Mother stabbed, Milwaukee man gets 30 years in prison
MILWAUKEE - A Milwaukee County judge sentenced Fredrick Ramsey on Oct. 7 to 30 years in prison and another 12 years of extended supervision in the fatal stabbing of the mother of his kids in 2016.
A jury found Fredrick Ramsey guilty of first-degree reckless homicide for the death of Alexandria Taylor.
According to the criminal complaint, Ramsey and Taylor had been in a relationship for 11 years and had two kids together.
On June 11, 2016, the complaint states Ramsey and Taylor got into an argument behind a gas station in the area of Atkinson and Keefe. There was a struggle "over a purse," and police were called to separate the two. Later, Ramsey went looking for Taylor.
The complaint states Ramsey found Taylor sitting on some porch steps near 5th and Vienna, parked his vehicle and approached her. That is when Taylor "tried to enter the residence she was at, but he grabbed her by the arm and spun her around." Ramsey stabbed Taylor in the chest after she allegedly slapped him in the face.
