The former executive director of the Kane County (Ill.) 911 center has been sentenced to six months in jail after he pleaded guilty on Thursday to illegally accessing state criminal justice records. Steven Cordes, 44, had been director of QuadCom since 2000, but was indicted last October on four felony counts of official misconduct, and he then reportedly resigned and has been free on bail. On Thursday he agreed to plead guilty to one count of the charges, and the district attorney then dropped the three other charges. He will serve 180 days in jail, be put on 30 months probation, and also pay $4,661 in restitution to the center. According to court documents, Cordes ran a criminal history check on a man that his girlfriend’s daughter was dating, and three other people. Read more about the court action here.
