Jacqueline Niccolai, Counselor
(Mugshot, Kenosha County Sheriff)

A former foster mom is not happy that KCE wrote an article about her recent arrest and criminal case. So upset, in fact, that she began emailing KCE at 12:57 am on Saturday, July 20, 2024. Jacqueline Covelli-Niccolai, 37, of Kenosha, sent KCE Editor Kevin Mathewson 14 emails in a 3-hour period containing bizarre, questionable, concerning, and explicit emails.

Niccolai went on about how a Kenosha nail bar “fucked up” her finger nails and they look “really bad.” This particular email came with a photo. She then told KCE about medication she was taking, pot holes in the city, unwanted hairs on her chin because of menopause, high gas prices, the increasing fees for streaming services, the fact that she doesn’t pay her water bill. She referred to Mathewson as lover-boy and signed some emails “love always,” “xoxo,” “love,” and “forever yours.”

She put some emails in the mix calling Mathewson “pathetic” and a “bitch.” She then quickly switched gears and told KCE that she “ran out of eye lash clusters today. Now I’m using the shorter lashes. I don’t [think] they look as good as the longer ones. I hope they look ok for the pictures you take of me in court. I will definitely be dressing up [for] you sweetheart.” She then wrote that Mathewson’s face “turns [her] on.” She then mentioned fellatio (oral sex).

Mathewson believed that Niccolai was intoxicated during the emails. While on a $500 cash bail, Niccolai is prohibited from consuming alcohol. Mathewson called Kenosha Police requesting a wellness check because it has been reported that Niccolai had been suicidal in the past. Kenosha Police went to her home and one officer told another officer over the radio to use caution because she “was armed last time I spoke to her.” Two KPD Officers responded to Niccolai’s residence, but a person who answered the door wouldn’t allow police to check on her, saying that Niccolai was in the bathroom. Niccolai wrote in another email “It’s so weird to (sic) officers just came to my house and asked about you and asked about me. They’re wondering if we have a love affair. Do we?” Niccolai posted on social media in an exchange with failed assembly candidate Crystal Miller (D) that the Kenosha Police spoke about Mathewson and told her that she was writing “drunk emails.” The body camera below determined those were all lies. KPD never spoke with Niccolai. She refused to leave her bathroom, according to a man or woman that answered the door.

Incident Leading To Niccolai’s Arrest

Niccolai was taken into custody by the Kenosha Police Department early on May 28, 2024. Niccolai was charged on June 25, 2024 with “operating a firearm while intoxicated.” If convicted, Niccolai faces up to nine months in prison and up to a $10,000 fine.

According to the criminal complaint:

A Kenosha Police Officer reported that on May 28, 2024 at approximately 2:31 a.m., he was dispatched to a residence in the 7900 block of 48th Ave for a welfare check. Dispatch advised the caller stated she was the sister of Jacqueline Niccolai, and was on a 3-way call with her. The caller wanted Niccolai checked on as she was not making sense and making off comments.”

Upon arrival, officers made contact with Jacqueline P. Niccolai, identified via WI photo driver’s license. Niccolai gave consent to officers to enter her home. Police immediately observed Niccolai to be swaying while standing, slurring her words, and she had a very strong odor of intoxicants emanating from her breath. Niccolai was not making sense when police asked her questions but she did advise that she was in a group text message with a girl named Ashley Blanck. Niccolai stated Ashley had made threats to kill herself in the text message group. Niccolai stated that Ashley lived in Carol Beach.

Police asked Niccolai if she could show him the text messages and she advised she would go and grab her phone to do so. The responding officer spoke with a backup officer and he advised that he was going to walk to his squad to make a phone call regarding this matter. During this time, Niccolai walked away briefly as they had discussed her grabbing her cell phone.

While speaking with the backup officer, Police observed Niccolai re-approach the backup officer and enter the kitchen area next to the living room where they had been standing. Instead of showing him a cell phone, Niccolai walked quickly away from his direction into the kitchen area near a staircase that led downstairs. Police then observed a slightly curved black handle sticking out of the back of Jacqueline’s dress near the small of her back. He recognized the shape of the black handle to be consistent with the handle of a revolver (handgun, aka pistol). The officer immediately ran to Niccolai’s location and ordered her to stop several times. When he was in close proximity to her back, he observed the black handle to be a revolver. Police immediately removed the revolver from the small of her back with his right hand while she was faced away from him. The officer turned to his right and placed the revolver on top of the fridge away from her reach while maintaining control of her person with his left hand. For Niccolai’s safety and officers’ safety, he placed Niccolai in handcuffs. The backup officer took possession of the revolver. Around the time that the backup officer had rendered the revolver safe, he observed the ammunition that was unloaded from the cylinder. The ammunition was consistent with the size/color of .38 Special steel cased ammunition.

In court last month, Niccolai appeared without an attorney. The Kenosha DA’s office asked for a $500 cash bail and Kenosha County Court Commissioner William Michel II ordered the cash bail.

Niccolai, according to court documents, has admitted to police that she has recently done illegal drugs. She is three-times divorced and admitted to cheating on her second husband and was accused of cheating on her third husband. She has fostered and adopted children. Her social media reports that she is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) at a popular Kenosha Mental Health Counseling and Family Court Services organization, however, the director for this facility confirmed with KCE that she is no longer employed there.

Matthew Augustine – Sergeant-at-Arms, Republican Party of Kenosha County
(facebook.com)

Niccolai has a criminal charge and or conviction out of Riverside, CA. The nature of the charge is unknown. Niccolai used to be largely involved in the local Republican Party, but has been shunned by most members. There is one exception. The local party’s Sergeant-at-Arms, Matt Augustine, who likewise has a criminal history, took to Facebook to defend Niccolai. Augustine has at least one conviction – for burglary to a locked vehicle. Augustine has been referred to as “creepy” by other women involved in the local party.

Niccolai is due back in court on July 26, 2024.

  3. Well, in her defense, these “streaming services” can get expensive — and unwieldy in their numbers. I’d like to go back to the rotary antenna myself.

  4. If she hasn’t run them all off already, Jackie needs friends and a therapist. Life is hard sometimes.
    Pain in life is inevitable, though suffering is optional.

  7. Matt is creepy AF. At one point I thought he was married and asking woman out. Creeped out at an event at Masons. Avoided him like the plague since then.

    1. Matt is one of the creepiest guys I know. I also noticed every time he tells something it’s always a lie. Whoever he talks about he’s always lying. He is a creep. He’s made comments to me many times. He actually turned me off from going some of our meetings. The party should reconsider even have him around.

    1. The owner of Kick Stand Bar had all his charges dropped today for sexual assault. (False report) Let’s hope Josh gets the same outcome for Jackie’s false report. Jackie needs some serious counseling. She’s bat shit crazy.

  9. Anyone ever see the recent Netflix release Baby Reindeer?

    Looks just like something out of that with all the random emails.

  10. The local Republicans are likely in the dark about most of what she has done and who she is. I’m sure many would be quite suprised.

      1. They toyed with that idea once and then she was put out to pasture. Too many skeletons in her closet and too many cough cough infidelities, some with bigger names in the party… Too much drama.

    90% of them everywhere are criminal dirtballs

    1. My husband and I were foster parents for 17 years. Don’t classify us all in the Jackie Niccolai world!

      1. Did I mention you?
        I said 90% … not 100% …….. and it’s mostly the “agencies” and “personnel” who are to blame.

      2. She use to go to Journey Church. I wonder if she had any run in with that Pastor who was recording the other married women cell phone crazy stuff from last year?

  15. Where’s Straight White Male and his 2A infringement rant? His last one isn’t aging well on her first story 😂🤣

  17. Mr. Mathewson, The District Attorney’s office, who I am certain is acquainted with your articles, should conduct an investigation into the content therein. It is evident that an individual behaving in such a manner is undeniably under the influence.

  18. I hope she isn’t practicing therapy anymore, she isnt stable and is the last person to be helping others with their problems since she obviously cannot handle her own issues in a sane manner.

    11
  19. The neighborhood kids call her Cheeto Lady because they say When she goes by so does a bag of Cheetos. The older kids say it’s swamp ass, and it can clear up as soon she washes her butt.

  23. If she’s a huge republican. Why is she being friend with Roberts, berg and caputo? Makes no sense. Is she switching sides to go at KCE?

    1. Because they are as bat shit crazy as she is!! Wait until Stephanie realizes she’s a strong republican.

    2. They hate moms for liberty, republicans, guns, Just insane to see them all with her now just to spite a website.

      1
      2
      1. I’ll add: they mock religion, support abortion, support porn in our kids school libraries, anti police etc…

        1. They don’t “mock religion” they mock people who use it for their own purposes, claim to be “Christians” break every commandment, and wouldn’t know Christ if he sat at their kitchen table (like Jackie).

          They don’t “support abortion” the just believe that it is not up to you, or the government to decide.

          They don’t “support porn in our kids schools” they just don’t see issues with being honest about the fact that some kids have 2 mins, or 2 dads.

          They aren’t “anti-police” they believe that the police need support from social workers, psychiatric professionals, etc instead of having to go beyond their training.

          Etc.

          1
          1
          1. Um, I beg to differ. There are multitudes of examples of those new founded Jackie allies on the left. Some of which are criminals themselves. Did you hook up with her or doing her bidding while waiting your chance?

  24. This morning I read Kevin’s article here and the copyright commentary and the fake/pilfered website and I have to say
    that this woman needs help. She may hae been let go from her Kenosha job but I think that they could have given her some help along the way. This is an intellegent woman, Masters and worldly. If there was a toxic person,m she is it! If there was a person not willing to accept her own shortcomings, she is it! If there was anyhone who should be away from kids, She is it. She is angry at the world, angry at fingernails, angry at truthful words and has gone so far as to take the time and spend the money (???) to create a page to blog hatred against a person who might be the one person who has outed her need for help. A comment was made about Kevin only reporting on the Bad Guys. I dont know that that is truthful but it is for certain that if he does report on you in the negative, you deserve it If you disagree with me, respond with the url to your proof. I hope this womangets help and the ‘friends’ that she has should be helping her rather than joining her in attacks on another person/company. THis morning was a long read. I had hoped all the while for some redeeming grace. The only thing that I did find is that Kevin has proof of despair.

    1. If you google her, you’ll see she has died several former employers… offering her help probably happened, she just doesn’t see the need. She’s a professional victim.

      Her degrees are all online, she’s not as educated or weirdly as she presents.

      This woman is her own worst enemy, do not get in her wake.

  25. She needs mental health help. Something is very very wrong with her. I have been told she dabbles in black magic, and cut a friends hair, keeping some and putting a black magic spell on her. She is just a nut and should be monitored for life. Should not be allowed to parent at all.
