KENOSHA, Wis. — People closely involved in a long-running harassment case say they are increasingly frustrated with what they view as a lack of meaningful intervention from the court system, despite repeated allegations of restraining order violations, missed hearings, competency concerns, out-of-state criminal allegations and ongoing fears for public safety.

Court records show Amy C. Poull, 37, has been involved in multiple criminal and civil cases in Kenosha County over the last two years, including harassment restraining orders, allegations of repeated unwanted contact and disputes involving her child and family members.

In one Kenosha County criminal case filed in January 2025, Poull was charged with five misdemeanor counts of violating a temporary harassment restraining order. According to the criminal complaint, deputies were called to a Salem Lakes home after a woman reported that Poull continued contacting her despite having been served with a temporary restraining order days earlier.

Authorities alleged that Poull sent multiple messages on Jan. 4, 2025, including statements about suing the protected party, messages referencing an upcoming court hearing, a photograph of the restraining order itself and a video sent after deputies had already arrived at the home.

The complaint also alleged that Poull tagged family members in disturbing social media memes and videos that insinuated violence or featured characters associated with death and chaos. Deputies wrote that the protected party told them she feared Poull.

When Poull was taken into custody on Jan. 6, 2025, authorities said she admitted sending the messages.

Court records also show that Poull was the subject of a separate restraining order filed in 2025 involving the father of her daughter. That order prohibited contact with him and the child. People familiar with the case say the family has repeatedly reported alleged violations to law enforcement, including hundreds of phone calls and messages, contact through family members and employers, and concerns that Poull may attempt to remove the child from school or take her out of state.

Those close to the situation say they have repeatedly expressed fears that the conduct is escalating and that more serious violence could occur if the behavior is not addressed more aggressively.

Publicly available records show Poull has missed court hearings, failed to comply with ordered evaluations and had warrants issued in connection with some of the cases.

In another troubling development, Poull was reportedly arrested in Indiana on a felony battery allegation before later returning to Wisconsin. Family members say they informed Kenosha police about the Indiana case and Poull’s outstanding Wisconsin warrant during more recent contacts with law enforcement.

Despite that history, they say they have been frustrated by what they view as repeated leniency from the court system.

On April 2, authorities provided a victim information form related to another reported incident involving Poull. The document listed the Kenosha Police Department as the investigating agency and referenced a 2026 case number.

Then, on April 4, Poull was arrested during an unrelated neighbor dispute. Despite the existing allegations, prior restraining order concerns, an out-of-state felony allegation and her history of failing to appear in court, Liberal Activist Supplemental Court Commissioner Aileen “Half-Off” Henry reportedly released Poull on a no-cash bail.

People close to the case say they have repeatedly reached out to both law enforcement and prosecutors for help but feel they have received few answers about why the alleged violations and ongoing concerns have not led to stronger action.

The case highlights a broader concern often raised in Kenosha County court proceedings: whether repeated harassment allegations, restraining order violations and missed court appearances are being taken seriously enough before someone gets hurt.

For those involved, the concern is no longer simply about unwanted calls or social media posts. They say it is about protecting a child, keeping their family safe and trying to prevent what they fear could become a much more serious situation.
