Milwaukee court cases probe 1950s police killings
Two linked but separate actions in Milwaukee examine the deaths of Daniel Bell in 1958 and Ernest Lacy in 1967. Bell’s family sues for civil rights violations while Lacy’s death is being heard in an inquest. The cases accuse police brutality and cover up, with multiple autopsy reviews and witness testimony planned over weeks. The city faces civil rights claims against the police department, the district attorney, and officials, amid protests and a growing black population in Milwaukee.
