From MADISON.COM, Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate's daughter wanted by state:
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Online court records show Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate James Daley's daughter has been a fugitive since 2008.
The state filed a warrant for Maureen Daley's arrest in June 2008 after she failed to appear on charges of operating while intoxicated. The warrant is still outstanding.
Daley in a statement said the issue should not impact the campaign and that he hopes people will pray for those who struggle with dependency. He did not say where his daughter is.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court's rules on judicial duty say judges have a responsibility to notify authorities about judges and lawyers who violate rules of professional conduct. They don't address whether judges have a responsibility to notify authorities of fugitives' whereabouts if they know them.
Holy Shit! An October Surprise in APRIL!!
More details...
Deputies for the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office arrested Maureen E. Daley on two counts of third-offense OWI on April 14, 2008 after she allegedly ran her car into a ditch on Highway 12 in the Township of Koshkonong. She was 33 years-old at the time.
A criminal complaint states that when asked if she had been drinking, Maureen Daley told deputies "it's obvious." A blood test later showed Daley had a blood alcohol level of 0.304 - nearly four times the legal limit.
But Daley never made her initial court appearance set for June 9, 2008, causing Jefferson County Court Commissioner Jennifer Weston to issue a bench warrant for her arrest. That warrant is still open.
A campaign spokesperson told 27 News Judge Daley has tried to convince his daughter to return to Wisconsin and face those charges.
So where is she Mr. Daley? Is there no honor in "Your Honor?"
