A 22-year-old man who plowed his pickup truck into a troop of Girl Scouts picking up trash on the side of a Wisconsin road, killing 3 girls and 1 woman, has been sentenced to 54 years in prison.
In November 2018, Treu was driving a black Ford F-150 pickup truck north on a highway in Lake Hallie when it crossed over a lane and into a ditch where the troop was volunteering.
Police said the group of 12 was wearing highly visible safety vests and was not on the shoulder of the road.Judge James Isaacson, who handed down the sentence, told Treu it was"hard to label" what he did. In closing arguments, Treu's defense attorney, Carly Sebion, asked that the court"remember that Colten Treu isn't the sum of just those bad mistakes on that one day."
Newell said after sentencing that he would have preferred a longer sentence for Treu,"but I think justice was served though and that he was held accountable for what he did on November 3, 2018."
