Milwaukee reckless driving crash; Travonie Williams sentenced

Travonie Williams

A Milwaukee County judge sentenced Travonie Williams to 694 days in prison plus an additional three years of extended supervision in connection with a reckless driving crash that left two people hurt in March 2022. Williams had already served 694 days – so just the extended supervision remains, online court records show.

Williams pleaded guilty in December 2024 to a charge of hit-and-run involving great bodily harm. A charge of knowingly operating while revoked was dismissed and read into the court record.
