Matthew Hermreck also pleaded not guilty today ( Monday ) in Brown County District Court to charges of aggravated endangerment of a child and aggravated burglary.
A jury trial was set for November 13th, and is expected to take 3-4 days.
Hermreck had previously appeared for arraignment August 13th, but requested a continuance in order to consider a plea agreement offered by the prosecution.

The victim’s three-year-old daughter also suffered injuries in the attack and was treated at the Horton Community Hospital.
