- 1:15ruled that evidence suggests she is deceased. Anderson is currently facing charges of murder,
- 1:23arson, and mutilating a corpse. His involvement came to light when it
- 1:27was discovered that he had met up with Robinson for a first date on the
- 1:32night she disappeared. The following day, she was reported missing after failing to
- 1:38show up the work at a pizza shop, which raised concerns among her colleagues.
- 1:42Her manager, Justin Romano, mentioned that her absence was unusual as they
- 1:48had been trying to reach her all day. Subsequently, the Milwaukee Fire Department
- 1:53responded to a vehicle fire where they found Robinson's burnt Honda Civic of Her.
- 2:00Ripped jeans, white shirt, and charred phone were also recovered at the scene.
- 2:06Additionally, a human leg was discovered at Warnamont Park which had been severed
- 2:10just below the hip. The leg was identified through DNA testing as belonging to
- 2:15Robinson, a nineteen year old black female with pink nail polish on her toes.
- 2:22Further remains, including a foot and what seemed to be human flesh,
- 2:25were found in various locations in Milwaukee in the following days. Body parts,
- 2:31including a leg confirmed as belonging to Robinson were found at several locations around Milwaukee
- 2:38after her disappearance. Phone records found Robinson had texted her date that she was
- 2:45feeling seafood hours before she was last seen alive. Her phone was then tracked
- 2:51to Anderson's home and a park where her leg was found. Anderson had previously
- 2:57worked for two of his father's insurance company. He had recently been working as
- 3:01a bartender, where those that knew him said he had a creepy and weird
- 3:07vibe. Anderson owns a criminal history, including charges for battery and domestic abuse.
- 3:13The alleged killer was previously a star high school football player on his varsity
- 3:17team. An examination of phone records focused on the night Robinson disappeared, revealing
- 3:23that she had initially messaged Anderson about their date, mentioning that she was feeling
- 3:30seafood. Anderson had previously worked at the restaurant, and a bartender there mentioned
- 3:36that he had come to pick up a W two form, but informed others
- 3:39that he was there for a first date. Surveillance footage captured the pair dining
- 3:44at the restaurant, and a location sharing app between Robinson and her mother indicated
- 3:50that Robinson then visited a nearby sports bar before heading to Anderson's residence in Milwaukee.
- 3:55The phone last pinged in the park where the leg was found. Investigators
- 4:00searched Anderson's home on April fourth, discovering blood on a bed and walls leading
- 4:06to his basement. As detailed in the court filing against him, several gasoline
- 4:14canisters were located in the basement, and Anderson was apprehended later that day during
- 4:18a traffic stop. Authorities stated on Friday that they were still probing a motive
- 4:24for the alleged murder, with the remainder of Robinson's remains still missing. Anderson
- 4:30is presently being held on a five million dollars bail. During a press conference,
- 4:35Milwaukee County Assistant District Attorney Ian Vance Kurzen mentioned that Anderson had gone to
- 4:43great lengths to eliminate any evidence of Robinson. The details outlined in this complaint
- 4:49lead the complainant to believe that the defendant deliberately killed and then dismembered Robinson in
- 4:56an attempt to conceal the murder, and this took place between the time of
- 5:00arrival at the defendant's residence and his departure from the Warnemont Park area. The
- 5:05complaint concluded Robinson was scheduled to graduate from Milwaukee Area Technical College and had aspirations
- 5:13of pursuing a career in criminal justice, as per a GoFundMe page. On
- 5:17the other hand, Anderson identified himself as a bartender on social media. Although
- 5:23his previous employers listed online were two insurance companies established by his father, he
- 5:30was reportedly designated as a manager at a new Berlin, Wisconsin, branch of
