It is a dirty shame that Wisconsin's Rep. Jeffrey Wood, I-Chippewa Falls, was caught for a fifth time driving under the influence of alcohol. A video was released yesterday showing Wood getting pulled over after officers see his Buick Skylark stop in the middle of a road and then slowly swerve across both lanes of traffic. When he was asked to walk a straight line, he stumbled...

Once again, Wisconsin has made it into Jay Leno's monologue. Last month, Sheboygan Mayor Bob Ryan provided an easy target for Leno's jokes . Leno's target last night was Rep. Jeff Wood . Here's the police Dash Cam video of Wood's arrest: Leno apparently found that irresistible. JAY LENO: It's time for a new feature we call 'Politician of the Week.' I think this is going to be one of my...

Watching someone’s life spin out of control is difficult to witness. Worse yet is when a person’s downward slide has the potential to injure or even kill others. Sadly, that is the case of Wisconsin State Representative Jeffrey Wood. There has been no joy for anyone as we witness the police videos again and again of an intoxicated member of [...]

Rep. Jeffrey Wood has achieved a degree of unwanted national fame after being shown in a police dashcam falling down during a sobriety test. From both a legal and political standpoint, falling down is never good during such tests. It does not make it better when this is Wood’s third arrest in [...]
