Milwaukee man guilty of killing dad in 2023, jury finds
A 19-year-old Milwaukee man was found guilty at trial Wednesday of fatally shooting his own dad last October. He was convicted of intentional homicide.
Case details
According to a criminal complaint, police responded to a residence near 91st and Silver Spring in May 2023. An investigation revealed the boy used his grandmother's credit card to order food.
When the grandmother found out, prosecutors said she told the boy's teenage sister, who then repeatedly hit the boy with a metal purse strap. The court documents said Althedria Robinson arrived a short time later and repeatedly hit the boy with a belt. After that, the sister "whooped him again."

Kenneth Robinson went into the boy's room the next morning, the complaint states, and "punched him numerous times in the arms and legs."
Prosecutors said Child Abuse Pediatricians at the Child Advocacy Center looked at the boy and found he had bruises on his arms, legs, back, butt, chest and forehead – as well as several with abrasions.
