Attorney Brian Smith, representing Melodie Gliniewicz, listens to the pension board during a hearing for Melodie Gliniewicz on Tuesday, June 19, 2018 in Fox Lake. Gliniewicz is trying to get her husband's pension, worth about $1.5 million according to Village Administrator Anne Marrin, but the Village of Fox Lake is fighting for it to be withheld. Gliniewicz's husband was a Fox Lake police officer who was caught by Marrin misusing funds, whom he then allegedly talked about having murdered, in a situation that ended with the police officer taking his own life in an elaborately-staged suicide made to look like he was shot on duty chasing a suspect back in 2015.
