KENOSHA, Wis. — Chevrolet J. Mason, 22, is again facing a first-degree child sexual assault charge after a Kenosha County judge vacated his conviction and reopened the case, acknowledging that critical mistakes were made by the court, prosecutors, and defense counsel during the original plea process. Mason is now being held on a reinstated $15,000 cash bail as the case moves back toward trial, a development that carries enormous risk given the time he has already served.

Sick fuck
A total waste of tax money to retry a case to absolve technical legal errors if the original sentence was fully time served. No surprise the prior Democrat DA and his ADAs screwed up. The kid was 18 and the girl, 14. Any additional time served due to this additional process may well be ripe for the State to get sued. Potentially a very lucky Chevy Van – he may yet win a big jackpot haul…IF he gets an attorney with the right chops and legal engineering skills to swing it should double jeopardy or other legal procedural infractions of statutory application are in play by the pleasure police zealots.
Jason Rossel strikes again – he’s as dumb as his face is round.
Shane Burt was given a 45 years and 9 months sentence for an NGI (Not Guilty by reason of Insanity) plea that Shane NEVER asked for. Shane wanted a Not Guilty plea, but he was never invited to his own Initial Hearing. The attorney who showed up, without Shane, was named Sloan. Sloan was never appointed and never met Shane to this day – 25 years later. The Clerk of Courts did not and will not put Sloan’s name on Shane’s case even though Sloan was instrumental in the direction the case took per the transcript. The prosecutor also lied on the Criminal Complaint. Lies, lies, lies is what condemned Shane for an ultimate down to 30 years. Shane never sexually assaulted another, but many MURDERERS never even get that many years. So, 5 minutes of knocking someone off their bicycle and sitting on them is worse than a murder? Frankly, whoever wrote above must not be an attorney. I am not either. However, if this guy accepts a plea and is released it doesn’t mean that he is free. Whether or not the judge says it or not this guy will probably have a lifetime registration as a sex offender. When murderers are finished with their sentence they are just let them go – not so with sex offenders. The US Constitution is 250 years old and only truly stupid people would discount it. Besides, Shane’s “care” has cost millions while the prosecutor and the attorney who showed up that wasn’t appointed are “safe” because Wisconsin has Statutes of Limitations on their lies, games but that doesn’t free Shane! I heard Wisconsin has the lowest money given of $25,000 for suing Wisconsin when WI is at fault – not worth 25 years of Shane’s life – no wife, no kids, no family. That’s sick! I do not know if this guy is innocent or guilty, I just know how Kenosha unjustly dealt/ is currently dealing with Shane.
