    1. And yet, liberal judges/Court Commissioners shrug their shoulders at real POS and let them off easily.

      And 50% of the voting population continue to vote for these scum.

    2. There is a word… Well 2 in fact.. wood chipper and whatever word one can use to describe what they do to people like this in prison. Look into it. Fortunately a lot of them don’t make it out now since other fought to be in with general population. So they will get theirs in due time.

  1. As if the kid would grow up ‘normal’ being raised by these two. Everything happens for a reason, hope they are never around the said child again.

    30
    2
  2. It is crazy how these two women were arrested and detained when a similar situation occurred in Racine County in 2023 and the parents who were alleged abusers were never processed/booked. In addition, they didn’t have to post any amount of bond to remain free. Look up Jay and Tiana Kerner and their child abuse charges. The case was dropped because one of the victims would not testify despite speaking freely with investigators. He was probably too scared from the years of abuse he received. Our Judicial system is very flawed.

    13
    1. Well, it’s a different county, so you need to deal with your local representatives, and this child is brave, the child WANTS to testify, this child has a strong village that is supporting them after years of nobody listening to her or her father and these people telling others that she has mental illnesses, which she doesn’t.

      1. Official Photographer that Public Brewing Company in downtown Kenosha, fund raises for Women & Children’s Horizons.

    1. The article states she’s a 19 year veteran of the Zion police department. It also states she is 28 years old… So logic would say her work history is with the Zion police department.

      1. Because the cop is 40 and the mother of the child is 28, read the article. They both abused the mother’s child (the cop is the step mom or however you say that) child was screaming for help for so long and justice is finally being served. Both are disgusting humans. And they had a child through IVF as well.

        1. Oh boy, hopefully, these bitches make it to prison. But most inmates do not like child abusers! Fun times ahead for them! Disgusting! I hope they get their asses whooped!

  3. Need to get Michel & Masnica out of there for commissioner jobs and maybe being public defenders for Traffic Court, it would have to be a newly created position, but it might keep the public more protected than they are currently.

  4. I just never get why most lesbian couples have one partner that tries their best to look as male as possible- why would the “female” just not date or marry a male.

    11
    2
  5. I feel badly for the children that their own mother who choose to abuse them instead of protecting them. I hope the father gets full custody of these children. For the Attorney to say the younger child is biologically two women’s child is completely ridiculous not to mention absolutely impossible! This happened close to my home, it can feel a lot more personal and unsettling and even a bit shaken when it’s happening in your own neighborhood by someone who took an oath to protect and serve. I hope and pray justice is served.

    1. They have a 2 y/o that is the Cop’s Biological child, which her Wife carried. The abused child is 10 and has a father who has been trying for years to get full custody, the child is now with him…but he is still fighting for custody and the mother is STILL fighting Against it…
