The Democrat nominee Lauren Staley Ferry committed a felony and also has not the time to actually pay back the company she stole money from.
As a voter and concerned citizen, I believe you are as worried as we are and ask you to vote for the other candidate. For those who do not have the knowledge that Ferry had stolen a check from her place of employment and made it out to herself. When caught she moved out of state and she went on to continue moving. When these issue was brought to light, Ferry said she was sorry, although not to the injured person, and there was no attempt to pay off this debt, no intention to correct her wrong, rather she apologized and openly complained how hard it was to be confronted with her own blunders.
This only goes to show a total lack of responsibility for her actions not to mention the way she might run the Will County clerks office, if she is able to!
4 thoughts to consider before you vote:
1. Lauren has perpetrated felony forgery and our current Clerk's office has been clean of such corruption.
2. Ferry did not pay back her debt to the victim.
3. Ferry may not be bondable to be our clerk because of her felony embezzlementrecord.
4. Mike Madigan dispatched his team to back up Ferry only showing this could bring more problems for Will County
More news.
A Will County Board member running for 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 try here Wisconsin before the charge was filed.
From the court documents, the charge alleged that, in July of 2002, Staley-Ferry removed a check from her place of employment at Independent Capital Group, then located in Scottsdale, Arizona, made it out to herself for an unknown amount and then deposited it into her personal checking account. The documents reported she did so 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, a spokeswoman for the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office. By that time, Staley-Ferry claimed she had already fled Arizona and was back in the Midwest, eventually settling in Joliet, her hometown.
Ms. .Jacinto said Staley-Ferry’s case predates the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office’s “records retention period,†but that it appears Staley-Ferry was not arrested. Instead, that site Jacinto said, it appears Staley-Ferry was sent a summons to appear in court, which she failed to do.
Also, the Sheriff said, sentencing for a forgery conviction might probably be probation and restitution.
Staley-Ferry said she was see this page unaware of the charges until she had already left Arizona, although she said she did not remember exactly when she departed.
The charges were dismissed in 2012, according to court documents. Jacinto said, in March of 2012, the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office called Independent Capital Group to let them know the status changes in the case.
The Herald-News called Staley-Ferry on Thursday, she said, while she did not remember the exact details, she rejects the charge.
“I am alerted to that,†Staley-Ferry stated. “Obviously, that was in the past.â€
She said the particular criminal charges had been “misdirected†and that there were “nothing there†regarding the charges.
