Armed man who demanded to see Wisconsin governor pleads guilty to misdemeanor
A man who twice brought guns to the Wisconsin state Capitol building looking for Gov. Tony Evers has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor. Prosecutors accused Joshua Pleasnick of showing up at the Capitol on Oct. 4 and demanding to see the governor while armed with a handgun. He was arrested, posted bail and returned to the building that same night with a rifle. He was arrested again and charged with carrying a firearm in a public building, a misdemeanor. Online court records indicate he pleaded guilty to that charge on May 24 and was sentenced to 30 days in jail with work-release privileges. His attorney didn't immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
