MADISON (WKOW) -- Wisconsin lawmaker helped a double homicide suspect receive lifesaving care after contracting COVID-19.
Larrue's mother, Alice Larrue was concerned after her son's health got worse after he left the hospital the first time and went back to jail, so she sought help. That's when Rep. Stubbs stepped in.
Stubbs said Larrue's charges of two counts of homicide had no impact on her decision.
Rep. Shelia Stubbs said, "when I was reached out about Mr. Larrue, and I called Sheriff Mahoney, he took a look at the matter and I'm so happy to say that it was resolved he received the help that he needed medically, and his life was saved."
