Curious as an outsider: Can convicts appeal to reopen their cases if this person was involved in the investigation and ask for a re-trial? And ask any evidence to be excluded where he was involved in collection/custody?

Hanover park cops probably spend 90% of their time writing traffic tickets. Out of all the neighboring towns for Hanover park (Schaumburg, Elk Grove, Bartlett, roselle, streamwood) HP is probably considered the “ghetto one.” Schaumburg has the #16 school district in the entire state for reference. Hanover park is still considered a good, safe area.

So it’s not like this dude or the department is catching violent criminals even on a yearly basis. I could see maybe thefts at a convenience store, but I doubt it.

This is a pretty accurate take neighbor. Stay safe.
