The teen accused of breaking into a mobile home and trying to stab a 15-year-old girl pleaded no contest Wednesday in La Crosse County Court. 18-year-old Austin Bailey is charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide and armed burglary with the use of a dangerous weapon. According to the criminal complaint, Bailey in Sept. 2022 broke into an Onalaska mobile home and tried to strangle a 15-year-old girl. When the girl woke up and fought back, Bailey began stabbing her with a knife. Bailey eventually fled before police found and arrested him. Per the agreement, Bailey pleaded no contest to the homicide charge, and the burglary charge was dismissed but read in. Judge Ramona Gonzalez found a factual basis to accept the plea and find Bailey guilty of attempted homicide. Gonzalez also said a pre-sentence investigation must be completed before a sentencing date is set. ​
