The facts here are straightforward.
A 17-year-old Milwaukee boy has been charged in the shooting death of 12-year old Ronnel Smith in West Allis last month.
Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office filed charges Friday against Lawrence Griffin in the Feb. 25 incident at the Bug N Out Lounge, where two children were shot. Griffin was arrested by West Allis and Milwaukee police last week.......In addition to first-degree intentional homicide, Griffin was charged with first-degree recklessly endangering safety and possession of a firearm by a felon. Earlier this year, Griffin was convicted of three counts of battery by prisoner and one count of assault. He was sentenced to five years of probation.
If convicted of first-degree intentional homicide, Griffin could be sentenced to life in prison.
Let's correct this.
Griffin could be sentenced to life in prison unless the judge is Janet Protasiewicz; then he'll get time served plus a year of probation.
