Description | Another major shoe has dropped in the John Doe investigation of Gov. Scott Walker's current and former aides.
On Tuesday, authorities arrested Andrew P. Jensen Jr., a commercial real estate broker with Boerke Co. and a past president of the Commercial Association of REALTORS Wisconsin.
Fran McLaughlin, spokesman for Sheriff David Clarke Jr., confirmed that Jensen was behind bars on Tuesday night. But McLaughlin said no one had filed a criminal complaint against the 50-year-old Milwaukee resident.
The sheriff's website states that charges are pending against Jensen.
Attempts to reach Jensen or his lawyer were unsuccessful.
Jensen was a minor contributor to Walker's gubernatorial campaign, donating $850 to Walker. Boerke Co. employees gave a total of $12,150.
Insiders told No Quarter that he was arrested for refusing to cooperate with the long-running John Doe investigation by Milwaukee County prosecutors.
Assistant District Attorney Bruce Landgraf declined to discuss the matter late Tuesday.
"I have no comment," Landgraf said. |
