Forensic Scientist II Tabithah Marcacci uses such equipment for DNA samples. Illinois State Police 1998 Annual Report produced by the Public Information Office Lieutenant Dave Sanders, Chief Public Information Officer Staff: M/Sgt. Lincoln Hampton, Bridget DePriest, Bob Fletcher, Kristin Ives, Mark McDonald, Pam Wieties 3 Director’s Message For the Illinois State Police, 1998 was a year full of accomplishments. The new District 1 Headquarters in Sterling opened; we purchased new robotic equipment to auto- mate the analysis of the DNA offender data bank; we merged the breath alcohol testing program of the Illinois Department of Public Health with our own; we restored an effective police pres- ence in Cicero; and helped establish a statewide school violence tip-line. The ISP made more traffic, DUI, seat belt, and criminal arrests than in 1997. Serious crimes were down by nearly four percent coupled with a reduction in highway fatalities. We also investigated more accidents and placed more trucks and drivers out of service. Our forensic laboratories handled more cases. Our highway drug interdiction program topped the 100,000 pound mark for cannabis seizures for the first time since its inception in 1990. Every single employee contributed in some way to the basic mission of our agency — to reduce crime and improve highway safety. In 1998, ISP employees continued the tradition of hard work, professionalism, and dedication. The fruits of their efforts are described in this report, but simply stated, they translate to safer streets and communities where the citizens of Illinois can live, work, and raise families.

  • CHAPTER 2. Hazard Profiles and Loss Estimation
    CHAPTER 2. Hazard Profiles and Loss Estimation Following the guidance provided in FEMA’s mitigation planning how-to guide, Understanding Your Risks: Identifying Hazards and Estimating Losses (FEMA 386-2), the Jersey County Hazard Mitigation Planning Team initially reviewed local records and existing mitigation plans, conducted informal interviews with local experts from the public and private sectors – including emergency responders and individuals at institutions of higher education – and researched data available on state and federal Websites to ascertain the natural hazards that posed any potential risk to Jersey County. This initial stage of research indicated that additional research should be conducted on the following hazards: earthquakes, extreme heat, floods, hailstorms, land subsidence, severe winter storms, tornadoes, wildfires, and windstorms. Of these hazards, the following were deemed the most prevalent: earthquakes, floods, severe thunderstorms (a category that encompasses hailstorms and windstorms), severe winter storms and tornadoes. These natural hazards and their potential impact on the county are profiled in detail in this chapter. Justification for the exclusion of extreme heat, land subsidence and wildfires from this more detailed profile is provided in a concluding section at the end of this chapter. 2.1 Earthquakes General Information about Earthquakes For hundreds of millions of years, the forces of plate tectonics have shaped the Earth as plates move slowly over, under, and past each other. Most of the time, this movement is gradual. However, sometimes the plates lock together, creating tension. When the accumulated energy grows strong enough, the plates break free, causing the ground to shake. This sudden, rapid shaking of the earth caused by the breaking and shifting of rock beneath the earth’s surface is an earthquake.1 Shaking from earthquakes can collapse buildings and bridges, disrupt gas, electric, and phone services, or trigger landslides, avalanches, or fires.

    U.S. Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs Office for Civil Rights Washington, D.C. 20531 March 22, 2011 Sergeant Bruce Bialorucki Legal Counsel Illinois State Police 801 South Seventh Street, Suite 1100-S P.O. Box 19461 Springfield, IL 62794-9461 Re: Notice of Findings v. Illinois State Police (10-OCR-0251) Dear Sergeant Bialorucki: Thank you for the documentation that you submitted to the Office for Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice, on behalf of your client, the Illinois State Police (ISP), in connection with the administrative Complaint that (Complainant) filed against the ISP. In his Complaint, the Complainant alleges that Trooper discriminated against him based on race (African American), sex (male), and religion (Christian) in connection with a March 17, 2009, traffic stop and search of the Complainant’s vehicle. The OCR has completed our review of the documentation provided by both the ISP and the Complainant and has determined that there is insufficient evidence of a violation of the civil rights laws that we enforce. Our findings are set forth below for your review. In his Complaint, the Complainant alleges that the following occurred on March 17, 2009: At approximately 1:40 p.m. the Complainant was driving his company’s truck southbound on Interstate 57 near milepost 115 when Trooper pulled his truck over. Trooper told the Complainant that the Complainant had been speeding as the Complainant drove down a hill; the Complainant acknowledges to the OCR that he was driving down a hill at the time he was stopped and that his speed may have increased.
