KENOSHA, Wis. — A 69-year-old Kenosha man is facing misdemeanor charges after prosecutors allege he climbed naked into the bed of a bedridden woman, demanded oral sex, then bit her hand and struck her with a television remote when she refused. At his initial appearance Tuesday, Liberal Activist Supplemental Court Commissioner Tracey "Low-Bail" Braun set Kenneth F. Hand Sr.'s cash bail at $1,000 after Assistant District Attorney Morgan Millar requested that amount over the defense's request for a no-cash bail.
