On October 6, 2023, Arian Clark, formerly of Danville, Illinois, was sentenced to seven years in the Illinois Department of Corrections. Upon his release from prison, Clark will be required to serve six months of mandatory supervised release. After a one-day trial on July 18, 2023, a Vermilion County Jury found Clark guilty of Aggravated Driving While License Revoked. Evidence was presented to the Jury that on August 2, 2021 Clark was the driver of a vehicle that caused a rear-end collision on Poland Road in Danville. Clark initially exchanged insurance information with the victim, but tried to convince them not to call the police to report the accident. While the victim was calling 911, Clark left the scene before officers arrived. Officers from the Danville Police Department conducted an investigation and issued a citation to Clark for driving while his license was revoked. At a sentencing hearing on October 6, 2023, the Honorable Derek Girton, who also presided over the Jury Trial, delivered the sentence. Vermilion County State’s Attorney Jacqueline Lacy stated, “Repeat offenders will be held accountable for their actions.”
