todayMay 7, 2019

A long prison sentence has been handed down for a Mayville man convicted of child sex assault.  Dodge County Circuit  Judge Brian A. Pfitzinger sentenced 31 year old Benjamin Marx  to 45 years in prison on charges of  First Degree Sexual Assault of a Child and Sexual Exploitation of a Child.  Marx will also serve an additional 35 years of extended supervision.   Marx sexually assaulted a three-year-old child and video-recorded his crime so that he could view it after the fact.   Assistant District Attorney Yolanda J. Tienstra stated, “No amount of incarceration is  ‘enough’ for committing such a devastating crime, but this sentence will keep the defendant from harming another child for what may be the rest of his life.”
