| Sex assault charge against police shooting victim Jacob Blake dropped in plea deal |
| 2020-11-09 |
| [NYPOST] Prosecutors in Wisconsin have dropped sexual assault charges against Jacob Blake — the black man who was left paralyzed in a police shooting that sparked protests across the nation over the summer. Kenosha police were trying to arrest Blake in connection with the sex assault case on Aug. 23 — when a cop shot him seven times in the back as he tried to duck into his SUV. Blake had been accused of breaking into a woman’s home and sexually assaulting her in May. The case had been scheduled to go to trial on Monday. As part of a plea deal, the 29-year-old copped to two misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct, for which he was sentenced to two years of probation at a hearing over Zoom on Friday. In exchange, prosecutors dropped the felony third-degree sexual assault charge and a misdemeanor criminal trespass charge against him. During the hearing, prosecutors said that the alleged victim — who is the mother of Blake’s three sons — was not cooperating with the investigation and had walked back her claims, according to the Kenosha News. "This was an agreement reached partly because the victim in this matter was not responsive to the subpoena to appear in court," Walworth County District Attorney Zeke Wiedenfeld said of the plea deal.

| #4 was not cooperating with the investigation and had walked back her claims She's got her hooks into her share of the settlement money. If she won't tell the truth, then hit her with filing false rape charges. She can spend her share in prison on canned sardines and smokes. |

| #2 Questions: Was the VICTIM in a Witness protection program or left in the "project" & general population openly exposed to BLM and other threats? Or did the DA & Socialist Leadership of Wisconsin work out a Political/$$$$ Deal? |
