Waukesha child abandonment case; parents charged, wanted
The Brief Two children were found "in a completely wild, unkept state" at a Waukesha apartment that was "a complete and total mess." The parents are now charged with child abandonment, and a warrant was issued for their arrest. WARNING: Details of this story may be disturbing to some readers. WAUKESHA, Wis. - Waukesha County prosecutors said two children were found naked "in a completely wild, unkept state" at an apartment that was "a complete and total mess." Now, the parents are charged with child abandonment. In Court Court records warrants were issued for the arrests of 31-year-old Jessica Borkert and 36-year-old James Domoracki after they failed to appear in court on Thursday. FREE DOWNLOAD: Get breaking news alerts in the FOX LOCAL Mobile app for iOS or Android What they're saying Waukesha police were called to a multi-level apartment on Jan. 9. A criminal complaint states the kids, ages 2 and 4 at the time, were found screaming and crying. Prosecutors said Borkert and Domoracki left their children with a grandmother, who has mobility issues. The grandmother said she tried to stay on top of things but could not travel up and down stairs, did not have a vehicle and could not go anywhere to get food, supplies or medicine and was unable to take the children out of the residence. Court filings described the apartment as "a complete and total mess." The front door could not fully open because there was "junk everywhere." One of the children slept on a bare mattress "with stains and cockroaches." The apartment was "cluttered with toys, bags of garbage, clothes and blankets." The walls were "covered in dirt, dust, and other unknown substances." Both children are nonverbal and were "in a completely wild, unkept state," per the complaint. One of the children had bruises, scratches and dirt "all over him." The child also had matted hair and smelled of urine.

A detective spoke to Borkert days after the children were found. The complaint states she said she had gotten work in the Grafton area, which was "too far to come back to Waukesha." She said she and Domoracki had been staying at an Oak Creek motel, which court filings said appeared to be further away from Grafton than Waukesha. Prosecutors said detectives questioned Borkert on how the parents were supporting the grandmother while they were gone, during which she was "evasive." Domoracki said he would try to send food and diapers "via Walmart shopping" but he "ran out of money." Detectives reviewed the parents' shared cellphone, per the complaint, which found the "majority of text conversations" were indicative of "active participation in narcotics use and trade."

St. Cloud to notify more than 7 thousand residents impacted by ransomware data breach
Thousands of St. Cloud residents are getting letters in the mail telling them their personal information was compromised duringa 2024 ransomware attack. According to the city, the attack happened between March 17th and March 25th last year when an unauthorized actor tapped into city systems to access personal information. The city said after the attack, they hired a third-party company which quickly started to investigate. The company found names, addresses, medical information, taxpayer IDs, and social security numbers were compromised. In total, 7,797 people were impacted, according to a city spokesperson. After the investigation, the city said it, worked to send notices as quickly as possible to those impacted. Letters were mailed to affected residents last week. 'Their data is probably sitting on the dark web right now, and it's likely being sold in some way, shape, form, or fashion to other threat groups,' said John Anthony Smith, Founder of Fenix 24, a company that has helped hundreds of organizations recover after data breaches. According to Smith, St. Cloud is just the latest local city to become a target. 'Counties and cities are maintaining tax records. They're maintaining property records. They're maintain portions of these records that don't get disclosed publicly. And therefore, threat actors are commonly going to target these types of files,' said Smith. According to a statement published to the city's website, 'As a precautionary measure, the City encourages individuals to remain vigilant against incidents of identity theft by reviewing account statements, credit reports, and explanations of benefits for unusual activity and to detect errors. Any suspicious activity should be promptly reported to your credit card company, bank, or other applicable institution.' Smith suggests a few extra measures, too. 'I would suggest to citizens that they get credit monitoring, they freeze their credit reports, and lastly you should probably change how you buy things You should be using credit cards not debit cards.' Smith said credit cards offer greater protection against fraud than debit cards, which is why he recommends the switch. He said anyone who receives a letter from the city should be extra skeptical of messages or emails from unknown accounts asking for personal information. The city is now offering one year of credit monitoring to anyone impacted by the breach and has created a dedicated toll-free number where people can get their questions answered. That toll-free assistance line that has been established at 1-(800) 939-4170, available Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time (excluding major U.S. holidays).
