A rally at the Capitol Tuesday sought to pressure Justice David Prosser to take a leave of absence. “In any workplace that I have ever been in, if somebody is accused of such serious allegations – putting a fellow co-worker into a choke hold – they would be expected to be on leave immediately,” said Lisa Subeck is a Madison common council member, and President of NARAL Pro-Choice Wisconsin. “The alleged physical assault by Justice Prosser is completely unacceptable,” said former Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk. “Justice Prosser should step down while the investigation continues.”
The Dane County Sheriff’s Department and the Wisconsin Judicial Commission are investigating allegations that Prosser placed a choke hold on Justice Ann Walsh Bradley in her office last month. Prosser maintained that his hands came into contact with Bradley after she came at him during a heated discussion over collective bargaining. There’s been no indication that either justice will take any sort of leave while those investigations are conducted.
“Justice Prosser’s on the highest court in our state,” said Subeck. “We should expect him to do just what any of us would be expected to do in a similar situation.” Melissa Sargent, a Dane County Board Supervisor, also addressed the crowd of about 100 people, gathered on the Capitol’s State Street steps. “If behavior exhibited by justice Prosser had occurred in any other workplace, that person would have been placed on administrative leave or reassigned during that investigation.” Anthony Prince, a labor attorney and president of the Madison chapter of the National Lawyers Guild, said placing Prosser on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation is “not a radical proposal.”
The incident between Bradley and Prosser allegedly took place on the evening of June 13th in front of other Justices, as they met to discuss a court opinion on the Governor’s controversial collective bargaining law. That opinion was released the day after and invalidated a lower court ruling that had blocked the law from taking effect.
I can't BEGIN to tell you the recent scandals that involve 'Rats - that NO ONE is talking about. A male member *Snicker* on the Madison Common Council has been accused of RAPE - and they're not calling for HIS resignation or his head on a platter - because he's a 'Rat!
And in THIS case - the female DEMOCRAT judge ATTACKED Judge Prosser...there are a half-dozen witnesses to attest to that FACT!
Guilty until proven Innocent for Conservatives. As usual. *Rolleyes*
But seriously - this is just sickening. I'm calling for Judge Shirley Abrahamson to resign. If this stuff is going on in HER WI Supreme Court - SHE needs to step down toot sweet!
What a trashy person.
NARAL - what do you expect from those low lifes?

One great thing about being a Supreme Court justice is pretty much nobody can make you do something you don’t want to do. I imagine Prosser is sitting back having a good laugh at the protesters.
But the bitch has no problem with assaulting innocent babies. If my language is insulting and inflamitory, rest assured it is meant to be.
That would be true if there was an assault. There wasn't.
Prosser ought to go outside, on the steps of the building these women protesting at, and choke the life out of these bitches.
Trust me. I KNOW who they are. They make my skin crawl...
As always, my response to you is: Marry Me!
Let me know if I get this correct ..
First accounts of the accusers were that Prosser's hands went towards her neck after a heated verbal exchange, then he "may" have applied "slight pressure" and now it was a full choke-hold?
The drama is getting pretty thick over there!
Pound sand, commies.
Good luck with that.
No witnesses are apparently willing to come forward. What does that tell us?
“What does that tell us?”
All of the witnesses to this were on our side. They’re keeping their mouths shut in case ‘Barbara’ actually files assault charges. Which she won’t, because she knows she lied and what’s at stake.
Has there ever been a time when all of the SC judges of any state were called to testify in an assault case amongst themselves? Good Lord!
When Judge Prosser is cleared, I hope he sues them ALL!
Oh, he** yeah!!
LIKE! :)
They couldn't beat Prosser at the ballot box so now they'll try to destroy him personally. Democrats. It's how they roll.
National Lawyers Guild - an old Communist Party legal front. Still marxist and anti-American.
Love it when the red rats come out of their holes.
