Relating to: classification of the crime of impersonating law enforcement officers, fire fighters, and certain other emergency personnel and providing a penalty.

AB 136 makes it a Class A misdemeanor to intentionally impersonate a peace officer, firefighter, emergency medical services practitioner, or emergency medical responder with the intent to mislead others into believing the person is actually an emergency personnel member. The bill directly affects individuals who falsely claim these roles to deceive others, such as by wearing uniforms or using official equipment. Key provisions define specific penalties for each type of impersonation, clarifying that the offense applies when someone acts with deceptive intent. This legislation updates Wisconsin law to explicitly classify these impersonations as criminal acts with standardized misdemeanor penalties.
