Man gets jail time for assault
A 67-year-old Kenosha man must serve six months in jail for inappropriately touching a cognitively disabled woman.
David L. Kramer faced 25 years in prison if convicted of second-degree sexual assault of a disabled adult. That felony charge was changed to two counts of fourth-degree sexual assault, both misdemeanors.
Kramer pleaded no contest to one charge, and the second was dismissed.
Kenosha County Circuit Judge Mary Wagner could have ordered nine months in jail.
Instead, Kramer will serve six months with work release and credit for 41 days already served.
A hearing was scheduled for July to decide whether he must register as a sex offender.
Kramer was charged in December 2009 after a 28-year-old woman said Kramer touched her breasts and private areas while driving her during his job at Southport Transportation.
The woman said the touching took place between July and December 2009, when she reported the incidents to her mother. Another passenger also claimed to have been molested, but no other charges have been filed.
Driver, who lost hislicense in 1990, in OWI
A Kenosha man who lost his right to drive nearly 20 years ago has been charged with driving drunk for the fifth time.
James D. Gaddis, 51, has been charged for drunken driving, obstruction and driving after his license was revoked. If convicted, he faces nearly five years in prison.
He was arrested in January after an officer spotted him driving without headlights near Roosevelt Road and 22nd Avenue in Kenosha.
Two people swerved to avoid Gaddis, who also drove through a stop sign, a criminal complaint says.
After he was stopped, Gaddis ran.
Police arrested him in a driveway in the 6500 block of 16th Avenue.
Gaddis lost his driving privileges in October 1990, records show.
His license has not been reinstated, but he has been convicted of drunken driving since then. His most recent conviction was in May 2006 in Illinois.
Gaddis was in jail because he had not posted a cash bond.
Woman arrested againin drunken-driving crash
A Kenosha woman who lost her license for driving drunk has been charged with driving drunk again.
Deanna L. Demoulin, 47, was charged with injuring another driver and driving after her license was revoked.
If convicted, she faces more than seven years in prison.
Demoulin was charged after a January crash near Seventh Avenue and Sheridan Road in Kenosha.
Another driver had a broken rib, as well as neck and back injuries, because of the crash.
Demoulin admitted being involved in the crash on the way to pick up her child, but could not remember what happened, a criminal complaint says.
She also admitted drinking.
Police found a cold, open beer and two others in a cooler in her car.
Demoulin told police her driver’s license was revoked because she “did not attend the stupid meetings” she was ordered to attend after being convicted for drunken driving.
Her license was revoked in December 2008 and had not been reinstated, records show.
Demoulin was in jail because she had not posted bond.
No increase in taxes. Zero change.
Costs go up; a modest increase is understandable.
It's time to cut taxes; give us some relief.
