March 13th, 2026: Oconto Falls grooming scandal, Continuing Coverage Check-In, 15 years since Fukushima

from Reporter's Notebook · host Adam Roberts

Every week on Reporter’s Notebook, WTMJ’s Adam Roberts talks with members of the WTMJ newsroom, as well as reporters from newsrooms from around the state, to get the full picture when it comes to the stories they choose to tell. On this week's episode: Three former students in Oconto Falls join a federal civil rights lawsuit accusing the northern Wisconsin school board of allowing a culture of grooming and sexual abuse to persist over a two-decade period. We explore why this investigation could serve as a litmus test for grooming prosecution in Wisconsin. WTMJ's Neil Doyle breaks down a police chase that turned deadly on Milwaukee's south side involving a cop hanging from a speeding tow truck. We recap several stories previously covered on Reporter's Notebook in our first "Continuing Coverage Check-In". A look back at 15 years since the Fukushima earthquake and nuclear disaster in Japan.
