DUI No. 4: Joliet Man With Revoked Driver's License Fails To Show Up At Will County Courthouse
Will County Judge Chrystel Gavlin has issued a fail to appear warrant for Roberto Huizar who comes from the 500 block of Krakar Avenue.

JOLIET, IL — Roberto Huizar's troubles with the Joliet Police Department and the Will County judicial system just keep getting worse. Two weeks after Joliet police arrested the 53-year-old Huizar for his fourth DUI offense, Huizar was supposed to return to the Will County Courthouse this week for his appearance in front of Judge Chrystel Gavlin.
Instead, Huizar did not show up. As a result, Judge Gavlin has issued a no-bond arrest warrant. The warrant indicates that Huizar resides in the 500 block of Joliet's Krakar Avenue, over on the east side, in the Ridgewood Area.
According to last week's criminal complaint, the Will County State's Attorney's Office charged Huizar with aggravated driving under the influence and aggravated driving while license revoked.

On Jan. 6, Joliet police stopped Huizar as he drove a beige Ford Expedition on Jackson Street, "while under the influence of alcohol," the complaint indicated. Huizar's prior DUIs happened on Feb. 20, 2019, in Will County, on Christmas Day 2002 in Cook County and on June 15, 1993, in Will County and this latest arrest "being a fourth violation," prosecutors outlined.
In regard to Huizar's aggravated driving while license revoked charge, although the criminal complaint indicates this "is the defendant's 12 violation," Joliet Patch ran a story on Huizar in 2019 and the headline for that story read, "Joliet Man Gets 12th Driving While Suspended: Complaint."
