A criminologist said the case of the shooting of Wauwatosa police officer Jennifer Sebena is not cut-and-dried.
WAUWATOSA, WI—To the legal layperson, the case of the murder of Wauwatosa Police Officer Jennifer Sebena may appear to be open and shut.

Case of the killing of Wauwatosa Police Officer Jennifer Sebena will go to trial.
Benjamin Sebena pleaded not guilty Thursday morning to the Christmas Eve murder of his wife, Wauwatosa Police Officer Jennifer Sebena. At his arraignment before Judge David Borowski, Benjamin Sebena again appeared strapped in a wheelchair and wearing a security vest, as he has in every appearance since his arrest and charging. He did not speak; his attorney, Michael Steinle, entered the plea on his behalf. In the very brief proceeding, Steinle made no mention at this stage of a possible defense of not guilty by reason of insanity or mental defect. The not guilty plea means the case will go to trial, with further proceedings to set a trial date scheduled for March 1. The charge against Benjamin Sebena, first-degree intentional homicide by …

A Waukesha who supplied heroin that later killed a Wauwatosa teenager has pleaded guilty for his role in her death.
