Meanwhile - in Chicago
I'd like to think there was more to this story, but, I doubt it...
Steve Mills recently reported this on the Chicago Tribune website:
"A former state prison director has worked just one day in the 17 months since he was appointed by Gov. Pat Quinn to a little-known but important state board that decides if inmates should be paroled, according to documents and interviews.
Roger Walker Jr. attended a half-day orientation but has been absent from every meeting of the full Illinois Prisoner Review Board except for one session about three weeks after his appointment in June 2009, records show.
He hasn't attended a single additional hearing or work session at a prison or the board offices in Springfield."
