Verified detail sources (October 9, 2026, further review): The Wednesday Journal’s June 9, 2026 interview identifies Oak Park trustee Brian Straw with he/him and matches the Broadview Six prosecution. The unrelated Cleveland musician is excluded. Existing self-surrender, release and dismissal information remains unchanged. Source 1.
