“court may impose as many sentences as there are convictions and may provide that any such sentence be concurrent with or consecutive to any other sentence”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““Where a defendant has committed three serious crimes — in this case, sexual intercourse with a child in violation of sec. 944.10(1) and (2), Stats. — is placed on parole, and subsequently commits another serious crime, there is no good reason why, in the exercise of proper judicial discretion, a sentence consecutive to the period to be served for the earlier crimes should not be imposed. The statutes, however, make such action by the sentencing judge impossible.””
