Judge Crawford in Waukesha Freeman: “Wisconsin deserves better: Brad Schimel’s failure to protect survivors of sexual assault”

MADISON, Wis. – In a powerful new op-ed in The Waukesha Freeman, Judge Susan Crawford lays out Brad Schimel’s disturbing record of failing sexual assault survivors during his time as Wisconsin’s Attorney General.

“Nine kits tested out of over 6,000 in two years. That’s Brad Schimel’s record,” wrote Judge Crawford. “We have a saying in the criminal justice system: justice delayed is justice denied. Brad Schimel denied justice by letting these kits sit untested while predators walked the streets.”

Now, politician Brad Schimel has been scrambling to spin his well-documented record of failure. But the facts remain clear: Schimel is responsible for denying survivors justice and putting Wisconsin communities at risk.

“We cannot elect an extreme politician like Brad Schimel to the Supreme Court,” Judge Crawford continued. “In a single term as attorney general, he failed countless victims of sexual assault. Voters should not entrust Brad Schimel with a decadelong term on the Supreme Court.”
