No charges were handed out for the owner of a rental property that burned down, killing six people.
The incident took place on June 30th at roughly 2:30 a.m. in Necedah.
Juneau County Sheriff’s Deputies and fire rescue teams arrived to see the house fully engulfed in flames with witnesses standing outside.
Some of the individuals they encountered had escaped the home and revealed there were six people still inside.
The six individuals who did not make it out were all family members, including Steve and Lydia Witte, Stella and Charis Kuehl, and Merci and Lena Henslin.
A lengthy and thorough investigation into the fire was conducted, and all findings and reports were sent to the Juneau County District Attorney’s Office for review.
After the review, the DA’s office concluded that no criminal charges would be pursued against the property owner.
