Last Sunday's early-morning roll-over crash in McHenry County is still not reported by the print media of McHenry County. Why not?
I guess it's not news, when a McHenry County Sheriff's Department Corrections Officer rolls his truck at 3:30AM near or at a T-intersection in the County. First reports to me were that it was a deputy; now it appears that the driver was a corrections officer. I have the name and confirmation that something is going on internally regarding that named-corrections officer and the crash.
Still waiting for Sheriff Nygren to reply to an email sent to him before 8:00AM on Thursday.
As a citizen I am entitled to a response. If the sheriff is out-of-town (Minocqua? vacation time?), then someone ought to be reading his email and directing email to a department employee for a response. He does have a secretary, doesn't he? And there is an Undersheriff on the payroll.
So what is the secrecy all about? When the McHenry County Sheriff's Department withholds information from the media, just because a department employee is involved, that is wrong. The media (editors of the Northwest Herald and Daily Herald) ought to be all over MCSD about this.

Why would they want to cooperate with you? You are very obvious. You stated your purpose which was to slam dunk what you have self righteously decided was an intoxicated officer and there is a cover up. NOW you want people to play nice with you?
Hit a dog enough times and it will not come to you when you call.
As a public body they cannot pick and choose who gets replied and who gets stiff-armed.
I'm not the one who decided the CO was drunk. His friends, who tried to keep him from driving, decided that. Ending upside-down at a county intersection probably helped a deputy and WFRD decide.
Presumably, the crash report will indicate whether the driver was transported away from the scene and by whom.
