the following is brief passage, also from the PCA & arrest warrant NOTING Mazwell's behavior:

Discovery of a Severed Human Leg in Warnimont Park

On Tuesday, April 2nd, 2024, around 5:29pm, members of law enforcement including the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office and Cudahy Police Department responded to Warnimont Park located at 5400 S. Lake Drive to a report of a human leg located on the beach. First responders were led by the citizen who called police to the leg. Responding deputies located the right leg of what appeared to be a black female. The leg was severed just below the hip socket and appeared to have been sawn off. The toes on the feet had pink nail polish. The leg did not appear to be decomposing.

Deputy Leon Martin was one of the first responding Sheriff’s deputies. Deputy Martin spoke to EM who discovered the leg. EM stated he was meeting his friend at the park. EM stated he and his friend were walking towards the beach/water and then saw the leg just north of the Warnimont pump house at the shoreline.

Deputy Martin reports that the area where the leg was located contains a bluff that is approximately 100 feet tall. The leg was originally found about 2/3 of the way down the bluff, towards the water’s edge.

Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office Detective Nathan Spittlemeister searched the area of the park for any cameras that may have captured something related to the discarding of the leg. Detective Spittlemeister located a video from Cudahy High School that shows the parkways nearest to the pump house at the shoreline. The road that leads to the pump house is closed to vehicle traffic by a gate secured with a padlock and chain. The video footage shows, at approximately 2:53am, a vehicle entering the video frame heading eastbound on the parkway towards the road to the pump house. The video shows that vehicle did not make a southbound or northbound turn once reaching the intersection nearest to the service road. The vehicle disappears from the video footage, consistent with the vehicle driving down the road that leads to the pump house. Complainant knows this service road to the pump house would be the furthest that a car could go to get near Lake Michigan in that area. Detective Spittlemeister spoke to Cudahy Police Detective Brian Olson who informed Detective Spittlemeister that on the morning of April 2nd, 2024, employees of the Cudahy Water Department reported that the service gate had been struck by a vehicle. The damage to the gate was done after the evening of April 1st, and before the morning of April 2nd, 2024—this is consistent with when the vehicle is seen on video driving onto that service road. Detective Joseph Blanchar from the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office went to the pump house gate and recovered broken pieces of a vehicle that were determined to belong to a Honda Civic. These damaged pieces would be consistent with the vehicle ramming the gate to get through.

 DEFENSE OF INSANITY

_____________________

The insanity defense is a legal tactic that can be used to argue that a person with a mental illness was not responsible for their actions. This can be for a variety of reasons. The Defendant may claim they were experiencing PSYCHOSIS; AT THE TIME in which they committed the crime. The defendant must demonstrate that they were suffering from a mental illness AT THE TIME of the crime and that this illness prevented them from understanding the nature and quality of their actions or from knowing that their actions were wrong in order to use the insanity defense effectively. A growing body of evidence points to a POSSIBLE CONNECTION  between mental illness and postmortem dismemberment. A number of people who have been found guilty of post-mortem dismemberment, for instance, have a history of mental illness, particularly schizophrenia, according to one study. Nevertheless, it is essential to keep in mind that not all individuals who engage in post-mortem dismemberment are mentally ill. This kind of crime may be committed by some for sexual pleasure or as a means of expressing rage or vengeance. In studies of cases involving post-mortem dismemberment, the following are some of the variables that have been investigated and what research had yielded thus far

1. MENTAL STATUS AT TIME OF CRIME: As previously stated, a growing body of research points to a possible connection between mental illness and post-mortem dismemberment.

2. MOTIVATIONS OF THE PERP: Post-mortem dismemberment can have a variety of reasons. This kind of crime may be committed by some for sexual pleasure or as a means of expressing rage or vengeance.

3. HOW THIS TYPE OF OFFENDER TYPICALLY PRESENTS: Post-mortem dismemberment perpetrators are frequently men with a violent past. Additionally, they may have a history of substance abuse or mental illness.

4. VICTIM SELECTION: The victims of post-mortem dismemberment are typically women who are acquainted with the offender.

5. HOW THIS CRIME SCENE USUALLY PRESENTS: In a post-mortem dismemberment case, the scene of the crime is frequently horrifying and may contain evidence of torture or mutilation. Sometimes the offender has a secondary gain in their actions. They may leave body parts in places meant to stoke fear amongst the demographics where the body part(s) are found.

  The insanity defense is a legal tactic that can be used to argue that a    person with a mental illness was not responsible for their actions. The defendant must demonstrate that they were suffering from a mental illness at the time of the crime and that this illness prevented them from understanding the nature and quality of their actions or from knowing that their actions were wrong in order to use the insanity defense effectively. There is no assurance that a defendant will prevail in court if they use the insanity defense, which is a contentious legal issue. However, a defendant may be found not guilty on the grounds of insanity if they can demonstrate that they were insane AT THE TIME of the crime.
