FBI Investigates Water in Crestwood
Written by DJ Special Blend from Chicago on April 29, 2009
CRESTWOOD, IL – It looks like the Village of Crestwood has been knowingly supplying it’s residents contaminated water for years.
Resident Tricia Krause found documents showing that from 1987 to 2007 Crestwood sold consumers far more water than it was getting from the lake. This “mystery water” amounted to hundreds of millions of gallons.
Illinois EPA director Doug Scott told CBS 2 that Crestwood’s longtime water system engineer, Frank Scaccia, has now admitted that he and other village officials lied. Every drop of the “mystery water” was, in fact, pumped from a contaminated well.
What’s up with that? That gets me wondering about the condition of the water in Schaumburg, or anywhere for cryin’ out loud.
Hopefully this did not cause any type of illness for any of the poor residents of Crestwood.
Mayor Robert Stranczek told angry residents that Illinois EPA’s Scott said no one was ever in danger.
When asked if someone could have gotten sick from the water, Scott said, “It’s possible.”
In fact, I recall drinking a glass of water over my people’s house in the fall of 1988, and every since then I’ve been having problems with “my neck… my back… my neck and my back!” (That was my imitation of the crackhead Ezal from the movie Friday when he pretended to fall at the corner store)
On the real though, that’s some deep stuff. We cain’t trust the water?
