Hollis Dukes appeals a judgment, entered upon a jury’s verdict, convicting him of second-degree sexual assault by sexual contact with an unconscious person, contrary to WIS. STAT. § 940.225(2)(d) (2019-20). Dukes argues that the circuit court erroneously exercised its discretion by admitting other acts evidence. We reject Dukes’ arguments and affirm the judgment.
