I don't know how many people know of this. On the top floor of the McHenry County courthouse is the Circuit Court department and there are computers there that the general public can use to find information about criminal and civil court cases. This is great because it means that ordinary people like you and me can go there and look up information on just about anyone we want. We can then find out if they've been divorced or otherwise in trouble with the law. Doing this can be useful for finding information about all sorts of people. You can find out if your next door neighbor is a criminal or if a new person you met has ever been divorced or not.....or anything at all that is in the system. It's surprising how many people don't even know about this. ;D
I should mention a little disadvantage to doing this, though. Once you enter the courthouse they search all your stuff, make you turn on your cell phone to make sure its not a bomb, and even have you take babies out of strollers and carseats in order to have them walk through metal detectors before then searching everything inside the said stroller/carseat. This part is not always much fun to do......
