State Police Launch Public Corruption Reporting Website

Have you witnessed public officials behaving badly? If so, you can now report suspected corruption directly to the Illinois State Police (ISP) with a new form.

The form was created by ISP’s Special Investigations Unit, which is tasked with focusing on public corruption and conducting investigations into allegations of criminal misconduct committed by elected officials and appointees at the state, county, and local levels.

According to the agency, part of the aim of the form is to give people one place to report suspected wrong doing, and to clear up confusion about what agency or entity to report allegations to. ISP will triage form submissions and determine the proper agency to investigate.

The online form, which is for suspected public corruption only, is available at: https://isp.illinois.gov/CriminalInvestigations/SIUComplaintDisclaimerForm
