16-Year-Old Identified In Jerry Smith Pumpkin Farm Gun Scare Had Prior Weapons-Related Police Contacts; Juvenile Court Hearing Expected This Week
KENOSHA, Wis. — A 16-year-old accused of bringing a handgun into the corn maze at Jerry Smith Pumpkin Farm, one of Kenosha County’s most beloved family destinations, has been identified by Kenosha County Eye as Jose Emanuel Cruz.

Deputies ultimately recovered an unloaded 9mm handgun and an empty 30-round magazine from the corn maze. Cruz has a history of previous law enforcement contacts, including weapons-related complaints, raising questions about how the juvenile justice system will handle his latest encounter with law enforcement. Kenosha County Eye made the difficult editorial decision to identify Cruz in the interest of transparency and public safety. Although juvenile proceedings are generally handled differently from
We Warned That Someone Could Die: Now A Man Released By “Catch & Release” Kellum Is Dead — Opinion
KENOSHA, Wis. — Setting bail for defendants accused of violent crimes or sexual assaults, especially those involving children, is among the most consequential decisions made in a courtroom. Get it wrong, and innocent people can be hurt or killed. Kenosha County Eye has repeatedly criticized Court Commissioner Daniel “Catch & Release” Kellum for releasing defendants accused of serious crimes on no-cash bail. This publication believes his decisions reflect a misguided, politically driven approach to criminal justice that places too little emphasis on the risks associated with pretrial release. But there is another danger that rarely enters the conversation: What happens when a defendant facing decades in prison is released without posting a penny and then takes his own life? William E. Frazier Jr., 58, of Kenosha, accused of sexually assaulting

A Dying Kenosha News: Faded Newspaper Boxes, A Chipped Window And Dwindling Square Feet Tell The Story Of A Once-Mighty Local Newspaper
KENOSHA, Wis. — A chipped window, a police investigation involving questions about Mexican landscapers, an increasingly empty newsroom, and yet another move into a smaller office space. For the once-mighty Kenosha News, the signs of decline are becoming difficult to ignore. In May, Kenosha police responded to a complaint involving a damaged window at the newspaper’s Green Bay Road location. An officer approached a neighboring business and asked whether its landscapers might have kicked a rock into the glass. But according to information obtained by Kenosha County Eye, the neighboring business owner walked over, examined the damage, and determined that the impact had come from inside the building, not outside. The damage reportedly occurred during the newspaper’s move. Whether Kenosha News editor John Sloca intentionally misled police, misunderstood what happened,

Goodbye, Blue Postcards: Kenosha Water Utility’s New Billing System Costs Up To $45,000 More Annually As Residents Face Higher Fees And Rate Increases
KENOSHA, Wis. — For as long as most Kenosha residents can remember, there was one unmistakable sign that their water bill had arrived in the mail: a blue postcard. But over the past couple of months, those familiar postcards have disappeared, replaced by bulky envelopes containing full-page statements.
