Key Highlights from Attorney Carl Johnson and The Journal Times:

“The state alleges he made the threat because he lost his federal lawsuit, which was untrue.”
Attorney Carl B. Johnson
Johnson also intended to introduce evidence that would call into question the trustworthiness of the confidential informant (C/I).“I think that’s ultimately what led us here today,” Johnson said of the case being dismissed.
Attorney Johnson intended to provide evidence the C/I was twice convicted of forgery, which would go to her honesty. Racine County District Attorney drops charges in an alleged scheme to kill a Kenosha deputy.
