Massive Illinois marijuana bust targets remote farm operation

Five men were held on up to 1.5 million bail after a four day stakeout at a secluded farmhouse near Andrew Illinois north of Springfield. Authorities seized 2200 pounds of marijuana worth up to 2 million and nearly 175000 in cash across three raids. The operation is described as the biggest downstate Illinois drug bust to date with federal charges pending for conspiracy to distribute marijuana.

Beshear faults Illinois probe in 1979 Graham shooting

Kentucky Attorney General Beshear releases a report criticizing Illinois authorities and earlier probes into Clyde Daniel Graham, who was killed during an arrest attempt in Effingham in 1979. The pathologist's later findings conflict with initial accounts that Graham was shot in the chest and back, suggesting possible concealment or incompetence. The report flows to Kentucky and Illinois justice agencies for review, with no immediate action expected.
