There is a property here locally, that was once privately owned by a couple. Long story short, the wife was murdered in the house by the husband, but they were unable to prove it. He got off the criminal charges, but was found guilty in civil court to the tune of over 5M. The lot (not sure if house is still there, its heavily wooded) has sat untouched for the last 20 years. On my local county tax/deed/plot map online, it appears the lot was assumed into the state park and is now owned by the State of Wisconsin Conservation Commission (DNR?). I am unsure why (maybe because of bankruptcy) the state conservation comm. would have gotten the land but... Who would I go about contacting to see if they would be interested in re-marketing the lot again? Start calling down to the state over and over and over till i get the right guy?

PS- You might think I am weird for wanting it, but it is a prime lot that backs up to a state park, is heavily wooded, and sits on a creek with excellent fly fishing, only about 5 minutes into town and the interstate to Minneapolis, and I can only imagine in its current condition, has potential.
