Amherst standoff suspect

Five individuals, Edward Deyo, Thomas Decarlo, Brodee Voelker, Brandon Laux, and Chrissy Miller, have been charged with aiding a felon after a standoff involving Jeffrey Miller, who was wanted for attempted homicide for shooting at a Sauk County deputy. The standoff occurred in Amherst and lasted nearly 24 hours, during which Miller reportedly fired at law enforcement. Miller was later found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, leading to a transition of the case into a death investigation. Surveillance revealed that Deyo had transported Miller to his residence, where all five suspects were arrested. If convicted, they each face up to ten years in prison. Court proceedings are ongoing, with initial appearances scheduled for August 5.
