After a review of records a DuPage County judge ruled against releasing students' school records in a sex abuse case.
School records for two female students at Naperville North High School have no information relevant to the sex abuse case of a former school counselor, a judge recently ruled. An attorney representing a former Naperville North counselor, who is charged with sexually abusing a student, made the records request earlier this year. John Carbonaro, a former school counselor and Naperville Park District employee, is charged with two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse involving one of the two students for which records were sought. The judge sealed the records, which will not be shared with Carbonaro's defense attorney. In addition, prosecutors are seeking to block Carbonaro from offering evidence of an alibi at trial because one has …

Judge Kathryn E. Creswell has denied bond for Daniel Olaska, who is charged in last month's stabbing death of Naperville teacher Shaun Wild. Olaska's next hearing will be March 19.
Judge Kathryn E. Creswell has denied bond for Daniel Olaska, who is charged in the stabbing death of Naperville teacher Shaun Wild. Olaska appeared before the judge Friday morning after the prosecutor asked for either an increase or revocation of bond. Creswell said Olaska “poses a real and present threat to the community." Though he could be placed on house arrest and monitored with a GPS bracelet, she said that would not keep him from fleeing. “There are no conditions or combination of conditions that would reasonably secure the safety of the community,” Creswell said. “The court finds to deny bond.” A hearing was held Feb. 17 to determine if bond should be increased or revoked, but defense attorney Brian Telander had asked that the …
