WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Keithany Martease Brodie
Case No.: 2016AP1949-CR
Officials: Brennan, P.J., Brash and Dugan, JJ.
Focus: Sentencing Guidelines
Keithany Martease Brodie appeals judgments convicting him of first-degree intentional homicide by use of a dangerous weapon, armed robbery, and felon in possession of a firearm. Brodie argues that the circuit court misused its sentencing discretion because it failed to explain why it made him eligible for parole after fifty-six years of imprisonment and why it deviated from the recommendations of the parties as to his parole eligibility. Brodie also argues that the circuit court misused its discretion by failing to adequately explain why he was ordered to serve a consecutive sentence on one charge. We affirm.
