The Peoria County State's Attorney's office says it has received a request from 18th District Congressional Democratic Candidate Colleen Callahan to investigate her Republican opponent Aaron Schock.

The request revolves around whether Schock committed official misconduct when he postdated documents for his parents as a notary public.

The Schock family did not benefit from backdating the documents. However, official misconduct is a misdemeanor under state law.

The state's attorney's office says due to the time sensitive nature of the manner, it is reviewing Schocks' work as a notary and they could have the results next week.
