Sept. 11, 2013 – In this video, State Bar of Wisconsin President Patrick J. Fiedler gives remarks during a Sept. 5 news conference in support of a bill that would return first-time, nonviolent 17-year-old offenders to juvenile court jurisdiction. Fiedler drew upon his extensive experience in the criminal justice system.

“As a father and member of the legal community, I believe that it does make our community safer to give nonviolent, first time offending 17-year-olds a second chance.”
