Kyley Willison, a former trustee of the Oakland Fire Protection District, appeared in court with his attorney to discuss restitution and set a date for a bench trial. The trial is scheduled for September 13, 2024, at 9:00 a.m. No plea deal was reached during this session.
On June 23, 2024, it was noted that Kyley Willison was due to appear in Coles County Circuit Court on June 24 for a status/plea hearing. Previously, he had waived his right to a jury trial leading to the vacation of the initial trial setting.
In related proceedings, Jerry Willison, another former trustee of the same district, has his next court appearance set for July 11, 2024.
The charges against both Kyley and Jerry Willison stem from their arrest on March 17, 2023. These charges were updated in the Coles County court docket following allegations of misapplication of funds within the fire protection district.
