William Steele desperately needs treatment before release

William steel , has multiple DUI convictions,
 begging for treatment before being released. 

Wlliam Steele 1666853 RCI

here is his story:

  10 4 23

I'm in for my 7th OWI and the judge almost gave me maximum sentence 5 in 5 out- 10 years. I pulled over without any aggravated circumstance however my judge was Jennifer Darrow and she was going for Supreme Court and that's the time when Darrell Brooks ran over people in the parade. so I tried to plea out but still got banked

  I should have got mandatory minimum of three in, three out , to do Erp and then get out in 3 but you put a condition on for four in but my J.O.C. said I'm not eligible for Erp until after 4 years. However in the transcript she said I could get out in 4 years. but the clerk put eligible for Erp after 4:. Now I have a little over two. I think if I write the court I can get out on 4. 9:25-25( I pray)

 I've been in touch with Tony Justich and he agrees that I shouldn't be subject to S,O, rules when I don't register and was never ordered by a judge. I sent him all the information. Anyway the prison system is in violation with a lot of things( major overcrowding) it's hard to get in ERP for a lot of people/. There's tons of other crap going on.

  I always get medical shoes in Dodge but now I don't fit the criteria because I have a bad bunion on my foot. I went all the way to Madison. Now I can start my civil suit against Hsu because the only way is connective  surgery for this. but I don't have the $350,,400 for filing fees. So I'm screwed for now. So I'll work with St Vincent de Paul jail Ministries in Waukesha you can call them my friend Tom Pippins helps me out with property while in here TV radio Etc

 I've been working with the ministry for 30 plus years. way back when a fellow named John Qual was in there. .Now they have another John running it in Tom Pipiens worked as a channel 12 sports newscaster. he is really cool so feel free to work with them.

RE: Friend of the Court Letter

For William Steele 166853 RCI

April 7,2024 

Your Honor,

I am writing you on behalf off William Steele. He is incarcerated at Racine Correctional Institution. This is his 7th DUI conviction and he has come to me for help in obtaining , finally, treatment. In each of his last convictions he has been released without addiction treatment, only to go back to the same old behavior when stressed. He knows he needs to develop a new support system and needs help doing that now. I come to you for hep so he is again not again released to the same merry-go-round.

The DOC policy here is hard to understand - William’s sentence was 5 in and 5 out. With his 7th DUI the mandatory “in “ time 3 years. You added a year to that. You have to have over two years left to get on the two year waiting list for addiction treatment. This is his explanation to me: “ the program is 3 months long but the wait list is over 2 years long and I should be starting it now but the judge gave me an extra year but then if I’m not on the waiting list by now I wont get any treatment at all so basically the judge made it so I serve more time and get no treatment at all, once again deny me of my help.” 

WIlliam wants desperately to do the right thing and needs our help- he needs the treatment program while in prison.. Please either order that he be put on the two year waiting list now or take away the extra year you gave him.

It is my experience that most prisoners leave prison untreated and untrained, traumatized   Here is an opportunity to buck that tradition Please help

I Thank you for your attention,
