"Joey Bag of Doughnuts" Retired Chicago Police Officer Joseph A. Battaglia pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct - receives court supervision - Battaglia accused of making threats against officials investigating the death of Fox Lake police Lt. Charles Joseph Gliniewicz for not calling the incident a suicide

"Joey Bag of Doughnuts" Retired Chicago Police Officer Joseph A. Battaglia accused of making threats against officials investigating the death of Fox Lake police Lt. Charles Joseph Gliniewicz pleaded guilty Thursday morning and was sentenced to court supervision.

Retired officer Joseph Battaglia pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct under a plea deal approved by Lake County judge Brian Hughes. The state agreed to drop an additional charge of telephone harassment, Assistant State's Attorney Vince Stavros said.

Under terms of the supervision, Battaglia, 54, of Oak Lawn, may not use drugs or alcohol, cannot possess weapons and must have no contact with the Lake County Major Crime Task Force and specifically its commander, George Filenko. Battaglia also must undergo a mental health evaluation, Stavros said.

Battaglia declined to comment Thursday.

Authorities accused Battaglia of calling the Lake County Coroner's office 10 days after Gliniewicz's death and threatening to harm investigators if they did not rule the death a suicide.

According to the Lake County Sheriff's office, Battaglia identified himself as a retired police officer in a Sept. 11 call to the coroner's office. Authorities said Battaglia made threats against "all of the task force members" and others investigating the case unless the Fox Lake officer's death was declared a suicide.
