JANESVILLE, Wis., 03 Nov 2009: A Rock County sheriff’s deputy was arrested on Monday afternoon in connection with a sexual assault in Milton this weekend.
Steven Stenulson, of Janesville, was taken into custody by officers from the Milton Police Department. Investigators have linked the 38-year-old off-duty deputy to an alleged sexual assault of an 18-year-old woman at a Milton home after a Halloween party on Saturday night.
Rock County Chief Deputy Barb Tillman said Milton police received a report at 2:46 a.m. Sunday of the sexual assault at a party where underage drinkers were present.
Stenulson is on administrative leave from the Rock County Sheriff’s Department. Because of his job, he’s being held in the Dane County Jail, authorities said.
Tillman said in a news release that there will also be an internal investigation, and the sheriff’s office will take all steps necessary to make sure that “justice is served.”
