I followed up on some free Wisconsin classifieds here at theBubbler and found this information about a place called Lake Manor in Ocomomowoc:
Minutes
From the Oconomowoc Common Council Minutes:
Minutes of November 21, 2006: Motion by Cochrane to approve the Common Council Minutes of the November 21, 2006 meetings as written; second by Jones. Motion carried 7-0.
Comments and suggestions from citizens:
1) A number of adults and minors spoke regarding issues involving Alexis Michael, owner of Lake Manor Bed and Breakfast at 317 N. Lake Road. A handout was given to Council members. They are looking for the City to pull any permits issued, shut down the business and investigate various complaints. Those being:1) Employees not receiving paychecks, 2) Minors being left in charge, 3) Alcohol, 4) Firearms, 5) Sexual Misconduct, 6) Identity theft concerns, 7) CUP conditions, 8 ) Employees accused of theft, 9) Threats/Assault and 10) Working conditions. Because of the nature of some of the allegations involving minors and an on-going investigation, names of individuals are being withheld.

One post from the forum:
More than 25 parents and students will be attending a City councel meeting Dec. 5, 2006 @7:30 PM at the City Hall in regards to Lake Manor and it's sole owner Alexis Michael. Alexis has 5 other allias names include Sarah Billard, whom all the children and parents know her as. Alexis has been stealing their identities and using the information to open credit card accounts, Bank account, and putting utilities in their names. She has also refused to pay the minor workers until they provide this additional information. She is accused of sexual misconduct against several of the boys. She has even gone so far as showing several of the children a picture of an ex-employee and telling them to take her gun out of her desk drawer and shot him it this ex-employee showed up on the property. Attend the City council meeting and hear the rest of the story.

The owner is supposedly an attorney, using five aliases. How can this be?
If anyone else knows something about this, please let us know.
