➡️ 30 May 2014: A police report was taken for a request to stand by. The names involved are [redacted] from the report. Just after 4 pm Crystal Lake police were called to the 94 Dole Ave. house on a request to stand by. In the report, a female requested a stand by from police while her roommate moved out and also requested she be served with an order of protection. Police said they stood by upon arrival while the [redacted] individual completely moved out and was advised of a pending order of protection that needed to be served. She agreed to wait until the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office arrived to serve her. Police said both individuals were given a domestic waiver and rights of victims form.

➡️ 18 May 2015: A police report containing details of calls made referencing an incident at 94 Dole Ave. A call was made to police at 1:20 p.m. by a complainant who gave police information on two drivers that reportedly had suspended licenses. According to the report, the two people had court appearances set for 9 am in Woodstock, and were believed to be home with a juvenile inside a dark green Mitsubishi. In the report the complainant said the individuals also didn’t have insurance. The complainant had custody of one of the unnamed individual’s children, according to the report. An officer reported calling and speaking to the complainant just before 2 pm that day.

➡️ 17 December 2017: A woman [redacted], was visiting McHenry County for the holidays. A male, [redacted] was incarcerated at the McHenry County Jail and another woman, [redacted] said she believed the visitor was staying at the male’s apartment without his permission while he was in custody. The woman said she planned to go to the apartment to get the apartment keys from the visitor. The woman came in and began swearing at the visitor in front of her 5-year-old daughter and then attacked the woman while trying to get the keys. She knocked her onto a nearby couch and began punching her in the face. The woman then left the apartment with the keys. The victim told police she did not wish to press charges and simply wanted the keys back.

➡️ 17 January 2018: Crystal Lake police assisted the Northlake Police Department regarding a person [redacted] not paying for a hotel stay. According to police reports, officers responded to 94 Dole Ave. to talk to the individual about this report but did not make contact.

➡️ 16 February 2018: A woman [redacted] called to report her roommate and friend missing. According to police reports, she said a friend of his recently died, and he’d become depressed and went into the city of Chicago on the train. She said he usually checks in with her but his cell phone was off, and she could not reach him. She noted the man had tattoos and piercings all over his face. She also said she called detox centers and hospitals throughout the Chicago area to try to locate her friend. Police checked in later and the woman told police she’d received a phone call from her friend on 19 February.

➡️ Aug. 5, 2018: According to police reports, officers responded to another report of theft of prescription drugs. Authorities said they responded and met with two people who appeared to be on some sort of narcotic medication. They told police the prescription pills were taken from a backpack while they were walking around the neighborhood. The woman told police the last thing she remembered she was walking around a neighborhood, and then she woke up in her bed. A neighbor found her backpack and the woman found her pills in the backpack, but said some were missing. The officer later met with the male involved in this report and gave him the reference number for the report. He noted the man’s demeanor changed and also noted that due to experience dealing with prescription pill theft reports, people need a report number to have a prescription renewed, adding that he could have sold the medication and reported it stolen.

➡️ Sept. 5, 2018: Police were called after the family’s boxer, Lucy, was reported to be running loose. According to police reports, officers responded and found JoAnn working in the yard and Lucy nearby. She told police that neighbors, who she believed did not like Lucy, had called to report the incident.

➡️ Sept. 20, 2018: According to police reports, authorities were again called to 94 Dole Ave. to check on the well-being of the children after receiving a report that power had been out and the home was in a dilapidated state. Police arrived and found the grass was about two feet long, the paint was peeling off the house and the windows seemed to be falling apart. An officer spoke with a woman, whose name has been redacted, who said power had been out for a while. Police asked to enter, but she did not allow them in. They asked to check on the children and both boys appeared to be happy and healthy, according to police. They asked where a man, whose name is redacted, was, and she said he was at work. She also told police she was trying to find another place to live and had been staying elsewhere when possible. The officer told the woman they’d be contacting DCFS and the woman said they’d been out to the house a couple months ago. Police called DCFS and they said they would not respond to check on the house due to a utility issue.

➡️ Dec. 18, 2018: Just before 8 a.m., the Crystal Lake Police Department was called to 94 Dole Ave. in reference to a burglary. According to police reports, officers met JoAnn in the Taco Bell parking lot, and she told them an individual whose name has been redacted from the report had entered the Dole Ave. home, demanded money and stolen her cell phone and prescription pills. Authorities went back to the home to check for Cunningham if the person, a male, was at the home, and he was not. She told police he lived there but had not been home in a week. Police noticed the home in severe disrepair: the kitchen had areas where there was just sub flooring and were jagged and broken off; the ceiling had water damage, was peeling and open to piping in an area; a door was covered in a brown substance; and in the bedroom where Cunningham’s young children slept, there was an open window and an overwhelming smell of feces, according to the police report. Her children were running around. One of the boys just had a pull-up on and an officer noticed a bruise on his leg. When asked about it, JoAnn said it came from their 60-pound boxer, Lucy. Cunningham was arrested for driving while her license was suspended and authorities installed car seats into their squad car and brought JoAnn and her children to the police department. Another officer called to the home noted the residence was not adequate for two young children and that there was dog urine and feces throughout the home. Police spoke with a male, whose name has been redacted, around 8:30 a.m. that same morning. He told police he left the home after getting in a fight over another person, whose name has also been redacted, trying to steal his medication. The other person began screaming at him, he said, and using profanities. He then emptied his pockets and allowed authorities to pat him down to check to see if he had the missing phone or prescription pills. Police found a prescription made out to the individual but not the alleged missing medication.

We, the family that lovingly cared for Andrew (AJ) during the first 18 months of his life and were then allowed to be in his life for another 26 months until the parents abruptly prevented us from having any further contact with him, want everyone to know that AJ was loved by us with all our hearts.

While we had him in our lives, he had a happy, fun-loving life. This smart little boy loved having books read to him, doing puzzles, his Thomas the Train, playing with his fire trucks, bulldozers, cement mixer and Ninja Turtles. He was very curious and always wanted to learn about everything.

He was, and will always be, our loving and caring little boy. With his brave short life, AJ made the ultimate sacrifice to save his younger brother and unborn sibling. His life shall not be in vain. AJ will always be our little superhero.

We want to thank the Crystal Lake Police and surrounding Police Departments, the FBI, all other first responders, and our community at large. We appreciate all of the kindness, prayers, love, and compassion shown by all.

Joann Cunningham and Andrew Freund have given up custody of Aj’s younger brother Parker!

Prosecutors filed a petition seeking permanent measures to terminate Cunninghams and Freund’s parental rights.

DCFS Jassen Strokosch stated:  “If the parents are found unfit, their child could be moved to another home longterm or placed for adoption. This process could take several months.”  If you remember in the murderers first court appearance, the judge stated that these 2 are to have NO contact with anyone under the age of 17.

Parker was taken from their care the day AJ was reported missing and is in the care of Illinois department of children  and family services!  Illinois DCFS is under scrutiny for over looking the doctors report about AJ being hit with a belt by his mother.

Cunningham is also pregnant with another child and due in about 2 months.  I’m assuming that child will go immediately into DCSF’s care.

AJ’s murderers showed up in court today! Also there also were 12 people from the community to show support for AJ!

The mother is charged with five counts of murder, four counts of aggravated battery, two counts of aggravated domestic battery, and one count of failure to report a missing child or child death. The judge appointed her a public defender because she has not worked for the past 2 years.

The father who is charged with five counts of murder, two counts of aggravated battery, one count of aggravated domestic battery, two counts of concealing a homicide, and one count of failure to report a missing child or child death. He said he wanted more time to decide on getting his own attorney, or being assigned a public defender. The judge gave him until May 3 to make his decision.

The next preliminary hearing will be 10 May for these so called ‘parents’. More than likely to enter their plea in court. You can bet they will plea not guilty of murdering AJ, and waste the state’s money on a trial!

The mother is 7 months pregnant! I assume that child will go to another family member.

“AJ” Freund reported being hit with a belt, the officials told a legislative panel.

A caseworker last visited freund’s in December, but blamed bruising on AJ to the dog. The case was closed in January despite a note in his file that indicated a “doctor was concerned because Andrew said, ‘Maybe someone hit me with a belt. Maybe Mommy didn’t mean to hurt me.'”

Of course DCFS claims that piece of this case was missing!  The agents who worked on this case are on administrative duty and not working on family cases.

Rep. Sara Feigenholtz said the state of Illinois is doing a “lousy job” at recruiting foster parents to care for abused children removed from their biological homes. She blamed it in part on too great a focus on what otherwise is a laudable goal of reuniting biological families when possible. But social services for troubled families are lacking, she said.

Here is a link to the DCFS report released DCFS report

AJ is the 3rd child to die under the agency’s watch since February.

The parents are due in court today!

And officer was assigned a check on the well-being of the children residing at 94 Dole Avenue. A concerned citizen had reported they believe the house had no power for weeks and the house appears to be in a dilapidated state.

Upon the officers arrival they could see the grass at the residence had been about 2 feet long and the paint was filling up the house. The windows also seem to be falling apart. They went to the front door which had their electric meter near it they could see the meter did not appear to be running. They knocked on the front door and met with Joann. The officer voiced their concerns to her and she admitted the power had been off for a while but could not tell them exactly how long. She stated she is currently looking for a new resident and has tried staying elsewhere when she can. The officers asked Joann where she was staying and she stated last Sunday she stayed at the best Western in Woodstock.

The officers asked if they could step inside to check the living conditions and she denied their request. One of the children was with her and appeared to be healthy and happy. The officer asked if they could see the other child to see if he was OK. She stated he was in bed. The office informed her if they could see the child to confirm he was good they could relay that to DCF as if they were called. She then went and got the second child. He also appeared to be healthy and happy. The officers asked if she knew when the power will be turned back on and she stated she did not know. The officers asked if Andrew was home and she told them he was at work. The officers informed Joann of their concerns and that they would be contacting DCFS. She stated she understood and that they were at her house a few months ago.

The officers returned to headquarters and the officer assisting contacted DCFS. He was informed by DCFS that they would not do a check for utility issues as a resident without power alone does not warrant a DCFS investigation.

The officer was supposed to be contacted by someone from DCFS to get clarification but as of 0945 hours on 20 September 2018 she had not heard back.

Officer explained that they don’t have a leash law but at the same time she needs to be in control of Lucy which the officer believed she was. The officer explained to make sure she gets the leash that Lucy broke the day before fixed so that the neighbors aren’t calling on her because there are chances that animal control would need to get involved.
