News » Walker responds to new staffer charges
Jan. 27, 2012
Governor Scott Walker says his campaign is cooperating with an ongoing John Doe investigation. 
Two former aides to Walker when he was Milwaukee County executive were charged yesterday with doing campaign work while they were supposed to be working for the county. Walker says his office made it clear that wasn't allowed.
The criminal complaints against Kelly Rindfleisch and Darlene Wink also detail a secret, private Internet hookup in the county executive's office. The governor declined to comment on other details of the case because of the ongoing investigation.
Rindfleisch is charged with four felonies, on accusations that she was doing fundraising work for former Lt. Gov. candidate Brett Davis, while on county time. Wink faces two misdemeanor counts, and court records say she worked to organize a potential fundraiser for Walker.
The governor says he does not believe the investigation is targeting him directly. |
