Convicted murderer Maxwell Anderson receives a lifetime imprisonment in the slaying of Sade Robinson.
In a heart-wrenching sentencing hearing held in Milwaukee on August 1, 2025, Maxwell Anderson, 34, was convicted of first-degree intentional homicide, mutilation of a corpse, and arson for the murder and dismemberment of Sade Robinson in April 2024. The court sentenced him to life in prison without the possibility of extended supervision.
During the hearing, Carlos Robinson, Sade's father, expressed his grief, stating, "To lose your child in this manner, is unthinkable." The sentencing hearing also included statements from multiple members of Robinson's family.
Anderson, who spoke on his own behalf during the hearing, maintained his innocence. However, he did express hope for "true justice" to be delivered. It's worth noting that Anderson dismembered Robinson's body and scattered the remains, and he also set Robinson's car on fire.
The jury verdict was delivered on June 6, 2025, and the sentencing took place two months later. As of August 2025, there are no publicly available details or timeline about Maxwell Anderson’s appeal. The sources focus on the trial, sentencing, and impact statements but do not report any appeal filings, proceedings, or expected dates.
A restitution hearing has been scheduled for Sept. 4. In a touching gesture, Robinson's family has requested that people in Milwaukee wear pink in her honor.
