Pilot Grove man accused of sodomy, sexual abuse in Cooper County

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A Pilot Grove man was charged with multiple felonies after authorities claim he got a victim younger than 21 years old drunk and sexually assaulted them.

Kale Weber, 26, was charged in Cooper County with two counts of first-degree sodomy, one count of first-degree sexual abuse and misdemeanor giving alcohol to a minor. He is being held at the Cooper County Jail without bond and a court date has not been scheduled.

The probable cause statement says the victim called authorities from a Casey’s location on Sunday after they ran from Weber’s home. The victim claimed they were raped by Weber while the victim was drunk and eventually “blacked out,” the statement says. A sexual assault forensic examination report was taken at University Hospital.

A Cooper County deputy spoke with Weber, who allegedly admitted to parts of the assault, but not all of it, claiming he would “never cheat” on his wife, the statement says.
