LIG sends Sauer case to county prosecutor

Posted in:

• Illinois

* The most interesting part about this story is that the Legislative Inspector General referred the case to his office…

Lake County prosecutors are investigating allegations former state Rep. Nick Sauer of Lake Barrington unlawfully posted nude photos of an ex-girlfriend on a fake Instagram account.

State’s Attorney Michael Nerheim confirmed Sunday his office’s special investigations division is handling the case. The ex-girlfriend initially filed complaints with the Chicago Police Department and the Illinois legislative inspector general’s office.

“We have the investigation,” Nerheim said. “We are coordinating with Chicago police.”

The inspector general’s office brought the complaint to the Lake County state’s attorney’s office, Nerheim added.

Sauer, by the way, has not yet officially withdrawn from his reelection bid as of 10:24 this morning.

1. Sauer should officially withdraw his candidacy and spare us all the “suspense” of the inevitable.

   Curious. Is there an angle he can play here by delaying?

7. According to Politico Sauer has to go down to Springfield, anyone confirm? If so that may not be a trip he wants to make. Also if someone else can file his petitions why can’t someone file his withdrawal?
