Menomonie, Wisconsin History/ReggieIsLife
Summary[edit | edit source]
Menomonie, unsurprisingly, does not have a lot of crime. However, that doesn’t mean that this town doesn’t have murder or a robbery in it’s history. Just this year there was a non-fatal stabbing after a hateful argument between a white man and a black man. Menomonie has a police department with 27 officers that apparently answer about 16,000 calls a year. Perhaps the worst crime that I found was the torture killing of a 16-year old Muslim boy in 1995 by his cousins.[1]
