The alleged professor of law went on to warn "you people" on Twitter they may be subject to a defamation action, apparently either unaware or forgetful of the substantial burden imposed on public figures (e.g., Prosser) which requires proof a defendant acted in "actual malice."
And all of that addlepated nonsense packed into one "tweet."
Anyway, now Althouse has her source:
"The facts are that I was demanding that [Prosser] get out of my office and he put his hands around my neck in anger in a chokehold," Justice Ann Walsh Bradley told the Journal Sentinel.Prosser denies everything.
Following which report Althouse adds, "From what I have heard, Bradley is significantly larger than Prosser." What, she's never even seen them?
It's strange that Althouse, who allegedly professes the law in Madison, Wisconsin, has not attended a hearing at the State Supreme Court, which also sits in Madison (just a brief sashay down State St. in fact).
Justices Prosser and Bradley sit side by each (second and third from the left,* respectively, where the latter appears no larger than the former).
And damn near everybody is "significantly larger" than Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson,** who Prosser previously threatened to "destroy."
Althouse could measure their physical attributes as they ascend the bench, in order to confirm her own "unsourced" assertion that "Bradley is significantly larger than Prosser," whatever that's supposed to mean.
Did not David slay Goliath?
Moreover, Althouse might do well to revisit the law of self defense, if that is indeed among the topics she allegedly professes to law students.
You don't get to strangle somebody who merely raises their hands.
* Conservative hero Mike Gableman is on the far right, where he invents the Supreme Court's jurisdiction from whole cloth and forward slash.
** Not only have I seen the Chief Justice, but I have met her, more than once, and I'm not even an alleged University of Wisconsin law professor.
eta: Much, much more from Wis. Atty. Briane Pagel.

Ah, the time-honored tradition of victim blaming. Nice to see Ann falling into line.
I wonder if Prosser communicated to Althouse in code by blinking.
Dear god.
Bradley is larger than Prosser, although not "significantly larger."
Actually Old Ann gets most of her information by reading messages printed on people's clothes.

Is Althouse calling Bradley fat? (She is not by any stretch of the imagination.) Keep it classy, professor.
Read her latest moronic attack on Bill Lueders.
Maybe one of them sits on a telephone book.
Depends which city. I recommend the Uniform Commercial Code.
If Bradley's larger than Prosser (which of course in Althouse's world means it's okay for him to strangle her), then he must be a dwarf, as the normally-sized men in this photo tower over Justice Bradley: http://www.wicourts.gov/news/thirdbranch/current/images/vetschipvalley.jpg
That must have been one of the photos Althouse lost when a well funded liberal conspiracy deleted her blog archives.
"...strangle...?"
Did you say STRANGLE?
You are such a contemptible worm.
I know I have no chance of arguing -- let alone convincing -- you that Prosser did no wrong. None of us are going to be satisfied until every witness is deposed, or otherwise gives a statement under oath. That can't happen soon enough for my tastes. I don't care if it hurts Wisconsin, or the state's Supreme Court. And I suppose one side might be very disappointed by a review of all of the transcripts. But I am not letting go of this story. I want scorched earth in this investigation. Common sense tells me that Bradley and Abrahamson are both hysterical bitches. And by bitches, I don't mean female dogs, but rather female persons who happen to be mean, nasty, whiny, disagreeable and obnoxious. It is just easier to say "total bitches."
Charming.
"...strangle...?"
Did you say STRANGLE?
Why yes, yes he did say "strangle."
The illusory tenant -- keeping it... classy.
