Salem Lakes Trustee Angela Brooks Faces Criticism For Missing About Half Of 2026 Meetings While Receiving Full $9,000 Annual Stipend
SALEM LAKES, Wis. — Salem Lakes Trustee Angela Brooks (D) is facing criticism from residents after attending approximately half of the village meetings reviewed by Kenosha County Eye in 2026 while receiving her full $9,000 annual stipend. Residents who spoke with KCE acknowledged that the stipend is modest, but said Brooks should donate half or return it to the village because she has missed about half the meetings. After receiving complaints about Brooks’ repeated absences, Kenosha County Eye reviewed meeting videos and minutes and sought an explanation from both Brooks and Village President Rita Bucur. Neither responded to KCE’s inquiries. Brooks was elected April 1, 2025, receiving 2,446 votes and winning a two-year term running through April 2027. Her first meeting as a trustee was April 21, 2025, when Bucur
Teen Who Brought Loaded Gun To Kenosha School, Made Threats And Fought With Police Was Kept In Juvenile Court By Judge Kerkmann (D) – Now Investigated In Connection With Shooting, Released On No-Cash Bail
KENOSHA, Wis. – When a 16-year-old brings a loaded gun into a high school, allegedly threatens to shoot others and fights with police officers, should he be prosecuted as an adult? Not in Kenosha, at least not in the case of Jahheem P. Wright. In 2025, Kenosha County Circuit Court Judge Chad Kerkman (D) rejected prosecutors’ efforts to have Wright tried as an adult, keeping him in the juvenile justice system. Now 18, Wright is once again facing criminal charges after police attempted to locate him in connection with a shooting investigation. On Thursday, October 8, 2026, Supplemental Court Commissioner Tracey Braun released Wright on just $250 no-cash bail, meaning he did not have to post a single dollar to secure his release. The latest development raises renewed questions about

Kenosha Judge Returns $7,500 Bail To Person Who Posted It, Orders 5th-Offense OWI Defendant With Violent Criminal Past Back Into Custody
Kenosha County Circuit Court Judge Jason Rossell (D) and Richard A. Brandes(Photo of Judge, Kevin Mathewson, Kenosha County Eye – Brandes, Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office) KENOSHA, Wis. — Every day in Kenosha County, parents, grandparents, spouses, girlfriends, boyfriends and other loved ones put up thousands of dollars of their own money to get someone out of jail. But posting cash bail comes with significant financial risks. Those who post the money are warned that it may ultimately be used to pay fines, court costs, restitution and other financial obligations. They also risk losing the money if the defendant violates certain court requirements. For someone facing a felony fifth-offense drunken driving charge, which ordinarily carries a mandatory minimum of 18 months of initial confinement upon conviction, those risks can be particularly

Kenosha Paleontologist, Struggling Carthage College Dinosaur Program Take Center Stage In Nationally Premiering Documentary About T. Rex Fossils
KENOSHA, Wis. — A Kenosha paleontologist and his fight to preserve a local dinosaur research program will take center stage on a national platform next month when a Wisconsin-produced documentary makes its world premiere at DOC NYC, the largest documentary film festival in the United States. The New Extinction, directed by Milwaukee filmmaker Kyle Lloyd Arpke, follows renowned Tyrannosaurus rex expert Dr. Thomas Carr as he navigates financial pressures threatening the future of Carthage College’s paleontology program, while exploring a controversial multimillion-dollar industry in which dinosaur fossils are increasingly treated as valuable commodities rather than scientific discoveries.

Appeals Court Rejects Challenge From Kenosha Drunk Driver Sentenced to 30 Years in Prison for Killing Two Friends
KENOSHA, Wis. — A Pleasant Prairie man sentenced to 30 years in prison for killing two of his friends and seriously injuring two others in a horrific drunken-driving crash has lost his appeal challenging evidence obtained by police shortly after the deadly collision. The Wisconsin Court of Appeals upheld the conviction of Ajay Gregory Pierangeli, 24, who pleaded guilty to two counts of homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle in connection with the July 28, 2023, crash that killed Dylan Zamora and Jenna Barrette. In a decision released Wednesday, October 7, 2026, a three-judge appellate panel rejected Pierangeli’s argument that police violated his constitutional rights when they ordered a blood draw at the hospital without first obtaining a search warrant. The decision leaves intact the circuit court’s ruling allowing
Republican-Appointed Judge Gives Racine County Deputy A Free Pass For Unauthorized Flock Searches, Refuses Criminal Proceedings Despite Finding He Exceeded His Authority
RACINE, Wis. — At a time when Wisconsin law enforcement officers are facing increasing scrutiny for abusing powerful surveillance tools such as Flock license plate readers, a Republican-appointed judge has declined to pursue criminal proceedings against a Racine County sheriff’s deputy despite expressly finding that he exceeded his authority when using law enforcement technology. In a final order issued Thursday, October 8, Walworth County Circuit Court Judge Kristine E. Drettwan rejected a John Doe petition filed by Kenosha County Eye seeking accountability for Deputy Emil J. Ortiz, 37, of Somers, who allegedly conducted 19 unauthorized Flock searches targeting his girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend. Drettwan also refused to appoint a special prosecutor, leaving Ortiz without criminal charges despite a documented pattern of unauthorized database activity. The decision follows Racine County District Attorney Patricia

KUSD Reports Modest Gains In Reading And Math, But Most Tested Students Remain Below Benchmarks
KENOSHA, Wis. — Kenosha Unified School District reported mixed results on its spring 2026 assessments Wednesday, with improvements in elementary and middle school English Language Arts and some high school math scores, alongside declines in other areas. Fewer than half of tested students met the reported proficiency levels or benchmarks in every category highlighted by the district.

Math results for those same grades changed little, increasing from 42.5% proficient to 42.6%, a gain of 0.1 percentage point. “We are encouraged by the growth we are seeing, particularly in early
How Common Is It for Wisconsin Lawyers To Be Temporarily Suspended for Missing Legal Deadlines?
KENOSHA, Wis. — Temporary suspensions for missing regulatory deadlines are a recurring part of Wisconsin’s lawyer licensing system. A Kenosha County Eye review of state BAR records identified 1,844 suspension entries involving 1,724 different Wisconsin-licensed attorneys on nine annual lists issued between 2016 and 2026, including 16 attorneys with Kenosha addresses. The records provide context for Kenosha County District Attorney Xavier Solis’ approximately one-day suspension last month. His Wisconsin law license was suspended effective September 14 after he missed a deadline to provide information requested by the Office of Lawyer Regulation. It was reinstated September 15. The temporary suspension was procedural and did not determine whether the allegations underlying the agency’s investigations were true. Even Antioch, Illinois, Mayor Scott J. Gartner appears in the records. His Wisconsin law license was

Taxes Are Going Up: Kenosha County Executive Proposes Another Property Tax Increase
KENOSHA, Wis. — Kenosha County Executive Samantha Kerkman (R), a lifelong Republican, presented a proposed 2027 budget Tuesday night calling for an almost 3 percent increase in the county’s property tax levy, even as she touted growing sales tax collections, billions of dollars in economic development and the county’s strong financial position. Kerkman described the proposed levy increase as below 3 percent, although the budget address and accompanying highlights did not provide the exact percentage or total dollar increase. The levy is the total amount the county collects through property taxes; individual homeowners’ bills will vary. Kerkman framed the proposed increase as evidence of restraint, telling supervisors that her budget comes in below the rate of inflation. “The budget you’re receiving tonight continues our AAA momentum — and it does
