Man wanted in Vernon Hills home invasion nabbed in Elgin

The man suspected of a 2005 home invasion and sexual assault is in Lake County jail today after being arrested by Elgin police over the weekend during a traffic stop.

Bond was set at $1 million Sunday for Rafael D. Gonzalez, 20. Gonzalez's next court appearance is Jan. 21.

Vernon Hills police officer Jim Levicki said Gonzalez was linked to the 2005 crime through physical evidence recovered from items in the residence and surrounding area.

A 48-year-old Vernon Hills woman told police a man armed with a knife broke into her house in the 700 block of Court of Spruce, confronted her as she slept and sexually assaulted her.

Gonzalez fled Lake County in 2005 before he could be arrested, Levicki said.

Gonzalez reportedly moved back to Mexico for about a year and then to Arizona, where he was currently residing.

He came back to Illinois to visit for the holidays, Levicki said.

Clearly an Irish immigrant. Or possibly Polish. I always get them mixed up.

“Clearly an Irish immigrant. Or possibly Polish. I always get them mixed up.”

The only way to make a true impact in all of this is at your local level.

Only the local pols care what you think - and even when they'd like to merely give lip service to you, a group of heated citizens knocking on doors, getting people to sign petitions, handing out literature, putting notices on cars in Home Depot/Lowe's parking lots where illegals seek work, making yard signs, sending letters to your local newspapers, calling local talk shows, make things happen.

Yes it takes lots of time but it is well worth it and in the communities where this has been tried are making noise across the country.

Even getting city councils pass ordinances enforcing business permits to only businesses who do not hire illegals works.

If your local councilman/woman won't assist you, vote him/her out of office. Believe me, they are beginning to notice and talk with one another across the country.

The know we're mad as hell about this and totally fed up at the crime, overcrowded schools, health centers, etc. and we've got the rule of law on our sides!

Illegals (especially from Mexico) pose the biggest danger to the average American: They rape, assault, and kill; they cause auto accidents on a regular basis; they bankrupt our hospitals; they destroy our schools and our neighborhoods; they take many of our jobs (with the complicity of a greedy employer) and drive down our wages. All in all, illegals are a net negative to America. Get rid of them.

It may very well come to that.
