PORT WASHINGTON Wis. — A hospital pharmacist accused of spoiling 500 doses of CoVid-19 vaccine 1-1/2 weeks ago was charged with the crime. Steven R. Brandenburg, 46, of Grafton, appeared in video court hearing to be charged with two felonies: damaging property and recklessly endangering safety. The charges could mean 13 years in prison and $35,000 in fines. Judge Paul Malloy set bond at $10,000, which Brandenburg posted and was released. There were conditions for the release. Judge Malloy ordered Brandenburg to surrender his firearms, not to take any health care job, and not to contact anyone at Aurora hospital where the vaccine incidents occurred.
