Revocation hearing reset for Travis Jerabek By Kevin Boneske For The News-Chronicle A Kewaunee man released about a year early from prison for the hit-and-run death of a 6-year-old Luxemburg boy has a revocation hearing scheduled for Nov. 1 at the Brown County Jail before an administrative law judge, who will decide whether he should go back to prison, said Linda Imhoff of the state Division of Hearings and Appeals. She said the hearing, which is closed to the public, had been set for Tuesday, Oct. 12, before being rescheduled. Department of Corrections spokesman Bill Clausius said Travis Jerabek, 22, has been in custody on a hold of his extended supervision since his arrest Aug. 18 in the city of Kewaunee, based upon allegations of domestic violence and battery. Clausius said Jerabek is accused of violating two rules of extended supervision as they relate to having no contact with the alleged victim and avoiding bad conduct. According to a revocation hearing notice, Clausius said Jerabek had a physical altercation the night of Aug. 17 with a former girlfriend he was prohibited from contacting. He allegedly hit her on the head with a mallet-type hammer, which caused her to bleed. While Jerabek also could face new charges in connection with those allegations, Clausius said the revocation hearing is being handled as a separate matter. The DOC has recommended Jerabek's extended supervision be revoked and that he return to prison for almost two years, Clausius said, while the administrative law judge will have 10 working days after the hearing to issue an order regarding a possible revocation. Kewaunee County District Attorney Andrew Naze said he was waiting on evidence being tested by the State Crime Lab before making a decision on whether to file new charges against Jerabek. While a charging decision would be based on Jerabek's alleged altercation with his ex-girlfriend, Naze said the revocation hearing could take into account that Jerabek was to have no contact with her while on extended supervision. Jerabek had been sentenced May 31, 2001, to two years in prison after he pleaded no contest to felony charges of hit-and-run death and bailjumping, along with a misdemeanor count of violating a harassment restraining order. His sentence also included another five and a half years of extended supervision, followed by an additional five years of probation. Jerabek was accused of leaving the accident scene with his truck Dec. 9, 2000, when he struck Brett Jauquet, who had been crossing Luxemburg's Main Street on foot after leaving St. Mary's School. The boy died that day from his injuries. Court records note Jerabek completed the state's Challenge Incarceration Program, also known as "boot camp." State law allows convicted felons completing the program to be released from prison with their unserved confinement time converted to extended supervision. This is not the first time Jerabek returned to custody following his release from prison. Early last year, he spent about a week in the Kewaunee County Jail for what the DOC called "minor violations" of his extended supervision rules, but then was released after agreeing to comply with those rules.
