Wisconsin is one of four states (along with Illinois, Kentucky, and Oregon) that prohibits bail bondsmen. So bail must be paid either in cash, with a registered check, cashier’s check or credit card. In fact, Donna Kuchler, a Wisconsin criminal defense attorney based in Waukesha, said police aren’t allowed to insist on cash.
“I would be suspicious of why they would do that,” Kuchler says. “I had a case last year in Fond du Lac County where they tried to say my client could only pay in cash. My guess is that they probably intended to do the same thing that happened here. We brought a cashier’s check anyway, and they knew they had to accept it.”

Mandy Rennhack said her autistic son was put into a plywood 5 by 7 foot box March 27. She was concerned about the amount of time he was in the box and does not want the school to use the box. Rennhack’s son has Asperger’s syndrome, a disorder that’s part of the autism spectrum which affects development in children. Records show Rennhack’s son was in the room 80 minutes.
