MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — State Capitol Police warn a man over possible stalking behavior towards an elections official.
Peter Bernegger of New London was served with a warning letter last month.
The July 7 letter from Capitol Police Chief David Erwin notified Bernegger that his behavior toward Wisconsin Elections Commission administrator Meagan Wolfe and commission staff “could be interpreted as ‘stalking’ under state law.”
Bernegger is an election denier who has sought to compel Wolfe to testify in a lawsuit he filed against the commission.
Attorney General Josh Kaul filed a motion to protect Wolfe from having to testify, in part because of Bernegger’s behavior.
