But prosecutors say Cardella didn’t shoot himself, because he’s a felon and didn’t want to touch a gun. So, court records show he had another man do it, in exchange for money or pain pills.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports the shooter and a friend of Cardella’s have both been sentenced to two years probation and 100 hours of community service. A charge against Cardella was dismissed.

The ex never did visit Cardella in the hospital. The prosecutor says this is “the most phenomenally stupid” case he’s seen.
