DA Union member's wife drove witch hunt against Scott Walker
[BREITBART] A former Wisconsin prosecutor has come forward to charge that Milwaukee DA John Chisholm was goaded by his union-member wife to keep the pressure on Walker as he carried out his campaign promises to cure the budget problems that he faced when he was elected Governor.

The prosecutor, who wishes to stay anonymous to protect himself from retaliation, says that the partisan animus he saw in the Milwaukee DA was shocking. "I admired him [Chisholm] greatly up until this whole thing started," he said. "But once this whole matter came up, it was surprising how almost hyper-partisan he became... It was amazing... to see this complete change."

The former official also noted that after Walker's election, the DA's office became extremely partisan against him--with many of the employees siding with unions, even to the extent of attending anti-Walker rallies sponsored by unions.

The former prosecutor said Chisholm "had almost like an anti-Walker cabal of people in his office who were just fanatical about union activities and unionizing. And a lot of them went up and protested. They hung those blue fists on their office walls [to show solidarity with union protesters] ... At the same time, if you had some opposing viewpoints that you wished to express, it was absolutely not allowed."

The prosecutor also claimed that the reason for the continued John Doe investigation--even after Walker won the recall election and successfully enacted his budget policies--was that the wife of the DA pushed the issue with her DA husband.

The source said the DA's wife, Colleen Chisholm, took Walker's policies "personally," and that she "frequently" broke down in tears over Walker's union policies. As she continued her alleged histrionics, the DA began to feel that "it was his personal duty to stop Walker from treating people like this."

These revelations may finally shed light on the many unanswered questions about the nature of these Jon Doe investigations.
