Kankakee County State’s Attorney Jim Rowe wants federal prosecutors to pursue the death penalty against Darius Sullivan and Xandria Harris, who face felony charges in the hotel shooting that killed Bradley Police Sgt. Marlene Rittmanic and critically wounded her partner last week.
A Bradley police sergeant was “desperately pleading for her life” moments before a gunman fatally shot her using the officer’s own gun, Kankakee County prosecutors said Monday.
Kankakee County State’s Attorney Jim Rowe is seeking life sentences for Darius Sullivan, 25, and Xandria Harris, 26, who face a litany of felony charges in last week’s hotel shooting that killed Bradley Police Sgt. Marlene Rittmanic and critically wounded her partner. He is pushing for federal murder charges to be filed against the two and for federal prosecutors to pursue the death penalty.
Wednesday’s incident unfolded about 9:56 p.m., when Rittmanic and her partner, Officer Tyler Bailey, responded to a noise complaint regarding dogs barking in a parked car outside the Comfort Inn in the 1500 block of North State Highway 50, Rowe said during Harris’ bond hearing Monday.
When Bailey found out the car had belonged to Harris — who he knows as an acquaintance of Sullivan — the officer met Rittmanic in the hotel lobby and asked a clerk whether there were any rooms under the names of “Xandria Harris” or “Darius Sullivan,” Rowe said.

“...why are we, as a society, allowing women to get into these deadly circumstances?”
Agreed. Liberalism is misogyny. What they call equality is woman-hating.
I noticed that in the Chicago paper’s picture of Harris they used some happy picture of her they found somewhere instead of her booking photo. Wouldn’t want to make her look less than wholesome, would they.
I second that suggestion.
For one, they demand to be there.
