GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – A Green Bay man is facing multiple charges after being accused of raping his ex-fiancé’s friend last fall.
32-year-old Dale N. Micolichek is facing four counts, including second-degree sexual assault/use of force and intimidation of a victim/use or attempt of force.
According to the criminal complaint, Green Bay police were called to an apartment in the 400 block of Fourth Street on October 11, 2015, for a report of a possible sexual assault and disturbance.
Officers arrived and spoke with two women, one of whom was the victim. Both identified the man who forced the victim to have sex as Micolichek.
The victim says that the night before, Micolichek’s fiancé left the apartment to go with some friends to get food. Dale was with the victim and 3 other people at the home.
She told police that the other 3 were sleeping in the living room, while Dale was playing video games in his room. Because she viewed Micolichek like a friend and brother figure, she went to talk with him, adding she’s known Dale since 2012 when she moved to Green Bay.
Micolichek, per the complaint, told her he wanted to have sex with her and she replied, “No.” Dale believed that no one would find out and that if anyone comes home, he would be able to hear them coming in.
The victim started to scream in order for one of the other people in the home to hear, but there was music playing so she couldn’t be heard. She tried fighting Micolichek, but he, “Pulled her ponytail, forcing her backwards off the bed and striking her head on the bed frame.” Micolichek began sexually assaulting her, using his hands, biting her and eventually intercourse.
“No, please stop. It hurts,” the victim cried.
Micolichek left the bedroom after he was done, and she went out to the living room after putting her clothes back on and smoked a cigarette. Dale then threatened to kill her if she said anything to anyone.
When the fiancé returned, the victim didn’t tell her and she didn’t want to go home to her boyfriend because she felt dirty and ashamed. She spent the night at her friend’s house.
The next morning, Micolichek was on his way to work on a farm and had an ax and machete in holsters on the side of his pants. He, “Made it a point to pull up his shirt and show the weapons.” The victim began to cry and eventually when the fiancé’s mom and stepdad arrived, she explained what happened. The parents told Micolichek to leave.
Dale Micolichek is due back in court Wednesday for his adjourned initial appearance. If convicted on all counts, Micolichek faces more than 55 years in prison.
