After a drunken fight, one man walked away with massive injuries and two others with battery charges. Today, Pennau is saddled with medical bills he can’t pay and a failing credit score and financial setbacks he can’t get out of. He believes that wouldn’t be the case if it weren’t for case delays brought about by COVID-19.
Two years ago, Nick Pennau and his partner Amber stopped by a party in Marquette County on their way to Wisconsin Dells. They didn’t know anyone there; Nick’s sister had invited them.
It wasn’t long until things went bad. Everyone was drinking at the point Amber and another woman started fighting; some of the men got involved. Court records say Nick saw someone grab Amber, and that was when he stepped in. A few shoves later, Amber was on the ground getting kicked, court records say. Nick threw his body on top of her–and that’s the last thing he remembers.
