Gov. J.B. Pritzker, who on Monday appointed James G. Montgomery Jr., a Massachusetts sheriff’s office official to the new position of executive director of the Illinois Prisoner Review Board, joins ComEd to present G&W Electric with a distributed generation rebate of $2.6 million for the construction of a solar power generation and storage project in Bolingbrook on Monday, April 15, 2024. SPRINGFIELD — Gov. J.B.
In addition to overseeing the expansion of domestic violence training for Prisoner Review Board members, Montgomery will also be tasked with organizing “equity-based” training, overseeing administrative functions of the board and reducing the workload of the board’s chair. He won’t be considered a member of the board and will not have a vote on cases that come before it.
Released on parole in October for a separate crime, Brand was back in state custody in February after he allegedly tried to break into the residence where Jayden and his mother lived. But three board members authorized Brand’s release after determining they didn’t have enough evidence to keep him behind bars.
Senate Republicans called for an overhaul of the review board that would include legislation requiring the members to have 20 years of experience in the criminal justice system as a prosecutor, criminal defense attorney, judge, probation officer or public defender. “Gov. Pritzker has still failed to provide a transparent accounting of the breakdown in the PRB process that led to the deadly release of Crosetti Brand,” Curran said. “Structural reforms such as raising the experience standards for PRB Board Members, increasing transparency requirements for hearings, and timely release notification for crime victims and their families, are still desperately needed to improve public safety.
