Did you really feel the need to not just take the photo of the drunk drinking his Old E but also to publish it? I would be pissed if I was Judge Mosley if after doing a decent right up about my historic home you link this random person to it.
Where do you get your historical information? Obviously much of it comes from the assessors office, but online records only go back to ~2002. Do you submit requests to the office in person? I would like to look up more about my own house.
I was at a wedding where Judge Mosley officiated. Everyone, most especially the bride and groom, were very impressed on how he conducted the ceremony. I have also heard that he does a good job in his role as a Municipal Judge.
If possible, Urban Milwaukee would do well to recruit someone to report on how the Municipal Court operates as it affects a significant number of people in Milwaukee.
I hope that you asked for Judge Mosley’s permission for posting this. Posting the location of a judge’s residence is irresponsible. I know it’s a public record and probably easy to Google, but this makes it easier. People do retaliate against judges sometimes. Maybe Judge Mosley does not preside over violent cases. Something doesn’t sit right with me about this.
I am normally a big fan of this column and enjoy Mr. Horne’s witty writing and thoughtful research.
