Yorkville Man Sentenced for Biting, Beating, Spitting on Officers

A 45-year-old Yorkville man was sentenced this week to 5 years in prison for beating, biting and spitting on officers from several area police departments after they responded to a domestic battery call.

Jeffery Brewick was charged with multiple counts of aggravated battery to a peace officer following the October 2012 incident.

According to a 2012 Chicago Tribune article, Brewick was charged after police responded to a home in the 400 block of Landmark Avenue.

According to the Beacon-News, officers from the Kendall County Sheriff’s department and Yorkville police responded to a home where a “frightened, crying child” let officers into the house, telling police someone upstairs was “breaking everything” and “hurting someone.”

When confronted by police, Brewick put up a struggle, repeatedly threatening to kill the officers, punching one deputy in the face and throwing another against a wall, Kendall County State’s Attorney Eric Weis told the Beacon.

Weis said Brewick also kicked another officer so hard in the knee that the injury required surgery, and punched, kicked, bit and spit on several officers.

In addition to his five-year sentence, Brewick also received two years of mandatory supervised release, the Beacon reported.
