JOLIET, IL — A 40-year-old Joliet woman is now in the Will County Jail facing felony charges after she set a 34-year-old woman on fire early Wednesday morning, Joliet police announced. The 34-year-old victim was airlifted from St. Joe's hospital to the Loyola University Medical Center after suffering severe burns to a large portion of her body.
As for Shanna Simpson, she was put in the Will County Jail on two charges of aggravated domestic battery and two counts of aggravated battery.
Joliet police cars and Joliet Fire Department engines rushed to the 200 block of Comstock Street around 3:25 a.m. after learning someone was set on fire inside the house.
"Officers determined that Simpson had set fire to her 34-year-old girlfriend using hand sanitizer and a lighter," police spokesman Dwayne English announced Friday. "Further investigation revealed that after becoming upset with the victim, Simpson covered the victim with hand sanitizer and then used a lighter to ignite the hand sanitizer, causing both the victim and Simpson to catch fire upon their bodies."
Simpson suffered burns to her arms and following her hospital stay at St. Joe's, she was booked into the Will County Jail late Thursday afternoon.
A resident of the 500 block of Ward Avenue, Simpson's bail was set at $500,000, jail logs show.
The victim remained at Loyola on Good Friday, Joliet police advised.

I told myself I didn’t need to look.
I did.
I didn’t need to look as it was no surprise.
Laz is safe from a decision.
Laz likes hot women, in this case, a lez made another lez, and herself, hot...
That’s disgusting.
At the time, I thought it was good.
It SHOULD be attempted murder!
I watched a true crime program about a lady, Diane Pranske, who was came home from work late one night to find an intruder in her house who robbed her, raped her, strangled her, dumped her in the trunk of her own car, drove her to a remote location, set her on fire, left her for dead and took off in her car. They did catch the guy, with the help of security cameras, and managed to save her life. She also was treated at Loyola U. Medical Center. They saved her life.
The experience did leave her scarred and disabled physically, but now she talks to other women about her experience, and how to come back from it. The story left a mark on me for two reasons, 1) what the dear lady went thru just to survive, and 2) the calibre of professionalism exhibited by the staff at Loyola.
I watched this program, See No Evil, on the ID Channel, while I was awaiting a liver transplant at Loyola.
When I finally got “the Call”, I had 100% faith in my transplant team. And this was at the height of the pandemic, last year.
I wanted to put in a good word for Loyola, I think they are underrated as far as medical institutions go.
I am sure the victim of this heinous crime will no doubt survive.
Last I checked, this particular episode is streaming on Comcast, it may be on other streaming services, as well.
>On Thursday night they serve a wicked pepper steak.
I’ll pass thank you
Maybe if I hadn’t eaten for 3 days…
Lesbian country western song?
I hope that you are doing very well with your new liver.
I am a survivor of domestic abuse. What I heard in the classes for victims of abuse was bad, but those angry lesbos were the worse! Really angry people. Stay away from the
bull dikes. My motto.
heck of a story of gratitude...
FWIW...The Hines V.A. in Hines Illinois uses professionals from Loyola Medical...I think it makes a difference.
A professional colleague and friend ended up as a roommate of mine. The stories she told...
WHAT? I thought ALL perpetrators of domestic violence were MEN!
I’ll speak for Laz here as I have witnessed his “choices” many times over the years - guilty as hell!
Lesbian fights are typically very violent. Black lesbians even more so.
This is impossible and obviously fake news.
Everyone knows that homosexuals are innately virtuous.
Clearly someone has an agenda to make them look bad.
Lesbians have the highest level of domestic violence.
