Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Jesus M. Medina Fernandez
Case No.: 2020AP351-CR; 2020AP352-CR; 2020AP353-CR
Officials: Brash, C.J., Dugan and White, JJ.
Focus: Sufficiency of Evidence
Jesus M. Medina Fernandez appeals judgments of conviction entered after a jury found him guilty of three counts of first-degree sexual assault by use of a dangerous weapon and two counts of second-degree sexual assault. Medina claims that the counts were wrongly joined for trial and that the evidence as to one of the counts was insufficient because the State failed to corroborate his confession. We reject his claims and affirm.
