You can’t trust cops around your personal info, data, communications, or pretty much anything. Officers have a lot of power and access to plenty of databases filled with personal info. They abuse this power and access frequently. Here’s some (recent) historical perspective. In July 2024, a female police officer was awarded a $1 million settlement […]

GLEN CARBON - On Nov. 22, 2024, several Father McGivney Catholic High School (FMCHS) students made a meaningful impact in our community by delivering 16 full Thanksgiving meals to local families in need. This heartwarming outreach was made possible by the dedicated efforts of the McGivney National Honor Society Cansgiving Committee. The students organized this initiative from start to finish, ensuring the proper food items were collected, shopping for turkeys and hams, and coordinating delivery logistics with Brightpoint. Their commitment and teamwork were truly inspiring. A special thank you to the generous supporters whose cash donations helped cover any needed items, as well as the purchase of the turkeys and hams. Additional support came from our own Griffin Guard, whose contribution ensured this project’s success as well as the Gardening Club who provided fresh flowers for all the families. We are incredibly proud of our students and grateful to everyone who played

ELSAH - A woman from Elsah is the subject of a Jersey County child battery case after allegedly battering a minor with a belt while another child was present. Christina A. Smith, 41, of Elsah, was charged on Nov. 18, 2024 with aggravated domestic battery (a Class 2 felony) and endangering the life or health of a child (a Class A misdemeanor). On Nov. 16, 2024, Smith allegedly struck a child under the age of 18 with a belt “several times, kicked him in the head with her feet, and struck him in the arms and back area multiple times,” according to descriptions of the charges. A petition to deny Smith’s pretrial release states another child was present during the incident, leading to the involvement of the Department Children Family Services (DCFS). “The defendant battered the child with the belt in such a manner to cause bruising to the arms and back in addition to kicking the child in the head,” the petition states. “The defendant is also

Yesterday I posted a brief item noting that the CDC never recommended that schools be closed during COVID. In fact, by July 2020, shortly before the new school year was about to start, they were strongly recommending that schools open in the fall. So why did so many schools close? The answer is that the ...continue reading "If the CDC didn’t close schools during COVID, who did?"
