Shot by William F. Vollbrecht, 32, the former boyfriend of a woman Christopher was dating.

William Vollbrecht traveled to Cadott from North Dakota, where he had been working, and went first to his former girlfriend’s home. He fired a shot outside her home and then went on to Christopher Farmer’s residence. After shooting him in the neck, William struggled with his former girlfriend. According to authorities, when sheriff’s deputies arrived at the scene they found him choking her.

A jury convicted William Vollbrecht of first-degree intentional homicide and armed burglary and acquitted him of one count of strangulation/suffocation. He was sentenced to life in prison, with eligibility to petition for extended supervision after twenty-five years.
