2/4/22 Former Church Camp Counselor Charged With Child Sexual Assault In Waushara County
4 February 2022 News
State Attorney General Josh Kaul and Waushara County District Attorney Matthew Leusink Thursday announced that 32-year-old Remington Jon Nystrom has been charged with one count of first-degree child sexual assault with a child under the age of 13. The charge stems from an incident in 2009 that was reported to the Attorney General’s Clergy and Faith Leader initiative. Nystrom was a camp counselor at a Mount Morris camp in Waushara County at the time. The Wisconsin Rapids man is alleged to have touched the 10-year-old victim’s genitals, waking the victim from sleep. Nystom was added to the state’s sex offender registry in 2019 after pleading no contest to fourth- degree sexual assault of a child and causing mental harm to a child in a separate Waushara County case. This is believed to be the first case charged through the DOJ tip line initiative. Survivors of clergy or faith leader abuse, their friends and family are encouraged to report that information to the DOJ either online or by calling 1-877-222-2620.
