Steffes Seeks Writ To Overturn Duncan Sentence
Milwaukee attorney Herbert J. Steffes argues before the Wisconsin Supreme Court that Circuit Judge Gullick N. Risjord erred by sentencing Thomas M. Duncan to one to two years for manslaughter, calling it a flat failure to perform mandatory duties. The defense seeks a writ of mandamus to impose a five to ten year term for first degree manslaughter, while opponents warn of double jeopardy if resentencing occurs. A ruling is expected soon as justices weigh jurisdiction and proper sentencing.
