Patrol officer Courtney Miller, 32, is scheduled to appear Wednesday afternoon in Winnebago County Circuit Court. She was stopped by the Illinois State Police at 3:44 a.m. Feb. 6 in Rockford at Main Street (Route 2) and Auburn Street. No additional information about the arrest was available from the state police. Miller did not respond to a request for comment through her attorneys, Sreenan & Cain of Rockford. Marengo Police Chief Les Kottke confirmed Thursday that Miller was put on paid administrative leave Feb. 7 pending an investigation. He said the arrest occurred while the officer was off-duty and did not involve any city property. Miller has been with the department since December 2005. Both of the other law-enforcement officials recently charged with drunken driving have since lost their jobs. Troy Wise, a McHenry County prosecutor, was fired Feb. 15, a day after he crashed his car into a utility pole just east of Marengo. He had been an assistant state’s attorney since August 2006. Former McHenry County Sheriff’s Deputy Donald Anderson was fired after he drove a squad car into a tree Jan. 20. He still was on his probationary term of employment. Anderson was charged several days after the crash and after the Northwest Herald filed a Freedom of Information request seeking reports related to the crash. Sheriff’s police said that a Crystal Lake police officer who responded to the scene declined to charge Anderson with driving under the influence. Crystal Lake police said they took administrative steps to correct the situation but declined to comment on whether the officer was disciplined.
