WAUSAU, WI (WSAU) — A Marshfield man could spend up to 40 years in prison for allegedly trying to lure a teen into having sex.
Corey Scheunemann, 37, is facing a felony charge of trying to use a computer to facilitate a sex crime. He’s accused of trying to arrange a sexual encounter with a teen girl he met online. An investigation was launched into Scheunemann in July when he allegedly began communicating with a person he thought was a 15-year-old girl on Facebook Messenger. The teen was instead an undercover officer.
Scheunemann continued the conversation with the teen and made a plan to meet up for sex. He was later arrested by police as he was driving from Marshfield to meet the teen. Scheunemann did not appear in court Tuesday afternoon and a warrant has been issued for his arrest.
