- “Give me the baby! Give me the baby!”
Those words are burned into Monica Nash’s memory.
She had just crawled out of the back window of her crumpled and totaled car, holding her 3-day-old daughter, when a man ran from the vehicle that hit her and demanded her baby.
That man fled in a waiting vehicle after witnesses stopped and before Milwaukee County Sheriff’s deputies arrived.
“I’m just sitting here in my head, praying to God, because this is just like the worst nightmare,” Nash said.
The hit-and-run crash happened on January 17, 2020.
Four years later, Nash is still fighting to solve the mystery of what happened to her on the side of Interstate 94, just west of American Family Field.

Omg that officer on the phone was so condescending and dismissive. It made me furious.
This women deserves justice!
She's gonna get that 🕯🕊🕯
I hope this deputy and this department are sued. This is horrible. There is something more going in this story, and it smells of corruption starting with deputy and that whole department.
💯 I bet the car that hit her was a cop and this is a big cover up
So had the lady not kept pushing for answer never would have known about this at all. Wonder how many similar incidents have also been swept under the rug? This is really scary.
There had to be a cop that caused the accident for the driver to become a ghost 💯
...or somebody related to a cop.
Shame on everyone of these " officers" and the DA!!!
She needs to sue!! And sue BIG
This is a bizarre story! I hope it gets more attention. That sorry excuse for a deputy and his whole department are definitely hiding something. They should be thoroughly investigated. I hope that woman and her baby get justice.
This story really pisses me off. They all should be fired and the department investigated. How dare they treat her that way?
Now it makes one wonder if this is one off or how many other times has this happened before? The only reason why she knew to navigate the process is because she was an employee of the department and she still could not get justice or at least not yet. Wonder if this all became national news how would they feel about it then? Maybe that is what needs to happen. So for those who have a lot of followers on different platforms pushing this story on those platforms will give it more potential to be picked up and pushed nationally.
The guardrail thing is probably one of the craziest parts of this. They were gonna charge her for a guardrail that she had nothing to do with and they acted like they did her a favor by removing that charge? 🤣 oh "but we're not required to" yeah I bet you wouldn't be saying that if she sued the living out of you people for doing so. Smh lol. What a joke of a department. Thank you TMJ4 for bringing light to this,
They thought she would go away because they did her a fake favor. Well... they thought wrong. Imagine if we lived in a world where investigative reporters did not exist or legally were not able to exist. There are actually countries like that, that the population of citizens are reduced to nothing. Yes the US has a lot of flaws it still needs to stick to comparable to other countries I think it could be far worse in my opinion.
Amazing work. Thank you for your reporging and assisting an innocent victim who continues to he victimized by the police.
I hope you both get justice. I’m sorry your dealing with such corruption.
That whole department is corrupt that copper needs to be charged he resigned thats not good enough we want justice ⚖️ he needs to be in prison
The deputy tried to cover up a vehicular assault and attempted kidnapping - he needs to sit in jail for a couple years
Awesome journalist!!
This poor woman. How stressful. Milwaukee Police have also let a young guy with 50+ speeding violations continue to drive. Hope she gets a good resolution. FBI needs to investigate Milwaukee PD.
I hope she sees this comment. 🙏
It isn't the fact that there is one deputy who criminally failed to do his job. It is the fact that the entire department closes ranks to cover for him that is so repugnant.
They all acted in concert. Just imagine how many other things that have been covered up? Looks like criminals are everywhere.
Wow…. An attempted kidnapping with witnesses IDing the criminal and nothing is done?!?! This is why I barely drive anymore, this is terrifying. They make carjacking victims fill out an online report sometimes now, of course it’s not investigated either, this is s as n example of why criminals are so brazen in Milwaukee!!😾
Outrageous!!!!!
This is so corrupt!!
A hit-and-run ghost....wow 😮
Why are they lying? This should be investigated by the DOJ. No one should be allowed to investigate themselves.
THIS IS WHY I LOVE WATCHING TMJ4 AND CHANNEL 12!!! REAL JOURNALISM AND REAL PEOPLE THANK YALL FOR SHARING WITH US!!!!
Sad to say, I am not surprised nor shocked. Nothing is going to prick the perpetrators of this crime or the officers who were straight-up racist in how they treated the victims because that was an attempted kidnapping of a child and hitting the victim's car.
Does Monica have an attorney? If not, she needs to get one immediately, a good one!
Good Lord. I mean, just good Lord. *Aaaaaahhhh!*. Protect and serve. How do these people sleep?
An attempted kidnapping!!! I hope an attorney sees this coverage and takes this case. I’m so glad this case is being brought to light by news coverage. This strong women and her daughter need someone to step in legally and help all the deplorable behavior and missteps from the police department and higher ups exposed in detail - in court.
What is worse, the lazy police officer or the cover up. Good cops covering up for bad cops. "We serve and protect ourselves"
Yeah, I don’t think they dropped the charge for the guardrail out of the kindness of their hearts.
Our country is totally fucked up.
The MCSO behaves like a bunch of criminals.
Why oh why are they protecting this poor excuse for a police officer,this is yet another example of police protecting their own above the citizens they were sworn to protect. Until that mentality stops policing will never be fair and honest.
Hit and run is a crime DA, whether if there's a suspect or not, where did you get your law degree?
Shut the whole department down
This is very alarming. How could they ignor not only the crash with a newborn inside but a man and woman demanding her baby . With 3 witnesses and one a policeman who the officer does not put his name or correct phone number. It clearly shows this was racial. SOMEONE NEEDS TO FIRE THIS COP. THIS POLICE DEPARTMENT VERY CLEARLY IS NOT BEING TRANSPARENT. If this happened and exposed to 1 very brave and a woman who is not going to stop fighting, how many others have had the same outxome. Just one more police department that does what they want and there is no office above them one can get help for their unjustice.
Great investigating work🕯🕊🕯they need to get very internal on this crime, Monica's unfortunate situation has open doors beyond just her case 🕯🕊🕯
Corruption is in every single police department, district attorney offices, courthouse & Corrections facilities.
This was attempted kidnapping. She should take the existing evidence to the feds.
This is insane. Dave always come through
This is so disgusting. Cases can be reopened. I wonder if they doctored the video
I am posting this everywhere that I can and I'm in Houston Texas. I don't have many followers on social media but I'm including this and even sending to friends. The elected leaders of this community are pathetic!!! Someone is covering for someone. They didn't even investigate to see who was driving I'll bet. Traffic cams, stores in the area to see who got in the driver's seat and most of all... THE ATTEMPTED KIDNAPPING OF THE BABY!!!
Send a copy to the local FBI and the DOJ. Both now have task forces for this sort of thing. My personal observation from the four videos is that there's a human trafficking ring in the area. It's not unusual for these trafficking opporations to have cops in their pockets. Could be wrong.
Why is nobody talking about the 'why' here? These people hit Monica's car on purpose, tried to take her baby, had a getaway vehicle parked at that exact location on the side of a highway late at night, and were willing to completely abandon their 'accident' vehicle on the side of the road. The only way that makes sense is that it was a planned ambush to try to kidnap the baby. Which means that they would have followed her to that location. To do that they would have either known her, or of her, and waited for her to be released from the hospital, or they were stalking any woman who was leaving the Mat ward with a baby. Somebody wanted that baby and was willing to go to great lengths to get it. Monica said there was a man and a woman in that car. Was he stealing the baby for his wife to raise? Or for something more sinister? Or maybe to be sold to someone else? Whatever the reason, it was strong enough to warrant all of those steps and the risks involved. They could have crashed their car and been hurt. A cop may have caught them at the scene. By leaving the car there they basically forfeited it (or did they retrieve it from car jail at a later date?). The car went somewhere and we need to know where and why. And since the owner did not say it was stolen, then it has to be him.
He was right there. His name, face, location, everything was, and is, known. That cop initially looked like he was doing a mostly proper investigation while still on-scene (based on the bodycam video). But I have to wonder how many coincidences would have to come together for all of that evidence to become deleted, lost, forgotten about, mis-spelled, and more to such an extent that the crime could not be proven? That's too many coincidences. I'm no conspiracy theorist, far from it, but this sounds even fishier than the accident/kidnapping scene itself. One cop can't mess up that badly by accident after serving for 24 years. Which means, most likely, that the suspect made it worth his while to bury this case. We know the cop had him identified on the incident night and that they spoke on the phone at least once. So, when did the bribe take place? Surely that cop didn't have prior knowledge that it was going to take place? He was at the scene within 2-3 minutes and that is on a major roadway. That's fast.
The more I think about all of the details of this case, the fishier it smells! And now I know that cop has been on some sort of leave since February and resigned (probably retired with full pension) in early April, maybe a week or so ago. Why?
I would say the whole thing could be made up if I had not heard that audio of those internal investigators interviewing him and him confirming everything that Monica and the witnesses said. And saw the dashcam video. So there's no doubt about how the incident itself went down. But the fact that it happened at all, and then appeared to be purposefully covered up, is quite alarming. Not just because it confirms the existence of crooked cops, but that there are people out there following new moms home and going to great lengths to try to steal their babies. That's my biggest concern. And nobody talked about that in this report. The focus is on the officer and not the suspect. I hope the case is re-opened. They may not be able to prove much in a criminal court, but at least it would acknowledge and validate Monica. And if she can't get criminal justice, she might be able to get civil justice via a lawsuit, which she will absolutely win. Those internal investigators have already made the case for her with that interview.
Wow, I almost wrote a whole book there! But what a weird and fascinating story. Probably will see it on Netflix in a couple years. Whatever happens, I hope Monica finds peace and justice. She is brave, intelligent, and strong! If anyone can resolve this matter properly it would be her! You go Girl!!!
the thin blue line flag on the wall in the hallway tells the entire story.
The Higher Standard of Law Enforcement 😪
Who cares who was driving...he tried to steal her baby!!
Everything should be inventoried and housed off-site.
Cops should be required to house and maintain ALL copies of records & recordings for 8 years prior to destruction date., quarterly review of inventory and annual audit.
I have no idea what the process is now but I bet it not even remotely similar to what I've just suggested.
Great reporting. ❤🎉
It is unbelievable that people still some how think cops are good people.
There is NO WAY that cop isnt in on this. Sick puppies.
Excellent work. 👍🏼
I'm speechless
Great work again guys It is truly disgusting and disappointing that there are ppl like this in police depts So much for the few bad apples claim
The lieutenant think she can be 'bought'.
This is a criminal case, not a traffic accident/hit and run. Aggravated assault, attempted kidnapping
Attempted kidnapping!!
The lieutenant being somewhat of a jerk to her about saying the case is over is giving me a mixed opinion. Is he just being I guess man that’s delivering a message only. Or is he just not informed and doesn’t want to be bothered with her anymore. It’s like some call-center employees Who basically are following steps and so when you try to rationalize with them they just can’t hear it because they’re trying to not go more than one degree off of their policy outlines, even when rationally it doesn’t make sense.
Police corruption finest 🎉for the world to see 😮they don't care at all, file complaint and lawsuit for stupidity 😅
That was disgusting there is a police force I think they are called FBI maybe they should look into this matter Again disgusting
To that sheriff's department, she is an 'inconvenient woman'. The problem is that she works the police department of the city nearby and the Sheriff's department don't want any trouble with them.
Lies lies and more lies
Outrageous- and the taxpayers pay for this!! Makes you wonder about all his other cases. In most other jobs, if you had that many disciplinary problems and were so careless with details, you’d be fired. It’s infuriating.
Im speechless
Sounds like the whole department is full of doughnut vacuums
And WHY - is this deputy NOT in prison ????
Contact the DOJ. File a lawsuit.
update would be great
Police Cartel
Deputy knws the Person who wrecked into lady. He covered up a Crime
Does she have a Go Fund Me or anything? If she needs donations, make it known bc myself and I'm certain others, would donate.
Looks like shawn bacich spent more time consuming donuts than actually doing the job the taxpayers paid for.
Guardrail? I thought her insurance would be paying for all that🤨
Why would she be responsible for that? The driver who hit her vehicle is responsible.
@@harumphsezmoi9781 I was in a similar situation years back my insurance paid for it all. Usually, the city will bill your insurance ASAP.
Everyone has to go
How long does a store keep their footage? … Obviously that car hit her on purpose. They meant to take the baby and somehow had a get away car. But how did they know she had a baby? I bet they followed her from the store. They saw her with her baby and followed her. I bet the racist cop didn’t even investigate that far.
The person that tried to kidnap her baby had to be affiliated with someone. Thats the real story
What's a "civilian police officer"? A person is either a civilian employee of the police department or an officer.
I think they mean as opposed to a military police officer.
People of Milwaukee, time to wake up, this is your tax dollars at work. Is this good enough? Demand better, next time it might be you and your child!
Dave? Don't tell me they ran you out of Phoenix...
I just thought the same thing! He’s the only reason I watch ABC15 and I don’t even live in AZ
So, remind me again. Why do we need the police again?
Just let the FBI get involved
Be a pitbull ! It’s a child theft ring …..
I see nothing wrong with them recording you all, so you seem to be one-sided with that. They want to make sure there’s a record of what is happening so that way no misunderstandings or false allegations are made. And then you flip that into some kind of harassment or some thing, that really brings a lot of questions into your objectivity and rationality.
Are you serious?
@@morna1953- Umm, yeppers. I guess walking in a public building with the security camera is also “harassment“. Smh
This whole incident is a COVER-UP. They absolutely know who caused the accident and they’re protecting him/her. Must be nice to have family or friends on the force so your crimes can magically disappear.
Someone hits her and the state knows that; but couldn’t determine who was driving do they went after the victim. They know who it is just too lazy to investigate.
Those videos disappear all the time. I wonder why that is. What are they covering up? Hmmmm
Mmmmm i can guarantee both transport and pigs joined forces that night and maliciously put a 6 grand charge to her in hope the city would not have fitted the bill and its really suspicious with the car scenario and the pathalogical lying pigs, police employees or family member?!?
7:31 hand your rights over to the government and they will treat you and your rights as a privilege
This act of these cops being able to resign to escape criminal charges must stop. If you or I am charged with a criminal act, we just can't resign and that's the end of it. 🤣🪖🤣
