Logan Kruckenberg-Anderson was found guilty of the 2021 murder of his newborn baby, a jury ruled on Wednesday, November 5. After eight days of trial in Green County Circuit Court, the jury went into deliberation around 1 p.m. and came back about two hours later with a guilty verdict on both counts: first-degree intentional homicide and move, bury or hide the corpse of a child.

In January 2021, Kruckenberg-Anderson, then 16, and his girlfriend, then 14, had a child in secret. According to the investigation, which included two confessions, Kruckenberg-Anderson put baby Harper, just hours old, into his backpack and walked across Albany into a nearby woods. It was there the child, naked, was placed on the ground and shot twice in the head, then intentionally covered in snow. The infant, named Harper, was found days later by investigators.

A Wisconsin man who fatally shot his newborn daughter and left her body in the snow has been sentenced, but the case is still not over.

Logan Kruckenberg Anderson, 21, was 16 years old when his then-teenage girlfriend gave birth to a baby girl in 2021. Days after the baby's birth in a bathtub, Kruckenberg Anderson put the baby in a backpack, brought her out to the woods, and covered her naked body with snow. As he walked away, he heard her crying, so he turned around and shot her twice in the head.

On Nov. 5, 2025, Kruckenberg Anderson was convicted of first-degree intentional homicide and hiding the corpse of a child.

On Monday, Kruckenberg Anderson was in court to hear his sentence. According to online court records, he was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of supervised release after 45 years for the intentional homicide charge. He was also sentenced to four years in prison plus an additional three years of extended supervision for hiding the baby's corpse, a sentence that will run concurrently and includes 1,891 days of credit for time served.

According to the court docket, the defense filed a motion to dismiss, which prosecutors have 120 days to respond to. In the meantime, Kruckenberg Anderson was remanded to the custody of the Green County Sheriff's Department and ordered not to have any contact with the mother of his child.

I would agree to dismiss the case if he could be castrated while awake and his balls are shoved down his throat and the shaft is cemented into his asshole.
