THANK YOU

Please extend a giant THANK YOU to all who supported us in the Parole Protest hearing process this year.  End of Watch-Winnebago County Detective Michael Mayborne March 15, 1974.

Our hearing was held at the Lee County Court House with Mr. Salvador Diaz presiding on May 13th.  The enbanc vote will not be until June 19th, so we don't know the outcome, although there has been some major upsets between Senators downstate about this case and a few others pending votes.  Most are cop killers.  Senators Cullerton and Hendon along with Senator Martinez and President Emil Jones were voting against law enforcement, States Attorney's and victims in attempting to unseat Mr. Diaz, a former police officer in Cook County.  He has been reinstated after much unnecessary debate mostly over power.

Mr. Bacino (inmate) missed release last year by 2 votes, Pray he remains in prison this year also.  Whatever the outcome, we want to tell all ILCOP    families, brothers and sisters, from the bottom of our heart, thank you for your embracing us.  Sometimes there justice and sometimes there's just US!  Thank you for being the part of US.

Love and blessings to all,
Friends and family of Detective Michael Mayborne
Terry Mayborne-Rudeen and family

Online Petition

The Altman family is trying to get armor piercing bullets off the streets, and especially out of the hands of evil-doers. Our son was killed by two thugs shooting him in the face and back with these bullets. We have petitions which will be presented to appropriate government officials in hopes of both getting these bullets off the streets and making persons selling or trading them to be held just as responsible as the person who uses them to kill our law enforcement officers.

Please sign our petition and then pass it on to every other person you possibly can and ask them to also sign it. The petition is located on the web site link posted below.
