WAUPACA COUNTY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – An Appleton man has been charged with repeatedly sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl at a campground — and sheriff’s officials are asking any other potential victims to come forward.
The Waupaca County Sheriff’s Office says the girl reported the assaults on July 7. She said 63-year-old Richard A. Klimek had assaulted her several times at Farmer Genes Campground. Klimek was a season camper at the campground on Kinney Lake Road in the town of Dupont.
Klimek was interviewed and arrested last Wednesday. He appeared in court on Thursday, where a $25,000 cash bond was set. Formal charges were filed on Monday.
Anyone else who may have been assaulted by Klimek is asked to call the sheriff’s office at 1-715-258-4466.
