Sheriff John D. Idleburg is proud to announce the Lake County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit has resumed patrolling Lake Michigan waters located in Lake County.
Lake County contains over 900 square miles of Lake Michigan water. Since 2018, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office has been unable to patrol these waters due to an outdated watercraft being retired because of multiple mechanical and safety issues. Earlier this year, the Lake County Board approved the replacement of the watercraft retired in 2018.
This spring, the sheriff’s office received
delivery of a new Fluid Watercraft Inflatable Patrol Boat. The boat has two 225 horsepower engines and can carry 14 passengers.
Sheriff Idleburg commissioned the new watercraft, and it has been operational by Marine Unit Deputies since the onset of this year’s boating season. The Marine Unit is conducting patrols of Lake Michigan and will be capable of responding to emergencies within Lake County’s nautical boundaries.
Through an ongoing partnership with the United States Coast Guard and the
Sheriff’s marine patrols resume on Lake Michigan
Illinois Department of Natural Resources Conservation Police, the sheriff’s office will coordinate patrols with both agencies. Members of the Coast Guard and/or Conservation Police will have the ability to respond with the Sheriff’s Marine Unit to emergencies on the new watercraft.
The new watercraft will be operated by sheriff’s personnel who possess a Coast Guard Captain’s License.
The new boat is named in memory of fallen Lake County Sheriff’s Deputy Gary D. Murphy, who was killed in the line of duty in June of 1976. When not in use,
the watercraft is stored in a secure dock at North Point Marina in Winthrop Harbor, thanks to a generous in-kind contribution. Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “Adding a sheriff’s office watercraft on Lake Michigan is very significant. Response time in an emergency is crucial, and having a sheriff’s boat available will increase the likelihood of lives saved during search and rescue missions. We are grateful for our partnership with North Point Marina and thankful for their assistance in allowing us space to dock our boat.”

Groundbreaking ceremony kicks off modification to 100-year-old dam
The Lake County Stormwater Management Commission (SMC), Fremont Township Highway Department and Lake County Board gathered on June 18 to celebrate the start of construction on the 100-year-old Sylvan Lake Dam in unincorporated Mundelein.
The Sylvan Lake Dam, which was built in 1924, has exceeded its useful life. The aging dam currently does not provide the necessary level of protection from a sudden release of water, which could damage local properties and roads and significantly impact the environment.
As part of the project, the Sylvan Lake Dam will be reconstructed to protect nearly 300 nearby homes
and Sylvan Lake. Work includes relocating the above-ground sanitary sewer pipe, increasing the dam’s flood storage and installing a sidewalk.
Rainfall, storms and the natural environment significantly impacted the Sylvan Lake Dam over the past century. The dam had an exposed sewage pipe that was at risk of being damaged by high-velocity drainage and overflow from the dam’s spillway when water is released downstream.
“A dam failure would be harmful to the health and safety of many families in addition to causing unnecessary disruption to some of our local roadways. I am so grateful that Lake County SMC, the Fremont
Township Highway Department, and all our other partners were able to move this important project forward,” said Jessica Vealitzek, Lake County Board Member District 10.
The Sylvan Lake Dam project received Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) PreDisaster Mitigation grant funding through the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) as part of the 2022 Congressionally Directed Spending championed by Representative Lauren Underwood’s office. Funding for this project comes from Fremont Township Highway Department, FEMA and the Sylvan Lake Improvement Association.
Nineteenth Judicial Circuit names two Associate Judges
Chief Judge Daniel B. Shanes is pleased to announce that Gabriel J. Conroe of Highland Park and Matthew J. DeMartini of Antioch received the majority of votes from the Circuit Judges of the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit and will be installed as Associate Judges. These positions were available due to the upcoming retirements of the Honorable Raymond D. Collins and the Honorable Charles D. Johnson, who will be stepping down from the bench on July 12, 2024, after nearly 20 years of dedicated service to the residents of Lake County.
“Mr. Conroe and Mr. DeMartini will be excellent additions to the Nineteenth Judicial Circuit. They will bring considerable skill and understanding to their new roles with extensive experience, an abundant sense of fairness, and a commitment to justice. I congratulate them on their appointments and look forward to Mr. Conroe and Mr. DeMartini joining us as Associate Judges in Lake County,” said Chief Judge Shanes.
Mr. Conroe received his Bachelor of Arts in Behavioral Science and Law from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2001. In 2006, he earned his Juris Doctor from Chicago Kent College of Law. He was admitted to practice law in Illinois in 2006 and is a member of the Illinois Public Defender Association
and the Lake County Bar Association. Mr. Conroe has been with the Lake County Public Defender’s Office since 2006 and serves as a Principal Assistant Public Defender.
“I am honored and humbled to receive this appointment. I want to express my gratitude to the many mentors who have helped prepare me as a public servant,” said Mr. Conroe.
Mr. DeMartini received his Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from Marquette University in 1999. In 2002, he earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Illinois Chicago John Marshall Law School. He was admitted to practice law in Illinois in 2002 and is a member of the Illinois State Bar Association, the Justinian Society, and the Lake County Bar Association. Mr. DeMartini previously served as an Assistant State’s Attorney with the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office, an associate at the Law Office of Rudolph F. Magna of Gurnee, an associate at the Law Office of Scott Gartner of Antioch, and is currently the owner of DeMartini Legal, Inc. of Antioch.
“I am humbled by and thankful for this appointment and excited to take on the challenges it brings,” said Mr. DeMartini.
Chief Judge Shanes will administer the oaths of office to Mr. Conroe and Mr. DeMartini.
ATSDR releases findings on ethylene oxide emissions in Lake County
Ethylene oxide (EtO) has been of great concern to the residents of Lake County since November of 2018, when we became aware that there are two facilities in the county emitting the carcinogenic gas. That concern
prompted the Lake County Health Department (LCHD) to initially request that either the U.S. or the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) conduct air testing as a first step in determining the air concentrations,
and ultimately, the risk they posed.
As it became clear that EPA would not do the air testing, LCHD partnered with the Village of Gurnee and the City of Waukegan to fund and conduct air test-
ing, which began in June of 2019. Later funding from the Illinois EPA facilitated further testing, which extended in three phases into May of 2020.
The goal from the start was to gather essential air concentration data to provide to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Diseases Registry (ATSDR), which is a part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), so that they could
develop a health risk consultation for the residents of the county. That request was made in March of 2019, before the air testing program even began.
Last week, the ATSDR released their findings. On June 26, 2024, scientists from the ATSDR presented their findings to the residents of Lake County at a public information session in Waukegan.
“We want to thank the
ATSDR for producing this important health consultation, and for presenting the information to the public,” said Mark Pfister, Executive Director of the LCHD.
“The report states that with very long-term exposure there may be a slight increased risk for developing cancer for people who live very near the facilities, but it also demonstrates how much emissions have been greatly reduced due to quick passage and implementation of effective legislation in Illinois, and the imposition of strict permit requirements.”
In the report, the ATSDR recommends that the Illinois EPA and the two facilities investigate potential sources of EtO emissions, and that additional air testing be conducted around Vantage Specialty Chemicals. The report also recommends that the U.S. EPA continues to work on improving EtO testing methods, and on better understanding background levels of EtO to more accurately estimate exposures.
“Nothing is more important than the health of our residents. We fully support these recommendations, and trust that if implemented, they will further reduce these toxic emissions,” said Lake County Board Chair Sandy Hart.
The ATSDR health consultation is open for public comment until Aug. 5, after which it will be finalized.

Lake County has been chosen as one of the five regions in Illinois to pilot a Domestic Violence Fatality Review Team that will work to prevent future domestic violence related fatalities and reduce the severity and frequency of domestic violence. Pictured here from left are: Damaris Lorta, State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart and Lauren Callinan who are part of the team of many professionals from the community involved in this partnership.
State’s Attorney’s Office announces new program to counter domestic violence
The Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office recently announced that it has been selected by a statewide committee to pilot a regional “Domestic Violence Fatality Review (DVFR) Team.” The team will work to prevent future domestic-violence related fatalities and to reduce the severity and frequency of domestic violence. Five regions throughout Illinois will each have one team as a pilot program.
The Lake County Domestic Violence Fatality Review Team consists of Lake County State’s Attorney First Assistant Lauren Callinan and Executive Director of A Safe Place, Pat Davenport, as the co-chairs. Chenel Vanden Berk, a Forensic Nursing Specialist at the International Association of Forensic Nurses serves as the secretary for the team.
“The DVFR will save lives by pressing deeper into the problem of domestic violence that has plagued Illinois for centuries. Innovative and urgent approaches are the way forward to ending domestic violence, and I am so proud that our county was awarded this pilot,” said State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart.
Ms. Davenport stated “Thank you to the State’s Attorney’s Office for partnering and agreeing to lead the State of Illinois in developing a Regional Fatality Review committee. I believe that the process of fatality review will help us learn a great deal about improving our systems.”
The Lake County DVFR Team includes 30 professionals from the community that have agreed to be part of this partnership. This group includes prosecutors, defense attorneys, judges, probations officers, the Coroner’s Office, members of law enforcement, social service providers, offender treatment providers, a Guardian Ad Litem, DCFS personnel, nurses, substance abuse and behavioral counselors, and legal aid attorneys.
The Illinois Domestic Violence Fatality
Review Act was signed into law in 2021. Under this legislation, a Statewide Committee is responsible for overseeing the formation of regional domestic violence review teams across Illinois and providing technical assistance and support. The Statewide Committee will gather policy and system recommendations from each regional review team and make recommendations. The Committee will serve as a statewide resource for addressing domestic violencerelated fatalities and near-fatalities.
First Assistant, Lauren Callinan, shared that she is honored to co-chair such an important group. “Legislation like this, and support from so many different disciplines in our community, are important pieces in the work of eradicating domestic violence and domestic related fatalities.”
The Lake County review team has already attended trainings offered by the Statewide Committee and held its first official meeting, where the Board was elected on June 23.
The other four Fatality Review Teams have been established in Will County, Madison and Bond County, Rockford County, and Kankakee County.
The Lake County State’s Attorney’s office has worked closely with A Safe Place since 1978 when the non-profit organization was founded to serve survivors of domestic violence. In 2022, A Safe Place and the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office were also awarded a joint grant to reduce Human Trafficking in Lake County. In 2024, State’s Attorney Rinehart was selected to serve on A Safe Place’s Honorary Board of Directors.
Since December 2020, the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office has increased the number of domestic violence prosecutors, total number of victim-support professionals, and Spanish-speaking victim specialists to improve the quality of service in all communities.
Advocates say SCOTUS ruling paves way for law ensuring abusers have guns confiscated
By Hannah Meisel Capitol News illiNois
Urge passage of ‘Karina’s Bill’ when lawmakers return in fall sooner—all within a framework that justices have now overwhelmingly endorsed,” she said.
After the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a federal law that bars those under domestic violence-related restraining orders from owning guns, victim advocates say Illinois lawmakers should pass a measure to ensure firearms are actually confiscated in those situations.
The legislation has been stalled for more than a year, despite efforts this spring and last fall to resurrect it after the high-profile murder of Chicago resident Karina Gonzalez. She and her 15-year-old daughter Daniela were allegedly shot to death by her estranged husband less than two weeks after a judge issued an order of protection against him. Jose Alvarez remains in Cook County Jail.
But after the high court ruling, advocates say there is nothing else standing in the way of lawmakers taking up the bill, which last summer was rebranded “Karina’s Bill” after Gonzalez’s murder. The bill would clarify existing state law and require law enforcement to take guns from those subject to certain domestic violence orders of protection.
Amanda Pyron, executive director of Chicago-based domestic violence advocacy organization The Network, said it “hit a lot of us really hard” that the Supreme Court decision was published on the one-year anniversary of Gonzalez’s order of protection against her husband.
“I think it says a lot about our state that it took this long and we hope it will say something different about our state if we get it passed in (the General Assembly’s fall) veto session,” Pyron said of lawmaker inaction on Karina’s bill during a call with reporters on Monday.
State Rep. Maura Hirschauer, D-Batavia, a chief sponsor of Karina’s Bill, said in a statement June 21 that while the high court’s ruling is “a great relief for survivors of gender-based violence,” the decision “merely preserve(s) the status quo.”
“Here in Illinois, we should move forward by enacting Karina’s Bill, which will provide clear guidance for getting guns out of the hands of abusers, and ensure those weapons are removed
Hirschauer pushed an earlier, broader version of the bill through the Illinois House in May 2023, but it failed to advance in the Senate. Gonzalez and her daughter were killed two months later.
Under existing state law, when petitioning a court for a domestic violence order of protection, a victim can ask for 18 specific “remedies,” including the confiscation of the alleged abuser’s firearms. But state law is less than clear on how firearms should be surrendered—or forcibly taken by law enforcement if need be.
Karina’s Bill would clarify that firearms must be surrendered or confiscated within four days of a victim being granted a domestic violence order of protection against their abuser—a change from an earlier version of the bill that stipulated a 48-hour timeline. It would also explicitly allow a judge to issue a search warrant for those weapons when law enforcement goes to serve the order of protection.
Although advocates had been waiting for the Supreme Court decision, they say lawmakers could have taken up Karina’s Bill this spring during the General Assembly’s regular legislative session.
But the pending high court case wasn’t the only barrier; law enforcement groups like the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police have expressed concerns about smaller, more rural police departments’ abilities to follow the law’s directive to confiscate weapons within four days of an order of protection being issued.
Even Gov. JB Pritzker, while generally supportive of the bill, pointed out last
month that law enforcement officers could be going into volatile situations when serving a search warrant for firearms.
“In the instance where you’ve got to go confiscate the firearm, literally you have to bring sometimes four officers to one situation in order to remove the weapon,” he said. “And if somebody doesn’t want to give it to you, it becomes quite complicated and maybe dangerous.”
The latest version of the legislation would allow federally licensed gun dealers to store any guns seized or surrendered by someone under a domestic violence order of protection with the firearm remedy—a change made after smaller police departments said they wouldn’t be able to store all of those guns themselves.
Pyron and other advocates said the bill has been tweaked and is ready for lawmakers to take it up again when they return to Springfield in November. She also warned that the General Assembly’s consideration of Karina’s Bill is made even more urgent by a recent “upward trend” in domestic violence-related gun homicides in Illinois.
According to The Network’s analysis of statistics compiled by the Gun Violence Archive, Illinois saw a near-doubling of domestic violence shooting deaths from 2020 to 2023. Four years ago, 37 such victims died of gunshot wounds, compared with 70 last year. Pyron said that as of April 30, 34 people had died in domestic violence-related shootings in 2024—a 55 percent increase from the previous year. The number of domestic violence victims injured, but not killed, in shootings is also increasing, she said. The Network’s latest annual report containing 2023 data has not yet been published.
ANTIOCH’S TASTE OF SUMMER
JULY
Man arrested for possessing child pornography
Lake County Sheriff’s Detectives arrested a Zion man for possessing dozens of videos and images of child pornography.
Christopher J. Abernathy
Sheriff’s detectives conducted an investigation after learning images and videos containing child pornography were being downloaded at a residence in the 2300 block of Joppa Avenue, Zion. Sheriff’s detectives determined an individual was also saving the harmful videos and images to a cloud storage account.
After obtaining enough information, sheriff’s detectives applied for and obtained a search warrant for the home.
On July 2, 2024, sheriff’s detectives and members of the Illinois Attorney General’s Cybercrime Unit conducted a search warrant at the residence. Sheriff’s detectives determined Christopher J. Abernathy, 37, of the residence, was responsible for downloading and saving the child pornography images and videos.
Digital Forensic Examiners with the Illinois Attorney General’s Office conducted an analysis on Abernathy’s electronic devices, which revealed dozens of videos with children as young as infants being sexually assaulted.
After reviewing the facts and circumstances of the case, the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office approved three counts of possession of child pornography (class 2 felonies). Additional charges are possible.
Abernathy was held in the Lake County Jail pending First Appearance Court. The state’s attorney’s office is fil-
ing a petition to detain Abernathy in custody while he is awaiting trial.
Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “We continue to increase our resources devoted to investigating and arresting those engaged in child abuse. Whether it be sexual abuse or physical abuse, we are going to do everything we can to keep our children safe from predators.”
Driver of fleeing vehicle killed, several others injured in collision
A driver who was previously fleeing from police officers was killed and multiple others were injured in a high speed crash.
On July 6, at approximately 4:30 p.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to Route 173 and Kilbourne Road, unincorporated Zion, for a traffic crash with injuries. When sheriff’s deputies arrived, they located two vehicles with major damage.
A preliminary investigation shows a 32-year-old man of Salem, Wisconsin, was driving a stolen Lexus GS400 in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin. Pleasant Prairie Police Department located the vehicle and attempted to stop the driver. The driver, instead fled at a high rate of speed. Pleasant Prairie Police Officer pursued the driver and successfully utilized a tire deflating device in the area of Kilbourne Road and Russell Road near Russell. Even though one of the Lexus’ tires was deflated, the driver continued fleeing at a high rate of speed.
Pleasant Prairie Police Officers discontinued chasing the driver of the Lexus in the area of Kilbourne Road and Hickory Road, unincorpo-
rated Zion. The driver of the Lexus continued driving recklessly and excessively fast. The driver of the Lexus disregarded the red light at Kilbourne Road and Route 173 and entered the intersection, colliding with a GMC Yukon.
The driver of the Lexus, who was the only occupant, was killed. A 51-year-old front seat passenger of Waukegan in the GMC sustained critical injuries and was transported to an area hospital. The driver of the GMC, a 30-year-old man of Waukegan, and the following rear passengers: a 20-year-old woman of Waukegan, a 28-year-old man of Waukegan, a 15-year-old boy of Waukegan, a 15-yearold girl of Montogomery, an 11-year-old girl of Waukegan, and an eight-year-old girl of Waukegan all sustained non-life-threatening injuries. Several of those injured were transported to area hospitals.
An autopsy on the driver of the Lexus is being scheduled by the Lake County Coroner’s Office. The driver of the Lexus, whose name is withheld pending next of kin notification, had a revoked driver’s license, an active arrest warrant out of Lake County for possessing methamphetamine, and was the suspect in several area burglaries.
The crash remains under investigation by the Lake County Sheriff’s Office Technical Crash Investigations Team.
Three fleeing from stolen vehicle found in possession of loaded firearms
Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies arrested three people for illegally possessing loaded firearms.

ly 11:45 p.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to the 42400 block of North Route 41, Wadsworth, for a vehicle fire. While responding to the scene, Lake County Sheriff’s 911 Emergency Telecommunicators gathered information from a witness who reported seeing three people run from the stolen vehicle into the woods near a truck stop in the area. Sheriff’s 911 telecommunicators relayed the description of the suspects to responding deputies.
Sheriff’s deputies arrived and began checking the area. One deputy saw three individuals, matching the description of the suspects, quickly get into an SUV that arrived near the scene. Sheriff’s deputies determined the SUV was being utilized as a rideshare and they conducted a traffic stop. As they continued their investigation, sheriff’s depu-
ties determined the three were armed with loaded firearms.
The three, identified as Marcus Smith, 19, of Zion, Trashaun King, 18, of Round Lake, and Barion Mhoon, 18, of Kenosha, Wisconsin, were all arrested by sheriff’s deputies. The Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office reviewed the incident and approved four counts of aggravated unlawful possession of a firearm for the three. The state’s attorney’s office filed petitions to detain the three while awaiting trial.
All three appeared in First Appearance Court on July 6 and remained held pending detention hearings on July 9.
The stolen vehicle the three were seen fleeing from was stolen from North Chicago. It is unclear at this time how the vehicle started on fire.
The Illinois State Police are investigating the vehicle fire, as the vehicle was located on an onramp to the tollway, and North Chicago Police are investigating the vehicle theft.
Fireworks likely the cause of two residential fires
Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to two residential structure fires overnight, both likely caused by fireworks.
On July 5, at approximately 12:50 a.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded with numerous local fire agencies to a structure fire in
the 37700 block of Charlotte Drive, Wadsworth. Sheriff’s deputies arrived and learned the three occupants of the home, along with their pets, were able to exit before flames engulfed the entire home. Firefighters fought the blaze for several hours, however, the home was a total loss. The occupants of the home were igniting explosive fireworks near the home, earlier in the evening.
At approximately 1:45 a.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded with numerous local fire agencies to a structure fire in the 300 block of Goshawk Lane, Unincorporated Deerfield. The structure was a townhome, and when first responders arrived, they found the roof on fire. Multiple residents evacuated from the townhome prior to the home becoming engulfed. Firefighters fought the blaze, however, the townhome sustained major damage. There were explosive fireworks being ignited near the townhome, earlier in the evening.
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office reminds the community that most fireworks in Illinois are not legal. Every year, deputies respond to calls where people have been critically injured or where structures have burned to the ground, due to illegally used fireworks. Please leave fireworks to professionals who have obtained the necessary permits, after their safety plans have been approved.
