“On April 2, 2024 I was advised that a complaint of inappropriate off duty conduct was made against an employee of our Public Safety Communications Department.

Due to the nature of the potential criminal complaint, the matter was immediately referred to the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office for investigation.  The employee was placed on leave and the Pleasant Prairie Police Department is cooperating fully with the investigation. 

On April 13,2024 the employee, Brian Gildenstern, was taken into custody by the KCSO and is being held pending an upcoming court proceeding.

These allegations are troubling and obviously contrary to the conduct we expect from all our employees.”

Gildenstern is due in court on April 23, 2024 for a preliminary hearing.

  1. As a holocaust survivor and there are millions of us, I must stick up for Gildenstern. Gildenstern is of course one of Gods chosen and so we must look at our most religous book, the Talmud. Gildernstern has every right to do what he did according to the Talmud/Tradition of the Elders. I pulled some supporting verses to help in his defense. This most holy book can be found in all of our synagogues.

    Yebhamoth 11b:
    Sexual intercourse with a little girl is permitted if she is three years of age.

    Aboda Sarah 37a:
    A Gentile girl who is three years old can be violated.

    Gad. Shas. 2:2:
    A Jew may violate but not marry a non-Jewish girl.

    I recommend that this case be moved to another county so it can be shut down by one of my fellow DA’s that accepted some of our fiat currency for their election campaign.

      1. What are you talking about? This is our culture and religion. We run your country because we have infiltrated your banking system, your government, your corporations, your schools with our curriculum but we keep you preoccupied with debt slavery, porn, sports, political theatre, pandemics and more so you’ll never do anything about it or take the time to notice what we are doing. It could be your child next but hey they are just Goyam and we are “Gods chosen”. Stop being anti semetic. We are the victims, not you.

        You should be mad, you let us get away with it all. I appreciate you being so politically correct by trying to keep culture and religion out of it, we really have you fooled.

  2. ”These allegations are troubling and obviously contrary to the conduct we expect from all our employees.”
