19 May 2020 News
The state’s petition to have Gerald Turner declared a sexually violent person will go before a Fond du Lac County judge in October. A two-day motion hearing will be held starting October 29th for the 71-year-old who is currently being held at the Sand Ridge Secure Treatment Center in Mauston. Turner was convicted of the Halloween 1973 rape and murder of 9-year-old Lisa Ann French. She was trick-or-treating that night in Turner’s neighborhood. Turner had been released from prison, but was sent back on a parole violation. The state’s Justice Department filed a petition in January of 2018 to have Turner declared a sexually violent person and have him committed to a state facility for the rest of his life.
