LeROY, Il – A vocal citizen was arrested for trespassing at city hall last week, and the incident has the city council considering added security measures at the building.
William Morgan, 51, of LeRoy, was arrested on Thursday, June 30 for Criminal Trespass to State Supported Property, Disorderly Conduct and Eavesdropping…
Williamson said Morgan secretly recorded City Administrator David Jenkins in Jenkins’ office on June 29 which led to the eavesdropping charge. That video was posted to a Facebook page linked to Morgan later in the day, but Morgan’s page and the video have since been deleted.
The June 29 video showed Morgan loudly complaining about downtown garbage cans which he believed had not been emptied on schedule…
The June 30 arrest came after Morgan returned to city hall and once again alleged misconduct regarding the city’s response to the previous day’s visit. That’s when he “yelled at city employees” and “refused demands to leave the building,” per Williamson.
As of Wednesday, the McLean County State’s Attorney’s office had filed two trespassing charges – Class A and Class B misdemeanors for trespass on state supported land and criminal trespass remaining on land – but had not filed eavesdropping charges.
Morgan was jailed with a $1,500 bond…
