In her civil case filed this week in McHenry County Circuit Court, Carolyn Cox Mahoney disclosed a murder-for-hire plot reported to her by officials of the Illinois Department of Corrections. It seems that ex-husband Billy J. Cox hasn't been idle at Dixon Correctional Facility and allegedly has been looking for someone interested in a little side job. Or maybe someone with connections outside the walls.
Case No. 11CH001498 is titled "Complaint for Civil Conspiracy to Commit Murder". The defendants are R. Marc (sic) Gummerson, Billy J. Cox and known and unknown co-conspirators. Gummerson, a Woodstock attorney, is identified as the person handling Billy Cox's money and assets, while he is away on his 20-year holiday in Dixon. The Complaint asserts that Billy Cox chatted up fellow inmates to murder Carolyn Cox Mahoney "for pecuniary gain." IDOC officials apparently found an inmate who had agreed to accept payment from Gummerson.
Nothing inferred that Gummerson was any part of the plan or knew anything about it.
Carolyn Cox Mahoney wants the Court to restrain Billy J. Cox from conveying any monetary amount to any other individual without court approval. She also asks for a preliminary injunction against Gummerson from taking any action to convey or dispose of any of Billy Cox's property without prior court approval.
She also seeks at least $50,000 for the distress caused her by the plot.
