Path to prosecution

Gruenke, 42, didn’t always plan to be an attorney. He was a criminal justice major at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville without a plan for his degree when his adviser suggested he pursue a career as a prosecutor.

Victims are his priority, and Gruenke has a great ability to connect with them, advocates say. He listens. He’s honest. He cares.

A partner to police

Gruenke always is available to police, often showing up at crime scenes to offer guidance and another perspective, said Kudron, who worked alongside Gruenke on sexual assault and homicide investigations.

The Koula case

The Eric Koula case could be the most significant of Gruenke’s career, but he doesn’t want the case to define it. He hopes he’s remembered for giving everything to all his cases.
