(Kenosha County Sheriff)
Kenosha, Wis. – A violent attack early Monday morning has left a woman hospitalized and a repeat offender back in police custody.
Early Monday morning, Kenosha police responded to a 911 call from the area of 54th Street and 14th Avenue, where reports indicated that a woman had attacked her roommate with a sledgehammer. Upon arrival, emergency responders transported the victim to a nearby hospital, and is expected to survive
After a brief manhunt, authorities located and arrested Jessica D. Lentz, 46, of Kenosha. The Kenosha Police Department has requested that Lentz be charged with attempted homicide in connection with the brutal assault.
A Troubling Criminal History
Lentz is no stranger to the Kenosha judicial system. Her criminal record spans nearly two decades, filled with felony charges that have resulted in minimal consequences.
- 2008: Charged with felony domestic battery and intimidation of a victim. She received a plea deal and probation, which was later revoked, leading to an eight-month jail sentence.
- 2009: Charged with criminal trespass to a dwelling and felony bail jumping—the felony charge was dismissed, and she again received probation. When she violated probation, she was sentenced to only 30 days in jail.
- 2013: Armed Bank Robbery – Guilty Plea (8 Years Prison)
- 2024: Arrested for felony cocaine possession on November 15. On February 19, Judge Angelina Gabriele approved another plea deal, granting her probation despite her extensive history of probation violations.
At the time of Monday’s attack, Lentz was still on probation from her most recent drug-related conviction. She has only one felony convictions due to the Kenosha County DA Office’s soft-on-crime stance.
Judicial Leniency Under Scrutiny
This case raises questions about the leniency of Kenosha’s judicial system, which has repeatedly granted Lentz probation despite her continued offenses. Critics argue that a pattern of light sentencing and plea deals may have contributed to the latest violent incident, leaving another victim suffering the consequences.
As the investigation continues, the Kenosha community awaits further updates on the victim’s condition and the potential charges against Lentz.
Lentz was recently recorded walking around in a bikini acting strangely.

Why on earth was she even granted a single plea deal??? 🤨

I was friends with her on Facebook just to watch the shitshow. Was sad when she got a new Facebook and o could no longer watch the show
I’d date her foresure
And get aids
Yep sounds like someone you would take home to mama. A sledgehammer?? Jeez, any one in the legal system ever think that she has anger issues? Wth?
She’s pretty hot for that part of town..Especially frolicking in a bikini.
Yikes!
Lock her up and throw the key away
Shes a prostitute
This bitch has been a piece of shit literally for 35 years……
Not o oy was she caught with cocaine in December 24. SHE WAS ALSO ON PROBATION AT THAT TIME AND THE THEY LET HER OUT WITHOUT ANY PUNNISHMENT. She should have still been in jail. More blood on DA Gravely and his horrible soft on crime policies. Glad he is gone.
I think there’s alot of ifs to this because the chick she did this to is my ex and I know that bitch and I promise she didn’t do this for no reason, just saying.
Yeah…no excuse? A sledge hammer for real?
