MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - A Green Bay man will go to prison for two and a half years for a stabbing during the 2011 Mifflin Street Block Party in Madison.

Twenty-three year old Colin Rosenow apologized to his victim in Dane County Court Friday.

Rosenow wept as he told Matthew Warnert he didn’t expect to be forgiven just because he said he was sorry.

The Wisconsin Department of Corrections had recommendation probation for Rosenow, but the judge said he wasn’t sure he could live in a community when one person stabs another five times and isn’t punished properly.

Rosenow was originally charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide.
