Will County deputies responded early Wednesday to two business break-ins on East Washington Street in Joliet Township, where a brick broke a window leading to stolen cash and alcohol and a large rock shattered another door with nothing taken, plus surveillance footage showed a white Jeep Grand Cherokee before each incident, leading officials to believe the crimes are connected.

Will County agreed to a confidential $85,000 settlement after a federal lawsuit claimed its law enforcement unlawfully detained immigrant key witness Norberto Salvador Navarro in a reckless homicide trial β€” the settlement will remain secret unless both sides agree to release details.

Jacoby Hamilton, 20, of Crest Hill pleaded guilty on July 15 to causing the reckless homicide that killed Joliet couple Walter Buddy Kretzler, 65, and Roxane Holt, 59β€”credit for 437 days served reduces his total prison time to about 9.6 months despite a four-year sentence.
