A Profile Of An Internet Troll In Kenosha County: “Sue Grace”

Copied!
Susan Grace Castagnoli-Krokosz (D), (69) Pleasant Prairie, WI
(Facebook)


Susan Grace Castagnoli-Krokosz is a 69-year-old resident of the upper-middle-class neighborhood of Carol Beach in Pleasant Prairie. She hasn’t always lived in Wisconsin. She is from Illinois. In Illinois, she worked as an attorney until she was disbarred for multiple counts of fraud in 2011. The State of Illinois Supreme Court found that Sue Grace defrauded at least 13 clients while working as a bankruptcy attorney, for many tens of thousands of dollars.

She then moved to Wisconsin. In 2017, Sue Grace herself would file for bankruptcy for nearly $500,000.

Sue Grace spends most of her time online, trolling politicians on Facebook, Twitter, via email and phone calls. KCE believes that she is unemployed and divorced. Sue Grace sends thousands of messages each year to politicians. She interacts incessantly with former State Rep and current County Executive Samantha Kerkman, County Board Supervisor and State Rep Amanda Nedweski, Congressman Bryan Steil, US Senator Ron Johnson, State Senator Van Wanggaard, KUSD School Board Member Eric Meadows, and more. She literally posts thousands of times on social media every single month. Elected officials cannot ban her from commenting on their pages, but private individuals and groups do, like Moms for Liberty and others.

When she bothers someone so much that they block her – she then brags on social media.

Sue Grace finds herself in “Facebook Jail” often times and seems to enjoy it, celebrating it as a victory. Below are all posts the Sue Grace had removed for violating Facebook terms of service.

Sue Grace even sent a large amount of emails to the former health director and wanted businesses to close and forced masks for all. Sue Grace thought that the overly-partisan, health director was not extreme enough. She became angry with the Pleasant Prairie Police Department when they refused to enforce the safer at home orders “AFTER” they were rescinded.

Sue Grace made a post on Facebook about how triggered she was that during the riots of 2020, when a police officer drove past her home on 3rd Ave and they “were armed.” She said that she believed that the police were targeting her children, because they are “of color.”

Sue Grace has been reported to the police many times. Especially once she started mentioning politician’s children, and making other “off” comments. Although the State of Illinois Supreme Court did not evaluate Sue Grace’s mental health, we all should. Her many thousand of hours harassing and trolling conservative elected officials would be better put to use on her own well-being. Her actions have been getting more and more scary every day.

  1. We should not make fun of her mental illness but, she needs her head examined for being a liberal dope. People like her are a lost cause and a reason for sterilization. No one with her issues should ever reproduce. We don’t need more mentally unstable people like her.

  2. This is a very unhinged person and has no
    life but to disrespect and disrupt others because hers is so pathetic. BTW, where’s her mask???

  3. Holy cow, this is great. She really is a nut – recently got into several arguments on Nextdoor about the (temporary) speed bumps that were installed to slow down drivers that are using Carol Beach as a cut-through. First it was going to cause the Pat’s trucks to roll over (wanted a pat on the back for calling to inform them of the bumps). Second, she claimed people were flying down 3rd Ave to avoid the speed bumps which is bogus since no bumps are in that section of Lakeshore Dr.

    She gets into so many stupid arguments I thought her daughter had been using her Nextdoor account.

  4. She has to be certifiably crazy. She goes off on bizarre tangents that make no sense. She has stated that Hispanic people are not really minorities unless they have Conquistador blood (which her daughters apparently do). She spends her days harassing public officials on FB and calling them endlessly over nonsense. One of these officials only has one staff member to field comments and calls and is so overburdened with her nonsense he barely has time to do actual work.

  5. I feel bad for her kids. All that comes out of her is pure hate! Always complaining about something while living her sheltered life in a nice neighborhood in Pleasant Prairie. Hate, and harassment is not welcome here Sue! Do better!

    1. i also feel sorry for her kids. I would hate to have to deal with her filthy mouth every day! i cannot believe how parents speak to their kids! i also can’t believe she eats with that mouth

  6. I blocked her a couple of months ago. Her treatment of Supervisor/State Rep Nedweski is absolutely outrageous. Nedweski hasn’t even been in politics long enough to be a problem, she seems to be ready and willing to do great things, and this whackadoodle treats her like she’s as bad as Vos.

  7. It’s about time Sue Grace is called out on her outrageous behavior. Her harassment of elected officials and rude behavior to anyone who disagrees with her has been going on for far too long. Interesting that she was disbarred and claimed bankruptcy. Shows how incompetent and stupid she is. Go away, Sue Grace, and never come back for the good of Kenosha County!!!

  10. Oh, I hope she keeps it up! She may single-handedly ruin any chance of these DEMONrats from getting control in the city and state. She is a great example of the mental disease called liberalism. What a nutcase. I hope her kids are grown up now and move far away from this miserable, toxic miscreant.

    1. Oh? Did she claim to be raped by somebody and did she celebrate when law enforcement was getting hit in the head with bricks?

  14. Never even knew who she was until this. Looked at her page and she’s gotta be mental. She is obsessed with Eric meadows and republicans. Someone else said it but she is in cahoots with Joel. Them two teamed up is like a super nut job duo.

  15. Let’s just hope they came out with another round of Covid and booster shots. You know this nutbag will be in line for whatever her pharmekia overlords will give her. This Sue DisGrace will eventually suicide herself through her self medication.

  16. Ha! She made her page private now. Must not like people opposing her views. That’s definitely the democratic way! Hopefully she is seeing just how stupid she sounds. My god 70 years old and plays on social media all day. Poor kids and grandkids

  17. How are her and Joel not charged with harassment. Her page is insane and should be deleted. It is almost an obsession. Definitely not mentally stable. And embarrassing for anyone in their families

  18. All of these trolls seem to have one thing in common – “Only Feed Corn Fans” accounts.?. Many thanks for all you do, Kevin.

  19. She is 100% off her rocker and needs to be committed. I worked at the post office for a while and she was well known. When you first start, the people whom only have about two years or less, have to work on Sunday delivering Amazon packages. I had no idea who she was the first time I went to her house. She was all masked up and gloves on and this was before Covid. She wanted to know if I was followed or if anyone asked me to wear a camera. She had said some really bizarre things and I couldn’t get out fast enough. She called and complained saying I ran over her grass(I didn’t). I got off lucky. After talking with some others, she had called and complained saying one of them was opening her packages. She accused another of putting anthrax in her packages and that’s why she was all geared up when she gets deliveries. She said one made lewd and inappropriate comments towards her. Sometimes she would follow whoever delivered her items. I tried to make sure not to get the route ever again but since everyone else did it too, it wasn’t always avoidable. Just a complete nut job.

  20. LOL!
    She is probably having a full on meltdown!

    Carol Beach has it’s share of limousine libtards.
    Thankfully, they self-identify with “in this house” signs and sodomy flags.

  21. She’s a piece of work on the Nextdoor app as well, starting fires with the neighbors.
    Some people need to be forced medicated, mental illness is not a choice and she’s making everyone around her as miserable as she is.
    Her poor kids.

  22. Kevin is a murderer. He called Rittenhouse to Kenosha. Ever wonder why he put his house in his wife’s name shortly after the shooting?

    16
    1. Interesting allegation. I wish you would identify yourself as opposed to being “anonymous.” Kyle Rittenhouse, who pulled the trigger while I was 15 miles away, was found “not guilty” by a jury of his peers. So even if he came here becuase of my Facebook post, I am not a murderer. Here is the thing though – The Kenosha Police and FBI concluded Kyle did NOT see my post. Kyle was attacked by a wife-beater, pedo, and a career criminal. He shot them. Case closed.

      As you your other claim that is more ignoramus than the last, my home is in the name of both my wife and me since we purchased it and nothing has changed. I’m a little creeped out that you are looking up where I live. Remember, I’m heavily armed and there is nothing in my home worth losing your life over.

      Thanks for your uneducated contribution to the discussion though 🙂

      30
  23. I’m glad I don’t live near her. I would not like to be her neighbor. We would definitely be on opposite sides! I feel badly for her and people like her that have so much hatred in their heart. Misery likes company.
