Milwaukee transgender woman homicide trial; jury selection underway

MILWAUKEE – Jury selection will resume Tuesday morning, June 4, as well as opening statements, for the trial for the man charged with shooting and killing a transgender woman in Milwaukee.

After more than a year, Cordell Howze’s homicide trial was set to begin Monday, June 3.

Howze was charged with killing 31-year-old Cashay Henderson and setting her apartment on fire.

“I’ve talked to him about what would be valid defenses, what would be appropriate defenses to present to the jury, and talked with him – I’ve made clear what my thoughts are,” defense attorney Stephen Sargent said.

Fire crews were called to an apartment fire at 29th and Villard in February of last year.

Inside, they found Henderson’s body.

Two days later, police up in the Fox Valley were involved in a slow-speed chase.

Inside the car – Howze.

The Neenah man was charged with first-degree intentional homicide, felony gun possession and arson.

According to the criminal complaint, Howze told his friend, “I caught the body of a disgusting (expletive) tran.” His friend knew this to mean Howze had killed a transgender person.

The friend also said Howze showed a video that appeared to show a dead woman with blood on her head and an aquarium with a snake in it, like that found in Henderson’s apartment.

Howze’s mother told investigators he gave her a Gucci purse and Rolex, that investigators say belonged to Henderson.

Howze initially pleaded not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect, but that was rejected by the court after two doctors examined Howze.

Monday morning, the parties went over some pretrial issues.

“I’m asserting my innocence,” Howze said.

The state said ballistic and DNA testing done was, but in large, was inconclusive. But all reports were turned over to the defense, along with case files from Howze’s arrest in the Fox Valley.

A panel of 17 women and 18 men were empaneled for the jury selection process.

The trial is expected to go into next week.

Travelers see shorter lines at Milwaukee Mitchell despite the ongoing partial government shutdown

MILWAUKEE — Despite a partial government shutdown causing long TSA lines at airports across the country, travelers at Milwaukee Mitchell airport are experiencing short wait times ahead of spring break.

John Wahlen and his colleague Joe Orendorf were coming back home from North Carolina and prepared for a much different scene.

“We were remarkably surprised that it was as easy as it was,” Wahlen said.

A national TSA spokesperson told TMJ4 that over 3,450 TSA officers called out across the country on Thursday. The national call-out rate was at 11.83% percent, the highest since the shutdown began.

While the TSA could not provide specific numbers for Milwaukee Mitchell, the airport was not in the top-10 for call-out rates.

The highest percentages of call-offs came from much larger airports, including George Bush Intercontinental in Houston at 44 percent, Atlanta at almost 41 percent, and Baltimore at 37 percent.

“We were in smaller airports, Raleigh-Durham, I think we waited for two people, and one of them was him,” Orendorf said.

A spokesperson for Milwaukee Mitchell told TMJ4 that around 11,000 people are expected this Friday and Saturday, and next Friday and Saturday as spring break travel peaks.

President Trump signed an executive order to pay TSA agents, meaning a resolution may be on the horizon. Travelers, including Selena Mauricio, said they are thankful for the agents who are still showing up.

“Their jobs aren’t easy, and I commend the ones that still come to work, definitely,” Mauricio said.
