WI Court of Appeals – District II
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Joseph-Jamal R. Brantley
Case No.: 2018AP1607-CR
Officials: Neubauer, C.J., Reilly, P.J., and Gundrum, J.
Focus: Brady Violation
Joseph-Jamal Brantley appeals from a judgment convicting him after a jury found him guilty of party to a crime (PTAC) firstdegree reckless homicide with a dangerous weapon, PTAC first-degree recklessly endangering safety with a dangerous weapon, PTAC armed robbery, and carrying a concealed weapon. He also appeals from an order denying his motion for postconviction relief, in which he alleged a Brady violation and prosecutorial misconduct against then Kenosha County District Attorney Robert Zapf. His arguments are unpersuasive. We affirm.
