It seems that Wisconsin\u2019s Democrats are returning to their roots when their party championed the use of the \u201cN\u201d word. Spare me your lectures on bigotry\u2026 your silence says everything.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Two people who knew Janet Protasiewicz \u2013 her former stepson AND a long-time self-described liberal family friend of her ex-husband \u2013 told Wisconsin Right Now in recorded interviews that they heard Protasiewicz use racial slurs when she was a prosecutor in Children\u2019s Court. Both men, Jonathan Ehr and Michael Madden, told Wisconsin Right Now that they personally heard Protasiewicz use the \u201cN word\u201d to refer to blacks.<\/p>\n<p>Madden, Protasiewicz\u2019s then stepson, said in a videotaped interview that she used the \u201cN word\u201d to refer to blacks who were involved in court cases while she served as a prosecutor in Milwaukee County Children\u2019s Court, including the parents of black children and blacks accused of crimes.<\/p>\n<p>We asked Protasiewicz\u2019s campaign for comment at 10 p.m. on March 15. She has not responded. She has not denied using racial slurs despite being given an opportunity to do so.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"et_social_bottom_trigger\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post originally appeared at https:\/\/www.bootsandsabers.com\/2023\/03\/19\/protasiewicz-remains-silent-on-multiple-allegations-of-using-racial-slurs\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=protasiewicz-remains-silent-on-multiple-allegations-of-using-racial-slurs From Wisconsin Right Now.
