[WI] Should I take the five-year plea or push for probation/trial?

Around November I got in trouble because a girl lied about her age. I did something with her not knowing she was underage. I’m 23. In interrogation I admitted we did something, but I didn’t know she was underage. She texted me after I was released on bond saying “I’m sorry,” and I showed proof she lied. First plea was 7 years; now they changed it to 5 with therapy. Is it okay to take the plea?

[WI] Can I sue the sheriff for defamation after being wrongfully charged?

On Dec 29, 2023, I was charged with a crime I didn’t commit. I was acquitted in 2024, but the charge is still online and I can’t find work. I used to get jobs through Care.com but I’m now banned. I’ve sent 50+ applications with only one callback. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education but can’t work in my field. I’m considering going back to school, relocating, and changing careers. I’ve been diagnosed with major depression, PTSD, and anxiety tied to this and the Dodge County Sheriff’s Department. I had no criminal record before. The original charge was “maintaining a drug trafficking place,” but I pled guilty to possession of THC. I want to sue the Dodge County Sheriff’s Department for defamation, get my property back, and be compensated for lost income.

[WI] What does the DOC do about people absconding?

In Wisconsin, if someone absconds while on extended supervision and stays absconded past their maximum discharge date, what procedure does the Department of Corrections follow to extend that person’s maximum discharge date while they’re still absconded? Also — doesn’t the DOC have to give the absconded individual notice of any hearing that extends their maximum discharge date while they’re absconded? If they fail to give notice, isn’t that a Sixth Amendment notice issue or a Fourteenth Amendment due process violation?
