OSHKOSH - A Menasha man who shot and killed another man outside a Neenah saloon in 2019 was sentenced Friday to 40 years in prison.
Casey Cameron, 38, of Menasha, was convicted in February of multiple charges in the death of Kevin Hollywood Hein, who was shot and killed Oct. 14, 2019, outside the Short Branch Saloon in Neenah.
Cameron pleaded no contest to one count of felony murder and six counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety. Winnebago County Judge Scott Woldt sentenced Cameron to a total of 40 years in prison and 15 years of supervision.
Wisconsin s felony murder law allows prosecutors to charge someone if they cause another person s death while committing another felony, in this case, armed robbery, regardless of their intent.

OSHKOSH, Wis. (AP) A Wisconsin man who killed a bar patron after robbing the place was sentenced Friday to 40 years in prison.
Casey Cameron, 38, pleaded no contest to felony murder-armed robbery and six counts of reckless endangerment in the October 2019 robbery of a Neenah bar and killing of Kevin “Hollywood” Hein. In exchange for his plea, which wasn t an admission of guilt but was treated as such for sentencing purposes, prosecutors reduced the original first-degree intentional homicide charge Cameron faced.
