Yesterday, former Chicago Public Schools dean Brian Crowder pled guilty to aggravated criminal sexual abuse (a Class 1 felony) of GGH’s client, a former CPS student, in court only to then take the plea back a short time later over confusion about how long he would have to register as a sex offender (10 years v lifetime registration). GGH Founding Partner Marty Gould, attorney Nicholas Wainwright, and law clerk Gabriella Youash spoke with reporters outside the Leighton Criminal Courthouse regarding the importance of Illinois’ lifetime sex offender registration laws.
