Two UW-L students accused in sexual assault

Two University of Wisconsin-La Crosse freshmen are accused of sexually assaulting another male student Monday afternoon in a residence hall room.

Casey Gudis, 18, of Ladysmith, Wis., and Brayden Wienke, 19, of Clear Lake, Wis., are expected to be charged Oct. 6 in La Crosse County Circuit Court with first-degree sexual assault. They were released today on $5,000 signature bonds and are not allowed contact with campus.

The victim, also a freshman, immediately reported the incident and university police acted swiftly, UW-L Chancellor Joe Gow said. The three students did know each other before the incident, he said.

From what I know, I dont think this has anything to do with hazing, Gow said.

Gudis and Wienke were not drinking, the chancellor said.

University police did not release an arrest report, citing an open
investigation.

Lots of signs for a conviction there. It was reported immediately. They didn't know each other prior. No drinking involved.

Of course, it doesn't say what the actual act was.

Actually, the article says they did know each other prior.

The way the Wisconsin sexual assault statutes are written, the perps could have brandished a banana, and if the victim thought it was a dangerous weapon, it qualifies as first-degree sexual assault, a Class B felony punishable by up to 60 years.

Bananas are dangerous (at least the peel). Haven't you ever seen a Tom and Jerry cartoon?

The fact that bananas don't come with warning labels amazes me.

Not as dangerous as the plantain, of course. Anything that is beast eaten after it looks rotten (avocados, truffles) needs a goddam environmental impact statement and hazardous materials warning.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I'm assuming the 'perps' were female?

It always amazes me to see full names in articles like this. Over here, they'd get shown as Casey G. and Brayden W.

Ah, I completely misread that.

Yeah, or they could have shoved the banana up his ass until he was bleeding. It really could be a case of sexual assault, you know.

I know that. My point was that the law is so broad, it's impossible to get any idea of what kind of actions these men committed from the charge itself.

FIRST DEGREE SEXUAL ASSAULT. Whoever does any of the following is guilty of a Class B felony:

(a) Has sexual contact or sexual intercourse with another person without consent of that person and causes pregnancy or great bodily harm to that person.

(b) Has sexual contact or sexual intercourse with another person without consent of that person by use or threat of use of a dangerous weapon or any article used or fashioned in a manner to lead the victim reasonably to believe it to be a dangerous weapon.

(c) Is aided or abetted by one or more other persons and has sexual contact or sexual intercourse with another person without consent of that person by use or threat of force or violence.



So did they cause "great bodily harm"? I'd guess not, since he was able to report the crime immediately. Did they make or threaten to make use of a "dangerous weapon" or something that the victim thought might be a dangerous weapon? Or were they charged because they acted in concert and therefore "aided or abetted" each other?

Interestingly, the Wisconsin courts have ruled that the "great bodily harm" does not have to be caused by the sexual act itself. So by the definition of "sexual contact" under Wisconsin statutes, they could theoretically have grabbed this guy's balls or urinated on him, then later beat him up for some reason, and that would also count as first-degree sexual assault.

It's simply impossible to know what happened from the phrase "first-degree sexual assault."

No pun intended, but it takes a lot of balls to report something like that.
