SHIRLEY S. ABRAHAMSON, C.J.
¶ 39. (concurring) . The majority opinion purports to reach its result by relying on the "plain terms" of Wis. Stat. § 939.22. Majority op., ¶ 37. I agree with the dissent that the majority opinion does not rely on the statutory text to answer the question posed in the present case.
*463¶ 40. In examining not only the text of Wis. Stat. § 939.22 but also the legislative history and the consequences of various interpretations, the majority opinion and I conclude that the most reasonable interpretation of the statute is that it covers the fact situation presented. I therefore concur in the court's mandate.
