A newly-elected Trustee in the Village of Salem Lakes was arrested this morning and charged with disorderly conduct. Jared Young, an eight year veteran of the U.S. Army was arrested just after midnight on June 5, 2023. Young, who was honorably discharged from the Army for PTSD, completed his second tour in Iraq even after being injured when his Humvee came under enemy fire.

According to the criminal complaint and a source that was present during the incident, Young became concerned when he learned his children were up very late Sunday night at a bon fire. He went to the location where the children were, and became verbally upset. He argued loudly with an adult at the fire. There were no allegations of any violence or harm done to anybody at the gathering.

The Kenosha DA’s office initially charged Young with two counts of disorderly conduct, a class B misdemeanor, which is the second lowest class in seriousness of punishment.

KCE spoke with Young Monday afternoon and told us “I fought for this country and the rights we all enjoy. I am presumed innocent of this charge and will be fighting it in court. I will not be resigning my position. I am looking forward to moving past this and working hard for the people of Salem Lakes. My attorney advised me against saying anything else at this time.”

  1. I think at this point he should be looking at social media posts by an ex trustee and a very boisterous C.W.B that is calling him a woman beater on the ex trustees social media page and her own page. This behavior is ridiculous and slanderous.

    1. ex trustee is just bitter this isnt getting the same attention his issues were. He claims to take the “higher ground” on his fb posts, yet runs his mouth like no other.

      1. He just wanted the new arrest of his son swept under the rug, not have so many see it. And this made it perfect. Everyone around him can talk about this guy and not question the arrest, him home, etc. When you have a blatant bond violation occurring in your home, while you, an attorney is present, well let’s just say, wrong. Brings to mind 2004, Birdsall. But of course, that was a bit different, but it brings it to mind. But to concentrate on someone else while you have issues, what was it, the ones with the loudest voices.

    2. I tried looking up who the previous trustee was with the initials of CWB but could find them. Who is CWB?

      1. Friend of ex trustee. She edited her post on his page, but the edited post can be seen. And deleted her post on her page though claimed it was removed.

  2. He called the ex trustee for legal counsel ???? but wanted to slander him during election.

    CWB can post whatever she wants based off ccap info. Nothing slanderous there.

    1. CCAP says nothing about wife beating. As his witnesses say is was verbal. Assuming someone is something they are not then spreading that assumption verbally or on social media is definitely a problem. CWB or Haha, you should know that.

      1. Oh Haha or CWB removed it. Lol. Said it was reported, but the ex trustee’s page was not. Haha posted their too as did other’s about woman beating. Guess Haha was worried? Guess her assumption that CCAP said he was a wife beater was incorrect. Covering her behind while trying to pretend she was reported then bragging on the ex trustee’s page.

        968.075  Domestic abuse incidents; arrest and prosecution.
        (1)  Definitions. In this section:
        (a) “Domestic abuse” means any of the following engaged in by an adult person against his or her spouse or former spouse, against an adult with whom the person resides or formerly resided or against an adult with whom the person has a child in common:
        1. Intentional infliction of physical pain, physical injury or illness.
        2. Intentional impairment of physical condition.
        3. A violation of s. 940.225 (1), (2) or (3).
        4. A physical act that may cause the other person reasonably to fear imminent engagement in the conduct described under subd. 1., 2. or 3.
        (b) “Law enforcement agency” has the meaning specified in s. 165.83 (1) (

        2
        2
        1. Another word for “charge modifiers” here would be “penalty enhancers”. In this case, “domestic abuse” means that the crime involved parties who were in a “domestic relationship” as defined in the statutes; usually, that’s charged when it’s people who were or are in a relationship.

          2
          2
          1. You must not be understanding 1-4 that person haha or cwb or whatever that person is wasn’t lying if this is what the statue is … Not sticking up for that person but just putting the fact out there.

            “Keep a watchful” is this supposed to be a threat ? Or you just ashamed that no one wants to fit it in the narrative and see that a newly appointed trustee has a case against him.

            How is it right for others to be throwing false Info around about the former trustee but than if it is “supposedly” shared by the former trustee and people are commenting what the charges are all hell breaks loose?
            1. Intentional infliction of physical pain, physical injury or illness.
            2. Intentional impairment of physical condition.
            3. A violation of s. 940.225 (1), (2) or (3).
            4. A physical act that may cause the other person reasonably to fear imminent engagement in the conduct described under subd. 1., 2. or 3.

            3
  5. What unit was he in for all that to happen. Wisconsin has had about 2 major BDE deployments and anyone down south here were mainly support roles.

  6. When a former Salem Lakes Board member Stops rerouting/ hiding/pulling in favors & sweeping the reoccuring felony charges against his son under the carpet. (nothing to see here) Then I’ll pay attention to a dad showing concern for his kids attending a late night bon fire. Lets see, hiding charges of Drug Use, Drug Possession, Multiple DUI’s, destruction of property, weapon possession, human endangerment during drug induced rampages. Using a moving vehicle as a weapon & I know I’m missing other offenses.
    OR…a Father who got aggitated over his kids attending a bon fire that went too late in the evening? And he’s the one who gets arrested? Well, there’s a Lot to see here & this is only 1 reason why the Salem Voters cleaned house & chose a new team representatives in the last election.
    Keep a watchful eye.

    1. THAT’S being a GOOD Dad concerned about his kids! Maybe if the previous official did what this Dad did and showed some concern for his child when he was younger, his son might not be in such a mess! BTW, isn’t it illegal to post someone address for I’ll intent? I understand it’s public knowledge if a person individually looks it up for themselves, but I didn’t think it would be legal to post it on Social Media for I’ll intentions.

      4
      2
  7. I’m nervous about rushing to any judgments here. The addition of the domestic abuse enhancers suggests this may have been more than a neighbor dispute. Without more facts it’s hard to say.

  8. I went to his group campaign event “Meet and Greet” in Trevor just before the election.
    Jared was 4 beers in at 3 in the afternoon on a Sunday. And still going.
    While anyone is entitled to enjoy themselves partaking in adult beverages whenever they’re inclined, doing so while meeting with potential supporters was not “in my opinion” the right time or the way to get my vote.
    I support his desire to know and choose where his children are but a good parent “knows” where their young children are 24 hours a day, Not just finding out at midnight after the fact.
    Maybe working on keeping a intact family unit should be his direction rather than getting three sheets to the wind . PTSD aside children are better off with two parents in the home supporting each other rather than going off in different directions because their own desires change. Once two people decide to procreate they are obligated to those they brought into the world until they too become adults. Hard to do that when they don’t honor their own obligations to each other.

    1. Seeing as though there is a comment about 3rd party pick up, one would assume that he’s divorced. I would infer then that the ex wife has the children out late on a school night. Dad expressed his concern, new boyfriend inserted himself into the conversation. Only a DV modifier because of the ex? Must be nice to live in a glass house, unfortunately when there are 2 homes one doesn’t know where their child is 24/7 when the other parent refuses to co parent. Of course this is all speculation

      10
      1
      1. First of all we should all be aware that Jared came from behind everyone sneaking up with a bat that he threw at the swing set right before approaching a group enjoying a bon fire he then starting yelling at his wife and screaming while kids as well as his kids are present kids starting crying and went into the house he was asked to leave and he used vulgar language and refused to listen for the part of him being a concerned parent that is not the way a sane parent goes about it he knew exactly where his kids were and if it was such a bad environment for kids then the police would of removed them and not arrested him and not to forget the constant harassment he is doing to his wife also the bullshit about her having a boyfriend that inserted himself into the situation is false the only man that intervened was the home owner that was asking him to leave also there is no school and no curfew when parents are present in a backyard but thank you so much for all your false thoughts should probably get facts before posting about a situation you weren’t at

        10
        9
        1. Hard for you to understand the world “speculation” I guess. Mother of the year here I see…. Keeping your kids out late at a bonfire on a school night.

          2
          2
    2. I mean let’s be honest….there are 3 sides to the story here and there always is when two parents are divorced and presumably don’t get along. There are tons of ulterior motives always….so who the fuck knows what happened here. It’s pointless to even speculate. Guys can be shady assholes but women can be really spiteful and shitty, too, in these situations….

  9. According to Michael Graveley, a father should not be upset about his kids when they’re out late past their curfew. Then Graveley charges the father for making his opinion known when retrieving his kids, Freedom of Speech.
    Apparently, Graveley is upset that a parent, not lacking in child obedience, is making those deviants he coddles look bad.
    Graveley must be bothered by the fact that some father’s still have testicles.
    This issue has become a weaponized attack by the DA’s office against a father and a Village elected official and should not even be in court.

    11
    2
  10. These charges are absolutely nonsensical and definitely going after him because he is more conservative than the other losers on the Board. He should have been upset if his kids were not at home when they were supposed to be—i would have done the same thing!

    9
    4
  11. Just saying
    It is understood. Look at the law, enhancement or modifiers , why or how they are used. The included example used here shows the domestic abuse charge, battery, from CCAP for a party who also was on tape during their “act”. The tape is available for viewing or listening,until the caller shows his bloody arm. It was not just a disorderly charge with a modifier. So, actually the tape was pretty much evidence, so really people should not discuss others ?

  12. Another stupid vet, so ignorant that he believes what he fought for in Iraq was in the name of freedom. He fought for banksters and a filthy gov that is criminally charging him for something ridiculous. He was trying to protect his kids as he sees fit. Another adult hanging out with kids, most likely drinking was involved, he become upset. Alcohol leads to rape, which he knows clearly,. Don’t blame him. Most vets struggle with relationships, so ex-wife bs, and confused kids caught in the middle, some call it the American Fake Dream. The author wrote the story to promote the fact that the mercenary was a vet serving in one of the forgotten sand wars. Look how he starts the article. Anyway, read all about vets and fake wars in my book the totalitarian two step available on Amazon Dennis jantzen written from my ranch in Mexico

    3
    12
    1. Thank you Senor Jantzen. You may be the only one besides me that gets how it all works. Room on the ranch for a fellow Israelite?

  13. What’s with these elected idiots all being criminals? Berg, cardinali, this guy. Bunch of low life clowns And use their service as a get outta jail card

  14. Charges will be reduced to a ticket at most, if not fully dismissed. If he were black he wouldn’t have been charged at all. The DA already knows this, but they can use the charges to keep him under bond conditions for a while.

  15. This is a great example of the DA’s office and inconsistency in application of charges. another recent charge for a KUSD employee, (touching a teen, threatneing to shoot ) is a simple Disorderly Conduct months after the original arrest charges were dropped and now they charge this guy twice? Good thing the Court Commissioner agreed.

  16. These kids in the county have been having bonfires and parties for years. This is nothing new. They also drive around without a license in a golf cart just like their drunk parents with toddlers hanging on for lives on main roads with a $50 permit. That board member can get a way it because Salem Lakes takes care of their own and we know it. Everyone here knows the rules.
