Seriously!?!?!?! What was their reasoning for dropping the charges but still prosecuting the other two? This is whats wrong with government...they are not above the law...they work for us, we the people! And to top it off Manley gets elected after getting arrested for battery! Illinois is one screwed up state! Hope people remember this when the next election rolls around!

Are you kidding me? Whipping a guy and then having the charges dropped!!! This is corruption at its finest. Burkette did the same thing to get his kid off too.....

Why do these clowns get elected?

It's obvious this paper caters to conservative readers.

Is anyone really surprised?

Just another case of corruption in one of the most corrupt counties in our state! When will people learn that we need to replace these judges, and their cohorts in every election?

I have to agree with John that Will County is one of the most corrupt counties in the state. This has been going on for years. Thank God someone finally is making it an issue.

someone will teach him a lesson!

OMG typical politics. Somebody show take a belt and whip him. Somebody should follow up on this and prosecute him.

Glasgow & his special prosecutors save the day once again Neal gave no explanation to why he wanted the case dismissed wow at least make it look good

"Special prosecutors" in Will County are jokes. Also: this county had $250,000 worth of heroin stolen from a county evidence locker. This county had a sheriff's deputy run down a pedestrian on Briggs St. and the driver remains unknown to the public. The pedestrian remains dead. This county botched the Fox case even when the killer left his name on shoes that were found near the scene. This county originally ruled the Kathleen Savio death an accident. No one in this county has solved the Angela and Brian Charles murders, even when Brian's estranged ex was at the crime scene early in the morning to get or give some games or dvds. Crooked and stupid are the twins that run this county.

Just another example of the Illinois Democratic Machine at it's finest.. The State is corrupt from top to bottom.. Crook County and Will County leading the way...
No accountability, no explanation.. do as they please and screw the rest of us.
I find it amazing that A) the voters keep re-electing these clowns and B) that anyone still has any desire to live in this state!

Battling Natalie was a sweet deal. For her. It took a few months for the insiders to get her off the hook. "Charges were dropped". I still love that mug shot though.

Wilhelmi needs to start being a real father. This young man will be learning about life the hard way some day.

Must be nice to live above the law because of who your daddy is.

This is a very sad story, on all sides. How can the Lechwar and Wilhelmi family ever teach their sons how to be honorable men if they continue to prevent those boys from ever paying the price for their actions? There's no escaping punishment. Everyone of us have and must always pay for our actions. That's the devine law.

The absolute reckless behavior, and possible drug addiction involved in both cases must be very devastating for the family, friends, and the victims that suffer. They need prayer.

There's no amount of money or power in the world that can straighten out a trouble person. Only God can.

The fact that Glasgow et al may have usurp justice by denying these boys punishment only delays the inevitable. They're not doing them any good. It's very sad.

One more point: The ironic thing is this - the two boys that will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law may learn a great deal from the experience, and change their life. This experience can turn out to be a blessing for them.

I will pray for all involved.

Gee, what a surprise. Another child of an elected official, like the David Koschman case and Daley's nephew. If it were anyones else's son or daughter, they would be found guilty and sent away.

Vigilante Law would be kind of cool, but there's a small flaw in that plan. We'll actually go straight to the pokie for playing super hero. My Daddy's not an elected official. I guess it's OK to just make fun of them from this angle.

Alex Wilhelmi, New Lenox's Lindsey Lohan.

Vote for Glasgow again! When will the voters wake up and vote him out.

What a joke Glasgow is....more Will country taxpayer money to help his friends.

Man, I was gone for a bit, & the message must've gotten yanked. My emaIl said F U to several people, including myself. It's not all BS & lies, & you know. We, or I, am just having fun a your friend's expense. Just like he did when he chose his path that night. So I guess F U too.

It's who you know in this world !

Jim Glasgow doesn't have the stones to prosecute "heater" cases himself, at least not when they involve other Democrats. So Glasgow gives it to a "special prosecutor" from Grundy County -- a fellow Democrat -- and the fix is in. But the voters re-elected Glasgow, despite his incompetence (the State won the Peterson case in spite of him, not because of him), and we get what we deserve. Justice for the few.

HERE'S VIDEO PROOF OF THE REASON:

Totally agree Walker Percy. Will County corruption at it's best. Having worked with Dave Carlson, I was praying he would oust Glasgow. Was not to be. Infuriates me. Will County politics disgusts me.
