EAU CLAIRE, Wis. – The Eau Claire County district attorney, Gary King, who has been caught drinking on the job, has hired a former Dane County district attorney. The out-of-town attorney, Hal Harlowe, confirmed he is representing King. Harlowe said: “No one can credibly deny that he has thrown his heart and soul into the job of district attorney, worked ridiculously long hours, and produced remarkable results. We hope that the public that Gary has served — including local officials — will not rush to judgment on incomplete information.” Governor Tony Evers has been asked to replace King.
