CHICAGO (STMW) – A Northwest Side registered sex offender was ordered held on $25,000 bond Sunday after police found the so-called date rape drug GHB on him after he left the scene of a Saturday night accident.

On Sunday, Judge Israel Desierto ordered Abidin Redzeposki held on $25,000 bond, according to a Cook County Criminal Court clerk. Redzeposki is scheduled to appear for a preliminary hearing Dec. 14 at North Felony Court (Br. 42), according to the clerk.

Redzeposki, 31, of the 1900 block of Humboldt Avenue, was charged with possession of methamphetamine, manufacture/delivery of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, leaving the scene of an accident and driving on a suspended driver’s license, police said. He was also cited with no insurance, failure to keep in lanes and failure to reduce speed, police said.

Redzeposki, a registered sex offender, was arrested at 2958 N. Southport Ave. at 6:40 p.m. Saturday after he returned to the scene of a hit-and-run accident, according to a police report.

After he was arrested, police found a clear plastic straw in his left front pants pocket, and he told police that he had used the straw to snort cocaine the previous night, the report said.

The report said the vehicle he was driving was searched and police found several drug paraphernalia items, including a scale and empty zipper bags, a plastic straw, three plastic zipper bags containing a white crystalline substance suspected of being crystal methamphetamine, which had a street value of $1,056 and a clear plastic bottle containing two ounces of clear liquid suspected of being the so-called date rape drug GHB with a street value of $400.

He admitted he fled the scene because his license was suspended and he had no valid insurance, according to the police report. No one was injured in the hit-and-run.

Belmont Area detectives are investigating.

    What a moron, and what do people think someone would post when they read this garbage from garbage people. Always you can see a severe drug abuser. Does this guy have a job? Id like to know what would hire this thing if he does.

    I’m sure it was just sleeping medicine.. poor little fella

  • Roberta Waker

    Only #25,000 bond? He was involved in an accident with no insurance, no license, drugs, and he’s a registered sex offender. He should be put away forever as a repeat offender, especially as a sexual predator. Why are they being so lenient with him? Throw the book at him and put him away.

    No one was injured.

    Yeah, this is a clear cut example of someone who needs to be sterilized, castrated and locked up.

    1. I don’t ever want him to procreate. Nothing good can come out of it.
    2. He’s clearly a sexual deviant and needs to be separated from what drives his urges.
    3. Put him away and throw away the key. He’s a public menace and shouldn’t be allowed to roam.

    What right to you have to judge…only god can do that….do you know the whole story of this young man’s life…I bet not….until you walk in another shoes, you dont know. This action does not define his character just a failed system that has not given him the help he has needed to lead a productive life. What about the other people involved and how it has affected them. Count your lucky stars that your life is not like this. By the way….once he gets helped I would be HAPPY to hire him…he is quite talented.

    • David

      Lucky Mom – would like to hear what it is you “know” about him that makes him worth anyone’s time. Was a manipulative self centered addict who turned on anyone who has been there for him and has gotten way too many second chances. Hope he gets what he deserves. Do u really think some sex offender walking around with THE DATE RAPE DRUG deserves a slap on the hand, a year in prison if that, and back on the streets? Been a long time but some things obviously will never change.

  • J. Shrek

    Put away for life???? Ms. Waker what gives you the right to pass such monumental judgment on a man and situation that you have very limited information about? Be ashamed, fanatics like you are one of the fundemental flaws in our modern society. Also, I don’t know what priveledge you come from, but $25,000 is a lot of money. JUDGE NOT……..

  • lucky mom

    Mr. David,
    In response to your questions….I beleive we all deserve as many chances as it takes to get it right. In my opinion he did nothing malicius to hurt anyone…made a mistake…that is what makes us human, we make mistakes, learn, make more mistakes and learn some more. As for the charges, I did my research, it is not as black and white as you would like to present it. Maybe this is more a reflection of how you view yourself than him. Enough said.

    • Mr. Edwards

      Lucky Mom, they have a taped confession of this guy admitting to raping an underage boy using the “date rape drug.” Even more, this guy video taped that whole incident and then showed it to the boy after he regained consciousness. Would you like to be the one to tell that young boy’s parents that this guy simply, “made a mistake?” Enough said.
