Kenosha County District Attorney Mike Gravley is a soft-on-crime DA and his Number 2, Carli McNeill, has promised to continue Graveley’s practices and policies. Graveley wants her to win so bad, we can smell it. Graveley has seemingly found several ways to “cheat” and use taxpayer resources to get his buddy elected. KCE will be highlighting soon, just how bad of a prosecutor Carli is. She has one of the worst trial records in her office. She has lost a lot of jury trials. Not minor trials, but trials with victims of serious violence. Either she took innocent people to trial, or she let guilty and violent people free by her incompetence. Graveley, arguably is among the best trial prosecutors. His policies and managerial style are garbage. He lets his prosecutors do whatever they want. One employee of the DA’s office got slapped with a restraining order for seemingly threatening her step-daughter with a gun – no discipline. A prosecutor and wife to James “Lunchbox” Kraus, Emily Trigg, was so negligent in the prosecution of a shaken baby case that the case was thrown out by Judge Kerkman (rightfully).  Trigg was the prosecutor for State v. Caroline Prieto. Prieto was accused of shaking a baby and leaving the baby permanently disabled. Trigg ignored a court order for 2.5 years to produce a witness list. Her defiance of the court’s order caused the case the be dismissed. Again, no discipline issued by Graveley, the Number 2 at the time.

KCE Will lay out just four of the most egregious acts taken by Graveley to give an unfair advantage to McNeill.

Law Enforcement Memorial

At this year’s law enforcement memorial, on the stage were Number 1’s. The Mayor, Police Chiefs, Sheriff, etc. The only Number 2? Carli McNeill. She was, in fact, the keynote speaker, even though Graveley was in attendance, as shown above. She alluded to the fact that prosecutors have a dangerous job just like cops. Wrong! Cops’ jobs are more dangerous. She’s talking about a time when a water jug was thrown at her in court, narrowly missing her. This gave McNeill a lot of time in front of many people and important people at that. Why didn’t Graveley Speak? We asked Graveley when the last time a DDA spoke at such an event. He told KCE that he did when he was DDA running for DA. Notice a pattern?

County Board Supervisor Orientation

During an orientation for newly-elected County Board Members, there was a spot for “Elected Officials.” On this list? Elected officials, of course – except one name that is not an elected official, Carli McNeill. Why would a beaurocrat be on the list of elected officials? She’s never been on a ballot in her life. Another edge Graveley gave his buddy. Graveley should have been there, not his Number 2. She got time in front of powerful people as to help her campaign.

New Facebook Page

Paid Advertisement

The Kenosha County DA’s Office got a spankin’ new Facebook page. Mike Graveley never wanted a Facebook page. Now, just a few months before the election, one pops up. And what is on that page? A mention of how great McNeill is. The page posted a criminal complaint that McNeill signed. Her name is right on the bottom. We asked Graveley via public records who has access to this page. We suspect McNeill only has access. He isn’t providing that to us, maybe we will have to sue him for the 4th time?

Deferred Prosecution Agreements Being Hidden

Perhaps, the most egregious thing Gravley has done, is to break the public records law to shield the voters from knowing how many people have gotten Deferred Prosecution Agreements, or Diversion Deals. (Don’t worry, have are suing for their release) These deals take people who are arrested by police, and sign a contract to go to anger management and stay out of trouble for six months and then poof, no charges. Their name never enters the court system. KCE has contacted all 70 DA’s in Wisconsin. Most don’t use such liberal agreements. 15 have provided KCE with copies of DPA’s. Apparently Graveley either thinks he’s smarter than these DA’s, or he doesn’t want us to know how many people McNeill is giving these breaks to. Both scenarios are equally troublesome. Is Carli handing them out to her friends? Family members? Probably not, but we’ll never know, unless we prevail in court (we think we will.) As one DA told KCE, “It is my office’s general policy that [a case] warrants a pre-charge diversion agreement, then that case should be charged because the case has prosecutorial merit.” That’s what a tough-on-crime DA does. If leniency should be shown, it should be a Judge, not a DA’s office.

Kenosha has gone so far as to offer DPA’s to illegal immigrants arguing that they save money by avoiding interpreters. KCE calls BS. Carli didn’t want to talk to KCE about this secret program, but she did take to Facebook, as shown above, to write, in part, “It’s no secret that we at the Kenosha DA’s Office are proud of our diversion programs. The goal of a criminal prosecution is not just to get a conviction and diversion programs often enable us to address the underlying issues that led to the criminal behavior….This enables the court system to save taxpayer money by avoiding repeated court appearances that require interpreters plus the time of Judges, prosecutors, and defense attorneys.”

Conclusion

This County will be better without Graveley at the helm of the DA’s office, but how much better if his handpicked successor takes over? Maybe worse? Let’s look at the riots. KCE will be telling its readers about how easy Graveley and McNeill took it on the rioters and looters during the Kenosha Riots. Most got fines and probation. For burning our city to the grund? For the fear? Death?

The bottom line? Mike, stop putting your thumb on the scale. Stop rigging the election. Stop using tax dollars to help out your buddy. Enough is enough. If you’re confident in Carli’s skills and leadership, she doesn’t need your help. We don’t think she can with without your shenanigans.

  3. I’m a proud Independent voter, and I have to support Solis in this upcoming election.

    The diversion deals are no sense, and the DA’s office is beyond compromised by yes-men that have gotten much too comfortable.

    We need a harder stance on crime in Kenosha. Too many repeat offenders are coming in and then OUT of our jail system. Only to commit more egregious crimes.

    Vote Solis. We need a change.

  5. The unfortunate reality is that the Kenosha Republicans have been dropping the ball lately. The (R)s on the county board have allowed the County become a woke, DEI-infested employer with ultra-woke Tappa running the show, largely unchecked. Kerkman has been a sorry excuse for a County Exec, dropping the ball at nearly every turn. She had the opportunity to get rid of some very woke, liberal, and opposite-of-fiscally-conservative directors, but she didn’t. She’s let these directors spend MILLIONS in excess, while she is busy smiling for the camera. She’s allowed employee turnover to skyrocket, costing the county hundreds of thousands of dollars, ignoring employees who are openly telling her how bad things have gotten, in favor of listening to her failure of a personnel director. Nedweski has been a bit of a dud- pushing Vos’ agenda as opposed to really doing some good. She fizzed out hard after her Parents Bill of Rights. She’s another one who smiles for the camera but has otherwise been a disappointment- she definitely followed right in Kerkman’s assemblywoman shoes.

    Hopefully, Solis wins. Kenosha could use some good, strong conservatives in leadership. If he wins, maybe theres hope of getting a conservative into the Executive’s office in 2026.

        1. Don’t confuse Republicans with Conservatives. Sam is a very good, typical Republican. She toes the party line, says all the right things, but her actions aren’t that of a responsible, intelligent fiscal conservative.

          An obvious first move would have been to cut that DEI position as soon as she was granted the authority to relieve division directors of their position. An interesting FOIA pull would be to see how much money the county has invested in the DEI position, and the various types of training associated with it (racial ethnic equity training, servant leadership training, etc.). Another quick fix would be replacing her personnel director, who has set the county up for massive turnover— and has lied about it at every turn. Exit interviews aren’t happening— despite the BS she feeds the county board.

          Both of those things are HUGE money-wasters, and such an easy fix. Retention is much cheaper than constant turnover.

    4. No kidding on the wasteful spending- DPW has how many engineers? 4? 5? And they spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on engineering consulting firms? Either the county-employed engineers are ineffective and need replaced, or someone needs to do closer oversight on their consulting “needs.”

  6. KEVIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Can you please tell us where Kenosha is keeping the illegals in town?
    I have been compiling a list of homes just based off of the campaign signs, pictures of the signs and jotting down the address.
    After the election is over I will have a sizable list of where we can send illegals to so they can get some housing, food and a place to use the wrapper. Many of these homes don’t have a gun so the illegals may be able to walk through the front door just as easily as they crossed the border.
    If having illegals here in America is OK for one party, we should be keeping tabs of what people are voting for it.

    So if you could find out where these illegals are staying I’d love to get them a list of addresses where they can go to to get out of the cold this winter.
    THANK YOU!

            1. Attention weird and creepy lady:

              I believe you are violating federal law and engaging in voter intimidation. I am also pretty sure I know who you are. On Monday, I am going to report your actions to the Milwaukee field office of the FBI.

              If Kevin has any sense, which I believe he does, he will delete your felonious posts to protect himself from being dragged into the investigation of your warped violation of federal law.

              1. Nobody is trying to intimidate or doxx anyone.
                You want to support candidates that allow illegals coming into this country, you should be the first on the front line to help and house these folks.
                I also know that most of you ILLEGAL supporters are without guns. I have a gun, if you enter my home without being invited it will be messy. I don’t want to see anyone get hurt.
                I don’t understand why some of you have a problem with this, it’s what you are voting for this election. I’m helping YOU out to be a better person.
                You are welcome!

              2. Hey notaretardrddrmocrat:

                Every time you write something you make it worse.

                Your convoluted explanation that you are not trying to intimidate voters, which is a violation of federal law, does not immunize you from prosecution. I suggest you read the totality of your posts on this thread. It is a classic and textbook case that you are trying to intimidate the people at the addresses you published. You should be begging Kevin to take it down, if he is not smart enough to do it himself. Also, you should pray that nothing bad happens at the addresses you published. That would be icing on the cake of your federal prosecution.

                Stop being so stupid and endangering the idyllic life that you claim you have.

              3. Hey Anonymous,
                Here I am, a person looking out for ILLEGALS, wanting to help them out. And here you are, a clear democrat not wanting ILLEGALS knocking at your door at 3am, 8am or whenever they show up and you not wanting to help.
                Do you see the absolute hypocrisy that comes from your mouth? You vote for people that allow ILLEGALS into our country but you don’t want to help take care of them……….Im flabbergasted!
                As in typical democrat form, let someone else deal with the problem I helped create.
                So hypocritical you people are!

              4. Notaretardeddemocrat:

                You should stop writing. You are making it worse every time you type.

                You can try to make up some weird excuse saying you are trying to help people. But you are not doing that. You are trying to harm and intimidate potential voters for their beliefs.

                You wrote this earlier in this chain: “I’m looking for you and people that vote like you to pay the price for that, . . .”

                Take my advice. Stop being stupid and don’t write anymore. Beg Kevin to delete what you wrote to minimize your risk of prosecution.

              5. Dear Anonymous, Yes, you get to pay the price of feeding and housing ILLEGALS!
                Someone has to, it shouldn’t be the general public, it should be the ones that want to vote for those who allow ILLEGALS into our country. That’s YOU!
                Don’t you realize the sign in your yard screams that you want to help?
                I’ve got democrats living on both sides of my house, they don’t have signs saying they want to help, you do, so you get to help, that’s what your signs are saying. I’m surprised you can’t make that connection. That’s weird and creepy that you want others to take care of ILLEGALS.
                I’ll be out tomorrow collecting more addresses.

                Again, it’s OK for you to put others in danger, all the while ignoring the consequences of your actions. Typical democrat thinking. Grow a brain.

                Did you forget about something called the first amendment?
                You use it when you put that trash in your yard telling everyone which team you play for and that you support ILLEGAL activity.
                Didn’t democrats post a Supreme Court justice’s address and go protest and threaten outside his home? Which is highly illegal, btw. How many of those protestors were arrested?
                Put your money where your mouth is and take some of these ILLEGALS in to your own home!
                Otherwise you are just a hypocrite like you have exposed yourself to be.
                Come back later for the next address drop!
                And with every post you make you just show the world how you arent willing to help ILLEGALS, you want others to. Typical.

              8. It was deplorable that some people published the home addresses of some of the Supreme Coutt justices. I hope the people who did that were prosecuted. They should have been.

                That incident does not justify what you did and claim you intend to do again. Publishing the addresses of people who have Harris signs in their yards could easily qualify as voter intimidation, which is a federal crime. Just because other people are stupid enough to break the law in the same way is not a defense. Ask the 1,000+ people who were part of the herd that breached the Capital on January 6th how that defense worked for them.

                Most smart people know the 1st Amendment is not absolute. There is no 1st Amendment right to incite violence, which is what you are trying to do. You are taking a big chance with what you are doing.

                Tomorrow, I contact the Milwaukee field office of the FBI. Yes, what you are doing is that serious.

              9. Why are you waiting?
                Do you actually think the FBI closes on weekends?
                Who is the idiot now? Do want me to look up the number for you?
                When you tell people you want ILLEGALS here, you should be the one to help host them, no inciting violence like you claim, try again.

              10. Actually, in Wisconsin, the FBI does close on weekends unless they are summoned by state or local law enforcement due to some significant event/emergency that requires federal intervention. Your transgression does not qualify as needing immediate attention.

                Monday during normal business hours is fine.

              1. My guess would be none because I’m pretty sure dems don’t want illegals here either, but they are stupid enough to vote for those that let illegals come here.

    1. Get a clue. Kevin considers you to be a useful idiot. He is way too smart to actually want to hang out with someone as stupid as you. Trump feels the same way about the trash that worships him.

      I hate to be such a buzz-kill.

      1. I’m not doing this for Kevin, I’m doing it for safety of my family.
        You voted for illegals coming in and you will vote for it again.
        I’m looking for you and people that vote like you to pay the price for that, seems like it’s what you want.

            Yeah, well, the kid, a college graduate from a pretty good University out east is living a fabulous life in Pleasant Prairie in a beautiful house with a couple of awesome grandchildren that we get to see grow up in a loving and nurturing family. We were there yesterday as the youngest took his first bites of puree and to see the look of something new was priceless. Yeah, I’m weird and creepy and love my family to pieces and want to keep them safe. At least I’m not a democrat, that would make me a low life and slimy, like you.

            1
            1. A DAY IN THE LIFE OF SUE (AKA notaretardeddemocrat) THE REPUBLICAN:

              Sue gets up at 6 a.m. and fills her coffeepot with water to prepare her morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards.

              With her first swallow of coffee, she takes her daily medication. Her medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to insure their safety and that they work as advertised.

              All but $10 of her medications are paid for by her employer’s medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance – now Sue gets it too.

              She prepares her morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Sue’s bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.

              In the shower, Sue reaches for her shampoo. Her bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for her right to know what she was putting on her body and how much it contained.

              Sue dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air she breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air.

              She walks to the subway station for her government-subsidized ride to work. It saves her considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.

              Sue begins her work day. She has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Sue’s employer pays these standards because Sue’s employer doesn’t want his employees to call the union.

              If Sue is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, she’ll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn’t think she should lose her home because of her temporary misfortune.

              Its noon and Sue needs to make a bank deposit so she can pay some bills. Sue’s deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect Sue’s money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great Depression.

              Sue has to pay her Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and her below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided that Sue and the government would be better off if she was educated and earned more money over her lifetime.

              Sue is home from work. She plans to visit her father this evening at his farm home in the country. She gets in her car for the drive. Her car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety standards.

              She arrives at her childhood home. Her generation was the third to live in the house financed by Farmers’ Home Administration because bankers didn’t want to make rural loans. The house didn’t have electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it didn’t belong and demanded rural electrification.

              She is happy to see her father, who is now retired. Her father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Sue wouldn’t have to.

              Sue gets back in her car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good. He doesn’t mention that Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Sue enjoys throughout her day. Sue agrees: “We don’t need those big-government liberals ruining our lives! After all, I’m self-made and believe everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have”.

              6
              6
              1. A liberal governor in Minnesota running for vice president put tampons in boys bathrooms across the state. Maybe so the boys could use them to put them in their nose when it bleeds or they can use them to shove up their rectum when they get triggered and butt hurt.
                When you go to vote for this guy and his cackling boss, you lose the right to call any Trump supporter weird and creepy.
                True story!

                4
              2. That precious little grandchild of yours may turn out to be gay or trans. When that happens, your tune will change when he or she experiences the hatred of weird and creepy people like you.

                3
                3
              3. Really fantastic rhetoric. Got a few laughs. Glad you’re here in the muck of the comments section making a bit of sense and bringing a sense of humor.

  7. Question why did the Police and Sheriff union endorse McNeill for DA? Law enforcement puts their life on the line every day dealing with career thugs with bigger guns etc. only to see cases thrown out by DA office? I sure want someone backing law and order in my corner. Union members is your life worth voting and endorsing someone who does not back you??

    15
    1
    1. Check your work. Did the Board of Directors for the KPPA endorse Carli or did the membership? Big diff there. Board is maybe 7-8 guys being political while the rank and file have no voice. The Board speaks for things they should not. Always has and always will.

  8. Deep state at work. Nothing will change other than the usa falling further down the toilet. Keep dreaming because it’s only a dream.

  9. Another Kenosha Steam Baths member, he is still mad that he has to leave his beast on the sidewalk outside. No matter how hard she tries your still stuck with the wrong plumbing, in other words Ruff Ruff Moo.

    4
    1
  10. There are two models for running a District Attorney’s office.

    One — which has been Kenosha’s experience — is for a skilled trial attorney to be DA. Mike Graveley, Bob Zapf and Bob Jambois were all courtroom warriors. They were not necessarily the best managers.

    The other is to follow the example of baseball where the best managers often were not the stellar players on the field. They understand management: getting work done through others and their duty to acquire and provide the resources to get the job done. In an urban prosecutor’s office you can’t expect one person to do it all so there is a need to develop and support courtroom talent. This is not some podunk county. For example, the sheriff doesn’t take a patrol shift every day. He has a staff to do that. Given our population and caseload growth, the “good manager” model may be worth a try.

  11. We can only hope that the liberals that put that handsome woman into office will be the ones who suffer the crime that’s committed because they won’t prosecute criminals nor effectively.
