Description

1 Ronald Wille appeals a judgment convicting him of causing death by procuring alcohol for a minor, a violation of WIS. STAT.Â§ 125.075(1) (2003-04). He contends the evidence at trial was insufficient to convict him of violating the cited statute. Wille also claims the circuit court erred in the following ways: (1) by improperly instructing jurors regarding the required causal link between his actions and the ensuing death; (2) by admitting evidence of the victims blood alcohol content and the results of drug testing; and (3) by permitting testimony from an investigator who the State had not named as a potential witness prior to trial. We conclude that (1) to show a violation of Â§ 125.075(1), the State needed to establish only that Wille knew or should have known that the alcohol beverages he procured for a party would be consumed by persons under the age of twenty-one, and (2) the evidence at trial was sufficient to establish such knowledge. We also reject Willes other claims of error and, accordingly, we affirm the judgment of conviction.
