Scott Walker Milwaukee County aide arrested

Reports Daniel Bice.

Criminal complaint to follow, whose allegations should be illuminating as to the ongoing investigation into Governor Scott Walker's cronies.

eta: Business setting theft over ten grand.
Also charged was Brian Pierick, Russell's longtime partner. Pierick was charged with one felony count of child enticement.
"Expose sex organ" in Waukesha County. Yikes.

Flashback: Tim Russell digging the dirt on Chris Abele (h/t BL)

Irony remains dead among the WISGOP crowd and their attorneys.

Child porn charges also. It just keeps getting better...or worse.
Why are so many of Walker's friends crooks and perverts? Just a coincidence? I don't think so.

I guess that the walker admin asked for investigation kinda slipped the minds of you legal eagles.

Actually I consider that the most significant revelation of Chisholm's presser. And I expect we'll never hear the end of it from you lot.

DA: You're looking at a long time behind bars. Is there anything you'd like to tell us?

Walker's public political positions don't seem very friendly to "domestic partner" situations, but here comes another person who worked with and for him--and for years--and it doesn't sound like Walker going to say, "didn't know...personal life...etc". So what is it, that he knew and didn't hold it against them? Gee, that's nice, the Eagle Scout preacher's son doesn't see people by sexual orientation--he just sees people! And maybe he thought after 10 years he could just do a referral to the Michelle Bachman's family business and get him to change teams? The incongruity of being so closely associated for so long with people he would ostensibly be offended by is a real head scratcher. By the same token, how does he still garner their support other than they are whoring out for the paycheck and county/state benefits...or is there some subversive plan to get into government and change it from within? While Walker was not implicated himself and nobody can control every single detail or action (although being so ignorant as to put this guy in the position to do this thing isn't a flattering claim to make), this parade of stories continues the saga of an executive that does not describe any people who are just doing in it for the public service.
