   A former Carthage student who admitted to forcibly raping another student In   
   August of 2023, will spend the next couple of years in prison. Cortez L.   
   Newman plead guilty to Third Degree Sexual Assault. He was originally charged   
   with Second Degree Sexual    
   Assault, but Newman took responsibility for the crime, admitted his actions,   
   and took a plea.   
      
   The victim spoke today in court and fought back tears, saying, in part,   
   “What happened to me didn’t just take away from my freshman year. It took   
   away my trust of people, my sense of security, and sometimes my hope for the   
   future. What I need the    
   court to understand is that this crime didn’t just impact one moment of my   
   life.”.

   Kenosha County Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Tanck-Adams spoke of the   
   permanent physical and mental damage to the victim. As part of the plea deal,   
   Tanck-Adams didn’t recommend any specific length of a prison sentance.   
      
   “This past year has taught me to just always treat women with respect as a   
   whole, and to just always make sure I’m on the same page as a sexual   
   partner,” said Newman. “And I want to honor whatever judgment you hand   
   down to me today, but if you do    
   grant me the opportunity of probation, I promise you this will be the first   
   and last time you ever see my face in this courtroom again,” added Newman.   
      
   Governor Ever’s Department of Corrections agent who wrote the Presentence   
   Investigation (PSI) recommended probation. It was later learned, that that   
   agent’s supervisor thought it was too lenient and recommended just over a   
   year in prison.   
      
   “The court is not going to follow the recommendation [from the Department of   
   Corrections],” said Judge Dougvillo. “I think that would unduly depreciate   
   the seriousness of what has happened here and the long-lasting impact that is   
   inevitably being    
   suffered and will continue to be suffered here by the victim as well as her   
   family. So the court is going to make a prison sentence here,” he added.   
      
   Judge Dougvillo then ordered Newman to spend three years in prison, four years   
   of parole, and to register as a sex offender for 15 years. He also ordered   
   $1,232.72 in restitution for relocation costs and medical bills.
