There is a kid here in town who might be well-advised to start learning the error of his ways and get his life turned around - now. Try the name Joshua A. Chacon, age 18.
In 2009 alone, the first report that caught my eye was an arrest by the Woodstock High School resource officer on February 5 for felonious delivery of Adderall, a prescription drug commonly doled out for conditions like ADHD.
The September 9 edition of The Woodstock Independent (Page 8) carried Chacon's name in the Police Blotter for an arrest on August 28 for battery in the 1500 block of North Seminary.
And today's Northwest Herald (Page 3A) carried an article that Chacon had been charged with shooting out windows of parked cars with BBs, possibly with a slingshot, on September 8.
Anyone care to forecast the future path of this kid?

Perfect candidate for McHenry County Sheriff.
Indeed his life has taken a spiraling path downward. However, the incident from Woodstock High School is a lie and a set up. Because he was found guilty with no evidence in high school; he gave up though people like me tried to help. When I say no evidence, I mean no evidence - no video, no audio, no testimony.
Wouldn't it be great if people would step in and try to set kids on a successful path when they are still in school? I would love to see CEO's, and business people who graduated from Woodstock High School come back and be an inspiration and then duplicate that across the USA. Imagine how different things could be! The cost savings to taxpayers would be enormous if people would stop taking and start giving.
I invested years into Josh, but it all goes back to being found guilty for something he did not do in high school. He literally gave up. It is not an excuse, but it is in his head.
KDU, thank you for your comment.
Josh has continued to create problems for himself since 2009. There are tools available for him to change the path into his future. If he doesn't change, times will get harder. If he, as you say, gave up, then he can now make a new decision.
Or he can continue on down the same dark road. Feel free to contact me by email.
