Court documents filed Tuesday in Tazewell County allege a Friday shooting at a rural Mackinaw residence was a murder-for-hire plot, and three teens have been charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder.
Sage Raeuber, 19, Nathaniel Maloney, 18, and Andre Street, 17, have all been charged as adults in the death of Rebecca Bolin, 51, and the shooting of Douglas Bolin, 52. Tazewell County State’s Attorney Stewart Umholtz said his office also will petition to have a case against a 15-year-old girl transferred to adult court. All four suspects remain in custody.
According to probable cause affidavits against the three defendants, someone offered to pay Raeuber, Maloney and Street to kill the Bolins. The identity of the individual was redacted in copies provided to WCBU.
Rebecca Bolin died at the scene. Tazewell County Coroner Charles Hanley has withheld her cause of death, although the probable cause affidavits indicate she suffered multiple gunshot wounds. Douglas Bolin was originally taken to a Peoria hospital in critical condition and has since been released.
The incident occurred at about 9:15 p.m. Friday at the Bolins’ residence on American Legion Road.
