MILWAUKEE — On Friday, jurors found Maxwell Anderson guilty of first-degree intentional homicide, mutilating a corpse, hiding a corpse and arson in the 2024 death of 19-year-old Sade Robinson.
The verdict came on Day 9 of the trial, after the jury continued deliberations on Friday, which lasted just over 20 minutes before they returned to court, where the verdict was read.
After the verdict was read, the judge ordered a pre-sentence investigation and set a sentencing date for Aug. 15 at 10 a.m. The court adjourned just after 9:20 a.m.
Robinson’s family could be seen exiting the courtroom and embracing each other in the hallway after hearing the guilty verdict.
On Thursday, both the prosecution and defense rested their cases. The defense rested its case without calling any witnesses to
