Illinois State University detective Anthony J. Hosey, 37 died after
losing control of his vehicle on Interstate 55 near Goodfarm Road,
he was pronounced dead at 10 p.m. Hosey was traveling north on the
interstate near milepost 224 when his 2004 Dodge Durango went off
the roadway at 9:55 p.m., and into the center median where it rolled
over several times. Hosey was ejected during the rollover and landed
in the northbound lane of traffic. Northbound motorists Kimberly L.
Clark, 24, Bloomington and Carol J. Shephardson, 56, Bolingbrook,
were unable to maneuver their vehicles to avoid striking Hosey.
Clark was driving a 2004 Dodge Stratus and Shephardson a 2003 Dodge
Caravan. Hosey was driving a 2004 Dodge Durango owned by the
university, and was not wearing his seat belt. witnesses noted the
Hosey vehicle apparently went off the right side of the interstate,
then came back across the highway and into the center median after
the driver apparently overcorrected.
Preliminary investigation indicated Hosey died of massive head and
neck trauma. Hosey was employed by the ISU Police Department. He was
traveling to his home in Plainfield where he and his wife lived.

Love it's just 1.5 years and I miss you. I'm moving on, alone
without you and I know you are with me. I know that I was "the one".
The others filled a void. I was the one you married; the one for
you; that is why you stayed; till the end. I will never have to go
thru anything worse than what I went thru on that cold, early
morning when they came. If that isn't a blessing, I don't know what
is. Love you with all my heart and soul and will forever be your
wife. Loving you still-Shannon

You loved many, and that's what your actions said. Too bad they still can't see. Rest, you ran enough to last a 90 year span.

Look at all you've done. Was it worth it? I doubt now that you can see with all knowing eyes that you would have chosen this path. Rest peacefully.

The easiest way for evil to triumph, is for good men to do
nothing....Edmund Burke. There are people who think that we do the
job to be heroes, or for personal gain. They could never understand
that it is about the person next to you.

It is abundantly clear that ALL of your fallen officers shared a
common thread - they were of the highest caliber yet modest and
unassuming in the approach of their duties. I believe that for as long
as such
men and women patrol your streets with such commitment and
professionalism, then you have much to be proud of. My heart goes out
to all the bereaved families, but be assured, there is someone in
"every" corner of the world who cares!

They will be blessed for all that they did for us while they were here
and now they can all watch over us.
