RACINE — A 43-year-old Racine woman is facing four charges related to failing to protect a child from harm as a co-defendant in a criminal case against her husband.
Dana Kozeluh was charged with failure to protect a child; exposing a child to harmful material as a party to a crime; felony intent to contribute to the delinquency of a child as a party to a crime; and causing mental harm to a child.
Kozeluh appeared in Racine County Circuit Court virtually on Monday, during which Racine County Court Commissioner Alice Rudebusch set her bond at $25,000, according to online court records.
She is scheduled to appear for a preliminary hearing June 18.
According to a criminal complaint, Kozeluh is a co-defendant in the case against her husband, Paul Shelton, who was charged with multiple counts related to allegedly sexually assaulting a child.
The complaint alleges Kozeluh did not interfere to stop Shelton, who is 43, during multiple occasions where he allegedly sexually assaulted a child between 2017-22.
Additionally, the complaint alleges Kozeluh and Shelton provided the child with drugs on multiple occasions.
Shelton also faces charges related to noncompliance with sex offender requirements, according to earlier reporting from The Journal Times.
Shelton is scheduled to appear for a status conference June 19.
