According to a recently unveiled report, the Chippewa County Sheriff, Travis Hakes, faces accusations of dishonest conduct.
The comprehensive 600-page document, now accessible to the public, scrutinizes Hakes’ past behavior both as sheriff and during his tenure as a police officer in Chetek.
Notably, Hakes declined participation in the investigation leading to the report’s findings, dismissing multiple interview requests.
He attributes the inquiry to political motives, while the report concludes with substantial evidence pointing to his dishonesty.
