GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – James Vandenack will spend a day in prison for each day Tyler Waldron lived.
22 year old Vandenack, was sentenced Friday to 21 years and 295 days in prison in connection with the November death of his friend.
Prosecutors said the two were horsing around with a gun in a De Pere condominium after a night of drinking. Another woman said the two men were laughing and joking face-to-face when Vandenack put the gun to Waldron’s head and pulled the trigger.
Vandenack told police he was joking around and that he didn’t think there was a bullet in the chamber.
In court Friday, Vandenack apologized to Waldron’s family.
