Groppi receives six month contempt sentence
Milwaukee County Judge F Ryan Duffy Jr sentenced Rev James E Groppi to six months in the county jail for contempt after ruling he engaged in criminal and vicious practices during the Madison September 29 take over of the state Assembly chambers. Groppi led about 1000 protesters over welfare budget cuts and had been jailed since Oct 1. In Madison the Wisconsin Supreme Court upheld the contempt law without a hearing.
