Tornado Tears Through Justice Illinois
Description
A deadly tornado tore through Justice, Illinois, ripping roofs off apartment buildings and leaving residents like Lisa Muellman—whose home held five years of cherished memories—displaced and heartbroken. With wind speeds over 100 mph, the storm hit as many had already fled due to a prior derecho, sparing lives but leaving behind a mess of waterlogged belongings and uncertain futures. Muellman can barely afford storage for her essentials, forced to choose what to keep—like her books and turquoise cabinet. Officials are still assessing damage, with repair or demolition decisions pending insurance and permits. Meanwhile, tarps cover the buildings as cleanup begins, and the Red Cross and other agencies are stepping in to offer shelter, mental health support, and a lifeline for those still reeling.
