Former Mayoral candidate Dr. Willie Wilson is planning to post bond for 100 non-violent, jailed offenders offering them the opportunity to go home for Thanksgiving.
According to DNAinfo, Dr. Wilson is working with clergy members of the Chicago Baptist Institute on Chicago’s south side. Wilson will personally contribute $50,000 to the charitable endeavor, but is urging others to donate as well, as the project will cost approximately $100,000.
“We’re always talking about prison reform and we won’t go in our own pocket to help,” Wilson said.
Most of the non-violent offenders remain in jail, unable to post their inexpensive bonds. The organization is making efforts to identify those particular prisoners.
If you’d like to help with Wilson’s efforts, please visit the Chicago Baptist Institute’s website.

(Chicago) In the campaign for mayor, challenger Willie Wilson has written a personal check for a million dollars to his campaign.
Willie Wilson, who made millions with McDonald's franchises and is now selling vinyl gloves made in china, posed with his million dollar check and said the money will buy TV and radio commercials with this message, “It basically gonna show equality, compassion and friendliness.”
On the issues, Wilson said he wants to bring back Meigs Field, lower taxes and parking fees and get three out of four cops out of their patrol cars, walking the beat, “If I can walk or the citizens can walk on the bus in the cold out there, and the citizens are paying the police officers, they should be cold too.”
And Wilson said Mayor Emanuel owes him apology for challenging his nominating petitions. Rahm has dropped that challenge.
