Madison, Wisconsin's Governor
Jim Doyle, yesterday, announced
that he planned to start the
removal process of a prosecutor
who texted sexual harassment to a
domestic abuse victim.
Wisconsin governors have the power
to remove county district attorneys
and other officials.
Governor Doyle, at a news conference,
was horrified with the behavior of
Calumet County District Attorney Ken
Kratz, 50.
Kratz admitted sending 30 text messages
in 3 days, last year, to a woman while
prosecuting her ex-boyfriend- Shannon
Konitzer in an abuse case.
Kratz texted sexual harassment minutes
after he told 26-year-old Stephanie Van
Groll, he was considering reducing the
charge against her ex-boyfriend per
criminal records. She wasn't in support
of the action.
Van Groll explained to state investigators
that the DA's text messages started coming
after she met with Kratz to be interviewed
about the case.
Kratz went on medical leave yesterday, and
hired an attorney.
