Altoona Man's Killing: One Suspect Sentenced with Time Served

In Eau Claire County, Wisconsin, one of the four people accused of a drive-by shooting that led to the death of Christopher Conner, a 39-year-old Altoona man, has been sentenced. Jamon Sullivan, 29, also from Altoona, received a sentence of 447 days in prison, followed by two years of extended supervision. Sullivan had already served 447 days of his sentence, which was credited to him.

Sullivan was found guilty after entering a no contest plea to a charge of second-degree recklessly endangering safety as part of a crime. The other charges against him were dismissed but considered in the sentencing. The incident occurred on September 17, 2022, when Conner was discovered with a gunshot wound near the intersection of Bergen Avenue and Bellevue Avenue at 12:12 a. m. The Eau Claire Police Department thoroughly investigated the case, leading to the arrest of four suspects: Michael Purnell, Xavier Thompson, Kemone Golden, and Jamon Sullivan. This case has been closely followed in the community, highlighting concerns about public safety and the legal process.
