Curtis Wehmeyer, the former St. Paul priest serving a five-year prison term for molesting two boys from his parish, has been charged in a separate Wisconsin case.
An investigator for the Chippewa County district attorney’s office interviewed a victim who said he was sexually assaulted by Wehmeyer, 50, during a 2011 camping trip at Brunet Island State Park in Estella, Wis., according to a criminal complaint.
The boy, who was 17 or 18 at the time, said Wehmeyer gave him alcohol and marijuana, the complaint said. He became intoxicated and Wehmeyer walked him to bed after he vomited, the boy said.
Wehmeyer went to a bed on the other side of the camper, but the boy “awoke to Mr. Wehmeyer’s hand down his pants touching (his genitals),” the complaint said.
