Waupun prison inmate hangs self in cell Tue, 13 May 2008 17:39:00 CST
WAUPUN An inmate scheduled for release from prison this summer was found hanging in his cell Tuesday morning by staff at Waupun Correctional Institution. The inmate, Ahmad Kennebrew, 30, apparently attempted to hang himself with a bed sheet that he tied to a bar on the wall of his cell, said Department of Corrections spokesman John Dipko. Staff entered the cell around 8:45 a.m. and stabilized Kennebrew, providing emergency life-saving efforts until emergency responders arrived at the prison. Kennebrew was transported to Waupun Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead. Kennebrew had been at WCI only five days. According to Dipko, the Milwaukee man entered the prison system in November 2006 on revocation for violating terms of his community supervision. His active cases include 2001 convictions in Milwaukee County for substantial battery and prisoner-throwing/expelling a bodily substance. Kennebrew was scheduled to be released from prison in August.

Sex offender to serve prison term in child porn case Tue, 13 May 2008 17:34:00 CST
A registered sex offender will spend time in prison for viewing child pornography while on probation for a 2003 sexual assault conviction. Fond du Lac County Circuit Court Judge Robert Wirtz handed down a three-year prison sentence to Matthew J. Pflum, N5268 Summit Court, during a hearing Tuesday in Fond du Lac County Circuit Court. Wirtz also ordered Pflum to spend three years on extended supervision. Pflum viewed explicit images of girls as young as 7 years old, according to the criminal complaint. Investigators took a look at Pflums activities last August after his probation agent learned he had created a MySpace profile, which violated conditions of his probation, according to the criminal complaint. Pflum was found guilty of possession of child pornography in March and 14 additional counts of possessing child porn were dismissed and read into the record, according to the complaint. Pflum was convicted in a child enticement case in Colorado in 2003, according to the Wisconsin Department of Corrections sex offender registry. His sex offender registration, prior to his current conviction, was supposed to end in March 2013. Pflum was ordered to again register as a sex offender during the hearing Tuesday for the Fond du Lac County Circuit Court case.

Police still seek stolen weapons Tue, 13 May 2008 16:25:00 CST
About ten months after the hunting store Sportsmans Choice was burglarized twice within a period of weeks, police are still seeking multiple firearms and bows stolen during the two burglaries. Police say the majority of the weapons stolen from Sportsmans Choice, 3310 Church St., were recovered in November during the execution of a search warrant. Police say the burglars entered the store in the early morning after shattering its front window, possibly blocking the sight from the road with a vehicle. Police are still looking for information on the whereabouts of the following rifles and bows: Rifles: Marlin Glenfield .22-caliber with Tasco scope, Ruger Mark II Bolt Action, 30-06-caliber, Remington 7600 .243-caliber, single shot, Beretta T-3 Tikka .270-caliber, Harrison and Richardson .223-caliber, single shot Stevens 200, 30-06-caliber. Bows: Alpine Micro Compound Bow, Jennings Reliant. If you have information about any of these weapons, call Stevens Point Detective Sergeant Greg Bean at 346-1515.

Even though Mark Staskal isn't returning to Eau Claire, an area lawmaker says the state should be required to notify local law enforcement and the public before someone such as Staskal is released into their community.Staskal, who stabbed his younger sister, Marcy, to death in their Milton home in 1984, was found not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect and committed to the Mendota Mental Health Institute in Madison. Last year, he was granted a conditional release and placed at a group home on Eau Claire's south side in November, sparking concerns from neighbors who learned of Staskal's placement from news reports."People were scared all over that area," said state Rep. Jeff Smith, D-Eau Claire, referring to the neighborhood surrounding the group home - The Bernice and Genevieve Foundation at 3806 Woodcrest Court."To me, this is a no-brainer," said Smith, who called for a review of the group home last fall. "The police and the public should be notified" about the release of people such as Staskal who commit violent crimes but are found not guilty because of mental disease or defect.That said, Smith isn't sure if new legislation will be required to make that happen or if lawmakers can simply tweak existing laws.Rock County Judge Michael Byron on Tuesday approved a conditional-release plan developed by the state Department of Health and Family Services to place Staskal at Brighter Life Living, a group home on East Mifflin Street in Madison, probably within two weeks.Except for a brief stay at the Eau Claire group home in November, Staskal, 44, has lived at Mendota the past 24 years. The two-week delay is necessary to hire more staff and train them to deal with Staskal's specific needs, Glenn Larson, conditional-release program manager for the Department of Health and Family Services, told the court.The group home, which has a rated capacity for four residents, now has three, and the staff-to-resident ratio will be at least 1-to-3 24 hours a day, Larson said.Once he is released, Staskal's mental health will be assessed daily, and he will meet weekly with a probation agent, Larson said.In addition, he will meet regularly with psychiatrists from Mendota, and he will not be allowed out into the community without direct supervision for at least 30 days, the state official said.Before his placement in Eau Claire, 16 similar facilities rejected the state's attempts to place him.After he was placed in the Eau Claire home, Staskal began having violent daydreams that his conditional-release team thought were triggered by stress, so the Department of Health and Family Services moved him back to Mendota 10 days after his arrival here. Smith said he doesn't want to harm people such as Staskal through legislation, but he wants to make sure residents at least are aware of their release into their communities."We need to have this discussion," Smith said Tuesday from Madison.Eau Claire County Sheriff Ron Cramer and Deputy Chief Brad Venaas of the Eau Claire Police Department agreed."Neighbors had questions (about Staskal's placement) and they needed answers, but they couldn't get answers," Cramer said. "I think they felt blindsided."Cramer said he didn't think it was appropriate for a Rock County judge to order Staskal's placement in Eau Claire County.Before potentially high-risk people are placed in any community, Venaas said people in that community should have a voice in the decision - and that local police should know when someone such as Staskal is moving in."I don't need to know about his mental health issues, what medications he's on, how often he's seeing his psychiatrist," Venaas said. "I just need to know where he's going to be, how is he going to be monitored."O'Brien can be reached at 830-5838, 800-236-7077 or christena.obrien@ecpc.com.

Public comment proposal amended
A time for residents to address the full 29-member Eau Claire County Board got a recommendation Tuesday from the Administration Committee, but with the caveat that comments stick to matters at hand.In a 3-2 vote, the committee recommended the County Board adopt a 30-minute public speaking period at meetings, but with an amendment allowing comments only on current agenda topics."If it's not tied to the agenda, I can't support this," said Mark Schmitt, the board's second vice chairman.Schmitt, County Board Chairman Gregg Moore and Vice Chairwoman Colleen Bates voted in favor of the public comment period, while fellow Administration Committee members Bruce Willett and Roger "Jody" Hahn opposed it.A speaking period is not needed in front of the full County Board, Hahn argued, because constituents can contact their representatives directly."I'm a conduit," Hahn said. "I'm there for them. That's my job."Willett had proposed requiring all the committees - bodies made of elected officials making recommendations to the County Board - to put "public comment" officially on all their agendas.But proponents of a public comment period in front of all 29 supervisors noted that the County Board meets at the same time, while the many committees have different schedules."The public doesn't know a lot of times of the meetings - they change," Moore said.The proposal's author, new County Board member Ken Fulgione, said constituents should have the chance to speak directly to all 29 county supervisors and not just through correspondence or talking to five members of a committee."There is a feeling that the County Board does not listen to what they have to say," he said.However, Fulgione said he did not agree that the comment period should pertain just to agenda items because those often are published just a couple of days before meetings.Dowd can be reached at 833-9204, 800-236-7077 or andrew.dowd@ecpc.com.EAU CLAIRE COUNTY

Group home worker charged
A former worker at an adult group home near Hudson has been charged with sexually assaulting a brain-injured woman two years ago at that facility.Gregory L. Drinkwine, 57, of Hudson is charged with six felonies: intentionally subjecting an individual at risk to abuse, intentionally abusing a patient at a treatment facility and four counts of second-degree sexual assault.The charges have a combined maximum penalty of 104 1/2 years in prison.Drinkwine's initial St. Croix County Court appearance is May 27.According to the criminal complaint:Pierce County Health and Human Services officials received a report in March 2007 that the woman, now 26, had been sexually assaulted by Drinkwine while she was staying at Community Living Specialists on Stageline Road near Hudson.The woman received a severe head injury in a traffic accident years earlier. The woman, while receiving a medical examination in March 2007, told the physician that she had sexual intercourse with Drinkwine the previous year. Drinkwine worked at Community Living Specialists from 1998 to 2000 and from 2002 to 2006, when he ended his employment.Community Living Specialists was a licensed adult family home from April 1997 through Feb. 28, 2007. The woman lived at the facility for several years before being transferred in February 2007.The woman told investigators that she had sexual contact with Drinkwine on numerous occasions. The criminal complaint lists those contacts as happening in February and March 2006.Rupnow can be reached at 830-5831, 800-236-7077 or chuck.rupnow@ecpc.com.

Time is right for family to show off farm
EAU GALLE - Pat Auth considers his dairy farm a self-contained operation. He, his wife, Cindy, and their son Derek raise their own crops, heifers and youngstock. The family has constructed several new buildings since 2000, and they're content with their setup. Now it's time to open their farm to the public. The Auths will host the Dunn County Dairy Breakfast on Saturday. "If we're going to do it, now would be the time," Pat said.The Auths, who live in the southwest corner of Dunn County west of Eau Galle, milk 225 Holsteins twice a day in a double-eight parallel parlor. Derek, 24, is the youngest of three sons. He manages the cows while Pat, 50, takes care of fieldwork. Cindy, 49, balances the books and works part time at a Durand pharmacy. The Auths pride themselves on keeping the somatic cell count low. Last year's figure was 143,000. They also have a rolling herd average of 27,000 pounds. They sell milk to the Eau Galle Cheese Factory."We're hands-on," Pat said. The Auths - who own 750 acres, with 450 for cropping - also have 200 heifers and calves. They have two full-time employees.The farm's expansions have been gradual. Pat and Cindy, both raised on dairy farms, started renting a 200-acre hilltop farm in 1980 and bought it in 1988. In 1985, they bought a neighboring 220-acre farm to raise heifers and steers. A 1990 tornado destroyed the buildings. The Auths built a heifer barn and moved all their animals to the home farm. In 2000, they built a maternity barn, used now to house calves.In 2002, they built a free-stall barn and the milking parlor, partly at the urging of Derek, who had just completed the Farm and Industry Short Course offered by UW-Madison's College of Agricultural and Life Sciences. With the new buildings, the Auths increased their herd from 60 to 200 cows. In 2006, the family built sheds to raise heifers and house dry cows. "We've got just about the perfect amount for Derek and I to handle," Pat said.Son Toby and his wife, Tory, and their daughter, Siera, live in Menomonie. Ryan and his wife, Emily, and their son, Aiden, live in Fountain City. Derek and his wife, Vicki, have a daughter, Norah. Mallory, the youngest Auth sibling, will graduate next May from UW-La Crosse.Everyone helps out at the farm when visiting home."I'm glad we raised our family in the country," Pat said.

Graduating Marine must wear cap, gownBLOOMER - Graduates from Bloomer High School are required to wear only traditional cap-and-gown regalia during commencement ceremonies May 31, according to a new dress code implemented by the Bloomer School Board Monday night.According to a statement released by the school district, the district believes graduation is a "ceremony to recognize and honor students for their academic achievement."The decision comes in wake of Bloomer High School graduate Daniel Lingen's request to wear his U.S. Marine formal dress blue uniform during commencement. Lingen finished coursework early and currently is in basic training. He graduates basic training May 24."I'm appalled by the decision," said Charles Lingen, Daniel's father. "Dan's request was simple. He just wanted to wear his dress blues and pick up his diploma.

Reading bluethedogâs post in another thread reminds me that I recently witnessed something remarkable on local TV.

I just about fell out of my chair last night, when I saw Neil Heinenâs latest editorial comment on Channel 3 regarding the Brittany Zimmerman murder investigation.

As he started talking about the murder case, I was expecting the usual non-controversial editorial from Neil (such as a no-brainer, âmurder is badâ argument). Instead he actually criticized the Police department for being so secretive.

As I have lampooned many times here before, I find it rare for a Neil Heinen editorial to have any substance. For him to actually call attention to the shortcomings of a public institution is even more rare. Usually he is patting them on the back.

No, it didnât have the teeth that a Bill Lueders editorial about Madison Police and secrecy would have had. But for a Neil Heinen editorial, it was truly exceptional.

In other words, the problem must really be that bad.

The gripe has always been the pay to vote format but (and this is an honest question) is it raising the kind of money it should be? I guess that depends on what the expectations are, but when I see that Clear Blue Betty wins Jazz song (for a song that's not jazz) and Rock artist I begin to think there is a large part of the listening community who is not participating. Granted, they could like anyone else who pays the fee. The point I'm trying to make is that if you're not maximizing your potential to earn money for this cause by missing a large part of the community who should be interested...maybe it's time to change your strategy.

I hear lots of people defend the MAMA's saying it's for a good cause (I agree with them) but there must be a better way to raise money for school music programs. It just seems odd to me that you would invest a great deal of time and money into a show that doesn't represent the scene or raise the kind of money it should.

To be honest, I'd feel better about playing a free show and donating the money to kids than asking our fans to pay $5 to vote in a contest.
