Prosecutors initially charged Kimble in 2019, but the case was dismissed and Kimble was released in 2020 after a key witness failed to appear in court for his trial. Charges against Kimble were re-filed in 2023.
Kimble was convicted of a gun possession felony during that time, given a stayed sentence and put on two years of probation.
The backstory:
Cherron Miller, a 31-year-old mother of four, was killed in September 2019. The fatal shooting happened inside an apartment near 53rd and Locust.
The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office ruled Miller's death was a homicide. According to a criminal complaint, Kimble's mother witnessed her son shoot Miller during an argument before he ran.
