Wisconsin National Guard Commander Resigns In Wake Of Federal Investigation

10 December 2019 News


Wisconsin’s National Guard commander has resigned in the wake of a federal investigation that found the guard deliberately defied federal law, regulations and policies on handling sexual assault investigations. Governor Tony Evers demanded Major General Donald Dunbar’s resignation Monday. Dunbar agreed to step down at the end of the month. He has served as the Wisconsin National Guard’s leader since 2007, but his command has been fraught with allegations of officers overlooking sexual assault complaints and retaliating against victims. Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul issued a statement saying he supported Governor Tony Evers swift actions and call for reform in light of the federal investigation.
