Ex-Wis. DA pleads no contest to ethics violations
MADISON, Wis. — A former Wisconsin prosecutor accused of rampant sexual harassment agreed Friday to plead no contest to six ethics violations, moving his sordid case closer to a resolution.
The Office of Lawyer Regulation filed a complaint against former Calumet County District Attorney Ken Kratz in November alleging 11 breaches of state Supreme Court attorney conduct rules. The office accused him of soliciting a domestic abuse victim through a barrage of sleazy text messages, forcing a woman he prosecuted to have sex with him and making sexual remarks to a number of other women.
Kratz doesn't face any criminal charges, but the office has urged the high court to suspend his law license for six months.
