Randy Wynn faces two counts of embezzlement over $10,000, but the criminal complaint indicates his illegal take over four years was closer to $800,000. Wynn, 61, made his initial appearance in court Thursday afternoon.
A year ago, Wynn told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that he was under investigation. He blamed the thefts on a gambling addiction and said he finally reported himself to the Milwaukee County district attorney's office and the state Supreme Court in November 2012.
"I'm cooperating 100% with everybody," Wynn said then. "I don't want to come off as someone who is running from this. ... No one caught me doing anything." He declined to comment further Thursday and referred questions to his attorney, Steven Kohn.
By July, he said he expected to be charged and deserved whatever punishment he gets, even prison. In August, his license to practice law was suspended, although a dissenting justice said he should be disbarred immediately.
