Wis. Student Faces Dozens of Child Assault Charges

A Wisconsin college student is accused of molesting six young children and videotaping the assaults under such titles as "Monster Unleashed," and police said Friday they think there are more victims.

Alexander R. Richter, who attended Gateway Technical College, was jailed on 49 felony charges after authorities say he volunteered to baby-sit his classmates' children and then repeatedly had sex with the boys and girls on camera as they cried and begged him to stop. Police said they have identified six children in videos and photographs recovered from Richter's home in Racine, about 30 miles south of Milwaukee.

Investigators are asking other victims or their families to come forward with information.

"We're not putting a number on it, but from the evidence we've recovered we believe there are additional victims," Racine police Sgt. Marty Pavilonis said.

And with video evidence, conviction should be a slam dunk. That is all.
