After 27 years as a lawyer and law enforcement officer, nothing surprises me. Almost nothing. The civil suit between Therese Ziemann of Appleton, Wisconsin and Donessa Davis of Fond du Lac is one for the history books.
According to the lawsuit, Ziemann lured Davis to a local motel after believing that he was cheating on her. Davis claims he was drugged with Xanax and GBH, a popular date rape drug. He was then tied up, threatened with a gun, humiliated by three other women and had his manhood glued to his body. That assault made national news last year. The civil suits filed this month are even more fascinating.
That Davis has filed a suit is not surprising. He says the assault at the hands of four women left him emotionally scarred. He also claims some medical difficulties resulting from the attack on his manhood. Although the facts are unusual, it is essentially a suit for assault and infliction of emotional distress. The story doesn't end there, however.
Ziemann immediately filed a countersuit against Davis accusing him of fraud. She says that Davis' complaints of emotional distress are nonsense; she claims he called her after the incident in the hopes of "renewing an intimate relationship." She also says his claims of medical problems are false. According to her lawyer, Davis is "as fit and virile as ever."
Too much information, if you ask me.
She also claims that Davis was a philanderer who sought vulnerable women and attempted to get them to financially support him. She says his suit for money damages is an extension of his fraudulent attempts to get money from women.
Ziemann may be correct that Davis is nothing more than a cad. There is just one problem with her suit, however. According to public court records, Ziemann was convicted of disorderly conduct and battery for gluing Davis' private parts. She was convicted in December of 2009 by then Calumet County District Attorney Ken Kratz. (Kratz himself made national news earlier this fall for sending sexual text messages to domestic violence victims.)
The civil suits between the parties are still pending.
Fraud suits are serious business. Our economy loses billions of dollars per year to fraud. This case, however, strikes me as nothing more than an abuse of our legal system and how it is sometimes used to simply air dirty laundry.
Calumet County Wisconsin has a population of just 45,000 residents. According to their logo, they extend the peace pipe to all mankind. One has to wonder what kind of tobacco they have been smoking in that pipe.

In 1911, after thirty-five years of dictatorial rule by president Porfirio Diaz, the Mexican people had had enough. Angry, fed up and bitter at the administration's corruption, they were incited to rise up and revolt after that year's election, when popular newcomer Francisco Madero "lost" the presidential race in a stunningly obvious case of electoral fraud. This was the beginning of the Mexican Revolution... - The Incredible Work of Benito Juarez (Robert Nickel)
A great deal of Mexico's liberal reforms in the 19th century - the separation of church and state, the proclamation of all citizens as equal in the eyes of the law and the establishment of a market-driven social system, among other things, would not have been possible without the leadership of Benito Juarez. Once an illiterate shepherd, this Zapotec native rose to become a lawyer and eventually ended up involved in some of the most important... - The Battle Of Puebla And Cinco De Mayo (Robert Nickel)
Why does the United States celebrate every May 5, or Cinco de Mayo? It's only a regional holiday in Mexico, and is often mistaken to be the commemoration of their Independence Day (which is actually in September). The roots of these festivities go back to the French invasion in 1862, and a decisive initial victory against Napoleon III's forces. - Gift Giving: The Pet Lover (Claire Dimmit)
If you are being frustrated by trying to find the perfect gift for the animal lover in your life, you should not give up. Here are a few ideas that can spur your imagination enabling you to find the perfect gift. - Agustin I: The First Mexican Emperor (Robert Nickel)
The First Emperor of Mexico's regime was the first attempt at a Spain-free governing structure, and it failed fairly quickly. His reign had lasted roughly ten months before collapsing, and while it didn't accomplish a great deal in terms of infrastructure, it marked the true start of the divide between the centrist conservative and the democratic liberal political parties. - How Maximilian I Became Emperor Of Mexico (Robert Nickel)
It might not be a commonly known fact, but Mexico was, at two separate points, a monarchy; each reign lasted less than five years and was filled with revolts, infighting, and puppet rulers. The first Mexican Empire took place shortly after the country won its independence from Spain in 1821, but collapsed less than eight months after its establishment. The second attempt was the result of Napoleon III's invasion in 1862... - All About the Reform Wars (Robert Nickel)
In the years following Mexico's War of Independence, a question arose among the newly freed citizens as to how the newly free nation should be governed. Two ideologies emerged: the liberals wished to establish a democratic, secular government with a constitution similar to that of the United States of America...
