The Illinois Supreme Court is the last line of defense for our Constitutional rights in Illinois.
One member of AEJE witnessed Judge Daniel B. Shanes sentence a person to prison for 8 years that Judge Daniel B. Shane knew or should have known had been declared mentally incompetent and was un fit to even stand trial.
You want this Judge Daniel B. Shanes on the Supreme Court?
Prior to his appointment to the bench in 2007, Judge Shanes served as an assistant State’s Attorney and division chief for nearly 12 years, becoming one of the lead prosecutors. https://www.judgeshanes.com/
Former prosecutors generally make the worst judges, because they no longer have the constitution in their way, when dealing with a person who is charged with a crime. All prosecutors believe that each person that is charged with a crime is guilty of that crime and should good to jail for the maximum amount of time, whether or not the person charged with that crime is guilty or not.
In the opinion of AEJE Judge Daniel B. Shanes is absolutely the last Judge that AEJE would want on a court that was "last line of defense for our constitutional rights in Illinois." https://www.judgeshanes.com/
Voters are strongly encouraged NOT to vote for Judge Daniel B. Shanes.
