GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A man will spend two decades behind bars for his role in a deadly shooting in Green Bay in 2022.
Jesse Dahl, 25, was sentenced Monday to 20 years in prison and 10 years of extended supervision. He will not qualify for the early release program.
Dahl was previously charged with first-degree intentional homicide, being party to first-degree reckless homicide and possession of a firearm as a convicted felon. In April, he agreed to plead guilty to the reckless homicide charge. As part of the plea deal, the other two charges against him were dismissed, but could be considered at sentencing.
The shooting happened around midnight on Dec. 20, 2022. A 42-year-old man, identified in the criminal complaint by his initials, R.H., was killed. Another man was shot but survived.
According to investigators, the surviving victim said he and R.H. were walking in the alley behind the 1300 block of Smith Street when they met Dahl and another man. The witness told police he thought R.H. and Dahl knew each other.
The meeting escalated into a confrontation — it’s unclear exactly why — and shots were fired. The witness said R.H. returned fire and hit Dahl. R.H. was taken to the hospital, where he died.
Dahl was dropped off at the hospital in an allegedly stolen vehicle. He was uncooperative, police said. The complaint does not include a statement from him.
When the surviving victim arrived at the hospital, he had a bag containing a gun, meth, cocaine and fentanyl. He said the bag belonged to R.H. The gun was matched to some shell casings found at the scene. Drug charges were filed against the surviving victim, but he has not been charged with any crimes related to the shooting.
