No bond for accused teen
By Charles Keeshan
A 16-year-old Crystal Lake girl facing a felony hate crime charge alleging she and a friend distributed anti-homosexual fliers at her high school must remain locked up until her case goes to trial, a McHenry County judge ruled Tuesday.
Citing concerns over the girl’s home environment and her already lengthy juvenile record, Judge Michael Chmiel denied the girl’s request for home detention. Instead Chmiel ordered her held in the Kane County Juvenile Justice Center while the case is pending…
“I’m concerned about you having some potentially negative influences around you,” Chmiel told her. “I think the environment is ripe for failure.”
The girl’s mother said her daughter had gone through some “rough spots” but had not been a problem in the home for at least a year. She later declined comment on the judge’s decision or the charges…
She and her 16-year-old friend each face charges of hate crime, disorderly conduct and resisting a peace officer stemming from their arrest May 11 outside Crystal Lake South High School. The charges allege the girls were distributing fliers showing two men kissing and containing inflammatory language toward homosexuals.Authorities say the fliers were directed specifically toward a male classmate — and neighbor of one of the girls — with whom they had been feuding. Both girls are suspended from school as a result, authorities said Tuesday, and likely will not be allowed back until at least the next school year.
Chmiel agreed Tuesday to place the second girl on home detention. She will be placed on electronic monitoring and allowed to leave only for school, counseling, work or other activities approved by a probation officer.

Crystal Lake is a “white flight” enclave fifty miles north of Chicago, which faced its first serious ethnic cleansing of European-Americans in the early 1970s. Today the city of Crystal Lake is nearly 95% white, which explains the over-reaction to the alleged behavior of these girls. The establishment fears the growing resistance to various points of the politically-correct agenda, especially among the young people who have to live with the consequences of misrule. We have seen similar overkill in Indiana, where a high school was “locked down” because of unrest associated with a pro-homosexual event, and in Maine, where an otherwise forgettable incident involving white kids and Somali refugees has been overblwon into a crisis.
