#Waukesha County Sheriff Capt. Nick Ollinger, who is running for sheriff against John Gscheidmeier, just called me and said he wanted to weigh in on the #Madison police shooting and the statements by #Democrat governor candidates David Crowley and Francesca Hong (the latter called the shooting an "execution" even though the Madison police chief said the firing officer was injured by a knife-wielding Corey Ruiz before shooting - you can see the weapon in the video after an officer places it to the side.)
"They're condemning the officer before knowing the facts," Ollinger said.
"Based on the video evidence that we can see, based on my training and experience, based on what the chief has said, this appears to be justified," Ollinger said. "But we have to gather all of the facts. But what we are presented with today, it appears to be justified."
I asked him to explain why, and he said, "The weapon, intent and delivery system. The individual from what I can see was being taken into custody. He presented a weapon which was the knife. He had the intent because he ended up cutting the officer and he delivered the knife into the person. From my training and experience, the officer would be justified."
He explained that the law holds lethal force justified when there is "the intentional use of a weapon or firearm that can cause death or great bodily harm to you or another person or persons. You have to have the justification there. The officer will have to bring this out as to why he felt that way."
Added Ollinger: "We have two governor candidates coming out, one calling it an execution before we have all the facts. That right there is why we have recruitment and retention problems. We have individuals who don't have all of the factual information. This officer went out to protect the citizens of Madison. They were attempting to take someone into custody and that individual presented a weapon and ended up injuring the officer."
Asked what he thinks the consequences of politician' incendiary statements can be, he said:
"We have seen it. I was there in Kenosha. We see what happens. I was there protecting the citizens of Kenosha on the court steps for days while citizens were burning the city." He was "commanding our civil disturbance unit."
If John wants to call and offer his reaction, I will publish that too. He knows where to find me. I think more law enforcement voices speaking out in these situations, and sharing their perspective from their experience and training (as Jim Piwowarczyk also did tonight) is very important. We usually just hear from the politicians at the early stages of these situations, and sometimes cities burn.
MIKE DAVIS: They tried to destroy New York City 25 years ago with airplanes; now they're doing it by importing Islamists to illegally vote in our elections.
AMERICANS DID NOT ELECT MAMDANI.
HE SHOULD BE DENATURALIZED AND PROSECUTED!

The WORST Ghetto Meltdown in Internet History…
You have a right to leave America if you don't like the rules here. The rules are simple like don't steal.
Once you recognize there are more black people in the world than white people.
You are the majority, we are minority.
When is this faux oppression going to end? You want real oppression go to Africa or Haiti.
#BREAKING Two sources in a position to know tell WRN that the man shot by police in #Madison today is Corey D. Ruiz (Corey Durell Ruiz).
Part of the scene was captured on viral video. I have now seen a second, much clearer video. It shows:
-"he's got a knife! He's got a knife!" an officer appears to shout. This appears to be the officer who fired his gun.
-"Taser, taser" an officer says
-Then gunshots ring out
-It looked like they were possibly trying to cuff him but hadn't managed to, there was a struggle... there are multiple officers there. It's an ugly video. I will put it in the comment thread. You hear the clicks of the taser. Then: It looks like he's down on the ground when the officer fires. This is probably going to blow sky high.
The sources say:
-He was armed with a knife
-He was a DOC absconder from community supervision (DOC records bear this out)
-Police believed he was looking through unlocked cars
-DOC records show he was released on extended supervision on May 12, 2026 and was supposed to be in Madison
CCAP: Long record
2024 Misdemeanor convictions: retail theft, resisting
2024 Misdemeanor convictions: resisting, possess drug paraphernalia (charge of battery or threat to judge, prosecutor or law enforcement officer was dismissed)
2021 Felony conviction: Resist Officer - Substantial Bodily Harm/Soft Tissue Injury
2021 Felony conviction: Battery or Threat to Judge, Prosecutor or Law Enforcement Officer and Misdemeanor Conviction: Auto Theft
2020 Misdemeanor convictions: 2 counts of disorderly conduct
2020 Felony conviction: Bail jumping
2020: Misdemeanor conviction: Auto theft
2014: Felony convictions: Cocaine possession, marijuana possession. Misdemeanor theft
2014: Felony conviction, bail jumping. Misdemeanor: Battery
2013: Misdemeanor convictions: 2 counts of theft
2009: Felony convictions: Strangulation/suffocation (2 counts), robbery with force,
2007: Misdemeanor conviction: Disorderly conduct
The legal test will revolve around whether the officer(s) had a reasonable belief of imminent death or great body harm to themselves or another when opening fire... and his past record isn't relevant, unless they knew it, and it played a part in their formation of belief.
The video is disturbing. As with all of these things, it's smart to wait for all facts and angles, including from the officers' angles before making judgments. Remember how bad the Jacob Blake video looked, and that officer was exonerated due to the fact Blake had a knife and twisted toward him.
These are the facts we know now. But the video is very disturbing.
These situations are fluid and this just happened, so details can always change and there's information not known.
The fuzzier video shows he may have made contact with, or came close to making contact with, an officer, but a car then moves in front of the camera right as the shots ring out. But this is the information known at this time from credible sources who are in a position to know.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Did Nolan Wells' friends leave him behind? According to his best friend, the answer is no. He says they were dealing with a boat emergency and Nolan chose to stay behind with the girl he was with.

🚨 SICKOS IN OUR SCHOOLS & HOMES — CAUGHT RED HANDED
Chris Hansen just dropped a NUCLEAR sting in Marion County, Florida: 58 PREDATORS in 6 DAYS.
A 31-year-old 2nd grade teacher who writes kids books thought he was meeting a 15-year-old boy. Sent half-naked pics. Talked oral sex. Called an Uber to go rape him.
Hansen was waiting.
Then a 34-year-old contractor shows up thinking a dad was pimping out his 7 and 14-year-old sons for a sex party. Graphic as hell about what he wanted to do to little boys.
BOTH IN JAIL. NO BAIL. Teacher fired. Jamaican visa revoked. Eating bologna in the county lockup.
THESE MONSTERS are teachers, coaches, people you TRUST with your kids.
They don’t look like predators anymore.
But they CAN’T hide from Chris Hansen and real law enforcement.
Flood the zone EVERYWHERE.
Protect the children. Zero mercy. Lock these demons up FOREVER.
💥This morning on @sidrosenberg19 & friends @77WABCradio we covered the 2025 Mamdani FRAUD:
7% of the voters DO NOT EXIST
6% have fake SSNs
10% did not live in NYC
That's not an election. Who is running NYC??
I announced that @NDNYnews US Attorney John Sarcone and the @FBI Albany office are aggressively investigating.
Allowing unqualified voters to vote is felony election misconduct, when the tally certified is FALSE.
https://t.co/3VxlN4sdCi is already running more names. Can you help us find the fake voters, and get back to having REAL American citizens ONLY choose our representatives?
No time to waste!!! https://t.co/MG5Wd7k6Bi
🚨ROSIE O’DONNELL FILMED AT ANTIFA MOSQUE IN CROWN HEIGHTS AND QUESTIONED BY HOMELAND SECURITY — SHE’S ON A NON-RESIDENT VISA AND WAS TOLD TO ABANDON HER PLANS OR RISK THE NO-FLY LIST!
This is getting serious for her.
Rosie O’Donnell wasn’t just in New York to do a show. She was filmed meeting with “community leaders” at an Antifa mosque in Crown Heights. Later, Homeland Security pulled her in for questioning.
CBP Agent Jen Barroo made it very clear: O’Donnell is traveling on a non-resident visa. Meeting with known domestic terrorists could get her placed on the no-fly list. She was told in no uncertain terms to abandon whatever she thinks she’s planning with them and go home.
The warning was blunt: “It’s a long swim back to Dublin.”O’Donnell left the country she claims to hate, then came crawling back and immediately started associating with Antifa radicals. Now the government is reminding her that her visa status has consequences.
She might want to stay in Ireland this time.
@AmericaPulseNew
