The Milwaukee man accused of stabbing his 44-year-old girlfriend to death then allegedly confessing to the crime in a text message was found not competent to stand trial and unable to assist in his own defense.

Mile Dukic has been in custody at the Milwaukee County Jail since his arrest in February, following the brutal killing of Amanda Varisco, 44.

Dukic is charged with first-degree intentional homicide, use of a dangerous weapon, and felony counts of bail jumping.

The doctor’s report was submitted to the court April 9, online court records show. At an April 10 hearing, Dukic, attending by Zoom, and his lawyers Arial Rosenberg and Theodore O’Reilly did not contest any of the report’s conclusions.

Court proceedings were ordered suspended by Circuit Court Judge David Swanson, and Dukic was assigned to the Department of Health and Family Services for institutional treatment to restore competency.

Swanson ordered the parties to return for a review hearing on July 9 to report progress.

Here’s what police and prosecutors say happened that night

According to a criminal complaint, Dukic and Varisco had a physical altercation on Feb. 3 at an apartment on the 3600 block of West National Avenue.

Milwaukee police were sent there that night to do a welfare check.

Officers arrived and talked to Varisco’s daughter and the daughter’s boyfriend at the scene. The daughter shared with police a text message she said she received from Dukic in which he claimed he had killed her mother, the complaint said.

Dukic told officers in an interview he and Varisco fought because Varisco had gotten a phone call from another man and that she told Dukic she wanted him to leave, the complaint reads.

Online court records show Dukic was out on bail in two cases at the time of Varsico’s death – one for stalking another woman, one for bail jumping.

Bruce Springsteen has released a new protest song titled “Streets of Minneapolis” that sharply criticizes the Trump administration and federal immigration enforcement agents. The song pays tribute to Renee Good and Alex Pretti, two civilians who were killed in recent incidents involving ICE and Border Patrol in Minneapolis. Springsteen uses the track to express outrage over the ongoing presence and actions of ICE in the city, referring to Trump and his agents as a “private army” responsible for “state terror.” The lyrics directly address the fear felt by immigrant communities and even U.S. citizens under the current administration.

Why it matters

Springsteen’s protest song reflects the widespread anger and fear within communities about the treatment of immigrants and legal residents under the Trump administration. The track adds to the growing chorus of voices, including politicians and public figures, demanding the removal of ICE from Minneapolis and other areas. As the national debate over immigration policy continues, Springsteen’s use of his platform to advocate for social justice raises questions about the role of artists in driving political and social change.

The details

In the song, Springsteen refers to Trump and his agents as “federal thugs” responsible for the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Good, a mother of three, was killed by ICE agents on January 7, and Pretti, an ICU nurse, was shot by Border Patrol agents on January 24. These incidents have sparked protests nationwide. Springsteen’s lyrics poignantly reference both victims, including the lines: “And there were bloody footprints / Where mercy should have stood / And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets / Alex Pretti and Renee Good.” The song also features prominent chants of “ICE out,” mirroring the collective call for the removal of ICE from Minneapolis and other areas.

• Springsteen wrote the song on Saturday, April 6, 2026.
• The song was recorded and released on Sunday, April 7, 2026.

What they’re saying

What’s next

Springsteen is expected to perform the song live at upcoming tour dates, further amplifying his message and drawing attention to the ongoing issues surrounding immigration enforcement in Minneapolis and across the country.
