CHICAGO - A judge on Wednesday sentenced a man to 20 years in prison in an attack that killed a 2-year-old boy and his uncle on Valentine's Day in 2017 after he testified against an accomplice at a jury trial last month. Devon Swan, 34, pleaded guilty in October 2023 to conspiracy to commit murder, but he has already served nearly all of his sentence, which was ordered to be at 50% with credit for time served while awaiting trial.

CHICAGO - A federal judge on Tuesday struck from the court record a reference to former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan's personal net worth of more than $40 million, agreeing with the Democrat's defense team that it should have been kept private, even as the attorneys acknowledged the move was "hollow" given that it was already widely publicized.
