Feds indict Grant Park Police Chief Scott Fitts


Grant Park Police Chief Scott J. Fitts was arraigned in federal court Wednesday, after he was indicted on 10 criminal charges alleging he ran an illegal prostitution sting scheme out of his police department in 2006. Fitts is accused of shaking down "johns" for more than $400,000.

Fitts, 40, of Manteno, has been charged with wire fraud, tax evasion, obstruction of justice, illegal structuring of financial transactions and making false statements to federal investigators.

After appearing before U.S. Magistrate Judge David Bernthal in Urbana Wednesday afternoon, Fitts was released from custody after posting a $90,000 bond secured by his home.

He also was ordered to have no contact with any witnesses in the case and to take a leave of absence from all law enforcement duties. His next court date is scheduled for Aug. 4 at the federal courthouse in Urbana.



This is a town with a population of 1400 people. I used to eat lunch with the Chief quite regularly at the little restaurant in town.

1. I probably shouldn't mention

that one of the local taxi services turned down the local madam on her offer of exclusive use for volume discount?

You have to wonder what your Chief was pimping out..

2. If prostitution was legal there wouldn't be so many of these

leeching scumbags. *ptui*
