The guy looks like a rapist!! Maybe that's the only way he can get a girl eh??

vatoloco: Why did the deputy resign?
You tell us, you know everything around here.

Did anybody hear how his court hearing went today?

maybe he did it. but just like the 911 attackers, since our president is a jacka55, he is innocent until proven guilty.

vatoloco: Are your eyes glued shut? The girl awoke to this guy's hand under her clothes, so no you don't have a clue at all. You say your not blaming the victim but are you calling her a liar? sounds like you must be. I'd like to know what this guy was even doing in the same room with a passed out girl in the first place, he has guilt written all over him and maybe even perv. "my thought"

vatoloco: Why did the deputy resign?

"surely have no clue and you weren't there either"
Your absolutely right. You and I were not there so we are not qualified to speculate as to your statement "physical evidence was the marks on her body". Yes, there are marks but how can you assume that he did it. Those marks could have happened before all this occurred. Who knows? Apparently not you. Are the doctor of forensic medicine that performed the examiation? Highly unlikely.

I am not in any way blaming the victim or protecting the accused. When you convict somebody you have to make sure that all the evidence concludes that someone did what they did. Many people have been jailed wrongfully for bad evidence etc.

"but word on the street"

This is not proof, it's heresay.

vatoloco: Open your eyes, the 18 yr old girl was the witness and the physical evidence was the marks on her body .... what you can't read? You surely have no clue and you weren't there either ... i'd love to know where you think your coming from.

vatoloco: Don't know if it is true or not, but word on the street is that they found victim's tissue under deputy's fingernails.

"he was probably stupid enought to try and sexually assualt her"

A false assumption not based on physical evidence or any witnesses. You were not there so stop presenting yourself as though you know whats going on.

7tales: Please don't misinterpret what I am about to write. I am in no way downplaying the assault incident or the physical and emotional pain the victim is likely suffering. However, if she gets the proper counseling, there is a good chance she can move forward from this and not be "scarred for life". I only push this opinion because a growing number of sexual assault victims are able to get help and recover. It does not have to be the end of the world although I am sure it feels that way to many victims.

Let us not forget, this all stems from a former Rock County deputy accused of SEXUAL assault. He never should have been a participant of the party though he has been at others at the same house before. The owner never should have allowed the underage drinkers. All around sad situation, young woman scarred for life, home owner arrested, and man loses his career. Who in the world started this snowball effect?

I hope that former Officer from Evansville never finds work in law enforcement, he was something else. He does not belong in law enforcement. HE thought he was above the laws.

And his charge wasn't near as serious as this slacker's was.

The former Evansville officer who lives in Milton that got into a bar fight in January 2008 and was subsequently fired is still looking for work. He doesn't want to move, but still thinks he can get hired around here. Hello.

Town of Beloit, not Beloit.

he thought he was above the law,like some of them do,but he found out hes not.dont let this guy and the one in beloit make you think bad of all police officers,because i know quite a few good ones.

Hope he never get's another job as a cop

Under age drinkers, cop at the same party - GUILTY, cop loses his job - GREAT

From bits and pieces I have heard, this was a Halloween party attended by adults with a few "underage" people there. No different than attending a graduation party where alcohol is being served for the adult guests with high school graduates present! When I hear that this deputy was at an underage drinking party, I conjure up the thought of him being in a house "full" of people "under" the age of 21. The Gazette has a fabulous way of printing misleading information! With regards to the other allegations, if he is found guilty then he deserves some serious punishment!

"A talked with a man who used to work with this cop. When the discussion came up he says "hey-she was eighteen, theyre making it something it wasnt."

Please don't tell us what someone said, that's heresay.

"the teen told police" "She said she awoke"

Is there any physical evidence (or witnessess to corraborate her claims)
that ties this man to what she claims he did? Many people can say this or that but the evidence has to lead the way to support the accusations. Just simply relying on "she said" "she told" should not be enough to warrant an assault charge.

"a nurse found lacerations and an abrasion on the woman’s genitals."

Please prove without a doubt that he caused these injuries with physical evidence. If I say, that man gave me a black eye I have to provide credible witnessses and physical wevidence that support my claim. Too many people out there are devious and could say anything to get somebody in trouble.

Who knows, she might have gotten these lacerations elsewhere. How can they prove he did it?

blue21: Where are you from, who are you? You really need to wake up. I can't tell if you just have no clue or what ...

Blue21: We won't know because of confidentiality, but did you ever think that maybe the victim lived at the house where the incident took place and, thus, was passed out (sleeping?) in her own bed? I have no idea if this is the case, but I do know that it seems like you are blaming the victim.

BLUE21- YOU ARE blaming the victim. While, obviously, most of us ARE responsible enough to not pass out anywhere, FIRST OFF, this was an 18 year old girl. This quite easily could have been her first time drinking heavily and didn't know she would pass out. SECONDLY, HELLO? Are you kidding me? Just because someone is passed out DOES NOT give someone else the right to abuse her. I think 99% of men would NOT see a passed out woman and feel a desire for her. This man is sick. I don't care if she was 37. She was completely unaware... That makes her a victim, and, for you to imply that she holds responsibility implies that he couldn't control himself, and, is incredibly antiquated and sexist, and MOST DEFINITELY nothing but blaming the victim.

patriot1....you were doing good up until the point you wrote "He had no right to shed a "bad light" on the Sheriffs Department. He should have been fired just for that aspect of the case."

Apparently you are not familiar with the Wisconsin statutes and the seven steps of just cause as it pertains to disciplinary action against law enforcement officers.

Typically, from my understanding, in cases like this, he won't be in general population. He may even be shipped to some northern WI county for his safety. That's just how it seems to go.

jvgrl--I know. I am usually very angry about any of these types of charges.
I KNOW I will get bashed for this, but...
Although what he did was WRONG WRONG WRONG, what about the personal responsibility of the female to keep herself safe?
What if a female got drunk and passed out anywhere, then called the police and complained something happened? Perhaps she should have not gotten that drunk!
AGAIN I am not blaming the victim! But we need to NOT put ourselves in situations like that!!

Wow...What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty? Whether he resigned or not you don't have all the facts. Being at an underage party and allowing underage people to drink is a serious enough violation. The controversy surrounding the WHOLE incident is enough to destroy someone's reputation (even if they are later found innocent of certain violations) and it hurts the LE agency the person works for. Not ALL LE officers make mistakes. There are hundreds of LE officers in Rock County that you NEVER hear about. Don't be so quick to judge people. We have a judicial process for a reason. Just remember there are at least 3 sides to a story. It is not up to any one of us to decide what the truth is until we have all the facts and we are sitting in a jury box.

IF he is guilty I hope the public remembers that there are a small percentage of cops who insist on behaving this way as there are Teachers, Priests, Politicians and all human beings. This person, if guilty, is a disgrace to those officers who do there jobs properly, efficiently, and with respect for their badge and citizen they serve. Don't let your guard down....your neighbor could be the next one on the "hot seat"!!.

If he is found guilty, can you imagine the interest a cop in jail for 2nd degree sexual assualt of a young teen will draw? He will be real popular in the slammer!

WHAT A JERK, THE GIRL COULD BE HIS DAUGHTER, TALK ABOUT STUPID....BOOK HIM DANNY

I know this is a crazy thought, but maybe we shouldn't be so quick to hang him yet. There is a due process in this country, and public opinion has a habit of "screwing" it up. Let's see what a jury of his peers has to say. Yes, he was a pretty foolish guy, as a cop or otherwise, to even be near a party like that. Cops, just like Soldiers, have codes of conduct to follow. He had no right to shed a "bad light" on the Sheriffs Department. He should have been fired just for that aspect of the case. So, don't judge him before hearing ALL the evidence. It's the "American" thing to do.

I'm sure this guy didn't want the internal investigation to go on for a reason ... guessing he figured too much would be found out.

Just being at an under age drinking party and joining in on drinking games as a cop he should be fired anyways .... talk about poor judgement and coming from a cop no less.I know anything can happen but i really don't see this being a case of false allegation.

I'm glad to hear that she spoke up even though he is in law enforcement. It appears that he is guilty, but I do hope that it is not a false allegation. If it were false, I don't suppose he'd resign so quickly.

Figures
