A man convicted of violating a restraining order was released from prison a year early after his file was mixed up with those of other inmates slated to be freed, officials said. Five sheriff's officials were suspended and a deputy inspector was stripped of his command over the blunder Saturday that led to the release of Dennis Lee Eaton. Deputies failed to notice that Eaton's file said he was scheduled to get out on Oct. 19, 2003, and let him go exactly one year early, said Deputy Inspector Sherry Warichak. Sheriff's detectives took Eaton, 39, back into custody Saturday evening, Warichak said. Eaton, of Milwaukee, is serving two nine-month misdemeanor sentences for violating a restraining order and related offenses, she said. |
