Sheriff fires janitor

The Jo Daviess County Sheriff, Leo Hefel, recently fired a janitor because the janitor had a personal opinion about the new, fully-loaded, Dodge Charger the sheriff drives. Oh, and the janitor's opinion, expressed after the sheriff asked about it, was that Hefel was a bad sheriff.

Where in the world is Jo Daviess County? Well, for starters, it's in Illinois. It will be a household word soon. Located in the northwest corner of Illinois, the courthouse and sheriff's department are in Galena.

Check out this interview with the fired janitor and his wife, who (for the time-being) is (still) the sheriff's secretary. www.thonline.com/multimedia/?id=2867

Could something like this happen in McHenry County? I doubt it. Think Keith Nygren even knows the names of the janitors in the courthouse?

I suspect not one of them would comment to him about that shiny, white, Chevrolet Tahoe that I hear has heated leather seats. Who really owns that Tahoe? A Woodstock cop told me last September that it was not registered in Nygren's name.
