Scott Walker Corruption Case Explodes As Gov. May Face Justice For Alleged Crimes

[meow2u3]

The Republican majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court thought that they killed the Scott Walker corruption case over the summer, but prosecutors aren’t giving up and are preparing to file an appeal to the US Supreme Court.

According to the Journal-Sentinel:

Three district attorneys have moved to intervene in litigation over a closed investigation into Gov. Scott Walker’s campaign and conservative groups, a move aimed at bringing the case before the U.S. Supreme Court.

The motion was filed under seal Friday by Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm along with two other prosecutors involved in the secret John Doe probe.None of them responded to requests for comment.

At the heart of the matter is that two Republican Wisconsin Supreme Court justices benefited from spending by the same dark money groups that prosecutors believe illegally coordinated with Walker.

A couple of crooked "Justices" may also be in the same cell with him.

1. Walker is such a weasel that he'll probably figure out how to beat this rap, too,

but I'd sure like to see him in an orange jumpsuit.

[lastlib]

12. Please don't insult weasels like that!

Pond-scum, fine. Sewer-scum, better. But not weasels, they're much more noble than Walker.

[dhill926]

2. please let this be true...

[randys1]

3. Imagine if we had a SC that wasnt dominated by rightwing assholes who will gladly

do whatever the Koch bros tell them to do.

[rurallib]

5. by a vote of 5-4 SCOTUS

is probably as corrupt as the Wisconsin SC

[saturnsring]

4. wonderful news i thought he got away with it

[Iwillnevergiveup]

6. The Badger State

deserves better!

[REPUguy]

7. I wouldn't get too excited

I still remember getting my hopes up for Fitzmas and of course that never happened either.

[valerief]

8. Won't SCOTUS protect Walker since they're all owned by the same oligarchs? nt

[Proserpina]

9. that would be a pleasant surprise and make a really nice change

but I won't hold my breath.

[madokie]

10. Maybe that's why he dropped out of the race so soon

remember he was one of the clown car occupants at one point in time

[gregcrawford]

11. Throw the sonofabitch...

... in a cell with a big, tattooed bear whose momma got screwed by his draconian corporatist policies, and we'll see who gets screwed in the end.

Just seeing his name in print makes my hatred of Republicans go super-nova.

[meow2u3]

19. And no protective custody for him

Throw this monster Walker to the wolves, along with the crooked justices who all but installed him.

[gregcrawford]

20. Tell it like it IS!

[Scuba]

13. It would be hard to overstate how corrupt our State's Supreme Court is. Wanker too.

[Egnever]

16. If anyone anywhere whatches the making of a murderer

They will have a pretty good idea of what a mess the Wisconsin judicial system is.

If you haven't seen it it is on Netflix and a truly fascinating binge watch.

[chowder66]

14. After watching Making a Murderer I don't have high hopes.

The politics there are steeped in cronyism.

[Egnever]

15. Just finished watching that myself

It was mind boggling. I found myself screaming at the TV over and over.

I am not sure Steve is innocent, but the behavior of the police force and DA was unbelievable.

One of the most fascinating documentaries I have ever seen.

Like you it didn't leave me with a lot of hope for Wisconsin. It does kind of explain walkers ability to thrive there.

[Glimmer of Hope]

17. I am in the middle of watching the series and thought the same thing.

That is Walker country. No wonder he gets reelected.

[UTUSN]

18. k

[bdwker]

21. I really hate that pos.

Have fun in jail, Scott.

[Greybnk48]

22. Here in Wisconsin, we can only hope.

Everything is so corrupt we can't count on justice to prevail, we can only hope.
