PUBLISHED OPINION COURT OF APPEALS DECISION DATED AND FILED NOTICE July 30, 1998 This opinion is subject to further editing. If published, the official version will appear in the bound volume of the Official Reports. Marilyn L. Graves Clerk, Court of Appeals of Wisconsin A party may file with the Supreme Court a petition to review an adverse decision by the Court of Appeals. See No. 97-2991-CR STATE OF WISCONSIN IN COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT IV State of Wisconsin, Plaintiff-Respondent, v. Robert W. Stutesman, Defendant-Appellant. APPEAL from a judgment of the circuit court for Clark County: MICHAEL W. BRENNAN, Judge. Reversed and cause remanded. Before Vergeront, Roggensack and Deininger, JJ. BACKGROUND Stutesman had three children during his marriage to Terry Ann Schultz. Stutesman and Schultz were divorced in December 1990, and, pursuant to various court orders, Stutesman was directed to pay child support. The time periods alleged in the information for the sixteen counts of failure to pay child support were from November 1, 1990 to June 30, 1994, and from September 1, 1994 to July 25, 1996. After the jury returned a guilty verdict on the sixteen counts, Stutesman moved for a new trial on the ground that he had been denied the right to present the defense that he was unable to pay support because he was incarcerated. The trial court denied the motion for much the same reasons it granted the State's motion in limine. The court concluded that whether a defendant could present an affirmative defense was a question of law for the court, not a question of fact, and because Stutesman was in jail for crimes he committed, he did not have an affirmative defense based on inability to pay.

John's argument, it seems to me, is mainly that the increasing incarceration of young black men probably helped to make un-jailed black men (of earning gains than otherwise.

Today, 25% of prisoners are double bunked and that number is projected to raise to 30% by the turn of the century. The practice of double bunking is in violation of United Nations standards for the minimum treatment of prisoners, which canada as a member of the UN has endorsed. The auditor general reported in 1994 that some of the double bunked cells were only 60 square feet, with the smallest being 48 square feet.

Organizations WI DOC Stats/Facts Issues ... Feedback American Civil Liberties Union Policy Priorities for Prison Reform Reduction in Incarceration: Over 2 million men, women and juveniles in the United States live behind bars. The majority of them were not convicted of a violent crime. Unfortunately, the political will of a few lawmakers has locked these people up. Many sentences could have been better served outside prison walls and saved millions in taxpayer dollars. Despite this reality, "tough on crime" agendas encouraged the development of mandatory minimum sentencing and "three-strikes-and-your-out" legislation causing soaring rates of incarceration which have overwhelmed an already burdened prison and jail system. Alternatives to incarceration for nonviolent offenders are necessary to reduce overcrowding, to constructively and appropriately sentence convicts, to minimize financial costs and to protect offenders families from upheaval. Improvements in Conditions of Confinement: Emphasis on Rehabilitation and Treatment Programs: Educational and vocational training as well as substance abuse treatment services are crucial in order to provide proper rehabilitation to offenders and to reduce recidivism. National surveys indicate: 70% of inmates entering state prisons have not graduated from high school, 19% are completely illiterate and 40% are functionally illiterate.

91. Unanswered Questions On Race And Crime more to the point, a serious minority crime problem. is a chart showing the rate ofincarceration for different Problem the stats themselves are deeply flawed http://www.storm.ca/~moparman/globe.htm

Unanswered questions on race and crime Racism is about stereotypes and prejudgements. Racism is the attribution of negative characteristics based on misconceptions and myths rather than objective analysis of facts. Racism is about looking at the the world through a distorting lens, the better to see what you want to see, the better to avoid a confrontation with unpleasant surprises. This self-reinforcing and parochial world view is, unfortunately, often shared by investigations of racism. So it was with Stephen Lewis's 30-day inquiry into the 1992 Yonge Street "riot", and so it is with the task force he recommended and its $5,000,000 two-years-in-the-making Report of the Commission on Systemic Racism in the Ontario Criminal Justice System. How predictable, and how unfortunate. The trouble with the 455-page report is not that it is too far-reaching, too ambitious or too radical. A little deviation form an overused path of inquiry might have yielded interesting results. Instead, it stuck to the old road, the straightest line to answers shop-worn and evasive. This task force's sins are primarily those of omission, of failing to ask the right questions. What results is a clarion call to complacency. The commission's mandate, that of documenting racism, predestined the exercise to marginality, guaranteeing answers as incomplete as its questions. Which is a shame and a disappointment, because Canada has a serious crime problem, and more to the point, a serious minority crime problem. Five million dollars spent on an examination of the totality of its causes and cures would be money well spent.
