Get a local attorney to investigate all the facts and circumstances and form an opinion as to what the punishment might be after learning what needs to be known. The actual punishment depends upon many, many factors, which include a lot more than you have written here.
Because Wisconsin Laws state this would be statutory rape (age of consent is 18) While the age of consent in Minnesota is 16. Do the laws apply to where they live or where they are?

Where they are, but that brings up some more issues, whether the purpose of the travel with a minor can be prosecuted. Here is one of the results from a simple internet search: Regardless of the age of the perpetrator, it is always statutory rape in Minnesota if the victim is under the age of 13.... View More

No facts? In addition, it appears that you are asking if something can happen which has already happened. Yes, it has already happened. It is the wrong question. The right question is about what can be done, and the answer to that depends upon the facts and circumstances, none of which you gave.

You did not give the facts, just a question, probably about something that has already happened. The after the fact questions must be accompanied by sufficient... View More

The question was cut off and otherwise is nearly impossible to answer and there really is not enough facts here or even a question.
The ticket was given in a state park. I was told this was a formality, but as the court date approaches I'm concerned that there could be more consequences than just the ticket.
