PLEASANT PRAIRIE, Wis. — A Kenosha woman accused of stealing a Pleasant Prairie firetruck while naked, making bizarre transmissions over the department's radio channel, and driving the emergency vehicle through the village was released Tuesday after a court commissioner set her cash bond at just $200. During the hearing, her attorney raised concerns about her competency, prompting the court to order a competency evaluation. Pleasant Prairie Fire Chief Craig S. Roepke told Kenosha County Eye the incident resulted from an unusual set of circumstances after a department vehicle was inadvertently left outside with its keys inside while firefighters were outfitting a new apparatus. He said the firefighter responsible immediately accepted responsibility and described the incident as a "perfect storm" rather than a pattern of negligence.

  1. Lake Michigan or Lake Andrea? Either way is the officer that found her naked going to receive any kind of PTSD counseling? I’m worried for them.

  2. Is that supposed to be 63 years old? That’s a rough ass 36. You know if you’re naked, 36 years old, trying to steal a fire truck, and naked on top of it, that only means you seriously methed up in life!
    It’s funny, but also sad at the same time. Obviously that is someone with serious mental health issues!

  3. As a valuable firefighter to the community, I’m grateful she was able to keep the rig safe so it could resume in service.

  4. Does anyone remember the comedy routine about “No jive headlines”? This one would qualify: “raised concerns about her competency.”

  5. the firefighter took ……. “responsibility and described the incident as a “perfect storm” rather than a pattern of negligence.”

    No ! Let’s play this out. A possible scenario…..

    “ Sometime after midnight a 36 year old female climbed in an unlocked vehicle and went joyriding around town. Instead of no harm no foul, imagine if she started hitting parked cars. Imagine if she went into the bar district and ran down some unsuspecting people walking on the sidewalk or across an intersection correctly with the lights. Imagine if she ended up crashed into a tree or put the truck in Lake Michigan. Then drowned ! “

    All of that didn’t happen ! But it could have !!

    “ Perfect Storm ? “

    A perfect storm is when obviously harmless things come together and as a group they become harmful. This firefighter says his perfect storm was the fact that THE ONE NIGHT he decides to be careless and leave the keys in an unlocked vehicle WAS THE NIGHT that a naked woman would amble on by and just so happen to CHECK THE DOORS and then FIND KEYS in the ignition of a GOVERNMENT VEHICLE !!!!!!!!

    Pattern of negligence ?!?
    It was exactly that !!!

    Who knows how many time this guy or any of these fighters just randomly leave vehicles outside at night with the keys in them thinking that it would take a perfect storm for someone to walk on by and jump in ?!?

    This “firefighter” needs a month suspension without pay, (and that includes not allowing him to take PTO or Vacation Pay) to be punished for all the possible bad outcomes that didn’t happen.

    And if he doesn’t get suspended then the village needs to fire the chief and or the commission that oversees this department.

    Perfect storm My Ass !

      1. The dumb drunk stoned crazy bitch didn’t hit just one car in her travels.
        Imagine the lawsuit for the village.
        Hit a person ?
        Ten times the lawsuit.
        Threaten a cop that might try to stop her ?
        Someone could have gotten shot.
        I don’t care you think it is all speculation.
        Only one thing had to change in his “perfect storm” for it to be a “perfect fuck up” !!
        And he wouldn’t pay. The taxpayers would.
        That’s me and you !!
        That’s Drama

    1. You have no idea. I’d bet money, leaving the keys in the trucks is extremley common. You just don’t expect people to steal them. And they usually don’t. Could you imiane being on a call and need to move the engine but Billy is on the 3rd floor fighting a fire with the keys in his pocket? I’m sure this happens all across the US but they just dont want to announce it.

      6
      1
        1. Oh yeah,what could go wrong with announcing to the public that keys are left in the trucks all the time? lmao

  6. I heard she thought it was Cutstone Food’s pizza firetruck and she was gonna get unlimited pizza, that’s why she stole it. Why she was naked, I don’t know but I’m sure she’s just living her best life





  7. Listen folks, I say we all pitch in a couple of bucks to post bail. Let’s think about the situation before us…. FLOCK cameras hold lots of precious metals that are valuable to someone who wants some easy scrap money for booze. If we want to stop the emerging surveillance state being created before us, then desperate times call desperate measures.
    Let’s say we post her bail. Let’s also say that we give her a map with all of the flock cameras within a 50 mile radius. Let’s just say nature will take its course….





    3
    4
  8. Is anyone else’s senses telling them that there is a lot more to this story that isn’t being told?? Something is amiss, and it has to do with her being naked. It has to do with her being near that truck, and it has to do with it being open…..

  9. This is the kind of entertainment I like !
    Thankfully there were no pictures.
    Stay tuned for her next caper !
