"Brad Schimel Did Not Seek Jail Time for 17-Year-Olds Who Assaulted Younger Teens in Early 2000s"Attorney General Brad Schimel did not recommend jail time in a pair of cases where 17-year-olds sexually assaulted younger victims when he was a county prosecutor in the early 2000s, court records show. … In another case, Schimel in 2004 charged Sean Kebbekus with second-degree sexual assault of a child. In a plea deal, he reduced the charge to third-degree sexual assault. Kebbekus was 17 and the girl was 15. According to the criminal complaint, she agreed to go to a party with him, but he instead drove her to a cul-de-sac and took off his pants. He removed her clothing and began having sex with her. She loudly told him to stop several times and he stopped. He told her if she told anyone about it he would do it again, according to the complaint. Schimel recommended three to five years of probation for Kebbekus. …

"Man Pleads No Contest to Two 1975 Sexual Assaults"A 51-year-old man has pleaded no contest to reduced charges on accusations he sexually assaulted of (sic) two girls in 1975 when they were 8 and 9 years old. Ned Clesceri of Des Plaines, Ill., entered the pleas Monday in Waukesha County Circuit Court to two counts of indecent behavior with a child, while two counts of sexual intercourse with a child were dismissed. ‘‘That’s not a typographical error,’’ Waukesha County District Attorney Brad Schimel told Reserve Judge Richard Becker as he looked over a criminal complaint. ‘‘We’re here because of something that happened several decades ago.’’ … Sentencing is scheduled for Jan. 7, at which time Clesceri faces prison terms totaling up to 20 years. The plea agreement, however, calls for prosecutors to recommend probation and an order that he undergo therapy.

"Des Plaines Man To Be Sentenced for '75 Abuse"A Des Plaines man has admitted sexually abusing two sisters in Wisconsin during summer 1975. Ned N. Clesceri, 51, pleaded no contest this week to two charges of indecent behavior against the then-9- and 8-year-old girls. … Clesceri has acknowledged the abuse happened, his attorney Jack P.

Ned Clesceri, 52, pleaded no contest last fall to two counts of indecent behavior with a child. … District Attorney Brad Schimel…said Clesceri deserved some consideration for not taking the case to trial or challenging it in any way. … He made no recommendation for a jail term, saying punishment 30 years after the fact would do less good than the case has by shining the light of truth on the matter. … After the hearing, one of the sisters said she was disappointed that there was no jail time imposed…
