“I haven’t received (Wauwautosa police) reports, so I am proceeding without them. I will be tied up with Capitol protester cases and a couple other things until Thanksgiving. I would like to get something filed on Bella before the end of the year.”

Charges in the case have yet to be filed.

In an email the homeowner writes:

“I am beyond frustrated, as you can imagine, because the owners of this company are carrying on with their lives and continue to work in the remodeling industry while none of the victims have had any restitution for the millions owed to them. I wonder how many other more serious felony cases have been put on the back burner due to the protester forfeiture cases.”

In an email, Department of Justice spokeswoman Dana Brueck says the protest cases have not held the case up.

"The Capitol protester citation cases have nothing to do with when something will be filed in this matter," she says.
