Coldwater Man Arraigned On Additional CSC Charges
Thursday, March 19, 2020

A Coldwater man facing trial on a charge of criminal sexual conduct has been arraigned for additional sex crimes.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessell says 28 year old Brad Allen Risner
was arraigned on two counts of first degree criminal sexual during the commission of a felony. The charges stem from incidents that reportedly happened in Calhoun County during the summer and fall of 2007.

At the time of the reported incident, Risner was a juvenile on probation after pleading guilty to a 2006 third degree criminal sexual conduct charge in Calhoun County.

Risner is being charged under the automatic waiver provision of the court rules, which allow charges to be sworn in the adult court for the specified juvenile violation of first degree criminal sexual conduct. That is due to Risner being 15 at the time of the offense.

Risner is being held in the Calhoun County Jail on a $200,000 bond.
Nessel says that Risner is scheduled for trial on third degree criminal sexual conduct charges in Kalamazoo County. Those charges are from a sexual assault evidence kit that was collected in 2013, but never tested until 2016.
