DEFENDING THE DOE BOYS: Wisconsin taxpayers are picking up the tab to defend Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm, the man who started the infamous John Doe probe into conservatives. More than $1.2 million has been spent on legal bills for the prosecutors of the unconstitutional investigation.

It is outrageous that these thugs can run roughshod over the citizens of Wisconsin and then we have to pay for thhheir defense after they’ve been ruled out of line by a judge — twice. The law needs changing on this point. The loser should pay the bill.

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest jping list.

Why would government funds be used to pay the legal expenses of ROGUE, CRIMINAL government employees who are EXTREMELY WELL PAID and far from indigent. These well to do criminals do not need public defenders. Let them pay any expenses that stem from THEIR criminal activities.

AFAIK, any retirement, payout or other payment these people are due is forfeit to compensate the state for defending them. If I had my way, they’d do their retirement in prison.

“It is utterly clear that the special prosecutor has employed theories of law that do not exist in order to investigate citizens who were wholly innocent of any wrongdoing,” Justice Michael Gableman wrote in the majority opinion. “In other words, the special prosecutor was the instigator of a ‘perfect storm’ of wrongs.”

God Bless Justice Gableman!

I cannot WAIT for Chisholm’s Perp Walk! Hell, I’ll provide the popcorn and beer as we watch the parade! :)

So how much has it cost Wisconsin taxpayers to defend the rogue prosecutors

If I were a Wisconsin taxpayer, I certainly wouldn't spend a cent to defend these guys. I'd tell them to go fry ice...

We might be seeing the same thing in Waco, TX once the civil suits start piling up against the DA for wrongful arrest and death.

The wheels of justice turn slow but they do turn.
