “not just
wrong, but unreasonable,” in upholding Smith’s conviction, despite Houghtaling’s recanted confession that was “riddled with holes” and evidence corroborating the DeCicco group’s confessions. Based on the totality of the evidence presented at Smith’s trial—the DeCicco group’s confessions along with weakness of the other evidence— no rational jury could have found Smith guilty, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit found in its 33-page opinion. “Houghtaling’s inconsistencies take on a special significance in light of the DeCicco evidence—evidence that builds a narrative largely free from the holes that fill Houghtaling’s confession. With such a serious possibility of a third party’s guilt…we are convinced as an objective matter that no rational trier of fact could have found Smith guilty be-
yond a reasonable doubt,” according to the opinion issued April 29. Kenneally said in a statement that he disagrees with the opinion that overrules the decisions of three separate McHenry County juries. “We are increasingly distressed at the recent trend of remote judges, years and decades later, elevating their own judgments of selectively considered evidence and witness credibility over those of ordinary citizens to reach preferred case outcomes,” Kenneally said in the statement. The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals’ decision that no rational jury could convict Smith forecloses the immediate possibility for Kenneally to put Smith on trial for a fourth time. Kenneally said his office is reviewing its legal options and determining whether to appeal the ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court.
LCHD earns ‘LGBTQ Health Care Equility Leader’ designation Lake county Health Department joins 495 health care providers nationwide
Friday, June 25, the Lake County Health Department announced their “LGBTQ Health Care Equality Leader” designation from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRC). The designation was awarded in the 12th edition of HRC’s Healthcare Equality Index (HEI), released today. A record 765 health care facilities actively participated in the HEI 2020 survey. Of those included in the HEI, 495 earned an “LGBTQ health care Equality Leader” designation. “We are truly honored to be recognized as an LGBTQ Health Care Equality Leader. Supporting the health and well-being of all in our community is of the utmost importance,” said Executive Director, Mark Pfister. “It remains a core part of our mission to maintain inclusive care for Lake County’s LGBTQ community. Our healthcare facilities strive to provide quality service where anyone can seek healthcare without the fear of being discriminated against. We will proudly continue to provide support and care to members of the LGBTQ community.” “From the previously un-
imaginable impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to the horrific incidents of racial violence targeting the Black community, the events of the past year have brought about so much pain and uncertainty. Yet, even during this moment of profound unrest, we are seeing more of our humanity and resilience come to life. For me, nowhere is that more true than through the tireless dedication of our health care providers and the intrepid support and administrative staff members by their sides that show up every day to ensure this life-saving work continues,” said HRC President Alphonso David. “The health care facilities participating in the HRC Foundation’s Healthcare Equality Index (HEI) are not only on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic, they are also making it clear from their participation in the HEI that they stand on the side of fairness and are committed to providing inclusive care to their LGBTQ patients. In addition, many have made strong statements on racial justice and equity and are engaging in efforts to address racial inequities in their institutions and their
communities. We commend all of the HEI participants for their commitment to providing inclusive care for all.” Every year, HRC recognizes the health care facilities that participate in the HEI for their dedication and commitment to LGBTQ inclusion. HRC also extends its deepest gratitude to these facilities for their courageous fight against COVID-19 and their commitment to addressing racism and injustice. As the final HEI surveys were submitted in March, health care facilities were kicking into overdrive to meet the challenges of COVID-19. Many faced a lack of equipment, staffing shortages and surging demand. Two months later, as the fight against COVID-19 continued, the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor by police officers thrust America’s structural racism into the spotlight. HEI participants issued strong statements on racial justice and equity, participated in White Coats for Black Lives demonstrations and announced new programs to address racial inequities in their institutions and their communities. In the 2020 report, an im-
pressive 495 facilities earned HRC’s “LGBTQ Health Care Equality Leader” designation, receiving the maximum score in each section and earning an overall score of 100. Another 193 facilities earned the “Top Performer” designation for scoring from 80 to 95 points. With 90% of participating facilities scoring 80 points or more, health care facilities are demonstrating concretely that they are going beyond the basics when it comes to adopting policies and practices in LGBTQ care. The remarkable progress reflected in the 2020 HEI includes: • 92% of participants met the HEI’s training requirements, completing more than 150,000 hours of staff training in LGBTQ patient-centered care. • 99% of HEI participants documented that they include both “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” in their patient non-discrimination policy. • 99% of HEI participants documented that they include both “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” in their employment nondiscrimination policy. • 53% of HEI participants indicated that their facility has a
policy or policies that specifically outline procedures and practices aimed at eliminating bias and insensitivity, and ensuring appropriate, welcoming interactions with transgender patients. After many years of trailing their corporate counterparts in the provision of transgender-inclusive health care benefits for employees, HEI participating healthcare facilities are nearly on par with the HRC Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index (CEI) participants as 80% have at least one health care plan that offered this benefit. The latest CEI noted 85% of participants having such benefits. In addition to active survey participants, the HRC Foundation proactively researched the key policies at over 1,000 non-participating hospitals. Unfortunately, the adoption rate at these researched hospitals stands in stark contrast to
the near-perfect adoption by active participants. Among the researched hospitals in which we were able to find or obtain enumerated patient non-discrimination policies, only 67% have policies that include both “sexual orientation” and “gender identity,” and only 63% were found to have an LGBTQ-inclusive employment non-discrimination policy. The equal visitation policy, at 93%, is the only one that comes close to matching the rate of the participating facilities. The Human Rights Campaign Foundation is the education arm of America’s largest civil rights organization working to achieve equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people. HRC envisions a world where LGBTQ people are embraced as full members of society at home, at work and in every community.

County volunteers work to distribute information on Elder Abuse Awareness Pamphlets provide information to explain scams that are targeting seniors
State’s Attorney’s Office employees volunteered to blanket much of Lake County earlier this month to distribute thousands of pamphlets, designed to explain scams targeting elders, to over 30 senior living facilities and senior centers to honor Elder Abuse Awareness Day. The newly-produced pamphlets provide information on in-person, telephone and online scams targeting seniors, how to avoid them, tips for keeping your home safe, and contact information for senior service agencies and law enforcement. The outreach efforts were led by the State’s Attorney’s Senior Advocacy Committee, which is comprised of several community members including owners of local caregiving agencies, victim-witness advocates, and estate-planning lawyers. Assistant State’s Attorney Kevin Berrill is a co-chair of the longstanding committee, and leads prosecution of these crimes as part of the office’s Cyber Crimes Unit. Berrill works with Co-Chair Mike Steiner, who operates an in-home living assistance company, Right At Home, located in Grayslake. Berrill said one of the most important things seniors can do to avoid scams is to remember an often-cited warning that applies to everyone. “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is,” he said. Phone scams are one of the most often-used tools by criminals to separate victims from their money. Scammers may pretend to be po-
lice officials calling about outstanding tickets or warrants, IRS agents warning you about tax or unemployment issues, or be representatives of major retail outlets that say the store accidentally over-charged them. “A government agency would never call and threaten you or ask for money,” Berrill said. He suggested that all such requests be denied and immediately reported to the police. Seniors are also advised by advocates and law enforcement to never let an unknown caller take control of their computer remotely. Lake County State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart thanked ASA Berrill and the Senior Advocacy Committee on Tuesday. “I am so pleased with this committee’s efforts to educate the public this week. We will vigorously prosecute anyone who takes advantage of our senior citizens. It is important that we continue to expand our office’s cyber capabilities in order to fully protect our senior population from the criminals who prey on them with improving technology,” Rinehart said. “I will be asking for additional funding for this in my first budget later this year.” Senior Advocacy Committee member Tim Rout, a lawyer with Prairie State Legal Services, said he wants to remind seniors to never click links or give information to someone who contacts you, but rather to always call companies directly via a publicly listed phone number before releas-
ing information or clicking links. Berrill also advises senior to “be alert,” because complete strangers are not the only ones who may try to take advantage of you. “There are several profiles of financial crimes we deal with, and one is an elder being taken advantage of by family members or caregivers,” he said. As for physical abuse, Berrill said that can occur both in private homes, as well as health centers and senior living facilities. One way for seniors and their families to help protect their well-being is to only employ licensed care workers, not temporary workers or unaffiliated, unknown parties. Also, interact only with those you know or trust. “I can’t believe how many times I have seen stolen checks taken right out of checkbooks by untrustworthy caregivers who then wrote and deposited them into their own accounts,” Berrill said, adding that law enforcement agencies are able to obtain records from banks that show how checks are cashed and by whom. “It unfairly gives a bad name to the much larger numbers of caregivers who provide great services.” The State’s Attorney’s Office urges residents to contact their municipal law enforcement agency if they believe they are the target or victim of any abuse or scams. Residents in unincorporated Lake County should call the Sheriff’s Office.

A mosquito “pool” (batch of mosquitoes) sampled on June 16, 2021 in Lake Bluff, Illinois has tested positive for West Nile virus. This mosquito pool is the first confirmed indicator of West Nile virus presence in Lake County in 2021. “As we approach the summer season, our time outdoors increases, and so does our exposure to mosquitoes,” said Mark Pfister, Executive Director of the Lake County Health Department and Community Health Center. “Please remember to ‘Fight the Bite’ and protect yourself and your family from mosquitoes that may carry West Nile virus.” Practice the “4 Ds of Defense” to protect yourself and your family from mosquitoes: • Drain: Drain standing water from items around your home, yard, and business. • Defend: When outdoors, use an insect repellent containing DEET, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus, 2-undecanone, or IR3535 and reapply according to label directions. • Dawn and Dusk: Protect yourself all day and night, and wear repellent outdoors during these prime times for mosquito activity. • Dress: Wear long sleeves, pants, and closed toe shoes when outdoors to cover your skin.

Things to keep in mind when planning a fireworks show
The Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) and the Office of the State Fire Marshall (OSFM) are reminding Illinoisans to keep a few regulations and key safety tips top-of-mind heading into the Fourth of July holiday. For individuals, community groups, and organizations sponsoring fireworks displays in Illinois, it’s important to be sure fireworks vendors have the required state licenses and certificates issued by the IDNR and the Office of the State Fire Marshal (OSFM) prior to planned fireworks shows. “As our local cities, towns and villages begin to plan their annual fireworks shows, we want to ensure the safety of viewers and participants and that starts with ensuring vendors hired to display fireworks are licensed appropriately by the state,” said IDNR Director Colleen Callahan. The Illinois Explosives Act requires that anyone who
purchases, possesses, uses, transfers, stores or disposes of explosives, including display fireworks, must have an explosives license and explosives storage certificate issued by the IDNR. Licensing and storage requirements administered by the IDNR do not apply to Consumer Fireworks (classified as 1.4 explosives). The Illinois Explosives Act is administered by the IDNR Office of Mines and Minerals Explosives and Aggregate Division. The division is staffed by trained and experienced blasting specialists located throughout Illinois. In addition to requiring comprehensive licensing, training and examination for individuals, the law requires that unattended display fireworks and explosives must be stored in an explosives magazine, storage facility or container that is inspected and certified by IDNR. IDNR currently has 2,201 individuals licensed for the
use of explosives in Illinois, of which approximately 760 are specifically for the use of display fireworks. There are 746 certified explosives storage magazines in Illinois, which contain nearly 41 million pounds of explosives. Of those storage magazines, 99 are certified specifically for the storage of display fireworks. Anyone possessing, using, transferring or purchasing display fireworks without a valid IDNR individual explosives license or storage certificate is violating Illinois law and could incur penalties. A violation of the Illinois Explosives Act can be a Class 3 felony, with a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. In addition, the IDNR can assess administrative fines for violations involving display fireworks and other explosives. Emergency responders are reminded to contact IDNR and the OSFM immediately
with reports of personal injury or property damage resulting from the use of explosives, including display fireworks. “Numerous communities have canceled shows again this year, which could be temping for individuals to hold their own backyard displays,” said Illinois State Fire Marshal Matt Perez. “Fireworks are dangerous and should only be used by trained individuals. Fireworks not only could injure those shooting them but could also start fires in neighborhoods. Remember, fireworks should only be used by professionals.” Approved Consumer Fireworks are regulated by the OSFM and are permitted only in villages, counties, and municipalities that have passed ordinances allowing such displays. Consumer fireworks may be purchased and displayed only by adults who have obtained permits from their local jurisdiction. Handheld fireworks, including firecrackers, roman candles,
and bottle rockets are not approved for sale or use in Illinois. Healthcare facilities reported 163 persons having been injured by fireworks during the 2020 seasonal reporting period, that is up from the 126 injuries reported in 2019. Approximately half of all injured persons suffered multiple injuries. Of those injured, 120 were male. More than half of all injuries (59 percent) occurred to persons over 22 years of age. Children’s injuries in the 11-16 age group almost doubled (23) from the previous year of 12. OSFM is aware of additional injuries that are not part of the statistics since they were reported outside of the reporting period, and they were not reported to OSFM by a healthcare provider. There were 89 participating healthcare providers who voluntarily provided data to OSFM on fireworks injuries in 2020, compared to
56 in 2019. OSFM encourages healthcare providers to participate in reporting this information. Reports can be submitted in paper format or by visiting: https://www2.illinois.gov/sites/sfm/SFMDocuments/Documents/PyrotechnicHospitalFireworksSurvey. pdf For more information on the IDNR explosives regulatory program, visit https:// www2.illinois.gov/dnr/ mines/EAD/Pages/ExplosivesHandlingStorage.aspx. For more information concerning the OSFM fireworks regulatory program, visit https://www2.illinois.gov/ sites/sfm/Iam/Individual/Pages/Consumer-Fireworks.aspx. To report an explosives incident or accident concerning display fireworks, the public should contact the IDNR Office of Mines and Minerals Explosives and Aggregate Division at 217782-9976 and the OSFM at 217-785-0969.
Sheriff John D. Idleburg is pleased to announce the Lake County Jail passed its most recent inspection and audit conducted by the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC). The detailed inspection of the Lake County Jail took place on May 6, 2021. The IDOC inspection is conducted on an annual basis. During the inspection, IDOC auditors thoroughly inspect more than 330 different categories. Several achievements were recognized of the past year
and documented by the auditors: • Staff and inmates are provided the opportunity to be vaccinated for Covid-19. • Inmate programs have restarted in a limited capacity due to Covid-19. Inmates have been going to programs with other inmates from their own housing units. • The Jail created a Gender Equity Committee which will evaluate the needs of female inmates and staff to meet specific needs that have not been addressed in the past.
• The jail’s program manager has been conducting GED classes via Zoom which allows inmates to continue their educational needs while in custody during the pandemic. • The Jail acquired a new inmate medical provider in December 2020, Wellpath Health Care. Wellpath Health Care completed the last National Commission on Correctional Health Care (NCCHC) audit early 2021. • The Jail will be converting to an upgraded body-worn camera system this year.
• The Jail has completed installation of the new air handlers for the ventilation system, which will improve air circulation. • The Vivitrol program has been expanded to provide ongoing treatment to the inmates. Inmates will be screened upon intake to the jail and will become part of the MAT (Medication Assistance Treatment) program. The treatment will be ongoing while the inmate is in custody and will continue upon their release if desired.
Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “Running the county’s jail is one of the biggest responsibilities we have. When an inmate is remanded by the courts into our custody, we take our responsibility seriously to provide the best care for the inmate’s welfare and well-being, all while ensuring our jail is secure and safe.” In just the first five months of this year, the jail received over 1,800 new inmates and had an average daily population of 525 inmates. Correctional officers have successfully con-
ducted over 4,300 inmate transports to court hearings and other court ordered trips. The jail has served over 235,000 meals to inmates so far this year. “While it was difficult during the pandemic, we continue making it a top priority to capitalize on inmate programming, so we can utilize an inmate’s time here to help them better themselves, so they can be successful when they reenter our community. This reduces recidivism and ultimately saves taxpayer dollars,” added Sheriff Idleburg.
Lake County Jail passes IDOC inspection and audit
Man in vehicle struck by gunfire On June 24, 2021, at approximately 2:30 a.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to the 10100 block of West Waldo Avenue, Beach Park, for a report of shots fired. Sheriff’s deputies arrived and found a 20-yearold man of Beach Park with a gunshot wound to an arm. He was transported to an area hospital via ambulance with non-life-threatening injuries. Preliminary information shows the man was sitting in his vehicle in front of his home when someone approached his vehicle and fired several shots at the vehicle. The person then fled. Nobody, besides the 20-year-old man, was injured or struck by gunfire. Lake County Sheriff’s Detectives responded and continue to investigate. Anyone with information is encouraged to call the Sheriff’s Criminal Investigations Division at 847-377-4000 or Lake County CrimeStoppers at 847-662-2222.
