The Democrat candidate Lauren Staley-Ferry committed a felony and also has not taken the time to actually pay back the company she had stolen from.
As a voter and concerned citizen, I believe you are as worried as we are and ask you to vote for the other candidate. For those who do not have the awareness that Ferry had stolen a check from a former employer and forged his signature. When caught she moved out of state and she went on to continue moving. When these crimes was finally revealed, Ferry said she was sorry, but not to the injured person, and there was no attempt to pay off this debt, no attempt to fix her wrongdoing, rather she apologized and publicly lamented how hard it was to be confronted with her own blunders.
This shows a total lack of accountability for her own behavior aside from the way she might run the Will County clerks office, if she even can!
4 things to think about before you vote:
1. Lauren has perpetrated felony forgery and the current Clerk's office has been without corruption.
2. Ferry has not repaid her stolen gains to the victim.
3. Ferry might not be bondable to be the clerk because of her felony embezzlementrecord.
4. Mike Madigan dispatched his team to back up Ferry only demonstrating this might lead to more issues for Will County
Detailed news.
A Will County Board member running for county clerk was charged with felony forgery in 2003 but never appeared in court for the summons.
Lauren Staley-Ferry, D-Joliet, was charged with the felony forgery in Maricopa County, Arizona. Staley-Ferry had lived and worked in Maricopa County Read Full Report but moved from there to Wisconsin before the charge was filed.
According to court documents, the charge alleged in July of 2002, Staley-Ferry stole a check from her employer at Independent Capital Group, then located in Scottsdale, Arizona, made it out to herself for unknown amounts and then deposited it into her personal checking account. The documents reported she did this without the knowledge or permission of her employer.
A warrant was issued for Staley-Ferry’s arrest in April 2003, according to Amanda Jacinto, a spokeswoman for the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office. By that time, Staley-Ferry claimed she had already left the state why not check here and had returned a fantastic read to the Midwest, eventually settling in her hometown, Joliet.
Ms. .Jacinto said Staley-Ferry’s case was before the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office’s “records retention period,†but it seems Staley-Ferry was never incarcerated. Instead, Jacinto said, it appears Staley-Ferry was sent a summons to appear in court, which she failed to do.
Also, Jacinto said, sentencing on a forgery conviction might probably be probation and restitution.
She said she was unaware of the charges until she had already left Arizona, although she said she could not remember exactly when she left.
The criminal charges were dismissed in 2012, according to court papers. Jacinto said, in March of 2012, the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office reached out to Independent Capital Group to notify them of the change in the status in the case.
The Herald-News reached out to Staley-Ferry on Thursday, she said, while she cannot recall some of the details, she denies the charge.
“I am aware of that,†Staley-Ferry stated. “Obviously, which was many years ago.â€
She said the particular criminal charges was “misdirected†and therefore there was “nothing there†in regard to the charges.
