The Lake County Sheriff’s Office Special Investigations Group (SIG), a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) funded task force, concluded an investigation which led to the arrest of a Vernon Hills man who was selling guns and drugs.
Members of SIG conducted an investigation after receiving information Dentri J. Henning, 34, of the 300 block of Farmingdale Circle, Vernon Hills, was selling firearms and drugs. During their investigation, members of SIG seized a semi-automatic pistol and more than 30 grams of cocaine.
On March 7, 2024, members of SIG arrested Henning at his residence. After reviewing the facts and circumstances of the investigation, the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office approved the following charges:
Armed Habitual Criminal (Class X Felony)
Two counts of Unlawful Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver (Class X Felonies)
Two Counts of Unlawful Possession of a Controlled Substance (Class 1 Felonies)
Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by a Felon (Class 2 Felony)
Three counts of Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon (Class 2 Felonies)
Two counts of Unlawful Sale of a Firearm (Class 4 Felony)
Sheriff John D. Idleburg said, “Yet again, our Special Investigations Group has worked diligently to apprehend someone trafficking guns and drugs in our community. I am proud of everything they do to keep guns out of the wrong hands and drugs out of our community.”
Henning remains held in the Lake County Jail pending an initial court hearing this morning.
All defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
