MCSD - NIXLE alive (and well....)

The McHenry County Sheriff's Department (MCSD) sent out a NIXLE message this afternoon. What did it cost the Department (and the taxpayers) for the time to put it together?

It's "nice" to get a NIXLE message that Halloween is October 31. Duhhhh.......   How did we get along for years without NIXLE? Didn't Halloween occur before NIXLE? Didn't parents know to warn their kids and to check the candy?

Of course, MCSD didn't use it when James Henson kicked his way out of a squad car and roamed (almost) free for 12 hours.

But MCSD feels the need to "alert" the public about Halloween...  Our tax dollars at work, folks...
