Wisconsin Is a State of Men and Women Because the Rule of Law Is Perishing; Attorney General Josh Kaul Is Complicit and Insidious

The Wisconsin Department of Justice continues to betray
and destroy as the world watches the degradation in
post-conviction litigation against Steven Avery.
Attorney General Josh Kaul (D) is on point, in
defending the work of disgraced ex-DA, Ken Kratz,
and the criminality of Wisconsin law enforcement.

The Whole World Is Watching Wisconsin -

Post-conviction attorney, Kathleen Zellner, will be offering a live question-and-answer session on Twitter, Feb. 12 at Noon.

Update: In response to questions from our friends overseas: Targeting people is in itself tyrannical.

Wisconsin does not have a state Grand Jury system. But when someone is transformed from a person of interest to a "target" in a probe or a grand jury (in other states) or a federal investigation, formal procedures and notifications kick in to protect the soon-to-be-accused.

Not so in the Avery case. Law enforcement targeted Steven Avery and then set about to plant evidence, manipulate and manufacture evidence, even destroying exculpatory evidence.

This is tyrannical and despotic — the opposite of what American criminal justice is supposed to be. And this is what Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul is defending, in an unethical fashion to boot.

Madison, Wisconsin — "Despotism is a plan alone, without law and without rule, leading all its will and caprices," intoned the satirist, poet, and social contract theorist, Montesquieu. "To become truly great, one has to stand with people, not above them."

In opposing post-conviction litigation against the wrongful convicted Steven Avery, (Making Murderer), Wisconsin Attorney Josh Kaul (D) is offering polemics, pointless antagonism and defense of apparent criminality and willful violation of constitutional rights and state law committed by Wisconsin law enforcement. Avery's rights, no matter the misconduct of law enforcement, are to be opposed, believes Kaul.

Kaul is delaying the inevitable, defending a miscarriage of justice and doing dishonor to Wisconsin.

I have lived in Wisconsin all my life, and I do not see the bottom, though Josh Kaul is dredging the filth of Wisconsin as he blocks, obscures and delays, motivated from a pathology only Kaul can truly explain.

Post-conviction attorney, Kathleen Zellner, will be offering a question-and-answer session on Twitter, Feb. 12 at Noon.

The event follows a new filing in Avery's case before the Wisconsin Court of Appeals, District Two.

And it follows new evidence demonstrating outright criminality, banditry, by multiple law enforcement jurisdictions.

AVERY: We are READY to do a Twitter Q & A tomorrow (02/12) at NOON re the missing MCGP bones. Have your questions ready. #AskZellner #WorkwithZellner #MakingAMurderer @Newsweek @guardian @BBCWorld @TheTelegraph__ @digitalspy @TheSun

Wisconsin media and citizens the world-over will tune in.

Yet, as each new piece of evidence pried from east-central Wisconsin law enforcement reveals duplicity and willful targeting of an innocent man, innocence advocates are already speculating what remedies exist to meet the challenge of systemic criminality.

We need a special prosecutor appointed, and independent and transparent investigation opened, and a complete audit of all evidence. @WisDOJ and @GovEvers quit tacitly supporting officials who aided and abetted murderer of Teresa Halbach!!! https://t.co/JcCkcZU7s6

To paraphrase Archibald Cox: Whether we shall continue to be a state of laws is now for ultimately the Wisconsin people to decide.

Making a Murderer — Wisconsin Sheriff's Deputy Implicated by New FOIA Documents

Manitowoc County Sheriff Dept Lt., Andrew Colborn, (Ret),
was implicated in misconduct in the second Steven Avery
frame-up, becoming a major disgraced public figure, as
documented in Making a Murderer, and
Wrecking Crew, Demolishing The Case Against Steven Avery,
(Ferak).

Update: Steven Avery's post-conviction attorney posts new filing Feb. 11 with Wisconsin Court of Appeals, Dist Two.

Madison, Wisconsin — Among the cast of rogues in the Making a Murderer docuseries is Manitowoc County Deputy Sheriff Andrew Colborn (ret).

Much of Colborn's public conduct as a public official was criticized at the public 2007 trial of Steven Avery.

But Colborn appears frightened.

So frightened that Colborn filed a defamation suit against Netflix and the creators of Making a Murderer earlier this year. Most legal observers believe that this opens Colborn up to extensive sworn examination and scrutiny.

The contents of some 300 documents obtained in a new Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) revealed the weekend of Feb. 8 by supporters of wrongfully convicted Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey, appear to implicate Wisconsin law enforcement in misconduct.

The documents are housed online at Google Docs.

The documents are entitled CASO Ledgers for Calumet County Sheriff's Office (CASO).

One of the FOIA documents show Colborn's time-sheet is contradicted by his sworn testimony at the 2007 trial.

This supports a theory advanced at trial that Colborn came upon the murder victim's missing car and did not report the find.

The car later turned up mysteriously at Avery's property in plain view, a development that helped to convict Avery.

Writes one innocence advocate:

Colborn was most likely on duty on 11/4/2005 when [passer-by] Rahmlow told him about the RAV 4 in Mishicot. We asked MTSO [Manitowoc County Sheriff Dept] for clarification, and they provided time cards that show Colborn was off the 4th-6th. Weird, bc [because] he testified to working 5th and 6th. Hmmmmm.

Revelations such as the above lead advocates to speculate that the 2007 trial may be vacated soon, a development hat may lead to Avery's (and by logic Brendan Dassey's) exoneration.
