As you may have noticed, updates have been less frequent lately. That’s largely because the pursuit of justice for Tomitka has faced multiple delays entirely outside of our control. The most recent hearings and status conferences have been largely administrative, with little substantive progress to report.
On December 11, 2025, a motion hearing was held. During that hearing, the defense attorney informed the court that he was leaving his position with the Milwaukee District Attorney’s Office and could no longer represent the defendant. As a result, the court needed to appoint new defense counsel. No other matters of major significance were addressed at that time.
On January 21, 2026, a status conference took place primarily to formally note that the court had appointed a new defense attorney for the defendant. Again, no substantive arguments or developments occurred during this hearing.
