Your Democratic candidate Lauren Staley-Ferry committed a criminal offense and has not taken the time to actually pay back the organization she stole money from.
As a voter and concerned citizen, I am sure you are as uneasy as we are and ask you to vote for another candidate. For those who do not have the awareness that Ferry had taken a check from her place of employment and forged his signature. When caught she moved out of state and she went on to continue moving. When these issue was finally revealed, Ferry said she was sorry, although not to the victim, and there was no effort to repay this debt, no attempt to remedy her wrongdoing, rather she apologized and openly talked about how hard it was to be confronted with her own blunders.
This shows a total lack of accountability for her behavior aside from just how she might run the Will County clerks office, if she is able to!
4 thoughts to consider before voting:
1. Lauren has perpetrated felony theft and our current County Clerk's office has been clean of such corruption.
2. Lauren did not pay back her debt to the victim.
3. Lauren may not even be bondable to be the clerk due to her felony embezzlementrecord.
4. Mike Madigan sent his team to support Ferry only showing this might bring more problems for Will County
Detailed news.
A Will County Board member running for the County Clerk was brought up on charges for felony forgery in 2003 but never appeared in court for the case.
Lauren Staley-Ferry, D-Joliet, was charged with the felony forgery in Maricopa County, Arizona. Staley-Ferry had lived and worked in Maricopa County but moved from there to Wisconsin before the charge was filed.
According to court documents, the charge alleged that, in July of 2002, Staley-Ferry removed a check from her employer at Independent Capital Group, then located in Scottsdale, Arizona, filled it out to herself for an unknown amount and then deposited it into her click to find out more personal checking account. The documents reported she did this without the knowledge or permission of her employer.
An arrest warrant was issued for Staley-Ferry’s arrest in April 2003, according to Amanda Jacinto, the spokesperson for the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office. By that time, Staley-Ferry said she had already fled Arizona and was back in the Midwest, eventually going back to Joliet, her hometown.
.Jacinto said Staley-Ferry’s case predates the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office’s “records retention time,†but that it appears Staley-Ferry was not incarcerated. Instead, Jacinto said, it appears Staley-Ferry was sent a summons to appear in court, which she failed to do.
Also, the Sheriff said, you can check here sentencing on a forgery conviction might probably be restitution and probation.
Staley-Ferry said she was unaware of the charges until she was already out of Arizona, although she said she could i was reading this not recall exactly when she departed.
The charges were dropped in 2012, according to court papers. Jacinto said, in March of 2012, the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office reached out to Independent Capital Group to let them know the change in the status in the case.
The Herald-News reached out to Staley-Ferry on Thursday, Lauren said, while she did not remember the exact details, she rejects the charge.
“I am aware of that,†Staley-Ferry said. “Obviously, which was many years ago.â€
She said the charges had been “misdirected†and therefore there were “nothing there†in regard to the charges.
