Chase Alan Fleischauer, a 19-year-old from New Richmond, Wisconsin, died on April 14, 2018, from a gunshot wound to the head at his father Kayle Alan Fleischauer’s home. Initial statements by the father said Chase had shot himself after drinking, but the investigation and trials unfolded differently.

Authorities presented evidence that Chase had been severely beaten before being shot; DNA, firearms, and fingerprint analyses were performed by the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Forensic Sciences. The St. Croix County Sheriff’s Office, New Richmond Police Department, Ramsey County Medical Examiner and Wisconsin State Patrol investigated with assistance from New Richmond EMS. Kayle Fleischauer was charged and tried twice, with a first conviction overturned for juror misconduct and a second trial also resulting in a guilty verdict for second-degree reckless homicide while armed. He was also convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm and was reported sentenced to 22 years in prison plus 15 years extended supervision.

Does anyone have additional information about Chase’s last known movements or the events at the residence that night?
