Just how open to criminal business is Wisconsin while Walker’s D.O.J. puts the screws to singers?

Have you been shaking your fist in the general direction of the WI Department of Justice for exacting political retribution against singers? Well, after reading a story by Steven Elbow in Cap Times, I now wonder if we should switch to the harder work of verifying what criminal allegations the D.O.J. is deliberately deciding NOT to investigate and whose (possibly very important) names are attached to those crimes.

...

The emailer is one of about 30 homeowners and subcontractors who were stiffed out of what amounts to $2 million after Bella Kitchen and Bath of Elm Grove closed in 2012.

According to Elbow, the homeowner forwarded him an email from a Wisconsin D.O.J. prosecutor which contains this:
“I haven’t received (Wauwautosa police) reports, so I am proceeding without them. I will be tied up with Capitol protester cases and a couple other things until Thanksgiving. I would like to get something filed on Bella before the end of the year.”

...

Wisconsin D.O.J. can’t file charges against a business that walks off with families’ savings but it CAN doggedly pursue singers who got charged under a law that isn’t even valid anymore with citations not more serious than a traffic ticket. Time to touch up those signs at the state borders. They need to say “open for CRIMINAL business”.

5. Wow. I never thought about that.

I always realized that the prosecution of the protesters was political, and a waste of resources, but never thought about what those resources could be actually used for, and what's being neglected because of the diversion of resources to harass political enemies of the state. It's downright Christie-esque.

(Of course, don't expect it to get any media play here in Walkerstan.)
