Special Prosecutor On John Doe Ruling: Truth and Justice Denied For Wisconsin

To:.................
It defies common sense that a Wisconsin resident of average means who gives $25 to a campaign has his or her name publicly reported under the law but, according to this decision, someone who gives, for example, $100,000 to a group which closely coordinates with the same campaign can remain anonymous. The United States Supreme Court has fittingly characterized such donations as disguised contributions to the candidate. As stated in Wisconsin Statute 11.001, hen the true source of support or extent of support is not fully disclosed, or when a candidate becomes overly dependent upon large private contributors, the democratic process is subjected to a potential corrupting influence.
Particular justices assert as fact many allegations that I specifically denied in my response materials. There has been no fact-finding hearing conducted at any level establishing, for example, that search warrants were executed unprofessionally or that persons were denied an opportunity to contact their attorneys. All of these search warrants were audio-recorded and it is wrong for the court to accept as true the information alleged by some of the Unnamed Movants and their media outlets. ..............

MADISON - I was up early this morning waiting to hear the John Doe decision from the Wisconsin State Supreme Court, and when I read it, I wanted to go back to bed.
Its awful, baseless, and dangerous, as we pointed out in our press release on it that we hustled out the door:
