WILLIAMSON CO., Ill.—In an article in the July-August 2014 edition, there was a mistake made of an identity of a Marion woman with a prominent last name.
Our sources providing information for the front page article about State Representative John E. Bradley of Marion grabbed up everything from every Bradley in the court system in Williamson County, and in the confusion to sort things out, we inadvertently tagged the wrong Amy Bradley as having a DUI in that issue.
Messages from the ex-Mrs. Bradley’s friends came in to us early this week—too late to get the correction/clarification into the current print version (August-September issue, on stands now)—that it was the wrong Amy Bradley in the DUI-mention, so we opted to put it here at the site in its own independent post, and here it is: the ex-Mrs. John E. Bradley has NOT had a DUI, in ANY location that we could find (and we researched it painstakingly over four days), and especially not Williamson County. The Amy Bradley that DID have a DUI in Williamson County in 2010 is NOT the ex-Mrs. State Representative. We extend our apologies to the real Amy for any grief this might’ve caused.
The Bradleys were in court this morning in Union County on custody matters, and our correspondent is there now. When she returns, we’ll try to bring you an update if there is one. In the meantime, the Page 3 article has more info about the current court battle, as well as information about the state rep’s brother, attorney Josh Bradley. DON’T MISS THIS ISSUE…in Marion you can pick it up at ROC One-Stop and Hunter’s Cove Barbershop on West DeYoung, and at Pit Road Racing downtown on the square (where there’s now free wifi), and in Johnston City at ROC One-Stop!
