On April 1 last year Sade Robinson was getting ready for a first date with Maxwell Anderson, little did she know that date would lead to her tragic death. They planned to go for a few drinks together and ended up going back to Anderson’s apartment.
Sade never made it out of Anderson’s apartment alive as prosecutors claim the very next day Anderson drove her car, with her body inside, to a country park where he cut her body up.
Maxwell Anderson, from Milwaukee, was found guilty on Friday, June 6 on all four counts of first-degree intentional homicide, dismembering a corpse, arson and hiding a corpse in connection with Sade Robinson’s death. The death shocked the local community in Milwaukee as body parts began to appear in the area.

Investigators believe Anderson killed her on their first date where they had met for drinks on April 1, 2024, dismembered her body and spread her remains around Milwaukee County. They also believe he burned her car to hide evidence.
Assistant District Attorney Ian Vance-Curzan told jurors during closing arguments Thursday afternoon that Anderson and Ms Robinson had met at a bar a week before her disappearance. Surveillance video and cellphone text and tracking records show they spent the late afternoon and early evening of April 1 drinking at two bars before going back to Anderson’s apartment.
Mr Vance-Curzan said photos on Anderson’s phone show him groping Robinson as she lay face down on his couch. The prosecutor said Ms Robinson was incapacitated at that point and could not have resisted.
Surveillance video shows her car leaving the apartment early on the morning of April 2 and arriving at a county park along the shores of Lake Michigan. There, under the cover of darkness, he cut her body into pieces, Mr Vance-Curzan said. Later that morning, he burned her car behind an abandoned building before taking a bus back to his apartment, he continued.

Anderson’s attorney, Tony Cotton, said during his closing arguments that prosecutors failed to show Anderson ever intended to kill Robinson, a key element in the first-degree intentional homicide charge. Mr Cotton also argued that nobody heard a struggle in his apartment.
Anderson never tried to conceal his identity when he boarded the bus and his clothes and shoes were clean then even though he had been supposedly dismembering a body in a muddy park, Mr Cotton added. But after the two week trial, the jury took just 45 minutes to find him guilty.
Anderson faces a mandatory life sentence in prison when he’s sentenced on August 15. “She will be forever remembered as an angel,” said Sheena Scarbrough, Ms Robinson’s mother. “She is a hero.” Speaking after the verdict she also told reporters: “It’s such a heavy weight. There’s no such thing as justice. We don’t have her.”
A GoFundMe page, which has since disabled donations, read: “Sade was a loving daughter, a cherished sister, and a dear friend to many. She was on the brink of graduating from MATC and had a promising future ahead in criminal justice, however that was cut short when she went missing suddenly on Tuesday, April 2nd.”
It added: “The pain of losing Sade has left a void in the hearts of her family, especially her grieving mother and little sister, along with other relatives, friends, and the entire community who loved and supported her. As we come together to honor Sade’s memory, we aim to provide her with the dignified farewell she deserves.”
A new GoFundMe page has been set up to raise funds for Sade’s Voice Foundation. It reads: “Sade’s Voice Foundation is a nonprofit organization operated by her family to carry out her legacy by speaking out for primarily underserved BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) individuals who are missing, murdered, or whose cases have been neglected and mishandled by media and law enforcement.”
