Open Meeting Act Violations and Slayings Reported
Belvidere board member Harry Willis testified the Boone County Board of Supervisors violated the Open Meeting Act on multiple occasions. A circuit court hearing followed a suit by the Belvidere Daily Republican filed Dec 10, 19671. The case cites at least eight violations and potentially 13, with ongoing concerns about official misconduct. Meanwhile in Chicago and Belleville, five juveniles face murder charges in separate elderly-woman slayings linked to violent crime.
