The suspect, who was accused of stabbing Julianne Mobley to death at the Damon Green Line station, reportedly was on electronic monitoring at the time of the attack.

Today, Cook County State's Attorney Eileen O'Neill-Burke weighed in, telling an audience at the City Club of Chicago, Illinois needs a permanent legislative solution to solve the, quote, failures of the electronic monitoring system.

According to Burke's office, Shavaz Campbell, who faces one count of first-degree murder, had been on electronic monitoring after a retail theft conviction.

Before that, he spent three years in jail for a stabbing.

Thank you.

I'm Dan Gibbons from the City Club of Chicago.

Welcome back to the City Club of Chicago, to so many of you.

Today's going to be a great discussion.

There's always a lot of attention these days on what comes out of Washington, D.C., what decisions are being made there, and, of course, what they mean for Chicago and But I think you all, and certainly we at City Club, always understood that Chicago's future isn't really determined in Washington or even in Springfield, although we need some assistance from them both.

They're one and the same.

And we're so happy to share this stage here with them.

Please join me in welcoming back to the City Club of Chicago our panelists for a great conversation.

You got to use a lot of common sense.

Did I hear you correctly? Are you going to be addressing the City Club of Chicago?

That's correct.

And that's where you're going to introduce this budget?

Palace intrigue, but it really does have the Dominguez campaign at an inflection point.

Uh, Dominguez was defiant in a statement this week, uh, right outside the, uh, City Club of Chicago event at Maggiano's where, uh, he categorically denied the allegations.

He, uh, blamed billionaire Michael Sacks and former political rival Aida Flores, uh, for surfacing these allegations.

Uh, I reached out to, uh, Aida Flores and Sacks.

David, Mayor Johnson spoke to the City Club of Chicago on Wednesday, and I hear you were there.

Some described it as a, a feisty speech filled with class conflict.

Tell me what stood out for you though.

We appreciate your continued support.

I stand here on behalf of our board, the board of the City Club of Chicago.

We have our board chair here, Omar Dagestani.

And... and board member Dana Poppish-Severinghouse.

If I could get your attention, we're going to get started.

As I mentioned, I'm Dan Gibbons from the City Club of Chicago, and it's great to have all of you in the room.

Naturally, we have a host of notable figures in the interest of time.

I'm going to ask certain groups to wave or stand up if you're so inclined and able without trying to mention each name because we'd be here all day.

So let's all continue to set a great example for these young leaders who are the future of this great city.

Thank you.

Today, as I mentioned, we welcome back to the City Club of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson.
