Vermilion County State’s Attorney Jacqueline Lacy is one of the State's Attorneys of 32 counties that have joined Madison County State's Attorney Thomas A. Hanie in a brief seeking to overturn the state's ban on certain types of weapons.
The “friend of the court” brief asks the Supreme Court to strike down the state's Assault Weapons Ban. The legislature passed the ban in January, and Gov. JB Pritzker signed it into law.
“As the duly elected State’s Attorney of Vermilion County, I took an Oath to seek justice and defend the Constitutional rights of all citizens of our County,” stated Lacy.
