Three-Year Sentence for Horse Theft Shocks Youthful Offender
Joe Schaffer, twenty, pleaded guilty last Friday to stealing a horse after being arraigned in Jefferson before Judge Marchetti. He received a three year term in the Green Bay state reformatory, with officials saying the sentence serves his and society’s best interests. He broke down upon departure to the sheriff’s office, and a fiancée promised to wait. The report also notes Wisconsin State Fair plans for Sept 11–15 with $50,000 in premiums and $28,000 for horse racing, plus musical performances and free School Children's Day on Sept 3.
