WAUSAU, Wis. – Congressman Tom Tiffany, who is running for governor, released a statement Thursday after Mequon police confirmed that an organized crime ring made up of illegal immigrants from South America has been operating in Wisconsin. Authorities said the same group is tied to more than a dozen home break-ins this year, and newly released trail camera footage shows suspects scouting residential neighborhoods.

“This is what Democrats imported into our country, and now not a single Democrat running for governor will condemn it or support removing these criminals from our communities,” Tiffany said. “I have fought for strong border security for years on the House Judiciary Committee. As governor, I will ban sanctuary jurisdictions and work with federal and local law enforcement to make Wisconsin safe again.”

On Wednesday, November 12, the Mequon Police Department hosted a regional information-sharing meeting for police agencies across southeastern Wisconsin affected by the recent burglaries. The department said the meeting was held to share intelligence and coordinate efforts regarding the pattern of crimes.

According to Mequon police, the burglaries share several common features: they all occurred between Thursday and Sunday evenings, with entry typically made from the backyard. The targeted homes were often located on cul-de-sacs or dead-end roads, near wooded areas or golf courses, and were unoccupied at the time of the break-ins. Stolen items have included jewelry, watches, designer purses, and cash.

Police said audible alarms and exterior cameras deterred suspects in several cases. Investigators also believe the criminals may have used trail cameras or other monitoring devices to watch when residents left or returned.

The department urged residents to immediately report suspicious activity to Mequon police and, if safe, obtain descriptions of suspects or vehicles, including license plates. Police encouraged homeowners to set alarms to audible, activate them even during short absences, and use both interior and exterior surveillance systems—tools that have proven effective in identifying suspects.

Mequon police said the agencies participating in the regional meeting will continue to collaborate and share information as investigations continue.

Tiffany, a Republican congressman from northern Wisconsin, received the endorsement of the Milwaukee Police Association on Wednesday.

    1. What are they going to steal there? Stuff from the outlet mall?

      They are targeting true high end homes. Not hunters ridge McMansions.

      1. Let people get away with crime and it spreads. Zoerner and these other democrats who support and protect illegal criminals need to go.

        1. The only place the Kenosha Kooks will be going is further rooter-rooted up your rectum. Look at how much trouble they cause DA Solis love the social feces they are dumping on the Citizen.
          An electorate stupid enough to vote for an D that switch hit to R (with a fully supportive R-Party full of lying garbage whose only concern is how far they can grift their way to plush pension or big payoff retirements) arguably deserves their misery, suffering or death when crime descends on them or their families personally.
          If you want to be free of the Blue social cancer, you have to move to a Red State or County locality with masculine dominant logical leadership that ensures that degenerated Blue femdomed eunuch and crazy wimin seeds cannot root in their communities protected with detective and preventative social control measures to ensure their static equilibrium in local peace with reasonable property tax rates.

      1. Unfortunately, Michels was a terrible candidate.
        Those running the Republican party in Wisconsin have been such idiots.
        Middle-schoolers could have done better.

      2. And the masses of dense morons will still go about like nothing is wrong until it is far too late and right on their doorsteps. They truly have no clue what they’re in store for. None whatsoever.

  1. I AM NOT AN ATTORNEY BUT: Hi, everybody! My name is Auntie Anita. Did you know that many of your attorneys in Kenosha (maybe all?) don’t know that an attorney can appoint THEMSELVES to your case in the Initial Hearing and their name will NEVER appear on your case on the Wisconsin Circuit Court website? There was this poor sap named Shane, and it happened to him in Kenosha. The attorney never invited Shane to his own Initial Hearing and never met with him. This attorney was never mentioned on Shane’s case because he was never appointed, never paid, and NONE of Shane’s other Kenoshan attorneys knew he existed either! Shane’s SECOND attorney, that Shane thought was his FIRST attorney, thought Shane gave himself an NGI instead of Not Guilty! He kept telling Shane that he was a brilliant football player but as stupid as they come. Interesting! All in one day in good old K-Town!

  2. I vote for the most qualified candidate to do the job regardless of party affiliation. Illegal aliens/criminals should absolutely be deported or put in jail. However, Tiffany’s capitalizing on a Mequon’s PD hosting of a regional meeting, regarding a local criminal enterprise, is a pure gubernatorial political rush to get a message out to SE WI voters.
    Tiffany has been in office since 2010. I expect a candidate wanting my vote to start detailing a platform of how he is going to reduce crime in Wisconsin, improve business, reduce medical costs, improve livability in our state, and more. He really picked some low hanging fruit to send a message to SE WI. For example, choose your favorite search engine and enter “criminal illegal aliens in (state of your choice)”. I really hope I don’t have to suffer through another group of candidates basing their campaign on sound bites and appealing to voter emotions.

    1. In other words you’re going to hold Tiffany to a higher standard than the clown who’s already got the job and you’d have no problems voting for another clown with a d behind their name.
