FOND DU LAC COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) – The Town of El Dorado is back in the news, dealing with the unpopular placement of a sex offender.
It was year ago when the Fond Du Lac County community was in an uproar after a Milwaukee County judge ordered the placement of convicted sex offender Clint Rhymes at a residence on Nitschke Road.
Now, County Sheriff Mick Fink says it looks like a replay, in the same house, over the placement of 61 year old Terry Olson.
Fink says no one is getting a straight answer.
“They’re asking questions, then getting ambiguous answers. He makes a decision…. a local sheriff like me goes up in arms and a Township goes up in arms saying wait a minute, we’re being bushwhacked again”
Fink says those looking to place Olson told the judge a misleading story.
“When the judge asked if the sheriff was notified they said yes he was, and then changed the subject. When the judge asked if the township was notified they say they can read CCAP”
The sheriff says Olson sexually assaulted more than 30 young children and believes he still has that desire.
“The concern is with over 30 victims and him verbalizing that he still gets aroused around children concerns me. And I think that’s what sheriff’s are supposed to get concerned about”
There’s not much time to stop the process though.
Olson is supposed to be placed in the residence on Thursday, the same day a Washington County judge is set to consider a motion for reconsideration on the placement.
