ROFLMAO. Really? You expect us to believe that you have access to the statements from the Capital Police, huh? Because we all know those statements haven't been made public.

Or you are just repeating imagined crap made up and passed on by right wing blogs?

I'll go with the second - you are simply repeating imagined right wing blog crap that any of us can read on the internet - and read the public statements given Sunday by Prosser and Bradley, thanks.

You can stick to the right wing screeching spin machine about how Bradley threw her neck into Prosser's hands.

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser has issued a denial of witness reports that he grabbed fellow justice Ann Walsh Bradley by the throat on June 13. The altercation reportedly erupted in Justice Bradley's chambers during a heated discussion of Governor Scott Walker's controversial budget bill, which curtails collective bargaining rights for public workers.

Prosser says that the allegations against him "will be proven false" after a "proper review of the matter and the facts surrounding it are made clear".

Justice Bradley has issued a statement to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel stating that "(t)he facts are that I was demanding that he get out of my office and he put his hands around my neck in anger in a chokehold". Anonymous sources have confirmed Bradley's account, but spoke on condition of anonymity based on the need to maintain professional relationships. Other sources loyal to Prosser say that Bradley charged him with her fists raised and he grabbed her by the throat in an effort to defend himself.

Bradley responded to that version of events in an interview, saying, "You can try to spin those facts and try to make it sound like I ran up to him and threw my neck into his hands, but that's only spin."

She has announced her intention to pursue a formal complaint against Prosser. "Matters of abusive behavior in the workplace aren't resolved by competing press releases. I'm confident the appropriate authorities will conduct a thorough investigation of this incident involving abusive behavior in the workplace."

Prosser has a history of violent outbursts of anger, particularly against women justices. Last year, in a heated exchange, he called Chief Justice Abrahamson "a bitch" and vowed to "destroy" her. Bradley was present for that exchange and says she thought of contacting law enforcement personnel at the time. In an interview from March of this year, she expressed her concerns about Prosser's anger issues, saying, "It's been going on for years off and on".

Justice Ann Bradley should be playing for Manchester United with the kind of flop she had that day....

Yes, I have read stuff from "the other side".

This isn't an opinion issue, nor a political issue, nor a "problem caused by evil liberals trying to set up our good man Prosser" issue. It's a violence in the workplace issue, and an assault or simple battery against a judge issue.

Prosser has a known, self-admitted and verified history of verbal abuse in the workplace, and worse, blaming his admittedly wrong behaviour on being caused by those he abused.

Prosser doesn't get to start this incident from the position of being a good guy, due to his own previous behaviour at work. That's his very real problem. Not bad or imagined press.

The proof will be in if ethics charges or police charges are filed. We'll all just have to wait and see.

Your ignorance speaks volumes. All Prosser did in the past was call a Spade a Spade. If this incident involved a women who came at another women like bradley did to prosser this would be a non issue. The only reason it is an issue is that Prosser is a man. Bradley and Abrahamson are upset with the fact that prosser won and they will do anything to get him to resign or get kicked out since his appointment is for 8 yrs. The only violence in this incident was from Justice Ann Bradley, but we will see.

Why don't you start sending your $ to Segue Guy?

Your obvious objective impartiality speaks volumes, too. I'll bet you think it's awful that the Justice made Prosser call her a bitch.

Poor Prosser, being forced into calling her a bitch and threatening to destroy her.

Yeah. We know what to call that.

So you can make statements and assumptions about Justice Prosser but no can make statements or assumptions about Justice Bradley. Makes sense. I personally do not know either of them, but the actions taken and and the handling of the ruling by Justice Bradley and Abrahamson was outrageous. If someone were to come at you the way Bradley did I guarantee you that your first reaction would be to put your hands up. That is the real truth of what happened that day and it will come out soon enough......

You can make all the assumptions you want about Justice Bradley. I'm just laughing because you've called my statements (what the people involved have said publicly) assumptions, and you maintain your statements (based upon discussions on the right wing blogs, not any special secret facts) are the truth.

That is the real truth of what happened that day and it will come out soon enough......

We'll see. And no, I am not giving Prosser any benefit of the doubt, based upon his previous performance and admissions.
