On August 1, 2015 Glendale Police Officer Eric Guse received a call about a carjacking that would change his life.

The dash cam in his squad car captured most of it: The black Porsche racing from Glendale to Milwaukee, the driver crashing the car and running onto a playground, Guse running after him followed by puffs of smoke from the shootout. Officer Guse was grazed, and the driver, Deandre Wise, shot in the leg. This is Deandre Wise’s sentencing hearing.

A Sentencing Hearing was produced by Emily Forman with editor Celeste Wesson for Precious Lives , WNOV & WUWM.
