Gerald Lipski sentenced to three years in prison

MILWAUKEE -- A Milwaukee County judge sentenced Gerald Lipski on Friday to three years in prison and another three years of extended supervision.

Lipski pleaded guilty in May for trying to hire a hit man to kill his ex-girlfriend’s grandson. The hit man was actually a detective. The go-between was an inmate informant.

Lipski faced charges of solicitation of first degree intentional homicide and domestic abuse.

The judge gave Lipski credit for 271 days already served behind bars.
