It’s life in prison with the possibility of parole for the young man who killed a Dane County jogger back in 2020.
A judge yesterday sentenced Riley Berg to life behind bars. Berg will have a chance at parole starting in 30 years. Police say Berg shot, then slashed the throat of Navy veteran Nicholas Day while Day was jogging along a rural Dane County road back in 2020. Investigators say it was an extremely brutal homicide.
Berg pleaded guilty after years of competency hearings, but he has never offered an explanation as to why he killed Day.
