Child support warrants are most often filed when a person neglects to pay child support bills, Cook County Sheriff's Office representatives said last week.
However, warrants may also be issued in other cases, such as when a person doesn't report to a police department to provide a required DNA sample or when he or she doesn't notify authorities of salary increases.
The following child support warrants were listed by the Cook County Sheriff's Office as of April 19:
New Lenox
The last known address listed for Jason Browe, 39, is in the 2600 block of Schooner Avenue in New Lenox, according to county records. He doesn't owe any child support payments but is wanted on a related warrant.
Chicago Heights
Demetrius Cantrell, 47, had $35,462.63 in child support payments racked up as of April 19. His last known address was in the 800 blk of MacArthur Drive in Chicago Heights.
Sheriff's deputies list Vincent Crossland, 48, as most recently living in the 1500 block of South Union Ave in Chicago Heights. He did not owe any child support payments as of April 19, but is wanted on a child support warrant.
Dover Ray Scott, 49, of the 1200 block of Division Street in Chicago Heights was listed April 19 as owing $80,806.00 in child support payments.
Oak Forest
Authorities have also listed Anthony Thrower, 37, of the 15800 block of South LeClaire in Oak Forest, as being wanted on a child support warrant. Thrower does not owe any child support payments, according to the sheriff's office.
If you have a tip on their whereabouts, call 708-865-4902 or email fugitive.warrants@cookcountyil.gov. The sheriff's department says you should not try to apprehend anyone yourself.

These numbers are taken from the states web site. Note I did not say there are more mothers that don't pay. I said the percentage of women who are ordered to pay is greater than that of fathers. This a fact not an opinion.
And again the term should be dead beat parent. Equal rights right. Or is that just for the good stuff. Joe C
