GREEN BAY, Wis. — A Green Bay man will spend 24 years in prison for killing a person he initially claimed broke into his house.
Owen Backus is also sentenced in Brown County Court to 10 years on extended supervision for second-degree intentional homicide.
Backus choked Michael Hubbard to death in a Western Avenue residence back in December of 2023.
Backus initially told police that Hubbard had broken into the residence, but changed his story several times during questioning.
