MADISON — There is a renewed call for enforcing hate crimes laws in Wisconsin, and in the spotlight: a northeast Wisconsin murder. This effort comes in advance of Wednesday’s scheduled sentencing of James Nichols of Peshtigo. He was convicted of killing Cha Vang, a Hmong hunter from Green Bay. FOX 11′s Mark Leland has balanced coverage from Madison on a push to make the public and legislators aware of racial injustice.
