Most of us have noticed that repeat felony offenders--even those with dead bodies on their record--seem to be back on the streets in Milwaukee very quickly.
There's a reason for that: they ARE. Very quickly. And they return to their habits of reckless driving, drugs, robbery, carjacking, ..........whatever. It's what they do.
Milwaukee County's District Attorney--and Milwaukee County judges--are the cause of this. And a few little old ladies have kept track.
Those numbers are terrible.
... judges gave lighter sentences than requested by prosecutors in 55% of the 335 reckless driving and police-fleeing cases they analyzed between May 1 and October 31, 2025....
.... The data reveals that probation was granted in 42% of all cases during the reporting period. Of the 214 cases involving repeat felons, 60 were still granted probation by judges....
... "Judges are the gatekeepers of what happens back into the community… A lot of cases result in probation for repeat felons… and so we challenged that — we don't want probation given anymore for a repeat felon," Lupo said....
Neither do we, or anyone else with common sense. But that "common sense" thing? It eliminates judges in Milwaukee County; they don't have common sense.
Carl Ashley goes for Mealy-Mouth-Bozo of the year with this response:
...Chief Judge Carl Ashley responded to the report in a statement.
"Judges must balance accountability, rehabilitation, deterrence, and public safety. Sentences are firm, fair, and guided by law - and meaningful change depends on an engaged community," Ashley said....
"Firm and fair"? Nobody thinks that, except you and the other blackrobe bozos.
(If you think that's bad, his daughter--also a sitting "judge"--is the laughingstock of the Milwaukee Police Department. Go ahead: just bring up her name in front of a cop. See what happens....)
