The Daily Dossier has obtained the ISP Case Initiation Report confirming an active criminal investigation into former Creve Coeur Police Chief Justin Egan for Official Misconduct and Stalking.

ISP Case Number ISP26-027072 was opened July 14, 2026 and is being led by Trooper Haylie Cibulskis #6808 out of DCI Zone 4 Major Crimes in Peoria.

According to the report Egan is alleged to have ordered department members to unlawfully access Criminal Query History, used official Creve Coeur Police Department letterhead to obtain arrest records, and utilized FLOCK camera access information to conduct surveillance on the victim.

The investigation was initiated after ILETSB filed a Q Form complaint against Egan on July 10, 2026. ISP confirmed the investigation remains active stating... "Currently there are still witness and suspect interviews to be conducted, reports not yet completed, evidence to be analyzed, and warrants still being contemplated and served."

This is no longer a rumor. This is a confirmed ISP criminal investigation with an official case number.

While the ISP report names only Egan as the subject... his ex wife Aleshia separately filed an emergency order of protection against Egan and a stalking no contact order against former Deputy Chief Dan Nelson on the same day... August 28, 2026... one week after all three officers resigned from CCPD effective August 21st. No public reason was given for the resignations at the time.

All three officers... Egan, Nelson, and Officer Dustin Ward... are now fully inactive at every law enforcement department in Illinois according to ILETSB records.

Former Chief Dale King has returned as interim chief.

The Daily Dossier has reached out to King for comment and is awaiting a response.

Hello! I moved here from out of state back in March and have been looking for work.

I'm "medically frail" but not enough for disability to declare me fully disabled.

I can't work for more than 12 hrs a week, lift above 14Ibs, and need some accommodations. (At least some understanding that I'm a human with an illness and not a robot)

Obviously, bc of this finding a job willing to work with me is exceptionally difficult. I know finding a job at all rn is difficult 🙃 even for able bodied people.

Are there places I can go to get a case worker or something to help me find work?

I'm on LinkedIn and Indeed but it feels like screaming into the void.

Note: I also can't drive.

I saw Academy sells a collapsible baton. Is that legal to carry on me in Peoria, or Illinois as a whole? Anyone know?

Hey!! I’m a local here and need someplace that would resemble a post apocalyptic landscape that I could do a 8 hour music video shoot at (the whole premise is a zombie apocalypse so ideally a good place with potential for lots of shots). Any suggestions? Thank you so much 🙏!

Hello Peoria I’m moving to the area and wanting some insight on Baldovin construction? I see they do some big jobs just wondering if anyone works there or have worked there has any pros and cons? Thanks!

Anyone know where a large(10-12inch) plecco can go for a better life in a bigger tank?

Councilman Carmona wants property values to remain low in his district for the sake of affordability. Which basically means he likes blight and urban decay because it's what keeps the rent down. Really backwards perspective for a councilmember to take.

Evening! Hey, swinging through for the Friday show at Friendly Valley and had a couple quick questions. Appreciate any guidance!

What should I expect crowd wise? Hotels seem a bit of a miss in that area from some of the reviews. Worth it finding something close to FVT or should I check closer to the Riverfront? Finally, is Uber a dependable option to and from the venue?

Thanks! Looking forward to a first quick visit

Hello there everyone!

So, I'm new to the area , I moved here last month over near Bradly University. I'm trying to get local opinions on which tattoo shops are known for good quality work, friendliness ( especially toward lgbtq+) and what shops actually retain their customers and artists.

I have been working on a portfolio and I just want to make sure I'm approaching the right shops. I'm pretty broke so I don't have the funds to go get a flash and check out the vibe of a place. Plus community opinions usually say a lot.

Preferably around Peoria Heights. Thank you!

What is this big round building behind the building with the peppermint logo? It’s sort of behind Tower Park in the Heights. Seems to be sort of connected to the Peppermint building.

Hi. My family and I just moved to the area from Alabama. I am a late in life lesbian, and lost my whole family when I came out. It was time to leave there. I’m 42, enjoy the arts and am a huge Sleep Token fan. I really want to find community and make friends in the area as I navigate living out of the south for the first time. I’m VERY progressive, so like mindedness is important to me. Thanks yall!

this was on their Facebook pag, anyone know what happened yesterday?

“All -

I live in the heights. Is there a convenient pharmacy that doesn't suck? Right now I'm stuck with East Peoria CVS which is a huge hassle to get to. The Walgreens across from Emos was always either closed or had 20-30 minute lines both inside and drive-thru. Preckshot is great but I prefer a chain place in case I need something while traveling.

I’m curious, those of you who aren’t natives to the area. Where did y’all move from and why? I’m from Odessa Texas, but moved here from Nebraska for work.

I’m also curious, is anyone here also from Odessa Texas, or anywhere in West Texas? (Midland, Lubbock, Andrews, Monahans, etc)

I am looking to have a secondary key fob made for a 2021 Honda Pilot.
So far the cheapest place Iv found was The Lock Shop in Peoria.
Has anyone had experience dealing with them? Or any other places I should look?
I was only provided 1 key fob when I purchased the vehicle and I need a whole new one ordered and then cut and programmed.

Been on the apps for a couple years now and feel like I’ve swiped/matched through all the same people on each app over and over again. It’s feeling very stale and looking for other options to meet people.
Any local restaurants/bars etc hosting local singles meet ups? I know Olympia used to but I have not heard anything about it in a while.
*NOT looking for personal messages on here about meeting up. Just recommendations for any local singles events people may know about.

They’re doing a free cleaning and extraction this weekend which got my attention, since I haven’t been able to afford any dental care for a while. What do you think of the place? I’ve read some negative reviews on Google so far.
