A Milwaukee woman has been jailed for 11 years for killing the man that prosecutors said had sex trafficked her as a teenager.

The sentence, issued on Monday, ends a six-year legal battle for Chrystul Kizer, now 24, who had argued she should be immune from prosecution.

Kizer was charged with reckless homicide for shooting Randall Volar, 34, in 2018 when she was 17. She accepted a plea deal earlier this year to avoid a life sentence.

Volar had been filming his sexual abuse of Kizer for more than a year before he was killed.

Kizer said she met Volar when she was 16, and that the man sexually assaulted her while giving her cash and gifts. She said he also made money by selling her to other men for sex.

    I feel like, if this was Texas… there would be no punishment for her. She was severely wronged and he was clearly a danger to society. He had multiple victims. The police had evidence and released him. If he had been in jail, if he had been in custody and not roaming around free, he’d still be alive if that was oh, so fucking important.

    I’m going to say it louder for the people in the back. They found proof of multiple victims. They knew he did it, he was let go. The “legal” system failed not only Chrystul, but the surrounding community.

      Excellent grounds to start a lawsuit. Not a murder, though.

          She could’ve sued the man himself. She could also sue the courts and, yes, the pigs. All in civil court, but with the right lawyers she could’ve secured a bag.

          Now she’ll be in jail instead.
