IEMA leases space at 1035 Outer Park Drive for $2.6 million over five years. Williams said that as of June, approximately 28,600 employees, or 60 percent, of the state s workforce throughout Illinois was in the office and approximately 18,900 employees, or 40 percent, of the workforce was still working remotely or in a hybrid status. Williams said it s too early to say how much of that remote work will continue, or what impact it may have on the square footage the state needs to maintain for its in-person employees. The Illinois Department of Central Management Services continues to assess the state s real estate portfolio statewide and will make future adjustments to optimize leases as needed, Williams said. The health and safety of state employees remains the highest priority.

Porter’s case led in part to former Illinois Gov. George Ryan halting executions in the state.
In 2003, Ryan declared a moratorium on executions in 2003 and before leaving office cleared death row by commuting the death sentences of more than 150 inmates to life in prison.
Gov. Pat Quinn abolished the death penalty in 2011.
Hanlon consulted with Porter and his family in Chicago in 2013 after the conviction of an alternate suspect in the 1982 double murder case began to unravel.
Porter s case was absolutely pivotal, Hanlon said, on a number of fronts. It s a great innocence case, said Hanlon, who also worked for the Illinois Appellate Defender. There s a total lack of physical evidence (against Porter) and you have one witness who the police interrogated for a lengthy time and his statement changed after that, not so shocking.
