MARINETTE, WI-- A Wisconsin man charged in a two-vehicle Marinette County accident that killed an Ishpeming boy has entered a plea.
Timothy Christ, 28, of Wausaukee is accused of pulling out of a bar without his lights on last October and striking a car in the opposite lane. Thirteen-year-old Christopher Croley was killed in the crash. His mother and sister were injured.
Christ pleaded no contest Wednesday to eight charges, including homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle and operating while intoxicated, causing injury—second offense. He faces up to 34 years in prison, and the prosecution is recommending at least 15 years.
Sentencing is set for May 20.
