19-year-old Sade Robinson was found dead inside her firebombed vehicle with her leg dismembered back on April 2, 2024 following a missing persons report that was filed by her loved ones who had been sending her texts with no response. The last time she was seen was the day prior before going out on a date with a white man, 33-year-old Maxwell Anderson. BOSSIP has followed the case and all surrounding developments closely since that time and this week Anderson will stand trial for the charge of first-degree intentional homicide.
According to Fox6Now, Robinson’s family is still processing the depths of their grief as they prepare to endure all the gory details of Sade’s death via lawyers and witness testimony.
“She had the most angelic glow, aura around her,” said Robinson’s mother, Sheena Scarbrough. “This is so difficult because we want our baby in the physical realm and she did not deserve to be taken like this.”
Sade’s father Carlos Robinson spoke about the anger that he is still feeling when asked what justice will look like for him in this case.
For me it’s impossible for our justice system to justify this, because of what was done. If you do something like this, you deserve the same punishment I feel. Justice for me would be him getting the same thing he did unto him, and to add to that it would be fulfilling if I was the one to do it.
This reaction is not only reasonable to feel, it speaks to the intense frustration that Americans are currently feeling about the gross injustice that many have suffered in various parts of society from health insurance, to housing, to police violence, to criminal activity. This frustration is leading many, like Rodney Hinton Jr., to take justice into their own hands.
According to Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel (JSOnline), the 2-week trial is likely to reveal information that was previously unknown like exactly how Sade Robinson died and why Maxwell Anderson chose to commit such a heinous crime against an innocent young girl. JSOnline also notes that finding an impartial jury may prove to be a challenge for both sides of the argument but particularly for the defense as this case has been highly publicized in the Milwaukee area.
Circuit Court Judge Laura Crivello has asked that anywhere from 60 to 70 potential jurors be vetted when normally only 30 to 40 would be in play. BOSSIP will continue covering the proceedings closely over the next two weeks and will provide more information as it becomes publicly available.
