Judicial candidate slapped with emergency no-stalking order

Posted in:

Illinois

On October 25th, County Risk Manager Lisa Shamhart filed documents asking for an emergency “Stalking No Contact Order” against former McHenry County Clerk Mary McClellan, now a second time candidate for Circuit Court Judge.

The petition was signed by Associate Judge Jennifer Johnson with a hearing set for 9 AM on November 15th.

Shamhart says the following occurred, including fake blood on her daughter’s front door and a beheaded duck on the front porch. Shamhart notes, “Mary and her husband Ed Gil are well known bird hunters.”

* You may recall McClellan from last year…

More than 116,000 McHenry County residents voted in Tuesday’s midterm election – but unofficial election results showed about 21 percent of them did not pick candidates in statewide races.

What a mess that was.

Did the clerk or the state board of elections ever put out a report to explain what happened there? Did the machines not count those votes or was there some other mistake?

Is the duck a Chicago equivalent of a dead fish?

Duck- I think it was a glitch posting online. Don’t remember for sure though.

I presume McClellan is running on her experience with the judicial system.

As a hunter, harvesting game then using the carcass as some form of half-*** Godfather threat shows disrespect for the animal.
“Hunters” like that are on the same level as poachers.

She’s not exactly a leading candidate for that seat either.

But that’s a very odd thing to have happen.

Ya know, roasted beheaded duck is very tasty.
