Approval of eating
disorder treatment center
inches closer
The Northbrook Village
Board moved one step
closer toward approval of
a center for treatment of
adolescents with eating
disorders, opting to amend
an existing restrictive covenant
that would allow
for the use at a property
located at the intersection
of Lake Cook and Sanders
roads.
At the Northbrook Village
Board’s Tuesday,
Aug. 14 regular meeting,
the board agreed by voice
vote to place the approval
of an Eating Recovery
Center on the agenda for
the board’s next meeting.
The applicant, Crossroads
Northbrook, LLC, is also
the owner of the property.
The property on which
the applicant seeks to
bring the recovery center
to is subject to a restrictive
covenant, which prohibits
the proposed use on the
property. The applicant requested
the Village repeal
the covenant; however,
the board agreed to follow
a staff recommendation
to retain but amend
the restrictive covenant.
As such, the application,
including the amended
covenant, will be up for
approval at the next meeting,
currently scheduled
for Aug. 28.
Preliminary review of
the application began in
January. The proposal has
since undergone some
changes following feedback
from Village staff
and from residents (public
hearings on the proposed
center were held June 5,
June 19 and July 17).

THE GLENVIEW LANTERN
Man exposes genitalia to
pedestrian — fifth similar
incident since March
A man exposed his genitalia
to a woman who was
walking westbound in
the 1900 block of Willow
Road.
According to police,
the man was standing off
the sidewalk near bushes
and exposed himself as
the complainant passed
through the area at approximately
12:53 p.m.
Aug. 10. The woman left
the scene without further
problems.
The culprit was described
as a white,
170-pound male with
white hair between the
ages of 50-60. His height
was estimated at 5-foot-7
to 5-foot-10. He was wearing
a black baseball cap,
medium gray shirt, camouflage
shorts and gym
shoes.
This was the fifth similar
incident since March.
In mid-march, a jogger
reported that a 30- to
35-year-old male ran out
of the bushes west of the
path along Techny Basin,
sat on a bench, pulled his
pants down and began
masturbating. The individual
left the scene before
police arrived.
Less than a week after
that, a man wearing a dark
coat exposed himself to a
woman during the early
morning hours on March
24 in the 1600 block of
Greenwood Road. The
victim was sitting in her
parked car when the culprit
approached the vehicle
and opened his
jacket. When the victim
realized the man was otherwise
naked, she honked
her car horn until he ran
away.
He returned a few moments
later, but fled eastbound
through an apartment
complex when she
began to call the police.
Responders couldn’t locate
the culprit, who was
last seen wearing only a
dark jacket with a red-andwhite-plaid
pattern.

THE WINNETKA CURRENT
‘Johnny, no!’: Alleged
details of Northfield
murder disclosed in court
Based on the charges
facing the suspect of a
Northfield shooting, John
Gately III, of Winnetka, a
Cook County judge ruled
Thursday, Aug. 16, in bond
court that there will be no
bail set for the suspect.
Gately, 66, was charged
with one count of homicide
for the killing his
brother-in-law Stephen
Shapiro, 72, of Northfield,
and one count of attempted
homicide for trying to kill
Joan Shapiro, Stephen’s
wife and Gately’s sister, on
Monday, Aug. 13, at their
residence in the 200 block
of Latrobe Avenue.
In court, Assistant
State’s Attorney Andreana
Turano detailed the
shooting as well as its circumstances,
while a handcuffed
Gately stood at the
neighboring lectern in a
powder blue, two-piece
jail uniform. With wide
eyes behind his glasses,
he stared forward at Judge
Anjana M.J. Hansen, appearing
emotionless.
Gately, according to his
Chicago-based attorney
Michael J. Petro, will plead
not guilty to the crimes.
He is due back in court at
10:30 a.m. Aug. 30.
The night of the murder,
the Shapiros were at their
home “listening to meditation
after finishing a quiet
dinner,” Turano detailed,
when the doorbell rang.
Stephen answered the door
while Joan remained in the
living room.
It was Gately, she said.
“[Gately] asked
‘Where’s Joan?’ And after
Stephen Shapiro had told
him that she was not available,
[Gately] fired his gun
multiple times,” Turano
told the courtroom. “Stephen
Shapiro yelled out,
‘Johnny, no!’ Stephen Shapiro
lurched into the kitchen
area. Joan got up from
her chair and began to
hide behind another chair.
[Gately] came into the living
room, pointed his gun
directly at Joan and stated,
‘I’m going to kill you.’”
