“Police sought a felony child abuse charge against a man who now serves as a Wisconsin legislator after he was accused of leaving 4-inch bruises on his child and told officers the Bible commanded him to strike his children as punishment, according to newly released records. The Brown County District Attorney’s Office never charged the lawmaker, Shae Sortwell, and did not explain its decision until eight years later in response to a Green Bay Press-Gazette inquiry.”

“The police investigation took place in January 2013, before Sortwell was elected to the state Assembly, but by then he was active in state and national politics and had served on the Green Bay City Council. Police were made aware of the alleged abuse after a relative discovered the five bruises while giving the child a bath. The relative took the child to a hospital in Two Rivers, according to 35 pages of documents obtained by the Press-Gazette through an open records request with the Green Bay Police Department” the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

You probably already correctly guessed it but here’s confirmation of what kind of Republican this asshole is in a December 2020 tweet: “We are dangerously close to losing our nation. Consider the collusion by multiple tech companies to shut off conservative speech. Consider how these same companies stepped up their censorship within days of Biden being confirmed the winner. Maybe you’d argue that these are private companies, but these actions seem to show us being dangerously close to an oligarchy Consider that it is still illegal to meet in churches in some states and parts of states. Consider that we’ve accepted that you do not control your body but rather it is owned by society for the benefit of society” and it goes on and on and on.
