administrator.

Yesterday afternoon, they came out with the wife and army son being involved story. Apparently, he told friends a few weeks ago he was "taking a break" from social media.

Folks who didn't know there was an ongoing investigation of Gliniewicz and came out huge in support of him and his family, let alone the funeral procession honoring him... the guy was as dirty as they come. What a mess. I'm so thankful he didn't get someone shot with his fake-ass 'chasing three suspects' ploy.

folks had put up after his death and the big Xs on them now crossing it out and not nice words written over on them like SCUM. People there have been betrayed yes, yet the town still has others in denial

In addition to trying to hire a hit man and finding cocaine in his desk, two other items came out today.

1. The son in the military married the dad's mistress in a sham marriage to get better benefits.
2. Other cops actually wrote a letter about his misconduct to the mayor of Fox Lake which was ignored.

As soon as it came out that he was embezzling that kind of money, I knew that at least the wife had to be involved.

Some of the groups that donated money to the family are now asking for it back.

He was truly scum.
