By Tom Zimmerman May 13, 2026 | 5:00 AM
      Illinois State Representative Adam Niemerg of Dieterich is calling on the Illinois Director of Corrections to provide an immediate tour of the Robinson and Lawrenceville Correctional Facilities after a reported overdose and death of an inmate in Robinson over the weekend.
      Niemerg once again is calling for changes to the DOC’s policies which allow for drugs to enter into facilities.
      Niemerg said the situation is not acceptable when people in custody of the State of Illinois continue to die.  Niemberg’s district in part covers area residents in Illinois’ Lawrence and Richland counties.
