Melodie Gliniewicz has pleaded guilty to a felony charge of deceptive practices, connected to her late husband's financial misdeeds, avoiding a trial on more serious charges.
-- Melodie Gliniewicz, the widow of disgraced Fox Lake Police Lt. Joe Gliniewicz, was sentenced to 18 to 24 months' probation Tuesday after, connected to her late husband's financial misdeeds, avoiding a trial on more serious charges.
Joe Gliniewicz committed suicide seven years ago, staging it to look like a murder. He was found dead in a wooded area in September 2015, and authorities initially believed he had been killed by suspects he was chasing, but they later determined he'd killed himself as investigators were closing in on him for his embezzlement from the Police Explorers youth group.
"We are very pleased that Ms. Gliniewicz is taking legal responsibility for her actions. She deceived the Fox Lake Police Explorer Club and misused their funds. Our lawyers did an excellent job of reaching this negotiation as it foregoes the need for a trial and starts to end a long chapter in this story. The public will be able to learn more about her and her husband's actions through a public sentencing hearing, at which each side can argue for the appropriate sentence.
