The dickhead responsible for sending the gay Venezuelan make-up artist to El Salvador is a criminal ex-cop

https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/2025/04/10/heres-what-to-know-about-the-former-mpd-sergeant-involved-in-deportations/83025071007/


The former Milwaukee Police Department officer involved in the recent deportation of a Venezuelan makeup artist to El Salvador had previously been placed on a list of Milwaukee County officers with credibility issues, and was later fired by the department after crashing into a house while driving drunk.

Charles Cross Jr. was hired by the department in 1993.

In 2012, he drove a car with a blood alcohol limit twice the legal limit into a home. At the time of the crash, he was also under investigation for allegedly claiming overtime he did not earn, according to previous reporting by the Journal Sentinel.

Cross was fired from his position as a Milwaukee Police Sergeant after the crash. He appealed the decision and resigned in the process.

Previously, he was convicted in 2007 of criminal damage to property, according to court records. This misdemeanor conviction came after he kicked in the door of the apartment he shared with his girlfriend and threatened to kill himself, the court records show. He was fined $500 on that count.

The poor soul deported had NO criminal history.
