Dog Killing Inmate Creating More Problems


 

Terrence Williams, who is featured above in this mugshot photo, was convicted of killing a dog in 2018, but now has gotten into more trouble after throwing feces and urine on the employees who work at the Will County Jail. 

In October of 2018 Will County Circuit Judge Sarah Jones sentenced Williams to one year in the Illinois Department of Corrections after he pled guilty to abusing and brutalizing a dog. The felony of aggravated cruel treatment of animals came after court documents claimed “defendant picked [the] dog up and slapped (sassy) cracking skull of dog open, then kicked [the] dog back into owner’s yard. Dog passed away from the injuries sustained by defendant’s actions.” After serving 41 days in the Will County Jail as he was awaiting trial, Judge Jones game him good time credit for the 41 days.

Williams was arrested three years ago this October on charges of unlawful possession of a stolen gun, unlawful use of a weapon by a felon and a charge of criminal trespass to a residence. As of right now Williams’ bail is set at $637,500, but it is steadily going up. 

Williams’ bail is on the rise due to his behavior while in the custody of Sheriff Mike Kelley and the Will County Adult Detention Facility on South Chicago Street. A mental fitness evaluation has been ordered for Williams by Will County Judge Daniel Rippy to determine if Williams is fit to stand trial for all his criminal charges. Williams is dues to appear is Rippy’s courtroom on October 14.

List of charges Williams is facing since this summer:

            September 14, charged with public indecency and disorderly conduct. July 28, charged with battery (threw urine on a fellow inmate). July 26, charged with aggravated battery (throwing more urine, this time at a female Will County Sherriff Deputy). July 9, charged with disorderly conduct (exposing himself and urinating to provoke a disturbance). July 4, charged with battery (threw a container of fluid hitting another Will County Sherriff). June 27, charged with criminal damage to property (damaged a window from the Will County Sheriff Adult Detention Facility).

Doubled Tax Increases!?

Earlier this year, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker pushed against the gas tax increase by placing a 6 month hold on the scheduled hike. His goal was to relieve Illinois families from further financial stress. As published by My State Line reporter, John Clark, “Pritzker hoped that the initiative might ease the effects of inflation on residents.” Initially postponed to January 1 of this year, a bill coming from Springfield has proposed that the hike in gas tax be pushed back an additional 6 months.  Across the country, gas prices are decreasing; but Illinois remains number two in terms of how much its residents have to pay to fill up their tanks.
