My question involves criminal records for the state of: Wisconsin. I was charged with escape for returning late to jail on a work release program (huber) At that time standard operating procedure for returning late to huber was to throw said inmate into solitary confinement for a few days, which is what happened to me. Unfortunately one deputy hated me and decided to charge me with escape also, which was unheard of at that time. I was an hour late getting back to jail, stopped at my moms house to eat Christmas dinner as she lived 4 blocks from my travel route. The cops somehow knew I was at my moms house, came to take me back to jail but my mom talked them into letting me stay to eat, so they left empty handed. I returned to jail on my own after eating. I was a teenager at the time. Now 32 years later, it shows on my criminal history an escape charge. Here's the kicker. I never received a court date, never went to court, never saw a judge, nobody ever contacted me. I was still incarcerated 3 months after the charge, so they knew how to contact me. There are no dispositions on my record for the escape charge, nothing but the charge itself. Here's where it gets good. I contacted Dept of Justice for removal of record, they denied me due to no disposition on criminal history. I went to the clerk of courts, no record of any kind on file. I went to the county DA office. No records on file, they have zero information on this charge. Nobody knows what happened 32 years ago but me. My question is with no information on file, doesn't the DA have to send in a final disposition stating I was never prosecuted?
