FOX LAKE, Ill. (AP) — An official tells The Associated Press that the wife and son of an Illinois police lieutenant who killed himself during a probe of a youth program he oversaw are two of the individuals with whom he exchanged some incriminating text messages.

Authorities investigating the September death of northern Illinois police Lt. Charles Gliniewicz released documents containing some of the thousands of pages of texts and Facebook messages he shared with others in the weeks before he died. The documents identified two of the recipients only as Individual #1 and Individual #2.

The official, who was briefed on the investigation, told The Associated Press’s Don Babwin Thursday that Individual #1 was Gliniewicz’s wife Melodie, who in one message suggests the couple may “need to hide the funds somehow.”

The official said Individual #2 was Gliniewicz’s son D.J., who the officer warns that not repaying money spent on personal items could mean he “will be visiting me in JAIL!!”

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to discuss the investigation publicly.

An attorney for the family has not responded to AP’s requests for comment Thursday.
