A Milwaukee man was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty to a 2021 fatal shooting in September.

Another man, 25-year-old Santos Solier, was convicted by a jury of first-degree intentional homicide in February. In April, he, too, was sentenced to life in prison, though after 40 years he could become eligible for extended supervision.
