A 25-year-old man pleaded guilty Wednesday to committing a hate crime last summer at a Lake in the Hills bakery that was preparing to host what organizers called a family-friendly drag show. Joseph I. Collins of Alsip was immediately remanded to the McHenry County jail to serve the required 50% of an 180-day jail sentence. He also is required to serve 24 months of felony probation, perform 200 hours of public service and pay about $3,700 in fines and fees, and pay $2,300 in restitution, McHenry County Judge Tiffany Davis ordered.
