Fugitive from Drunk Driving Charges

[MsMetal]

Ok, hopefully I can sum this up quickly. My husband whom I've been divorcing for almost 2 years because of his alcohol problem has been charged with 3 DUIs in 3 different towns/counties in Illinois. The first in Cook co./Chicago, second in Dupage co./Naperville and the 3rd in Kendall co. where he was held for 60 days in the county jail and released. All 3 arrests occured with a recent 6 month period.
He has now fled the state of IL to Louisiana to avoid 2 arrest warrants issued in the first two arrests - both = failure to appear...suprise suprise.
I have called just about every agency, arresting department, and prosecutor regarding this, and I get different information everytime whether either state can do anything. Crimestoppers has been notified also, I'm sure if he is not convicted properly - he's going to continue to drive drunk and kill someone.
What charges does he now face in IL? Is he now a felony fugitive? What agency would be interested in these facts? Will he recieve a default conviction in all these cases he is not defending himself for?
Thanks!

If warrants are issued and IL is willin gto extradite him from LA, then he can be arrested in LA on the warrants. However, unless any of these are felonies, it is doubtful that IL is going to go through the expense of transporting him back ... and even if it IS a felony, it will depend on how much IL wants him.

You are correct - he probably will be a danger to others before he is caught. However, other than giving the head's up to his local police department or parish sheriff's agency, there is not going to be much that can be done.
