The New Year’s Eve order by the Illinois Supreme Court to stay the implantation of the pre-trial fairness act portions of the Safety Act affects law enforcement agencies around the state and here in Wabash County. At yesterday’s county board meeting, Sheriff Derek Morgan said State’s Attorney Kelli Storckman filed a temporary restraining last week asking for no cash bail to not take effect in Wabash County..
A hearing on Storckman’s temporary restraining order was cancelled because of the Supreme Court ruling.
