Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel once admitted to emotionally shutting out his wife and children, interrogating his daughter like a criminal suspect, and treating his home life like an extension of the courtroom. In a revealing story to a police chaplain group in 2018, Schimel recalled asking his wife, Sandi, for permission to run for attorney general—expecting her to say no.

Instead, she agreed, but only under two conditions: they wouldn’t move, and he would change how he interacted with his family. Sandi bluntly told him, “You come home from work. You don’t talk to anybody for half an hour.”

Worse, Sandi told him, “You don’t talk to your kids. You interrogate your kids.” Schimel then recounted a disturbing moment where he treated his 8-year-old daughter like a hostile witness. Adjusting his rearview mirror so she couldn’t look away, he forced her into a confession. Schimel stated:

Schimel was "proud" of having "psychologically beat the daylights out" of his 8-year-old daughter. Sandi made a request that Brad change his awful behavior toward his wife and two daughters.

5. I have worked with lawyers for a long time.

There is a certain subset (and I don't think it's connected to practice area) that seem to be psychologically incapable of not "lawyering" everyone around them. They do this to their own staff and it's very difficult to work with these people. If there's any common denominator, I think it's that they were always trying to please very demanding fathers themselves. I never felt that I was valued or working towards a common goal with these attorneys.

I now work with lawyers who are not that way, and it's so much nicer.
