If you’re looking for someone to blame for what has been a summer of gunfire in Kankakee that has claimed the lives of five people, you can point to the mayor. At this week’s Kankakee City Council Meeting, Mayor Chris Curtis said essentially that the buck stops with him.
Kankakee Police Chief Robin Passwater says in many of the shootings police know there were witnesses, but getting them to assist with the investigation is like pulling teeth. Even cases where a reward is offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction , do not generate a response.
