Prosser grabs female justice by neck

Whoa! Walker clone Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser grabbed another justice -- a woman -- by the neck during an argument over the law to destroy collective bargaining rights.

According to WisconsinWatch.org,
Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser allegedly grabbed fellow Justice Ann Walsh Bradley around the neck in an argument in her chambers last week, according to at least three knowledgeable sources.
Details of the incident, investigated jointly by Wisconsin Public Radio and the Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism, remain sketchy. The sources spoke on the condition that they not be named, citing a need to preserve professional relationships.

They say an argument that occurred before the court’s release of a decision upholding a bill to curtail the collective bargaining rights of public employees culminated in a physical altercation in the presence of other justices. Bradley purportedly asked Prosser to leave her office, whereupon Prosser grabbed Bradley by the neck with both hands.

Justice Prosser, contacted Friday afternoon by the Center, declined comment.
As @KagroX tweeted,
Justice Prosser defends Wisconsin from "union thugs" by strangling another Justice.
Charming.
