A few weeks ago I had a home invasion by 4 individuals. 2 adults and 2 minors. I was not home at the time, someone else was present. The person in the home was held at gunpoint while 2 individuals broke into my safe, and two other individuals ransacked my home.
My dog was maced by one minor and placed in another room.
One of the adults and one of the minors are children of my X wife whom I divorced in 2013.
Several items were stolen and damaged in my home. Including firearms, knives, a large amount of cash, silver coins, and electronics.
The majority has been recovered and returned to me. Many of the items are damaged as well as items that were damaged during the robbery. About 60-70% of the cash was recovered and returned to me.
There was a 5th adult individual who drove the getaway vehicle.
The sheriff was called and these individuals were apprehended and are awaiting trial.
One of the adults is a multiple felon recently released from prison in Illinois and was recently arrested for criminal misconduct. He was released, on bond, did not show up for court and had his warrant quashed. He also has other bench warrants out for his arrest. I am puzzled why a multiple violent offender was released on a signature bond.
I am curious as to what civil action I have against these individuals, the parents of the minors and quite possibly the state of Illinois for allowing a known violent individual to be released from custody.
I have damages that will not be covered by my insurance, the individual that was held at gunpoint is having post traumatic stress and will be seeing a therapist and my dog that maced has now become skittish and unpredictable which may require extensive retraining.
Any information would be appreciated.
thanks
