Crawford Continues to Peddle Lies at Expense of Survivors

MADISON, Wis. — In case you missed it, Susan Crawford is peddling lies at the expense of Wisconsin survivors. While Crawford and dangerous Democrats continue to cherry-pick the complex issue and reality of sexual assault kits, Wisconsinites know there’s more to the story; Susan’s stance is shady.

As Democrats try to twist history, the truth is that decades of Attorney Generals before Brad Schimel let these untested kits pile up across the state, Schimel was the only AG willing to put aside politics to deliver justice and closure for victims.

Crawford and her dangerously far-left friends can try to continue to mislead Wisconsin voters. Still, even Josh Kaul‘s current DOJ commend Schimel for bringing experts from all backgrounds together to address a critical problem and implement a long-term solution; just look at their up-to-date website:

No matter how distorted “Shady Susan” tries to make the story, the simple truth is that Schimel is a champion for survivors and was the only Attorney General in Wisconsin history to eliminate the backlog of rape kits; implementing real change for the benefit of Wisconsin survivors.

Questions for Shady Susan:

• Do you believe that testing kits should have overrode the decision of survivors, prosecutors, or hospitals – who decided against it?
• What do you say to the Democrat Attorney Generals who ignored this matter?
• Why didn’t you help solve this backlog when you were in the Attorney General’s Office?

“Susan Crawford is sadistic for twisting the truth and politicizing an extremely complex issue. Crawford’s blatant attacks on Schimel are also an attack on Jill Karofsky. After many attorney generals left sexual assault kits untested, Brad Schimel worked with key public safety experts and community members to implement a long-term solution that eliminated the backlog,” said WisGOP Spokesperson Anika Rickard. “Schimel and his Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) went above and beyond to prioritize the survivor’s privacy and sensitivity above all else, and it’s disgraceful she would spin it any other way. Under Schimel’s leadership, Jill Karofsky, local law enforcement, crime lab experts, and victims advocates went above and beyond to provide justice to survivors.”
