The latest disgrace from Milwaukee.

This story made 48 hours and a couple other national news programs when it happened a couple years back. The storyline was poor black man was beat up by a group of Milwaukee police officers for crashing their party, who said he stole a badge.

Egged on by a local media that has only played the anti-cop angle, he now intends to sue -- from prison! This is a guy who has a history of drug dealing, wife beating, and ultimately landed in jail this time for beating his mother. Did I mention his vocation as a male stripper before the incident?

And all it will take, according to his lawyers, is $30 million to get the good old Frank back.

"Whatever they took from me I want back"

Yea, sure, all 30 million of it.

I dont doubt that he had his a$$ kicked by the police. What is terrible about it is this:

I understand about the taxpayers. I respect the taxpayers ... But the city of Milwaukee, (Mayor) Tom Barrett, he's responsible.

That is a lot of money out of my pocket, not that this city isnt broke enough.

He said he continues to suffer physical and mental problems from the beating.

Not sure about physical (except for "getting physical") but for certain he had mental problems BEFORE the beating.

"I am not the same Frank Jude Jr. Whatever they took from me I want back."

The ability and inclination to beat women?

What, you figure that the $30M, in the absence of what you "lost", will at least allow you to hire professionals to do the beatings for you, while you watch? Hope your lawyers tick you off, and become your next victims.
