La Crosse Man Faces Child Abuse Charges | Madison News

A La Crosse man, Michael Ratzlaff, was arrested after a child came forward alleging he was brutally physically abused—hit over thirty times—with threats and punishment tactics including “one day off” per week. This isn’t his first rodeo: he’s got prior convictions for child neglect and endangerment dating back to 2009 and 2010. Now facing up to ten years in prison and $30K in fines, this case underscores the critical need for children to feel safe speaking up when abuse happens behind closed doors.
