Brantner Drug Conviction Will Be Reviewed By State Supreme Court

23 May 2019 News


The WIsconsin Supreme Court will be reviewing the drug conviction involving the 65-year-old Kenosha man convicted of murdering Berit Beck in Fond du Lac County in the summer of 1990. Dennis Brantner was searched at the County Jail when he was booked and drugs were found in his boot. In July of 2016 he was sentenced to six years and seven months on drug possession and felony bail jumping charges. This past January a Wisconsin appeals court upheld his conviction, but his defense successfully appealed to the Supreme Court asking for a review. In March of 2018 Brantner was sentenced to ten years in prison for the 2nd degree reckless homicide of the 18-year-old Sturtevant woman. That sentence was in addition to any prison term he was already serving at the time.
