Looks like nothing has changed at the DA’s Office, just a different name on the door. So much for Solis being tough on crime……
Exactly
I don’t get it…what’s happening??? SMH
He got the Steinbrink special with a side of Kmiec
2 systems of justice who you or your family are and regular citizens. So much for Solis same as Gravely!
So sad.
Since the public has no idea how court works, you cannot prosecute without evidence. The strategy for weak cases is to over charge for several crimes hoping the defendant with plead to a lesser charge prior to court. There’s a large majority of prisoners in jail facing decades of incarceration, and after they meet with their public inept defender, it is clear they should plead out and take a year or two instead of rolling the dice with a jury trial for decades in sentencing.
Not everyone that goes to jail is guilty, not everyone who takes a plea deal is guilty, sometimes. Beyond reasonable doubt doesnt exist in online forums, y’all just want to lunch everyone accused.
Don’t you think his multiple restraining orders, background and overall public CCAP is enough proof that he’s a pile of garbage? Lol
He’s a big piece of shit. It’s sad people like this are alive. People like him are why today’s society is what it is.
If you’re going to assume the lofty position of condescension, at least check what you wrote.
You asshole.
Wow. Your smart!
*you’re
you are not so smart
🤭🤭🤭
Totally agree
This sentence is a joke, nice job Kenosha DA! You just let a rapist, woman abuser and loser with 4 OWIs off with a slap on the hand.
Barnhill family, man do they have a history of scum. From throwing a baby into a trash can to this character.
What a turd
He will kill somebody one day driving, he is a golden child and knows nothing else and to his narcissistic brain this will only add to the ego. Whatever the sentence and probation, you heard it here within first two years after release he will reoffend. Everything is cyclical and the best way to predict the future is through history.
Yup. And for people with a criminal mindset, why not reoffend when the punishment is so light? I can’t imagine how frustrating this process must be for local law enforcement. I had major hopes that sentences would be tougher under Solis. Shame on me for being so naive to believe anything that comes out of a politician’s mouth, regardless of affiliation.
Very disappointed in Solis right now
This judge is garbage!!! It is on his shoulders if someone gets hurt or killed
For people that personally know this piece of shit, your comment is spot on. He will reoffend, he will continue to drink and drive, continue to abuse women, both emotionally and physically. Why? Because he is the biggest narcissist I’ve ever had the displeasure of meeting.
Typical Boss Baby Jason Rossell aiding and abetting criminals. He’s got micropenis syndrome.
Isn’t this the son of the owner of the Coffee Pot?
Son of a bi*ch
No it is not
step son though right?
Step son, but that doesn’t matter. The entire Barnhill family is Kenosha scum.
The USA is a joke. Can’t people see that the system is corrupted! If you have connections and money you get one from of justice. No money or no connections then you get the other form of injustice. Your taxes go to this corruption every single day. Republican, Democrat doesn’t matter it’s all rigged.
Please self deport.
How in the fuck is this loser only getting 8 months. I’ve lost any faith in our local justice system and feel terrible for all the women that are scared of this guy. Fuck his family too.
he said to the victim: “I’m daddy, and you know you want this.”
please make sure he never sees his kid
Rossell and the DA as well as the defense attorneys are all in bed with each other.
If you don’t “know someone”, or related to someone, or have the cash to buy off a harsh sentence, your sentencing looks very different for the average citizen.
Drew Burgoyne isn’t in bed with anyone. He would be a great judge. Maybe next time he will run for judge and make a difference.
SMH
His poor little girl will always know her daddy is a complete idiot/creep/predator
Also a drunk tough guy on social media 🤣
Dude only gets tough with women cause he’s a bitch
Let’s not forget the thousands he has stolen from Toys for Tots.
I dont know this guy nor do I know this supposed family. But I have read it and have opinions. But I think the thing that really takes the wind outa the sail on this story are the comments. Can’t we state our thoughts and anger without using F bombs? It shows that persons lack of intelligence when resorting to using them. But flare away and call me what you may.
This guy is a bad dude and it looks like justice wasn’t served the way it should have been. Sad… very sad.
Word on the street is that this POS is out with an ankle bracelet on living with his mama.
