Does MCSD refuse to respond to burglary calls?

Does the McHenry County Sheriff's Department refuse to respond to burglary calls? The building that houses Harmony Real Estate, on Route 20 near Marengo, is now owned by the Estate of Jack Feldkamp.

Jack Feldkamp was killed in his family home on Somerset Drive, in McHenry County southeast of Marengo, on June 7, 2011. The estate administration has been contested, and recently Howard Rigsby, a Woodstock attorney, was appointed as executor of the Estates of both Jack and Audrey Feldkamp.

Apparently, a Hampshire attorney and two individuals may have illegally entered the building today, after an authorized associate of Harmony Real Estate locked the building and left the premises today.

Several calls were placed to the McHenry County Sheriff's Department, and at least one caller was told that the Sheriff's Department was not going to respond, because there have been too many calls-for-service at that location.

The person directly responsible for the operation of the real estate company was successful in getting the Sheriff's Department to respond, and about about 5:20PM at least one deputy was on the scene. Whether any arrests will be made remains to be seen.

If three people were in the building and if the lock on the door was damaged so that they could enter the building, wouldn't it seem likely that there would be three arrests?
