Oswald Scott Wilder

A man accused of sexually assaulting four female MSU students waived his scheduled arraignment in Ingham County Circuit Court Tuesday.

Vernon, Mich. resident Oswald Scott Wilder Jr., 26, recently was charged with one count of first degree criminal sexual conduct, two counts of second degree criminal sexual conduct, one count of third degree criminal sexual conduct, two counts of assault with intention to commit sexual penetration, one count of gross indecency and three counts of unlawful imprisonment.

Documents obtained by The State News indicate Wilder confessed to the crimes and blamed his actions on addictions to cocaine and sexual fantasy abuse videos.

Wilder is set to appear in court for a pretrial hearing before Judge Rosemarie Aquilina at 2 p.m. Oct. 21.
