Mukwonago Taco Bell Co-Worker Assault Case: Alexander Van Wyhe

The case involved a 15-year-old co-worker Van Wyhe met while they both worked at a Taco Bell in Mukwonago. The case also highlights two distinct issues raised by a teen’s employment: workplace rules for minors and the law governing the assault conviction. Neither should be treated as proof of the other. The Wisconsin Court System’s jury instruction for second-degree sexual assault of a child states that consent to sexual contact is not a defense. That general legal rule does not independently establish the facts of this case.

After Fatal Muskego Motorcycle Crash, Criminal and Liquor-License Reviews Remained Unresolved

The questions raised by 18-year-old Joshua Schladweiler’s fatal Muskego motorcycle crash involve two separate processes: whether prosecutors would file criminal charges against his mother, Angela Schladweiler, and whether Big Bend would take action on Papa Stache’s liquor license. FOX6 News Milwaukee reported that nearly four months after the crash, police had referred four charges to the Waukesha County District Attorney’s Office, which was reviewing the materials and had not filed charges at the time of the report.

The Most Romantic Steakhouse In Wisconsin Is Tucked Away Where You’d Least Expect

A dining room that started life as an 1861 hotel now serves A5 Miyazaki Wagyu and blue cheese-crusted filets. That combo alone made me sit up and start checking my calendar. The Greek Revival building was once the largest public building in its tiny town. A still-active railway line runs right across the street, which feels almost too charming to be real on a date night.

Man sentenced to decades in prison for threats made while incarcerated

A Milwaukee man was sentenced Oct. 27 to two decades in prison for numerous instances of harassment, death threats and stalking, committed while he was incarcerated at Green Bay Correctional Institution. The sentence is added to a four-decade prison sentence he has been serving since 2023 on similar charges – meaning Lonny Mayer will likely spend the rest of his life in prison. His earliest possible date for release on extended supervision is in 2070, when he would be 100 years old. "The defendant in this case was a menace who used threats to try to avoid being held accountable,” Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul said in a Nov. 4 statement . “The lengthy sentence he received shows that those who engage in the kind of outrageous conduct that he did face substantial prison time.” A jury convicted Mayer, 56, in May of 23 felonies across two cases. The first, filed in July 2023, was for stalking and abusing a woman he had previously been in a relationship with, and who was the victim in multiple existing criminal cases. The second, from 2024, was for making death threats to a prosecutor. His total sentence for those charges is 20 years
