Sex offender signs popping up

You’re starting to see yard signs on properties all over Franklin that read:


OUR KIDS SAFETY

OUR LAWS

SUPPORT 167


167 refers to the strict city of Franklin ordinance that restricts where sex offenders can live or congregate.

Released sex offender Steve Hanke bought a home in Franklin several months after the ordinance took effect and is in clear defiance and violation of the law. The city has filed a lawsuit against Hanke who refuses to move, in an effort to evict him.

A court hearing is scheduled in early November and a large contingent of residents from all over Milwaukee, not just Franklin, is being urged to attend.

I’ll have more updates and details in the weeks ahead.
