Milwaukee Democrats' tire slashing trial begins

What this article from WSAW in Wausau, WI doesnt' mention is that two of the defendants are adult children of prominent Milwaukee Democratic politicians.

The trial for five people who worked for the John Kerry presidential campaign begins Monday (January 9, 2006).

They're accused of slashing the tires of 20 vehicles outside Republican headquarters in Milwaukee election day morning.

The 77 witnesses include National AFLCIO President John Sweeney and U.S. Representative Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-Illinois)

The five will be tried together and is expected to go about two weeks. If convicted, each suspect could get three and a-half years in prison and a $10,000
fine.

UPDATE 8:30 AM Jan 10. Michelle Malkin has a lot more on her blog, including mug shots of those "good Democrats."
