A St. Paul priest under investigation for a sexual assault involving a juvenile was convicted of DWI in 2009.
A Fillmore County, Minn., sheriff’s deputy received a complaint Sept. 29, 2009, of a man in his 40s “asking 18 year olds where they live, go to school, and if they wanted to party with him,” according to a sheriff’s office report.
Deputy Tim Rasmussen identified the man as the Rev. Curtis Carl Wehmeyer, and cited him for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, a misdemeanor.
In the current case, St. Paul police arrested Wehmeyer, 47, on Friday, June 22, on suspicion of criminal sexual conduct. On June 21, police said they were told that Wehmeyer abused a juvenile male over a two-year period.
