You are posting old and false information up regarding Michael Bocska. This arrest did NOT happen, this happened about a year ago and he had just served 1 day in jail for this incident that had happened in April of last year. You need to either fix this as soon as possible and put the correct information up on here, or the police will be called and they will be involved in this regarding the false information put up and the defamation of Michael Bocska.

The information came directly from the Will County Sheriff's Department booking records. If you have documentation that that information is incorrect, email me and I will get in touch with the sheriff's department to verify it.

Slick Dick, the arrest did happen, just not on Jan 22nd? Sorry, Slick Rick

It was probably a warrant that he was picked up on for the above charges. So yes this incident I'm sure happened Slick Rick. Good luck on calling the police for this matter, I'm sure they will look into it for you..,..haha

Why are we wasting jail space on non-violent offenders? Meanwhile, repeat violent offenders are constantly being released to make room for pot smokers and drunks. Most violent crime arrests are repeat offenders.

Shannon, you are assuming that nobody in the Will County Sheriff's Department booking records department ever makes mistakes? Why don't you make a simple phone call to verify it? This is YOUR article - take ownership of it and verify like an actual reporter would do...

Jacob you should have kept your nose clean..
In Illinois the punishment for your infraction is as follows..
When the defendant is charged with manufacturing, delivering, or possessing with intent to deliver than the above weights, the fine is increased presumably because the defendant was engaged in a business of selling cannabis. The law provides:

30 to 500 grams is a Class 3 felony (2-5 years prison) for which the fine can be up to $50,000.
500 to 2,000 grams is a Class 2 felony (3-7 years Department of Corrections) and the fine can be up to $100,000.
2,000 to 5,000 grams is a Class 1 felony for which the sentence can be 4-15 years prison and the fine can be up to $150,000.
5,000 grams or more is a Class X felony. Probation is not possible for a Class X felony offense and the defendant must be sentenced to 6-30 years in the Department of Corrections. The fine can be $200,000.

So how many violent crime convicts will need to be released to make room for Jacob while he does his minimum 1 year stint in prison for possessing a PLANT that grows NATURALLY and has been PROVEN to have medicinal value? I don't smoke the stuff but I've also NEVER read a story about a driver killing innocent people because he was driving while stoned on pot either. Illinois needs to STOP wasting taxpayer money on their bogus war on cannabis...

Sad Ass Newberry

Please allow me to assist Shannon. Anyone with a modicum of wherewithal and access to the internet can verify this arrest for themselves. In the absence of the intellect nature provided a gnat, I'm looking at you "slick", one might be up in arms and threatening the power of the...wait for it...police? Really? So when you need them (or think you do) they are a valuable resource? Anyway, numbskull(s) check the link:

He was, in fact, re-arrested on the date reported in this blotter. Will County lists him as a remand from court. That means he went to court on the April charge, was convicted, and was remanded to the custody of the Will County Sheriff's Department. Oops.
