The Week in Review

Week in Review: Election Day Preview, Tornado Recovery and Special Prosecutor Calls

It’s the final countdown — the Illinois primary election is, at long last, almost here.

Three leading candidates in a contentious Senate fight and a host of other races make their closing arguments as Tuesday fast approaches.

Kankakee County picks up the pieces after a tornado destroys at least 30 homes — and appears to have claimed a life.

Elected officials and animal rights leaders sound the alarm over the embattled pick to lead Chicago Animal Care and Control.

In the meantime, calls for a special prosecutor to investigate immigration agent misconduct during Midway Blitz draws the ire of the Cook County state’s attorney.

And questions over a U.S. citizen’s claim she was detained by ICE for 30 hours.
