Whereas, the Wisconsin assembly desires that the Wisconsin attorney general
5continue to work together with and have at the ready all the resources from the state
6department of justice that the Dane County district attorney needs to prosecute; and
AR14,1,107
Whereas, the state department of justice was a partner in both the
8investigation and the prosecution of
State of Wisconsin v. Scott R. Jensen in the first
9trial, which resulted in a conviction of one misdemeanor while leaving open the
10question if felonies were committed, which is why a retrial is needed; and
AR14,1,1311

12intends to retry the case if justice cannot be served, which is what our taxpayers
13deserve out of their public officials; and

1Whereas, the attorney general has conceded that he could indirectly influence
2the district attorney's decision for a retrial in
State of Wisconsin v. Scott R. Jensen 3by denying the help of an assistant attorney general, now, therefore, be it
AR14,2,7
4Resolved by the assembly, That the Wisconsin assembly expresses its desire
