Another man, 33-year-old Dominque Jordan, was sentenced to probation in April after he pleaded guilty to first-degree recklessly endangering safety and a gun felony.
Prosecutors said Davis and Jordan left two other men for dead in a vacant home. A 19-year-old was shot in the head, but was able to tell police what happened. He just could not say where it happened, prompting a city-wide search.

Case details
In November 2022, members of the Milwaukee Police Department's Special Investigations Division searched vacant houses when they came to one in the Walnut Hill neighborhood – just east of Washington Park.
Inside that home, court filings said police found the body of 30-year-old Terrell Johnson, who had been seen alive was near Teutonia and Atkinson on Nov. 11. He had been shot.
Court documents said the 19-year-old victim told investigators he and Johnson were brought to a boarded-up home on 37th and Walnut – and that Jordan and Davis walked the two men through the house and to a back stairwell leading to the basement. The 19-year-old said either Davis or Jordan asked if they had any other final words before there were gunshots.
