This year, #ChrystulKizer agreed to plead guilty to a reduced charge of #SecondDegree #RecklessHomicide w/a dangerous #weapon, which carried a max of 30 yrs.
Advocates said Kizer’s case marked the 1st time a #Wisconsin court had allowed a defendant who was a #SexTrafficking victim to use an “#AffirmativeDefense” for a #homicide charge.#law #SelfDefense #abuse #SexualAbuse #SexualAssault #Rape #BelieveSurvivors

A judge on Mon sentenced #ChrystulKizer, a Milwaukee woman, charged w/killing the man who #abused & #SexTrafficked her as a teenager to 11 yrs in prison +5 yrs of extended supervision. The decision ends a 6-yr legal saga that tested the limits of the court’s leniency toward #survivors of #SexualAbuse who commit resulting #crimes.
