KENOSHA, Wis. — Criminal charges against a Kenosha therapist accused of repeatedly violating a harassment injunction were dismissed Friday by a Racine County judge on a technicality — but the Kenosha County District Attorney says he intends to refile the case. Niccolai’s OWI case, 5-count Misdemeanor case involving criminal Defamation, Computer Message-Threaten/Obscenity, Disorderly Conduct, two counts of Bail Jumping, and civil defamation suit remain pending.
Jacqueline P. Niccolai, 37, had faced two misdemeanor counts of Knowingly Violating a Harassment Injunction stemming from a pair of Facebook posts she made in July 2025 on a page owned and operated by this author Scanner Watch of Kenosha County. Each count carried up to nine months in jail and a $10,000 fine.
The case originated in Kenosha County, where Kenosha County Circuit Court Commissioner Lisa Bouterse found probable cause after charges were filed. Because all Kenosha County judges recused themselves from the matter, the case was transferred to Racine County, where Judge Craig (D) dismissed the charges without prejudice on May 8, 2026.
The dismissal has its roots in an ambiguous statement made by Kenosha County Circuit Court Judge David P. Wilk at the May 22, 2025 hearing at which he granted Mathewson a four-year harassment injunction against Niccolai. During the hearing, Wilk commented that Kenosha County Eye, LLC was a separate legal entity from Mathewson and that Niccolai could contact it without violating the order. Wilk did not issue a written order elaborating on that statement. Niccolai’s defense seized on the comment as blanket authorization to post on any page connected to Mathewson. Judge Craig agreed. Mathewson has a pending motion asking Judge Wilk to issue a written clarification of what he actually meant — a motion that has gone unacknowledged for more than 70 days.
District Attorney Xavier Solis confirmed Friday that he intends to refile the charges.
The charges stemmed from two separate incidents in July 2025 in which Niccolai posted comments directly on a Facebook page owned and operated solely by the protected person. In the first, posted hours after her booking photo from an OWI arrest appeared on the page, Niccolai tagged the page by name and wrote “What drugs? Other than rumored drugs” and “Cute lol” — mocking comments directed at a post about her own arrest.
In the second incident, Niccolai returned to the page and posted a lengthy comment in which she wrote, in part: “first of all, it’s an injunction, not a restraining order you fucking idiot… Some bunk ass site that was created by someone clearly retarded… I am certain you’ll delete this comment because you’re a pussy ass bitch.” In that same post, Niccolai explicitly cited Judge Wilk’s ruling as her justification for posting.
Kenosha Police documented both incidents. Officers confirmed Niccolai was fully aware the page belonged to the protected person — she had publicly identified it as “Kevin’s other page” on her own Facebook page weeks before the injunction was even issued.
The protected person, Kevin Mathewson, founder and editor of Kenosha County Eye, released a statement following the dismissal.
“Judge Craig lacks a basic knowledge of criminal procedural law and dismissed this case, temporarily, on a technicality,” Mathewson said. “I am glad the charges are being refiled. Being called a ‘pussy ass bitch’ and having someone say my page was created by someone who is ‘clearly retarded’ is exactly the kind of conduct the restraining order was meant to stop. A judge dismissing this on a technicality does not make it acceptable, and it does not make it legal. Based on my experience, in my opinion, Scott is a DEI appointee from Tony Evers (D). “
As of Friday, Niccolai was celebrating the dismissal on Facebook. Her celebration is expected to be short-lived. District Attorney Solis has confirmed the charges will be refiled.
Kenosha County Eye will continue to follow developments in this case.

Leave this poor woman alone. She’s hot, sassy, and entertaining. You take things way too literally. We need more therapists like her, not fewer. I know I’ll get bashed for backing the drunken, drugged, sassy therapist — but I happen to like cougars who can light up a wild Miller High Life night at the Do Drop In tavern. funny video from nicaragua https://rumble.com/v79fzri-moms-message-social-security-vs.-real-rates.html

An idiotic response to facts
Yea dennis you just don’t quite get how this world works and you should take this very literally when scripture says all who commit adultery with the forbidden woman, the married shameless whore, will NOT go unpunished and will suffer affliction and torment. This freaky sassy therapist you like so much was coordinator of the victim witness advocates under Gravely the DA before soldass, and she was friends with my wife of 25 years and told her how to prevail on a fake domestic against me they are o for 4 but my children have been kept from me and believe you me, you will all pay twice for the pain confusion and deprivation of my children to access their father when they so choose. I admonish you to not clap back at me you are half retarded enough and under a spell like the rest of the zombies in kenosha but I assure you, the long game that evil people and officials like to play thinking they can starve out or break the righteous warms my heart as I see their end coming and I smile and say to myself oh you like the long game mother f’er? Good now time for you to be schooled and the torment you wanted to achieve on the innocent to boomerang back to you with twice the impact and it’s not coming, it’s here, and his name is YHWH and he ain’t playin
And the first thing she does is run to Facebook and post. Like a highschool kid. Who the fuck has that much time for all the court hearings and Facebook drama. Be a mom and quit listening to berg and caputo!
Kids have to be embarrassed as hell
I really enjoy this page. I think it is a benefit to the community to have a journal with the courage to report the unsavory. You get a bad rap with a lot of people that don’t understand what things are public record. I think extending an olive branch to this women could help your public image. She is in a lot of trouble for some foolish things, hard to watch her spiral. You could be the turning point in her life, itd to see a story where the 2 of you forgive and forget. Both take down the online stuff and let her start over with diginity.
Sorry but I’m never going to forgive and forget when someone calls me a pedophile, a child rapist, a woman beater, and a child beater. You are crazy if you think I’m going to let something like that go unchecked. I’ve got a 4-year restraining order against me and she violates it almost daily.
If they do a movie…will she be played by Carlotta?
It is about time she pays for what she has done
People like yhis chick don’t have the mindset to change. She likes the drama.
Kenosha using Racine to do their dirty work….
I had her a a therapist in my teenage years. She always helped me in ways it felt like other therapists could not. She helped me though this content is concerning
lol you’re still nuts
Lock her ass up
I feel sorry for her kids. She’s a mess. She’s a lousy and irresponsible mother. Somehow, she still has a license to advise other people how to run their lives. You can’t make this stuff up.
i still need her to fix my up comming case in front of angelina gabreil
Should get someone to fix your spelling
Unfortunately my toxic trait is hot messes, but she’s a fire hazard. Dayum.
Namaste queen. lol
Crooked Chad Kerkman used the old Michael Gravely trick. Send the case to Racine for it to get dismissed by their liberal friends. Terrible crooked judge
What a psycho. Has how many more open cases plus a DUI and she’s posting about just one, all while just asking for another charge.
Clearly a whack job who is excelling at destroying herself on her own.
Jacqueline Niccolai,🤔 I could use a good therapist for some substance fueled ” therapy “…..maybe twice.
