Inmate Garchek was housed at the Kenosha County Jail, 1000 55th Street in the City and County of Kenosha for his own pending charges, as was Inmate Washington.

Inmate Garchek was escorted to Medical where he had three lacerations above the right eye which required super glue to keep them closed. This injury was done to Inmate Garchek by Inmate Washington without Inmate Garchek’s consent. Correctional supervision staff were able to locate camera footage of the altercation that occurred at 1255 hours where Inmate Washington punched Inmate Garchek in the right eye.

Inmate Garchek advised that after lunch, he went to the kiosk to put in a transfer request due to other inmates intimidating him by asking questions about his pending charges. As Inmate Garchek was attempting to find the form, inmate Washington walked up to Inmate Garchek and told Inmate Garchek to get off the kiosk, stating “I need to put some fucking bread on my books, can you get off this.” Inmate Garchek told Inmate Washington to wait and let him finish. Inmate Washington continued to harass Inmate Garcheck stating “man why are you making this difficult” while Inmate Garchek attempted to use the kiosk. Inmate Garcheck replied that he wasn’t making anything difficult, and Inmate Washington asked about his case, to which Inmate Garcheck did not respond.

Inmate Washington told Inmate Garchek “You probably locked up for weird shit.” Inmate Garchek responded, “No, I’m locked up for fucking your son in the ass.” Inmate Washington stated the doesn’t recall what happened and ended up in segregation.

Inmate Garchek advised that’s when Inmate Washington struck him in the right eye with a closed fist. Inmate Garchek did not consent to this and stated it caused pain.

Meadows for the Prairie: Opinion

Pleasant Prairie has an interesting quirk among its residents. Each time a local election comes around, I find my neighbors begin speaking and asking questions in hushed tones.  They’re perfectly normal questions, such as “have you looked at who’s running for the Village Board?” or “did your property taxes go up this year?” I’ve always found it odd that such things are discussed over backyard fences with frequent glances to the side. My family moved to

      1. The racial slur is in the same paragraph as that. I don’t know how you missed it.

        > They continued to argue back and forth when Inmate Washington heard Inmage Garcheck say under this breath “fucking n*****”. Inmate Washington asked Inmate Garchek “Oh your racist?” to which Inmate Garchek replied, “Maybe I am.”

  1. If u look like a child molester , but ain’t ….. you might wanna tell your fellow inmates you ain’t a child molester , just a dumbass methhead

  2. For anyone wondering what it’s like in prison, here is your example.
    Do bad things, risk having bad things done to you.

    I’m not wishing violence on anyone anywhere but, you don’t have places to run to when you’re in jail or prison.

    Think about that when you consider crime as a way to get ahead.

    Though I doubt many criminal types read these pages.

        1. And inmates need to follow the rules of the jail. Y’know, like adults.

          For the pinhead that think these are Andy Griffith style jail cells, most inmate are out in a common area/dorm during non sleeping hours. They are checked on often. If they want to start fights, etc, then they get a segregation cell.

      1. Why shouldn’t they be together? You are about as stupid as they come. Washington is in there for murder and has extreme violence on record. The other dude not so much. I was in there when this happened and I was released about a month later. Other guys were in there with us on misdemeanors. How do you, Einstein, justify mixing murders with petty nonviolent criminals?

  3. So the jail is run by buffoons and always has been. Is anyone surprised? That’s like lining the women up for a fire drill and one older lady with common sense points out the obvious “you’re in charge of us, what if it doesn’t work or, we’re sleeping?” after the tough guard says; if this thing goes off we’re saving ourself first so listen up during the drill. So basically die and we’ll save ourselves. So fuck around and find out is the norm in this place.

    1. Yes all the words come together but it really is a weird scenario you are envisioning.

      Almost sounds like you want to be a guard in a women’s prison

  4. This guy was a cop for a very short time close to two decades ago. It’s not like he’s been recently employed in law enforcement. He was a weirdo then too.

  5. Former cop for some reason thought he would get away with a bank robbery. Former cop knows the risk. Former cop knows how felons think of cops. He did it to himself.

  6. Who the fuck would give consent to be punched in the face? Did that really have to be mentioned TWICE in the article?

  7. Its a jungle out there ! prison comes down to the survival of the fittest . The career criminal looking to take down a defenseless apprentice criminal. So they do harm to each other what is the big deal ?

  8. Waupun warden arrest and in Dodge county jail after federal investigation of “persons in their care” deaths in 2023.

  9. Oh former Occifer get used to it! You’re a target, marked, doneski.
    Inmates don’t care, guards don’t care.
    I wouldn’t eat any if your delicious chow in there and keep a close eye lol (broken glasses) on your toothbrush. You done messed up!
    Maybe you’ll even meet some homies you locked up?!
