Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne gives Robin Vos sham impeachment panel a scathing review: Powerless!

 
HeadlineCapital Times, 10/27/2023
The group of three justices — David Prosser, Patience Roggensack and Jon Wilcox — ultimately “had no power,” Ozanne wrote, and their findings “carry no force or weight of law.” 
“It appears it was created to serve a political purpose by providing a veneer of judicial impartiality to what is or would be a partisan political decision: the potential impeachment of Justice Janet Protasiewicz,” he said. 
“While Speaker Vos may have wished to portray the panel as a governmental body, no rule created the panel, the panel members were not bound to engage in any collective decision-making (outside of selecting a place and time for lunch), the panel members were not bound to agree to collective action (providing a single opinion or decision to Speaker Vos), and the panel members decisions carried no weight of law.”  emphasis added]
