Green County
Felonies
♦ Tina Louise Elmer, 57, Janesville, entered a two-year deferred prosecution agreement Feb. 19 on a Class I felony charge of fleeing or eluding an officer and a Class A misdemeanor charge of resisting or obstructing an officer, with conditions that she continue mental health treatment and attend quarterly monitoring conferences. If she complies with the agreement, the case will be fully dismissed. The case stems from a traffic stop Oct. 18 in the area of Legler Road and Wisconsin 92, Town of Brooklyn, according to court records. An off-duty Dane County Sheriff's deputy called 911 to report a possible intoxicated driver after observing a vehicle "driving around in a field" off Alpine Road. A responding Green County officer determined Elmer was not under the influence of alcohol but "appeared to be confused, slow or otherwise disoriented by some means." She failed sobriety tests. When told she was unsafe to drive and would be getting a ride home from the officer, she drove off and led the officer on a chase before coming to a stop near Dayton, where she was arrested.
♦ John Lyle Carothers Muszynski, 26, Clinton, Iowa, was sentenced to three years on probation Feb. 20 after pleading no contest to felony bail jumping and two misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct. He also had his deferred prosecution agreement revoked on a felony conviction of marijuana possession. Conditions of his probation include maintaining absolute sobriety, undergoing counseling for alcohol or other drug abuse and taking anger management classes. The marijuana possession conviction stems from a traffic stop Sept. 15, 2015, on Wis. 69, Town of Clarno. The other convictions stem from a series of domestic altercations with a woman at his former home on Wis. 69, Town of Washington. Court records indicate he became upset after she refused him sex, and he yelled at her, called her names and pushed her while she was holding an infant.
Misdemeanors
♦ Kyle Brandon Montgomery, 39, New Glarus, pleaded no contest Feb. 19 on a Class A misdemeanor charge of criminal damage to property and entered a one-year deferred prosecution with conditions that he attend quarterly monitoring conferences and undergo treatment assessments for anger management or domestic violence and alcohol or drug abuse. If he complies with the conditions, the charge will be dismissed. The case stems from an altercation with a woman at his home on Highland Drive on Oct 27.
♦ Kelly Jean Williams, 41, Brodhead, pleaded no contest March 7 to a Class B misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct and entered an 18-month deferred prosecution agreement. The case will be fully dismissed if Williams complies with the conditions of her deferred prosecution. A second charge of disorderly conduct in another case was dismissed pursuant to the disposition of the first case. She owes the court $343. The charges stem from incidents at Williams' home on 1st Center Avenue on July 10 and Aug. 14. Police were called to the home because Williams was "intoxicated and out of control," according to court records. A family member told police that when she is drunk, "she is a completely different person."
