COLLINSVILLE, IL � Lieutenant Parsons, Interim District 11 Commander, announced today that the Illinois State Police will conduct Roadside Safety Checks (R.S.C) in the Metro-East area, St. Clair, Madison, Monroe, Bond, and Clinton counties, during the month of January.
A roadside safety check is an effective tool for generating voluntary compliance by the motoring public. The potential to come across these checks encourages motorists to arrange designated drivers, keep their consumption of alcohol within the allowable limits, or not travel in a motor vehicle after drinking.
Alcohol and drug impairment is a significant factor in over 40 percent of all fatal motor vehicle crashes in Illinois. Safety checks are designed to keep our roads safe by taking dangerous DUI offenders off the road.
Officers working the R.S.C. will also be watchful for drivers who are operating vehicles in an unsafe manner, driving with a suspended or revoked driver�s license, and transporting open alcoholic beverages.
This Roadside Safety Check is funded through a grant from the United States Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The grant is administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Traffic Safety.

This investigation is a top priority for the ISP, and all necessary resources are being utilized to expedite its completion.

An autopsy conducted this morning by Sangamon County Coroner Susan Boone's office indicates the cause of death to be "a contact gunshot wound to the chest, apparently self-inflicted." While the cause of death has been determined by the autopsy, the manner of death, which is still unknown will be determined at a coroner's inquest which is yet to be scheduled. Additional investigative work continues which includes, but is not limited to, additional interviews, ballistics examination, computer evidence recovery, and fingerprint and telephone analyses. Upon completion, the investigative case file will be provided to the coroner for use in the inquest process.

Until the coroner's inquest has determined the manner of death and the case is closed, no additional information regarding the investigation will be made available.

. The Davlin family remains in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
