NO LAPTOP FOR MURDER SUSPECT: Judge Denies Request in Sade Robinson Case
A person from Milwaukee who is suspected of murdering and dismembering Sade Robinson was denied special access to a laptop while he was incarcerated by a magistrate.
The verdict regarding Maxwell Anderson was made by the judge in Milwaukee County after a brief hearing that took place on Wednesday morning.
According to the claims made by the prosecution, Anderson and Robinson had their first date on April 1st. Someone discovered her leg the following day in Warnimont Park, which is located beside Lake Michigan. Since then, additional remains that are thought to belong to Robinson have been discovered in Milwaukee County and another location in Illinois.

The defendant has the right to view any evidence or discovery that has been made. In court on Wednesday, the legal team representing Anderson stated that for the time being, there is approximately a “terabyte” of information for them to examine.
“The only goal we have here is just to make sure that discovery can be viewed as seamlessly as possible in order to prevent further delays,” said Anthony Cotton, who is representing Anderson in this matter.
After consulting with the correctional facility to evaluate what special access to a computer may entail, the judge stated that he came to the conclusion that it might result in complications.
“Other inmates could, certainly would, learn about this, and that could create some downstream complications,” stated Judge Mark Sanders in his ruling. “So I think on balance, while it might be slightly more efficient, that the institutional concerns outweigh giving Mr. Anderson a computer, so I’m going to deny that request.”
Instead, the defense has stated that they will employ hard drives, which is something that is generally done for inmates. At this time, Anderson is being detained in custody on a bond of five million dollars. He is being charged with first-degree intentional homicide, mutilation of a corpse, and arson.
