Former Pro-wrestler to Administrator Chippewa County Jail

January 6th, 2010
Comments Off

There’s a new administrator in charge of the Chippewa County Jail. Chippewa County JailFormerly known as “The Blonde Bomber” in pro-wrestling circles, Art Crews had his first day on the job on Monday. News reported by WEAU.

Crews says he’s worked in corrections all his life whether it was in the ring or outside the cells.

“I believe in walk around management. I need to start walking through, meeting staff and seeing detainees and inmates as well,” Crews said.

After spending most of the 80’s in the pro-wrestling ring, in 1987, crews took to working at jails and prisons around the country. Most recently as a warden in Texas.

Crews says Chippewa County’s is the smallest jail he’s ever worked in, but he says no matter what the size the keys to success are respect and communication.

“If you don’t have that in an organization you can’t go on and be very functional and meet the goals the public expects of us,” he said.

Crews is replacing Captain Jim Jerabek who had been serving as jail administrator for the last 17 years.

“They’re some awful big shoes to fill and I’m sure Art is capable of doing so. I have complete confidence he’ll do us well,” Chippewa County Sheriff Jim Kowalcyzk said.

Crews will be in charge of about 30 staff members and if the jail is full, 202 inmates. He says he plans to feel out how the jail is currently run and then decide if anything needs changing.

“I have a lot to learn here too. I have to learn what they’re currently doing. I don’t want to come in and make a bunch of changes for the sheriff and everybody,” Crews said.

No matter what changes are in store, Crews says his ultimate goal will remain the same.

“I always give promises to people and safety and security comes first for the community,” he said.

Crews says the biggest adjustment to moving here has been dealing with the cold temperatures, but he says the genuine friendliness he’s come across from community members makes him look forward to being here.

He says he’s also working on writing a book right now about his years as a pro-wrestler.

Site Suspended Temporarily

June 23rd, 2008
Comments Off

To our many readers:   We have to apologize that we were unable to maintain the currency of this site during the vacation of the editorial staff.  We had hoped to do better but, frankly, this year has become increasingly busy throughout our company.  That is, of course, generally good news.  However, it has meant that additional services, such as this site, have had to take a back seat, and that will continue to be the case for the next few weeks as we plow through a backlog of work.

Therefore, we are officially suspending this site until further notice.  We will email all our subscribers when we restart — as we certainly intend to do.  Thank you for your patience.
