PRAIRIE DU CHIEN -- Wisconsin corrections officials made a rare exception for a medium-security prison inmate who was granted temporary leave for his father's funeral. Department of Corrections' policy allows for such a leave only for minimum-security prisoners. In this case, the father of the inmate, Thomas Christ was fatally shot near Wausaukee by a bank robbery who later killed state Trooper Trevor Casper and then committed suicide. Corrections spokeswoman Joy Staab tells the State Journal that Timothy Christ has a record of "absolute compliance" during his time at Prairie du Chien Correctional Institution. Staab says the extraordinary circumstances surrounding the death of Christ's father also played a role in his temporary release March 31st.
