DIXON – The Dixon City Council would like to see state charges on Rita Crundwell move “full steam ahead.”

Lee County State’s Attorney Anna Sacco-Miller asked Mayor Jim Burke to get input from city commissioners Tuesday in regard to state charges against the former comptroller, who was sentenced Feb. 14 to 19 years, 7 months in federal prison for stealing nearly $54 million from the city.

Crundwell is charged in Lee County with 60 counts of theft for stealing more than $11 million from the city since January 2010. If convicted, that sentence will run concurrent to the federal sentence.
