Judge says investigation involving Scott Walker is still open
Source: Wis. State Journal
The judge overseeing the investigation into people who worked for Gov. Scott Walker when he was the Milwaukee County executive said Wednesday that the probe is not complete and remains open.
Walker said Tuesday that he hoped the so-called "John Doe" investigation would end as early as this week. He made the comments in response to a question at a meeting of the Dairy Business Association and said afterward that he was basing his hope on media accounts and a general feeling that the investigation was winding down.
But retired Waukesha County Judge Neal Nettesheim told The Associated Press in a telephone interview from his home Wednesday that anyone guessing that the probe was coming to an end was engaging in "pure conjecture."
"The John Doe is not completed," Nettesheim said. "It is still open."

(9,124 posts)I didnt say I had any knowledge of it when the person asked me a question at the end. I said like most people I would be happy and hopeful that it might be done this week," Walker said.

Walker told a dairy industry audience in Madison Tuesday that the probe, now some 2 1/2 years old, could be coming to a close this week. He said he based his assessment on media accounts and a growing sentiment the investigation was coming to an end.
Speaking to reporters Wednesday in Madison after addressing a meeting of business lobby Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce, Walker stressed that he had no "inside track" on the investigation and said he had just been expressing a hope Tuesday.
