BACKGROUND:
After Dennis went missing, a nine day search located him at Illinois Masonic Hospital. He was assaulted on the CTA on June 27th. He was placed in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit, was breathing on his own and somewhat coherent. He suffered a fractured skull, brain swelling, crushed eye socket and sub-dural hematoma. By the time he was located, he was awake and suffers from his brain injury.
