Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke, noted for his top-notch managerial skills, has come under fire from the union representing corrections officers at the Milwaukee County House of Corrections for his attempts to enact staffing changes in violation of negotiated labor agreements (emphasis mine): Clarke said he decided to use the sergeants as backup [...] Posted by Zach on December 24, 2008, at 11:33 am
I suppose it’s only fitting that former Milwaukee County House of Corrections Superintendent Ron Malone’s ID card and badge turned up in a toilet at the HOC last week, considering it could be said his career’s in the toilet as well. Malone has done a terrible job as Superintendent at the HOC, resulting in [...] Posted by Zach on August 30, 2008, at 9:17 am
This past Wednesday, inmate Martin Williams escaped from the custody of the Milwaukee County House of Corrections after overpowering the lone corrections officer escorting him to a doctor’s appointment at St. Luke’s in Milwaukee. Williams was caught six hours later during a traffic stop, and when he was arrested he was in possession of [...] Posted by Zach on April 8, 2008, at 6:07 pm

After all, who can forgot these humdingers: Taking [...] Posted by Zach on January 24, 2008, at 8:39 pm
Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker has talked a lot about his desire to close the Community Correctional Center – Milwaukee’s Huber work release facility – and replace it with GPS monitoring for offenders who would have otherwise been housed at CCC. Walker’s touted his plan as being one that will save the County – [...] Posted by Zach on November 27, 2007, at 7:26 am
This past weekend, I blogged a bit about some of the crazy stuff happening at the Milwaukee County House of Corrections and its work release facility, CCC. I noted the fact that when asked about inmates being allowed to stay up until 3:30 a.m. on the weekends, Ron Malone, the Superintendent of the HOC, [...] Posted by Zach on November 24, 2007, at 5:09 pm
…but things have been busy, to say the least. Between a boy with a broken arm, a computer that took a dive, and a work schedule that’s been hectic, there hasn’t been much time for BloggingBlue. But all four of you out there who still surf on by every once in a while can [...] |
