A 48-year-old Wisconsin State patrolman has been charged in Green County Circuit Court with three felony counts of sexual assault of a child who was placed in his Town of Clarno home for foster care in November 2008, a criminal complaint says.

James M. Norquay was suspended without pay indefinitely, pending an independent administrative investigation of the allegations, State Patrol Capt. Charles Teasdale said. Norquay is a trooper with the patrol's southwest region.

Norquay adopted the child in November 2009 and one of the sexual assaults occurred a month later, according to the criminal complaint filed by special prosecutor Dennis Krueger, an assistant attorney general.

The child was 15 years old at the time of the first assault. She is now 18.

The assaults continued until the child was removed from the home on Jan. 2 of this year, the complaint says. FULL STORY

The victims are by definition “troubled” and unlikely to be believed if they do make an allegation
