Thank you, pzykronic, for clarifying that. Can you do a bit of quick editing, though, and remove the child's name from your post. We don't want to get in trouble. We're not supposed to use the names of possible or alleged victims.
I hope he's going away for a long long time.

We've waited a long time for this, but not nearly as long as the victims and their families.

"In a Thursday hearing, accused sex offender Warren Henkelman pleaded no contest to two felony charges in return for the state dropping 10 other charges.
At the Columbia County Circuit Court hearing, Henkelman, 43, of Portage, waived a jury trial when he pleaded no contest to one felony charge of first-degree child sexual assault, which was sexual contact with a person younger than 13, and one count of first-degree possession of child *advertiser censored*.
Under the charges, he faces a maximum of 75 years of imprisonment, up to $100,000 in fines and lifetime supervision...."
and
"...In June 1992, Henkelman was convicted of third-degree rape of a child younger than 16 in Oregon, and he failed to inform authorities of his sex offender status when he moved to Wisconsin...."

IIRC, this guy failed to inform his new wife and family when he moved to Wisconsin too. I guess he thought he'd make a new start. My prayers go out to this monster's young victims. May they finally get some closure.

He is, according to a Columbia County judge, "damaged goods" and a danger to the public - and was ordered Tuesday to 25 years in prison.
Calling him a "substantial danger to the public," Judge Daniel George sentenced Portage resident Warren J. Henkelman, 43, to 20 years in prison on a charge of felony first-degree child sexual assault of a person under the age of 13; the sentence is half the maximum initial penalty of 40 years in prison.
The charge is "about as serious an offense as there is in our justice system, short of taking someone's life," George told Henkelman at the hearing in Columbia County Circuit Court, and that Henkelman has damaged the victims, who will face a lifetime of recovery.
George also sentenced Henkelman to serve an additional five years in prison on a charge of felony possession of child *advertiser censored*.
--------------------------------------------
Henkelman was ordered to serve a combined 15 years on extended supervision after he is released from prison; as conditions, Henkelman must be a lifetime registrant on the sex offender registry, may not have contact with minors without permission, must undergo psycho-sexual evaluation and sex offender treatment, may not possess *advertiser censored* or a computer or have access to the internet, may not possess photographic or video equipment and must maintain absolute sobriety.
As part of a plea agreement, the county dropped 10 charges in the case, including three other sexual assault charges, four other *advertiser censored* charges, a misdemeanor possession of THC (marijuana) and a misdemeanor for exposing his genitals to a child.
An appeal in the case is "very likely," according to Benavides.

It appears they may have decided against an appeal?
They kept extending the time they had to file an appeal... but they extended it within a few days of the last extension ending.
It has been 3 weeks since the last extension ended and they haven't filed another one... so has time run out?
Here they are...
Submit Date: 1-19-2012
ORD that the time to file a postconviction motion or notice of appeal is extended to February 14, 2012.

25 years for a serial child sex offender is not nearly enough. He should have gotten LWOP. If he does the standard half-time, he will be out in 12.5 years. Completely unacceptable. Why do judges keep giving these pedophiles a sentencing break?
