Rantoul Village Administrator and former Danville Mayor Scott Eisenhauer will be able to avoid prosecution for a domestic-violence charge if he successfully completes a second-chance program.
Eisenhauer agreed to participate in a diversionary program that calls for him to pay a $100 fine, perform 15 hours of public service and complete an online education course on conflict resolution within 60 days. Prosecutors say if Eisenhauer complies with those terms, his domestic-violence case will be dismissed at a Nov. 2 hearing. If for some reason he does not, the prosecution on the misdemeanor charges will go forward.
Prosecutors said Eisenhauer’s wife felt the resolution of the case in this manner was “fair.” Through the program, Eisenhauer will be able to retain his $110,000-a-year job with Rantoul.
