The McHenry County Sheriff's Department put out a Media Release over the blank signature line of Sheriff Keith Nygren. Maybe no one was willing to own up to the spelling of "Mobile" or no one was willing to challenge the spelling of the person who wrote it up.
What was the last-known direction of travel of the "Mobile" gas station? Did it have four tires? Was it an 18-wheeler? Was it a drive-off without payment?
And what does "overnight hours" on July 15 mean? Does it mean July 14-15? or July 15-16? Wouldn't the estimated time of the burglary be between the time the last employee departed and the time the first employee arrived the next morning? Oh, that might take too many words...
Were lights in use on the "Mobile" gas station? It should have been pretty easy to spot rolling down the highway or roads of McHenry with no lights in the middle of the night.
OK, enough fun... everybody knows that the brand name is Mobil, not Mobile. Well, almost everyone.
Why didn't anyone sign the Sheriff's name and put his initials in a little circle, as was being done until recently? Does an unsigned Media Release mean the Sheriff was back up in Minocqua (where tomorrow's Low will be 63° F. and the high will be 84° F.)?
Better yet, why doesn't the shift commander or the Public Information Officer issue these Media Releases and sign his/her own name?
Or will the new Intelligence Unit take over Media Releases?
