Chicago man convicted for assault on drunken woman A 27-year-old Chicago man will serve nine months in jail for sexually assaulting a young woman at a party in Shakopee. Albert Travis Winfield was convicted in Scott County District Court on Feb. 1 of aiding fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct, in which the victim — who was drunk — was helpless. A second fifth-degree charge was dropped in exchange for his guilty plea. Winfield received a stay of sentence imposition and was placed on 10 years of probation by Scott County District Court Judge Caroline Lennon. If Winfield successfully completes probation, the felony-level charge will be reduced to a misdemeanor. He faced a maximum possible penalty of 10 years in prison and a $20,000 fine. The sexual assault occurred
in November 2008 at a party on the 700 block of Cobblestone Way in Shakopee, according to a criminal complaint. T h e 1 8 - ye a r- o l d WINFIELD victim reported she had consumed a large amount of alcohol and was intoxicated. She doesn’t remember going to sleep in the upstairs of the residence. When she awoke, she discovered her belt and zipper were undone. A sexual assault examination detected sperm matching a DNA profile for Winfield from the Illinois convicted offender database. A friend of the victim told police the woman was very
intoxicated and, early in the morning, he observed males with her in a bedroom. The woman’s pants had been removed and a male was saying “wake up, wake up, you know what we want to do.” This friend said he “freaked out,” screamed and kicked the males out of the room. He then put the woman’s pants back on and covered her with a sheet. Another person at the party told police he observed Winfield in the bedroom with the woman and other males. The ter ms of Winfield’s probation include to register as a predatory offender, remain law-abiding, no use drugs or alcohol, no access or use of the Internet without approval, no possession of pornographic or sexually explicit material and to submit to polygraph examinations as directed. — Shannon Fiecke

Chicago man convicted for assault on drunken woman A 27-year-old Chicago man will serve nine months in jail for sexually assaulting a young woman at a party in Shakopee. Albert Travis Winfield was convicted in Scott County District Court on Feb. 1 of aiding fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct, in which the victim — who was drunk — was helpless. A second fifth-degree charge was dropped in exchange for his guilty plea. Winfield received a stay of sentence imposition and was placed on 10 years of probation by Scott County District Court Judge Caroline Lennon. If Winfield successfully completes probation, the felony-level charge will be reduced to a misdemeanor. He faced a maximum possible penalty of 10 years in prison and a $20,000 fine. The sexual assault occurred
in November 2008 at a party on the 700 block of Cobblestone Way in Shakopee, according to a criminal complaint. T h e 1 8 - ye a r- o l d WINFIELD victim reported she had consumed a large amount of alcohol and was intoxicated. She doesn’t remember going to sleep in the upstairs of the residence. When she awoke, she discovered her belt and zipper were undone. A sexual assault examination detected sperm matching a DNA profile for Winfield from the Illinois convicted offender database. A friend of the victim told police the woman was very
intoxicated and, early in the morning, he observed males with her in a bedroom. The woman’s pants had been removed and a male was saying “wake up, wake up, you know what we want to do.” This friend said he “freaked out,” screamed and kicked the males out of the room. He then put the woman’s pants back on and covered her with a sheet. Another person at the party told police he observed Winfield in the bedroom with the woman and other males. The ter ms of Winfield’s probation include to register as a predatory offender, remain law-abiding, no use drugs or alcohol, no access or use of the Internet without approval, no possession of pornographic or sexually explicit material and to submit to polygraph examinations as directed. — Shannon Fiecke
