APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – A man convicted of killing his grandparents was sentenced to prison Friday.
Alexander Kraus, 20, received two life sentences. He will be eligible for parole after 40 years.
Last year, he was found guilty of two counts of first-degree intentional homicide for shooting Dennis and Letha Kraus on April 14, 2019, at their Grand Chute home.
A jury determined while Kraus suffered from a mental disease or defect, he could have still had the capacity to appreciate his actions were wrong and could have conformed to the law.
According to the criminal complaint, Kraus admitted to shooting his grandparents but a motive was not disclosed.
