Steven R. Cordes, 43, of the 500 block of Ryan Lane in Dundee Township was indicted Friday by a Kane County grand jury of 18 counts of official misconduct, a Class 3 felony.
Following the indictment, an arrest warrant with a $25,000 bond was issued. On Wednesday, Cordes surrendered at the Illinois State Police District 2 office in Elgin, posted bond and was released, according to a release from the Kane County State's Attorney's office.
The indictment alleges that on multiple occasions in 2006, 2007 and 2008, Cordes accessed the state Law Enforcement Agencies Data System to gain information on four persons for his personal use.
Misuse of LEADS is a violation of the Illinois Criminal Identification Act and the Administrative Rules for Department of State Police Law Enforcement Agencies Data System. If convicted, Cordes faces up to five years in prison, the release said.
Cordes has been director of QuadCom, a 911 emergency dispatch center in northern Kane County, since 2000. QuadCom serves the Carpentersville, West Dundee, East Dundee, South Barrington and Sleepy Hollow police departments, as well as the Carpentersville and West Dundee fire departments, East Dundee Countryside Fire Protection District and Rutland-Dundee Fire Protection District.
He is scheduled to appear in court at 9 a.m. Nov. 14 before Associate Judge Allen Anderson in Room 217 of the Kane County Courthouse in St. Charles, the release said.
