A disgraced Wisconsin prosecutor 'winked several times' during a secret recording of his sexual relations with a woman he was prosecuting, court records show.
Daniel Steffen, a disgraced Burnett County, Wisconsin, prosecutor, was sentenced to 18 months in prison for secretly recording himself having sex, including with one woman he was prosecuting.
Steffen's illegal escapades between 2018 and 2020 were exposed after a witness told investigators that"Victim 1,""openly talked about having sexual relations with a Burnett County ADA in exchange for leniency on criminal cases." The woman was in court after violating an order of protection against her child's father. She ultimately had to pay a fine.
The recordings were from Feb. 11, Aug. 8 and Sept. 11, 2018, and,"It does not appear that VICTIM #1 knew she was being recorded," according to the complaint.
