Kelly Given was forced to resign - Marengo, IL
Marengo Police Officer Kelly Given resigned on May 2, 2006. This is very good news, as she has used her police dog to brutally attack a 14 year old girl, Nichole Surber. Two weeks previous to this date, Officer Given has submitted sealed arrest records of this girl, for publication by the Northwest Herald. This is illegal and a felony, yet the Marengo Police Department did not bring charges against Officer Given, but instead allowed her to resign. I wonder if they plan of giving her a good reference as well, so that she can then be hired by an another department?
Officer Given has caused the Marengo Police Department numerous embarrassment and harm. Mainly due to her incompetence as a canine officer, the Marengo Police Department has had to get rid of Quanto, the police dog, for whom a large amount of taxpayer funds was spent for acquisition and training. Marengo claims that there were not enough funds for the dog, which is not true, as the only cost for keeping a police dog after he is trained involves veterinarian visits and food.
During the incident with Nichole Surber, who was arrested for underage drinking at a high school football game, Officers Given and Crawford sat on her chest, allowed the police dog to bite her, which resulted in scars Surber carries to this day, and pulled her out of the police car by her feet, which resulted in her head hitting the roof of the car, and purposely exposed her breast to onlookers. Two weeks later, Officer Given grabbed Kevin Gaughan hard by the arms while he was bending over his injured brother, pulled him away, and charged him with aggravated battery, even though she very well knew he did nothing wrong. She also falsely testified against both of the Gaughan brothers before a grand jury hearing. Why did she do so?
I have information from various reliable sources that she was dating Scott Crawford and had a need to protect him. In fact, I believe her relationship with Crawford effected her home life, causing her fiancée to leave her. This is the reason, I believe, that she sent in the sealed police report on Nichole Surber to the local paper, who were then immoral enough to print an article on the report. Luckily, because of the serious nature of such an action, she was forced to resign. Not so luckily, the State’s Attorney’s Office has not been willing to bring charges against her, due to the need to cover up their own questionable actions in bringing charges against the Gaughans and others who were falsely convicted.
