UPFRONT: Chief Justice 1-on-1

Published | Video Starts at 01:45

Most recently, we know a Racine man is sitting in jail charged with stalking you. I'm curious, how broad are the threats facing justices as you and I sit here today? The threat of political violence in this state and in this country is real and it is rising. I've always been concerned my whole career about protecting people in the court system. Before I was ever a judge, I spent almost 30 years protecting victims and witnesses in this system. (01:45–01:55)
